The schedulers didn’t do us any favors here.

I freaking hate Luka and the Mavs, almost as much as I hate the Lakers. And they're playing well to start the season. This game could get rough, a back-to-back on the road after traveling at the end of a late night.

I expect Luka and his tall friends to bully the Suns in the paint. Suns need to keep consistent defensive effort for any shot to win.
Love, Hurts.

Hard to make a case for the Suns objectively but let’s hope for more than 1.5 quarters of good play. Go Suns!

I'd expect Oso to see more minutes since Lively is an athletic, active big but not as big/strong as AD. He's gotta be given minutes in these kinds of matchups. And with Dunn and Royce, we shouldn't see Beal or Book on Luka at all. Let them chase around Kyrie and Klay. Gotta pick your poison there.

Brad Beal is apparently a game time decision. We are so back.

When was the last time the Suns played well when it was a game dedicated to someone? Feels like they've been blown off the court the last few times.

Nurk was pretty good last season. What happened?

I'm afraid this team is cooked. Monte, Gillespie, Lee, Book and Plumlee as a 5. What are we even doing? Is Bud this lost this early in the year?
