AD hasn't been fully right so far this season
Yes the Lakers on a 6 game win streak but Bron has been playing 40mpg

I personally think he trying to get wins so they don't have to be playing for much late on and can do their player management thing to make sure they are as healthy as possible

Split will obviously have a decent pulse on the Jazz. I think their play might be legit especially if Conley is back healthy

I think they’re a legit regular season team...I’m not so sure they will be as good in the playoffs. They don’t have a lot of perimeter defense, they rely too much on running everyone off the line and Rudy bailing them out at the rim. That’s why Houston was always a problem for them, they’d just isolate on their poor perimeter defenders. They also drew Rudy away from the rim, which teams will do in the playoffs.

Right now their offense is clicking because they take and make a ton of 3s. Teams might be able to slow that down in the playoffs. Do we really trust Donovan Mitchell to be able to get them bucket after bucket when it matters? If he’s the bubble version against Denver, then ya, they might be scary. But, come playoff time, I still think they’re in tier 2 with us and Denver. Probably top of tier 2, but they’re not on the same level as the LA teams.

I don't think we can use injuries and adjustments as a caveat to our record or try to remove those factors when projecting the rest of the season. It's going to continue to be a wild year. We might see a slump from Booker/Paul post all-star game. We might see someone get COVID. We might see a tough stretch trying to squeeze in the postponed games. Kaminsky might demand a trade.

All I'm saying is that we will continue to have a crazy season. Our current record is based on resiliency. Our future record will be based on the team's growth or struggles with the continued craziness.
NOOOO!!!
Whom does he want to trade?
Probably half of this site if he saw our post history.
Hell, with his sense of humor half the posts on here *about* him, might *be* him!

With two games to go before the half way mark the Suns are on pace for a 44–48 win season. Right where the majority of us thought they would be at the start of the season. This season has been so much fun to watch. How many of you have your own special dance you do after a tough Suns win? Don’t lie to me. You know you do it.

538 projects the Suns to win 47 games, which would be an outstanding season.

We put a stripper pole in the living room for the sole purpose of me celebrating Suns wins. My wife loves it. I tend to get worn out and sleep well from the exercise.

And does everyone remember when we lost 5 out of 6 games in January? That seems like 6 months ago.

I don't need no highfalutin' equipment like that. I just twerk around my living room after every win. (The wife does NOT love it.)

My big move is a cross between a boxer practicing on their punching bag and a monkey with their arms up flailing away. Not even my wife is allowed to see that.

We’ve hit my prediction of 48 wins with 5 games still to play. Wow. I gladly admit I was wrong to doubt the CP3 trade.

Ha. I remember there was a lot of grumbling early on. But like some of us predicted, they figured it out. Just took a little time.
