Game Day: Suns (14-10) @ Thunder (23-1), Wed 12/10/25

Post by Superbone »

Time: 5:30 pm AZ (4:30 pm PT/7:30 pm ET)
Place: Paycom Center, Oklahoma City, OK
TV: Prime Video

Oh, boy. Our reward for doing so well in Cup play is we get to play the nearly flawless OKC Thunder again on their home court. Probably without Booker. Definitely without Jalen Green. All we can do is play our best basketball with who is available and hope both teams have fun.

I, for one, do NOT hope that OKC has fun tonight.

Interesting that Book might play. Would be helpful to have him, but I worry that he'll risk re-injuring his poor Jenner-worn groin. This one is probably an L either way, so maybe just sit this one out, Book?

I hope he's not coming back just because it's a Cup game.

I wonder if Livers' injury is worse than a strain

The great thing is that we know that the team will compete.
I’ve loved watching this version of our Suns.
Undermanned due to injury but making every team work for their points.
I’m really interested to see what this develops into once we have arguably the two best players on the team actually playing and getting some chemistry together which will at the same time give us an even better bench.
What we do in life, echoes in eternity.

Seems like a Cup game would be the best time to return from a groin strain. At least you have protection.

This is a blatant dodge from your undeniable fixation on OKC, much like Mori’s legendary infatuation with GSW. ;)

Book's in the video here getting shots up but not sure what part of practice/shootaround it is. I guess if we don't win tonight we don't play until the 18th? If that's the case, might as well just sit him and give him the extra week.

I think we will have a game added vs the spurs or lakers if we lose tonight…but I’m not sure when that would be.

Makes sense.

iHart being out again helps, we should be able to control the boards and have opportunities in the paint when Chet sits. I know we don't have a lot of attacking players but we should make a concerted effort to try and get to the basket when there aren't shotblockers in there. Thought we could've done a better job with that when Gobert was ejected and the Wolves didn't have that presence inside. Chet's a great shotblocker but the Thunder don't really have anyone else when he's on the bench.

Yep, there's another game and I have tickets to it as part of my 5 game season package. It is scheduled between the 12th and 16th according to the last Suns broadcast.

He's just focusing on his handles to beat the double teams tonight!
