The whole team is doubtful every night. Oh, you're talking injuries while I'm talking their chances of winning. My bad.

My concern, is Dallas may try to out lose the Suns. And in a tie, the Suns own the tiebreaker.

Please make it stop.

There's no way we'll win the play in games so even if we can somehow stumble our way into one, it only delays the inevitable.


On a side note, the Suns should go ahead and waive Cody Martin. He's not going to be retained next season and they're wasting ink and data by including him on the injury reports at this point.

The way the Suns are playing, making the play-in is not an attractive option. It would just prolong the agony of this season.

However, the Suns only have two more losses. I understand the Mavericks own their own 1st round pick, so I can see losing as a preferable option for them.

So can the Suns out lose the Mavericks? What an ugly situation.

kings traded fox for draft picks - they've given up on their season - and we still won't beat 'em

As previously mentioned, Cody Martin is a good defensive player.

If he is able to play, it could mean the Suns are ratcheting up their effort to make the play-in.

So you're saying he's the equivalent of our Jimmy Butler and a 12 game winning streak is imminent? Am I understanding you correctly?

No, I'm thinking the Suns are preparing for the possibility they can't out lose Dallas and they own the tiebreaker.

I don't know. They seem to be able to lose them with the best of them.

Bud is hopeful Grayson Allen being out is a short term thing.

Dallas is putting the pressure on the Suns to keep pace, as they trail the Rockets by more than 20 points in the 3rd quarter.
