Game Day: Suns (12-9) @ Lakers (15-4), Mon 12/1/25

Post by Superbone »

Time: 8:00 pm AZ (7:00 pm PT/10:00 pm ET)
Place: Crypto.com Arena, Los Angeles, CA
TV: peacock

Ryan Dunn is back. Just missing Green and Livers now. Lakers are playing 2nd game of a home back-to-back having defeated the Pelicans Sunday night. We will have the center battle of Williams vs Ayton in this one. Doncic has been on a tear and hillbilly Kobe is at the top of his game as well while Booker has been struggling as of late. Tonight would be a good night for him to get back on track.

You gotta put Dunn on Luka defensively here, right?

Refs will give Dunn 2 fouls before tip off. I don't expect them to let Dunn actually guard Luka.

For some reason I don't think the Lakers are as good as their record.

Who gets a better whistle, Luka, Reaves or LeBron?

I agree. I think they're vulnerable and we can beat these paper tigers. We're mostly healthy; let's stick it to them and put a 5th loss on the purple 'n' piss.

Reaves has the best whistle of the 3, he's getting treated like the other 2 despite being, ya know, not them.

Fair, that seems to track with my own observations.

When do the Suns start getting the benefit of the whistle on defense like OKC does?

On a programming note, last time when the game was listed as on Peacock only, it was also on NBC Sports on my YouTubeTV. This game looks to be the same.

Yeah, peacock is mostly just something they can charge for to shows nobody watches. It'll most likely be on nbc sports too.

Looks like Allen is out again. He's ill. Can't catch a break.
