I don't want to see Harrison not be able to complete and entry pass to Ayton

Then I suggest you skip this one, and pretty much every game until Booker gets back or the Suns make a trade.

I would like to see Ayton score, rebound, and block many times this game.

Shaq's a great defender and I'd love for us to find some kind of role for him but Okobo just has a better presence out there as a PG. And even if we let JJ handle the ball and run some offense, I feel better about Okobo off the ball as a 3pt shooter.

Okobo is going to far outplay his draft position. Love that kid. But I hope we're not feeding him to the wolves.

We're not. We're feeding him to the Trailblazers.

How can they justify not broadcasting these games on TV? It's 2018. I suspect it has something to do with being unable to avoid the crowd shots. The ones I saw of the Kings game were something.

It was even worse during the Breakers game. It sounded cavernous in there. I am pretty sure there were more Suns fans at the open practice and half the fans in the seats were Breakers fans.

On a side note, I am slightly tempted to go down there tonight. I'll be near downtown and might get bored with what I have going on to end up going the game.

How did you get them? I don't want to watch from the upper decks and I don't want to watch for more than $10.

Sorry just saw this! It was through their special College Pass thing, where they release tickets last minute. They also have sunsgamedaypass.com though for non-students. I don’t know what the prices are for that though.

Mark it down. Anyone want to wager that Lillard shoots a left hand floater tonight?
