Place: Ball Arena, Denver, CO

Been a while so let me give this a crack

The Phoenix Suns travel to Denver to face the 3rd seed Nuggets who however are just 4-3 in the 7 games since All Star break. Literally alternating games W L W L W L W so obviously tonight should be an L

There's that other "little" story of Suns coming off their biggest 4th quarter comeback in franchise history. Which was sparked by Gillespie who actually called Denver home and will be very comfortable in this arena.

Will he get to feature again ?
Can we actually build on last game ?

And......
The Joker is Iffy for tonight

Go Suns !!!

I don’t like how close my wife and her tennis instructor, Big Jay, are. I’m not the jealous and suspicious type but the way she laughs and giggles at around him is just plain weird. Suns by 8

Maybe I'll wait until it's official whether Joker plays or not before making my crummy prediction.

It’s in stock.

We won’t beat them if Joker plays

Of course not. The game will be terminated by gunfire before the winner and loser can be determined.

Nuggets by 1…Gillespie has a massive dunk over Joker with 1 second left to give us a 2 point lead. Joker gets pissed and instead of inbounding the ball for a game winning shot, he chucks the ball at Gillespie…it careens off his head and soars into the hoop for a game winning 3 point buzzer beater…it gets credited to Westbrook as the closest nuggets player to the ball when it hits Gillespie in the head. They give Jokic two techs and eject him, but Booker misses both free throws and we lose.

Great job on the game day thread, bg. You should do it more often.

He'll be back to OUT by halftime.

He'll be back to OUT by halftime.

That's pretty conservative. The over/under is the 1st quarter.
