Is there a team in the NBA the Suns
should beat? If there is, in spite of their pathetic defensive rebounding, then this Wizards team is it. The Suns have no excuses. Let's see if they make
any effort in blocking out their men for defensive rebounds tonight. Our new
savior doesn't join us until Saturday's game.

Valancuinas about to have a career high rebounding game.
There were literally jokes on social media about not letting Richards leave Phoenix the other day when they played us. We couldn't have hammered the deal out right then and there? Switch jerseys at halftime?

Okogie wasn't tradeable yet.

I figured that would be the case.

Too bad for Beal to be out vs his former team. I bet he would have lit them up otherwise.
You saw Beal come up limping a bit in the other game, and you just knew he'd suffered yet another nagging injury. The guy is a pretty darn good player whose body is just made of glass. It's too bad.

Yeah that Beal ankle sprained didn’t look good. Props to him for playing through it but his ass can sit for couple games, we gonna lose anyways.

We surely won’t lose to Washington, right? Right?!

Washington is one of the few teams with a worse defense than us…I predict we look great tonight

Of course we will. And don't call me Shirley.

Looking forward to a tie game with 6 minutes left in the 4th.

Firmly in the "actively hoping we lose every game so our FO will give up and trade KD" mindset these days.

Nah it'll just make our owner that much more desperate for Jimmy.

Yeah, it’ll likely only make them more and more desperate for Jimmy and surrender even more assets in the process.

I hope so. I need something to be interested in while I'm working thru the night, lol.

We won’t blow it up mid-season. Best case scenario for me is we miss the playoffs, Houston wins the lottery with our pick and they give it to us for KD on draft night. We draft Cooper Flagg and go from there.
