[Superbone]

Time: 1:30 pm AZ (12:30 pm PT/3:30 pm ET)
Place: Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse, Cleveland, OH
TV: AZ Family 3TV/NBALP

The Phoenix Suns visit the Cleveland Cavaliers Monday afternoon in the FieldHouse where the Cavs have only lost 2 games so far this season. It will be a good measuring stick to see where the Suns are at. All eyes will also be on new Sun Nick Richards who had a singular debut for the Suns in their win over Detroit on Saturday.

I have been jokingly posting "(opponent) by 20" on every Game Day thread. But honestly the Cavs probably really are going to demolish us. They're big, strong, and absolutely dominating the league this year. Even with Richards I don't think we can come even close to matching their size. I think they'll bully us all over the court and we won't have an answer. This one could get ugly.

[Cap]

This one could get ugly.

This one could get ugly? You can say that for us against any opponent. We nearly blew an 24 point lead against the Wiz. Anyone in the league can beat us by 15 in a quarter.

[ShelC]

Transition defense should be a major emphasis but ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[Split T]

6-2 since moving Dunn into the starting lineup(+3.5 point differential). It hasn’t been all smooth, but much better than the stretch before that.

I think by getting ugly he means losing by 20+

Not nearly enough = signs to be my man Big Nick's. Poor Nurk, lost his starting job, lost his minutes, even lost his Big Nurk Energy.
