This Thunder team is pretty good. Might be a tough one tonight. Allen and Dunn remain out along with Jalen Green while Jalen Williams will make his season debut for the Thunder.

This game could get really, really ugly. OKC has just been clowning the league so far, and we're injured, and they're not.

I just want to see the guys hustle, and not put their heads down if they get down by 15-20 points. Play the rooks if necessary, give ManMan and Fleming some run, if it gets out of hand.

The Thunder are crazy good, but I think we're going to keep this competitive, and I think the tournament hypes some of our younger guys up more than theirs, so I think we have a really good shot of pulling this one out.

I really hope we can keep it competitive. However, I feel like I can already see OKC running away with it by the 4th quarter if not sooner. They are just so deep and good. I was just thinking about how Ott might strategize against them tonight but if you plug one hole, another one bursts open. They are just extremely hard to contain.

This going to be a game where you just want to turn it off after the 1st quarter. This is going to be baaaad.


Dillon Brooks is absolutely going to foul out. Probably mark Williams too. Booker is going to shoot a tour date, I’m thinking 5/21.


We are allowing go be murder tomorrow as well. *sigh*

Suns by 6. It's like none of you have watched the Suns this season. It's sad so many think it's going to be a landslide loss.

No Hartenstein for the Thunder tonight, Livers is questionable, Allen is doubtful.

Others have already said so, but the upcoming stretch for us is absolutely brutal. OKC, Denver, Lakers, Rockets, Wolves, Warriors, Warriors, Lakers. That is an absolutely nasty 8-game stretch. I don't think we have a single game against a lesser opponent until Dec 26 against the Pelicans. We'll see what we're made of after this stretch. I'm so happy with how we have played this season but I still fear that by Christmas we may be in a different place.

If they take 3 or 4 of those I'll be happy

We're actually playing them pretty well so far. Royce O'Neale is bricking several shots but Book looks like he has his focus tonight. Need to start hitting some 3s if we want a chance, though.

I love it! These Suns are not giving up. OKC has gone on some little runs but then we come back and answer them. Currently Sun 35, OKC 33. Goodwin has been a real defensive pest, and my man BOUYEA has 9 (!!) points already.

OKC head coach has the shittiest haircut I've ever seen.
