[Mainstreet]

The Suns begin a seven game road trip at the Spurs on Sunday in the first of back-to-back games.

They play the Mavericks on Monday.

When: Sunday, December 4th, 2022

Television: Bally Sports Arizona

Radio: KMVP 98.7 / S: KSUN

Time: 2 pm Arizona time

If James Jones is waiting until December 15th to make a trade, the Suns will play 7 more games through that date.

Somehow the Suns lead the West by 1 game over Denver. This is likely to change after a brutal 7 game road trip.

7 game roadie… this will really show us where we are. We’ve been WAYYYYYY front loaded with home games so far this season.

Rubber is about to hit the road… figuratively and literally.

OK make the rockets bad fri taste vanish by beating the spurs and for all those Duncan yrs!!!! Lol

Fingers crossed heavily for a victory

My 420 is sad now

Suns have lost to two of the four worst teams in the NBA in the Magic and Rockets.

Can they go three out of four and lose to the Spurs?

Mikal Bridges thinks he may have hyperextended his right knee, but will get it checked out.

Good bye home sweet home this is going to be ugly

 

[Mainstreet]

If James Jones doesn't minimally strengthen the roster between December 15th and the trade deadline (also buyouts) it's going to get really tough.

The Suns can't expect an already thin roster not to wear down under the burden.

I'm especially concerned about the heavy work load on Devin Booker and the slim pickings at power forward.

I'd be very surprised if he didn't at least play a few minutes to keep his streak alive.

Mikal Bridges talks about his knee.

I believe the real date is January 15th

That's the date Ayton can be traded with his consent.

However, a lot of players signed during the summer can be traded starting December 15th.
