I’ll be there, but my luck is terrible when it comes to attending Suns games.

(Reverse jinx. hopefully.)

Let’s hope for the best. I remember I met you at a Clippers/Suns games many years ago now. I think I was there with my oldest son. It was the Nash years. We do have the fact that the Clippers are playing a back to back working for us. However, it was a home and home back to back while the Suns had to travel but I assume they’ve been hanging out there since Wednesday.

I'm curious to see how Kawhi looks. They had him on a minutes restriction and he didn't look like himself, last time I checked in. Is he getting any better? They won't get far as a team without him at 100%.

They’re sitting their whole team against us. Reggie Jackson out too.

If we lose this one…

No George? No Kawhi? We're doomed! The Suns won't take the Clips seriously. Big L incoming for sure.

We don't have a chance without Ayton. Zubac is going to chew us up and spit us out.

We need the W but Monty should try and sit the starters as much as possible.

Paul looks bad but at least he's attempting to be a scoring threat.

I hope he's 100%. He did seem a step slow on a couple drives where he normally keeps the defender on his hip.

I've had to watch a lot of visiting feeds and visiting commentary lately because LP kinda sucks at options this year, but it kills me because literally every game at some point the visiting announcers talk about how much of a scoring threat Shamet is. It's as if they refuse to acknowledge the entirety of his Suns career.

Any way we can swap contracts of Shamet and Okogie?

Yeah Clippers JV playing exactly like the Suns were the past 5. Absent minded on D and a step slow.
