What did Arizona sports do to deserve the curse that looms over this city???

 

[carrrnuttt]

Do the Suns practice near any power stations?

 

[JRakes]

Relax…at least he won’t pick up any more T’s lol…..time for green to earn his keep.

I wouldn’t be surprised if that man gets one from the bench.

Probably building over ancient native lands and then some

That would put him around the 3rd week of March at the earliest or the week of April 6 at the latest. The play-in starts on April 14 and the playoffs begin on April 18

That's much better than I expected to be honest.

I'm just glad it's his left and not his right.

Suns may not make it to the playoffs without Brooks. Especially, if Jalen doesn't show up in a big way consistently.

If Highsmith could get healthy he would help but without Brooks, it will be a tough road.

O'Neale and Dunn disappeared against Portland.

Dunn has been absent most of the Season and O'Neale needs others to set him up.

 

[taz02]

I don't think we should read too much into the Portland game. Everything was out of wack.

 

[Yuma]

I heard today on Burns and Gambo, 4-6 week timeline.

As I mentioned earlier, free agent FC Chris Boucher would help the Suns if they could add him.

With the injuries I'm reading a lot into that game. Not that I'm overly upset by it, I recognize that we are undermanned and severely outmatched most nights right now. And with Collin's hand and Dillon's hand and Green, Booker and Goodwin battling leg injuries, I see the writing on the wall and it says we're going to lose more often than not until we get some injured players back.

But to me, this team has overachieved and given us reason to hope for the future regardless of how the next few months play out.

It reminds of the quote that goes something like, "the light that shines brightest only lasts half as long."

A similar comment was used in the original Blade Runner movie.
