Suns play the Lakers in LA Friday night in a game meaningless to both. No Luka. No Book. Hopefully we get a big dose of Man Man, Fleming, and Dunn.

How is it meaningless to the Lakers? They're tied with Houston and only one game back of Denver with two to play, and it's still mathematically possible for them to finish with the third, fourth, or fifth seed. I guess it's meaningless if they don't care at all about their playoff position.

Definitely meaningless for us since we are locked into the 7 seed. Play the young guys and don't care who wins. 40 min for Maluach and Fleming!

[TOO]

Play the kids, that's all I ask.

We still haven't figured out the Booker - Green - Brooks lineups, so I want to see Ott try some different looks tonight. I don't personally have any easy answers.

Yeah, and F the Lakers.

It's not easy but my answer is to stagger Booker and Green. I don't think there is some big advantage to playing them at the same time.

Young guys incoming:

They didn't rest people last night in Golden State (unlike the Warriors). They're shorthanded with injuries, but their starters all played 30 minutes plus. If they don't sit a bunch of people for this back-to-back, then they're still playing like they care.

[Superbone]

I look forward to the starting center matchup of Maluach vs Ayton. At least that's my hope. Rest Williams. But seeing as he's not on the injured list, he's probably starting. Even so, Man Man should get a lot of time.
