The Phoenix Suns are just what the doctor ordered for the recently struggling Portland Trailblazers currently on a 3 game losing streak. Chriss is doubtful and Warren and Jackson are questionable.

Go Suns!!!

Suns by 13!

I like your optimism. (And I do not share it.)

It's time to start locking up a top 6 pick. We need it.

Just for asset value, I'd really love to win the lottery and get that #1 pick. Could possibly move down(not too far) for more value in a trade.

I'm hoping to finish 5th. We'd have a decent shot to jump into the top 3 and would be almost guaranteed a top 6 pick. At 6, Doncic, Ayton, and Bagley would most likely be gone. But some combination of Trae, Bamba, Porter, and Jackson will be there, plus Bridges and Sexton. That's a decent group to pick from.

Sacramento is already starting to tank. I don't have any hopes of catching them. Atlanta and Orlando are pretty safely set ahead of us as well. Memphis is a bit of a wildcard, but I think we could finish ahead of everyone else.

A dream within the dream... can we go another level deep? How about "To win the lottery and get the #1 pick. Move down for more value in a trade, and proceed to pick the best player of this class".

Who can add another level?

BG will be back watching the Suns tonight after missing the last two games for personal reasons

Let's Go !!

Lob to Jackson for a dunk to get the first Suns basket. That's what I want to see more of.

Now let's work on the first stop, and maybe at least one more basket tonight.

Booker with 20 points already at the half!

This game is getting real ugly

Jackson denies Lillard at the rim!

We're gonna lose, but Booker closing strong

[n4th4n]

Booker went enfuego there at the end

[Split T]

43/8/6 for Booker. Scored 21 in final 8 minutes or so
