Game Day: Kings (30-22) @ Suns (31-22), Tues 2/13/24

Post by Superbone »

Time: 8:00 pm AZ (7:00 pm PT/10:00 pm ET)
Place: Footprint Center, Phoenix, AZ
TV: AZ Family 3TV, TNT

The Suns need this one to tie the season series with the Kings with two games remaining in the series. Also, a win would help to wash the stink off of our previous last second loss to the Warriors. One more game on Wednesday against the Pistons before the all-star break. It would be nice to enter the break with these two wins.

This is a pretty important game for seeding purposes - win and we have a handy little break on the Kings, lose and they are right there with us. Let’s make it a win - relatively comfortable would be nice!

The Kings haven't been playing consistently well lately, especially Fox who's had some rough shooting games. They still have a few guys that can instantly get hot so hopefully the Suns are ready to play defense. It would also be nice to not get killed on the glass since both teams have similar rebounding numbers.

I'm going with my boys to the game. Looking forward to seeing the Suns win.

Scared that we'll let Fox go wild for 40+ points. We always seem to give the other team's best perimeter player a career night.

Let's hope I can affect the game play in a positive way in the Suns favor.

Looking for a bounce back game
Haven't even commented on the GS game but I'm sure they're still annoyed about that L

Liked how Royce looked on D and glad to hear he was vocal already. Thinks he's more settled on O tonight and knocks down some shots also

I'm far more concerned with Barnes/Murray/Huerter/Monk shooting a combined 50%+ from 3-point range.

Yesterday I almost made a comment about not hearing dumbass Reggie Miller for a while, but I didn't want to jinx it.

Turns out jinx's are bullshit. Who knew?

KD remind anyone of Jamaal Wilkes? His jumper is absolutely unblockable.

Beal pulled a hammy going for a loose ball, went to the bench and then headed to the lockerooom.

KD rebounds and clearly has Allen for the outlet pass on the wing but decides to walk it up into a PnR turnover. :roll:

I'm just gonna stop expecting any defense to be played. Probably best for my sanity.

The Suns shot 68% including 80% on 3's and still trail after the first quarter.

The defense has to improve drastically over what we just saw.

I have a bad feeling about this game. No defense and the Suns are now trying to figure out a rotation without Beal.
