Suns are currently on a season high five game losing streak. They are beat up and they are getting beat up in fourth quarters. It doesn't get any easier tonight against the scrappy Raptors and Suns' nemesis Brandon Ingram.

11 games and 3 weeks until the season is over. As I said in another thread the plan should be to get people healthy and get some of our rookies experience. If we can maintain our playoff position then hopefully get to the 1st round and see what we can do against the Spurs. I think I'm more worried about 1 game against the Clippers than a series against the Spurs. And now that I think about it I think we could have some fun with the Thunder too.

Edit: I just saw we have clinched the postseason. So we could lose all the rest of the games and still be in the play-in. That actually isn't a bad position to be in.

Good to know, JJ. I agree with you. Let's just concentrate on getting healthy and playing the young guys.

I don't think Book is fully healthy. I know he wants to play through it but I hope he makes better decisions going forward. Yesterday he did everything backwards. He gave up open shots early and then shot mid rangers late in the game when we had a bunch of wide open three point shooters and we were behind 3.

Highsmith being out all these games is concerning.

[ShelC]

When he got here I thought he wasn't supposed to play the rest of the year but instead work towards next season.

I'd also be willing to bet Allen will need knee surgery but hopefully he can manage the injury thru the end of the season.

We are going lose by 30.
