This is it. Must win if we want ANY chance of getting the 8th seed. Consider this game our playoffs this year. I'll be watching this one close to real-time.

Go Suns!!!

Yeah, and then we have to beat them 3 more times. Not happening. That pathetic Kings loss caused me to totally give up on 'em for this year. I know they've been headed out of the playoffs for weeks, but I at least could hope, up until they handed one to Sacramento.

No matter what happens tonight, this team does not deserve to make it into the playoffs. They need to fail miserably, and then take a long look at the mirror recognizing how every stupid technical, every heroball posesion, every lousy 1st quarter start, lead them to this, to be in the middle of nowhere.

Every player but above all, Hornacek and McD, have to taste their own mediocrity, in order to take a step forward to fix this team from within the root.

I agree. I hated seeing all the techs and bad ball all year. I also hated Bledsoe's quote about how he's playing great and our problems weren't his fault. The leadership on this roster is garbage and I want them to sit during the playoffs and realize how far off they are from even being close to contending.

BK available, but we're still starting the big lineup and bringing BK off the bench.

Keef with 11 points on 5-6 FG in five minutes so far. Personally outscoring OKC.

About as good as we've played on both sides in a while. Coach smart to sub in TJ and to attack Kanter. Both moves paying off.

Refs are going to start calling every little thing on Phoenix. Not hard to see that one coming.

Nothing like 3 guys back and all of them guarding the three point line while letting two bigs run right to the basket.

I liked PJ throwing his arms up like wtf as he let a guy just run right by him.
