suns squarely in 7th position which is dope but the play-in begins with the 7th seed in the playoffs and i don't want to play an extra series to make the real playoffs meaning my goal for this season is 6th seed or bust baby

one or more above us must fall - idc if they drop due to our greatness or if it's self inflicted but our schedule isn't going to be as rough in january - jalen green is expected to be back in early january - we will have a good opportunity to get up to 6th

And the Suns have been winning without Grayson Allen as well.

The Wolves have some horrible losses lately I won’t be surprised if they spiral.

and we already got the tie breaker with them

LAL is the target I think. They're without Austin Reaves for a good chunk and there's real cracks in their defense. Phoenix also has 2 games remaining against them.

Nothing wrong with aiming to move ahead of both of those teams.

If the Suns somehow finish above the Rockets. it will be the largest middle finger to the Durant era ever.

Crazy how our expectations have changed. It’s been a while since I’ve been excited to see the suns play.

Please, let it happen.

I don't see any of the trailing team having much potential to pass us and I think the Rockets and Lakers have real potential to slag back, injuries, toxic players, ect.

Also, Wemby is absolutely incredible, the unicorn of unicorns, but I still have no faith that he can stay healthy. Blood clots and lower leg injuries abound and he's only 21. The human body just isn't meant so support those proportions.

 

[Dback Jon]

We are two games out of the four seed.

personally I think the Lakers are a mess. I fully expect the suns to pass them in the standings. Think there is a good chance we pass the T-wolves as well.

I really want us to get to the 5 seed so we can avoid 1st round elimination.

 

[Proximo]

Please, let it happen.

That would be sweet - and I think it would finally conclusively prove KD is a negative force to a team.

 

[Adrian]

Hopefully the Suns don’t take this game lightly.

 

[leclerc]

Last year was painful and boring to watch. Just an unbelievable turn around. Fantastic hires and job by Ott.

 

[Mainstreet]

Ryan Dunn is QUESTIONABLE.

Grayson Allen and Jalen Green remain OUT.

Suns' Ryan Dunn, Grayson Allen out at Wizards

Suns forward Ryan Dunn is out against the Wizards on Monday with a knee issue that also kept him out of Saturday's game at New Orleans.

I can't but notice that nobody has much of anything to say about the Bullets. That's undoubtedly because they're an awful team and almost always are. AFAIK. they haven't done anything of note in almost fifty years (1978 or 1979 championship). Except possibly Gheorghe "You Want To Smell Like Me?" Muresan--he was sort of ,memorable. They're a waste of everyone's time.

Beal was an all-star for 3 straight years while on the team, but that's about it. He was also in the running for MVP in 2021, but his team was too terrible for him to win it.

See? I even forgot that a failed Suns player used to play on that team.

Mark Williams is suspended one game, Jose Alvarado, two games. Williams will not play against the Wizards.

[Chaplin]

That's crap, but at least it's against the Wizards.

 

[leclerc]

Did the Wiz manage to draft any good rookies or have they traded away their future like any well run organization?

Edit: Looks like they drafted SG Tre Johnson.

 

[BooksOrangePlanet]

no williams but we've already done that on the 2nd nights of back to backs - oso has to hold it down - not worried about him on defense but it would be nice to have dunn tonight - he oso and gillespie play so well together

if dunn is a no go then it's fleming to the rescue - im having a hard time with his name btw - it's not like you can shorten fleming lol so rash? or sheer? can't find anything on google

if we don't take the night off we should be fine - if we don't have dunn then ott gets to have the responsibility talk with the big flemingo (hey now) - letting him know we'll be relying on him big time
