The Grizzlies (1-3) are coming off a 120-91 loss at the Lakers on Tuesday while the Suns (3-2) beat the Warriors on Wednesday 121-110 at Golden State.

Deandre Ayton (suspension) and Ty Jerome (ankle) are expected to miss this game for the Suns.

Go Suns!

I hate it when the Suns and Coyotes play on the same day and around the same time.

I like Bookers Purple shoe's. I'm not gay if anyone is wondering.

I was double checking the schedule to make sure I didn't have three games today.

My family only sees me for meals when I retreat to my media room.

If I had purple shoes I would wear them. Anything Suns. Sexual orientation has nothing to do with it.

I always wondered if the Grizzlies preferred De'Anthony Melton over than Jevon Carter in the Josh Jackson trade.

They got a good one in Morant.

Has any sort of timetable been stated for Jerome's return? I don't think so but I could have missed it.

Another thing, Kellan Olson has stepped up his Suns coverage quite a bit. He's been a better follow than Duane Rankin so far, which is disappointing in a way but also a good thing. I miss the Bordow coverage of the Triano season but Olson is definitely helping fill the hole that was present last year with just Ranking and Gina Mizell. Gina's been good but early in the season she was hyping the Athletic too much. I'm a little surprised they're still going strong considering their subscriber only model.

I Want to see him almost as bad as the Suns.

I'm just guessing but I thought Ty Jerome was said to be out a few weeks. It was posted somewhere. Something like 2-4 weeks sounds right.

My preference for Suns coverage is Olson, Rankin and Mizell in that order. I don't see much from Gambo about the Suns for some reason.

Really miss Scott Bordow. If he covered the Suns again I would be all over it. He did a great job.

I will say this. Duane Rankin has really stepped up his Suns coverage....

I would be happier without all the video stuff and the pinned tweet of Dr. J. though.

Too many pinned tweets everywhere on twitter for my liking.

I don't think I am going to subscribe to The Athletic again (received about 50% off). I'm a detail and information type person and less of the story stuff. Might try ESPN Insider next time. We shall see. With twitter, I get all the sports news I want for free.

A good follow is Mike Vigil, who is one of the hosts of The Timeline. I don't always agree with him but he posts a ton of quality Suns stuff. The videos The Timeline puts together are top notch as well so when they post one, I know it's worth watching. Here's a link for him.

Thanks. I've bookmarked it for future reference. I will check them out on twitter.

Sometimes podcasts and video, if they are too long, I tend to tune out especially if it's too opinionated. I guess that's something I need to work on.

One of the podcasts (I'm not sure who or which want) had this lady sports person on that was real negative. It was a downer for me and I didn't like that. Enjoy media that brings information and insight to the table I didn't know. When it comes to opinion, I respect the opinions on this forum probably more than anyone else.

Brandon Clarke is available tonight.

I'm sure @Chris_Sanders would be excited to see him play.

Booker hits a short jumper to start the game.

Suns lead 2-0.

 

[Mainstreet]

Baynes and Valanciunas is a lot of beef inside.

 

[Mainstreet]

This is not the same Suns team that showed up to play the Warriors. They are flat... not much defense.

Hopefully they click it in gear. Saric is tentative and out of position on one play.
