Game Day: Warriors (13-14) @ Suns (14-12), Thurs 12/18/25

Place: Mortgage Matchup Center, Phoenix, AZ
TV: AZ Family 3TV, NBALP

Warriors come to the Valley tonight in a similar slump to the Suns. Both have lost two in a row and four out of their last six. The Warriors wasted a 48 point Curry scoring night in a loss to the Blazers their last time out. Suns and Warriors will fly to San Francisco after the game and do it again on the Warriors home court on Saturday night. Grayson Allen is questionable with right knee soreness. I will be in attendance for this one.

Suns playing like a bag of dicks so far. The Oso love fest continues. Booker MIA.

Nah, he's been in a slump all year. Was also leading the league in turnovers last I checked.

How many times has Brooks done something stupid and put them in a situation like this?

True but they had no challenge so that wasn't even reviewable but they reviewed it anyway so we're getting fucked once again.

Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeew. That was intense. Hopefully Book will play better now that he said the court shorts aka groin protector shorts are off for the entire second half.

5 starters and 7 reserves for 12 players per conference. Broken down into 3 8-player teams with 16 USA players, 8 International (as their goal). Sounds a little complicated.

Western Conference Guards
Shai Gilgeous-Alexander - INT
Luka Doncic - INT
Anthony Edwards - USA
Stephen Curry - USA
James Harden - USA
Jamal Murray - USA
Austin Reaves - USA
Devin Booker - USA
De'Aaron Fox - USA

You have to figure the top vote getters at guard in the West will be SGA, Doncic, Edwards, Curry and Reaves (probable Laker fan advantage), so it will probably come down to Harden, Booker, Murray and possibly Fox.

The West will most certainly include Jokic, SGA, Doncic, Edwards, Curry, Wembanyama, Sengun, Durant, Markkanen and James (lifetime achievement award). Other froncourt candidates are Davis, who may miss out because he's missed so many games and OKC probably deserves a second player named on the team, most likely Holmgren.

So it's going to be tough for Booker to make it this year unless there's injuries.

That's seems to be the case every year. Booker is good, but he's not in the same tier as the 5 first-ballot HOFers in the West.
