Ott says, "all hands on deck"?

There were a LOT of hands in the last game that could have been useful that were apparently overboard, apparently.

im nervous like i should've been against portland

 

[Covert Rain]

The Suns don't have the mental strength for a late Warriors flurry. Unlike earlier in the season, this team seems to break during high pressure moments. If it comes down to that we are in trouble.

Couple more things. If this another game where Ott sticks with a so so Oso while Mark rides the bench? Ott deserves to get blasted. If Booker shrinks tin the 4th in close game AGAIN...same goes for him.

Hope the Suns can turn on that early season switch. They seem to have forgotten where it is since the All-Star break.

I'm already thinking about what the Suns need to do for next season which is not a good sign.

They lost their mojo somewhere along the way.

ott's got the perfect opportunity/excuse to change things up without it looking like he's abandoning his philosophy - the warriors are an entirely different team

curry draymond and porzingis are all banged up but can all still destroy us - does ott dare go small ball against golden state? and by small ball i mean goody

i love the goody but khaman - our base 4 is book jalen brooks and williams - it's obvious what's missing and it isn't 6'3"

it isn't the size of the dog in the fight but when it's pack against pack size matters - straight up - if we get out rebounded tonight playing 4 guards ott deserves all the smoke

 

[Mainstreet]

Maybe Grayson Allen and Mark Williams feel better next season somewhere else. They are both QUESTIONABLE for tonight.

Warriors-Suns officials tonight:
Scott Foster, Mitchell Ervin, Tre Maddox
(I know there will be screaming going into this. But nobody ever screams after Foster refs a game and the big-name team loses. The conspiracists just wait for the next one and scream again. Oh well.)

Hopefully Ott doesn't come to his sense and plays rookies now, this is the game where the veteran Warriors will draw any touch, sneeze or cough as a foul on us.

You should be nervous. I only watched the last 5 minutes of the GS Clipper game, but that was all I needed to see to know GS seems to want it more than the Suns.

I 100% feel that Man Man and Oso are no replacement for Mark Williams even combined. Grayson has been injury prone this season. However, I don't see how the Suns are better without finding his caliber somewhere else. So, it all depends on who replaces these players because IMO, we don't have proven replacements on this roster.

 

[BooksOrangePlanet]

hoping the suns are up for the moment tonight - that's what it all comes down to - a sense of purpose - dedication to excellence - taking zero plays off

idc who's on the court i just want their best game

 

[elindholm]

omg scott foster

How is he still an NBA official? How much more evidence could the league possibly need?

 

[elindholm]

Why do so many NBA stars have obvious difficulty walking?

 

[BooksOrangePlanet]

mark williams is out

pretty much guarantees he will not be a sun next year imo
