If they want to be a team to be reckon with, they got to beat teams like the Warriors. Or we'll end up below .500 and get bounced in the first round. Would be fantastic if we could avoid the top teams in the first round.
If the suns want any chance at the 2nd round they need to get the 5th seed. We aren’t beating OKC, Houston or Denver in a series.

If Curry goes nuts it's hard to win, no doubt. Suns have to beat the teams behind them on the standings though, most nights. That means sub .500 teams. I've been a Suns fan for nearly 40 years so I'm used to them underachieving, just have some hope that this is not one of those years.

I think they're overachieving now. A playoff berth would solidify that. The future isn't as bleak as we feared or that it appeared to be just 6-7 months ago. This will be a tough game but we are still a week or so out from getting Green back and seeing what this squad can do. I just want to see competitive basketball until then.


Crazy to think about following this team for almost 40 years, I'm at about 35 years. First season I remember is the 92-93 Barkley MVP season. I was 8. What drew you to the Suns, if you don't mind me asking.

All that really matters to me is when Green is coming back. How Green and Book would play together was the biggest question going into this season and we are now at Christmas and we still don't know.

I'm getting good vibes from Jalen Green. I think the Booker-Green combo will work fine if he stays healthy.

However, the Suns are going to be awfully small most nights putting their best five players on the court.

That just means the other guys need to do their jobs.

But I bet on the suns to win, so they will probably lose knowing my record.
