The Suns fly to Cleveland for the start of a 4 game Eastern road trip. The Big 3 may be back together as Booker is now listed as probable for this one while Gordon, Okogie, and Little are all out. The Cavaliers are currently third in the East but lost last night to the Nets.

Cleveland is without Mitchell and Mobley, but are still a good team with Garland running things.

They lost to the Nets last night…this should be a must win seeing as our next game is at Boston and is likely a loss.

Could we maybe get a blowout and give a guy like KD some rest? No Mitchell, no Strus, no Mobley, no Dean Wade(!).

Probably not. Wishful thinking. Do they keep stats on number of blowouts? My bet is we are close to the bottom of the league in that stat too. Fits in with our 4th quarter performances stat.

You can view our record in double digit games, which is 20-10, so we’ve won 20 games by at least 10 points. I checked for 15 point games and we’ve won 11 of those. When does it become a blowout? We’ve won 6 by 20+

Thanks. I'd say 20+ for a blowout. 6 is about double of what I would have guessed for us. 2 or 3 would have been my guess.

Here they are:

A 22 point win over Utah in October

A 21 point win over Memphis(final game of IST qualifiers)

A 21 point win over Portland on New Years

A 23 point win over Dallas in January

A 28 point win over Washington in February.

Also I miscounted…it’s just 5

Gonna get to at least watch the 1st half Live
Want to see the ball movement continue

Would love if as with KD, we see couple new wrinkles with Book getting screens off the ball still having Beal out top initiate

But yeah
Lots of good from Celtics game so let's maintain the level and deal with these guys.

Someone mentioned that we're missing March Book as he usually turns it up
I think he also has a tendency to look very sharp after being out injured so.....

Let's Go !!

Really cool watching the other team takes 3s while we step in for middies.

Why the fuck are Nurkic and Eubanks dropping against Garland for the entire quarter?

So many wide open 3s for the Cavs. Suns allow 41 points in the first quarter. Pathetic.
