Game Day: Hornets (13-35) @ Suns (24-24), Tues 1/24/23

Post by Superbone »

Time: 7:00 pm AZ (6:00 pm PT/9:00 pm ET)
Place: Footprint Center, Phoenix, AZ
TV: BSAZ, NBALP

The Hornets come to town with a damaged stinger. Ball is questionable, Cody Martin doubtful and Kelly Oubre is out. Meanwhile, the Suns are starting to get healthier although Ayton remains out with a non-covid illness. Paul and Johnson will be in the starting lineup.

Welp being as I live in NC, obviously have a ton of friends and family who are Hornets fans lol. Actually going with a couple of said friends to a bar tonight to watch this one. They want the Hornets to lose every game so they can get the first pick. I don't really go with the tanking theory for the teams I watch but to each their own.

The way we have been playing lately, we should win this one going away. No win is guaranteed of course, but I will be highly disgusted tbh if we lose tonight.

Hornets have the second-worst record in the East, just barely ahead of the clearly tanking Pistons. So in theory this is a very winnable game for us. I just want to see everybody getting healthy and playing hard; is that so much to ask?

Wemby to the Hornets would be a dream, keeps him out of the hands Pels, Rockets and Spurs, then I’m all for it.

So you're saying there's a chance? Maybe he's on the mend and will be a game time decision.

The Hornets stink so I believe the Suns will play down to their opponents.

Wow...pretty much getting whatever we want on offense, CamJ a perfect 6-6 with 4 threes and two really nice midrange shots. He looks phenomenal.

Dario and Jock playing well together off the bench that's helped build the lead up.

It's so crazy this team just doesn't miss Ayton when he's out. Bismack Mutombo has got it covered.
