A loss tonight drops us down two spots, from fifth to third worst. Let's get it done boys.

ESPN game. X-rays on Booker are negative. We hold him out as a precautionary measure, and the national buzz is that we're already tanking.

I happen to be in Phoenix for the night and may try and go to this one. Should be a real gem of a game.

I think it might actually be tough to lose this one against the lowly Mavs at home even without Booker.

I want to agree, but we are only one game better than them.

I just hope our PGs don't let Smith go off for a breakout game.

Luckily, we have stocked the position with defensive stalwarts... :)

I feel like our dumb team will find some way to win this game, since that isn't what they need to do. TJ will go off for 38 points or something, Len will give us 18 rebounds; Ulis will decide to show up.

No going to the game for me, but I did see Suns legend Danny Granger at my Scottsdale lunch spot today.
