    they have no chance with their second best player out for the season. It’s not jaha fault. He will still be ROY. It’s not like the pelicans are doing any better.

    They still have Brooks, Clarke, Melton, Valanciunas.

    This is a very talented and very deep team.

    No Russ, expect Harden to go off.

    Tyson Chandler may even see some time as lob threat.

    Probably not.

    But have to give the rebounding fans some hope.

    lol no it’s not. They aren’t a top 8 if all teams were healthy all year.

    They also had Jae Crowder and AI at one point.

    And they are currently the 8th seed.

    They may be young but the team is talented.

    Going to need better from Tucker and RoCo.

    Harden too but the guy is constantly doubled/trapped.

    If BMac could be more disciplined on defense he would be insanely dangerous.

    Without Kelly obrue jr. Add him to the mix and the Suns will be a playoffs contender next season

    If I am D'Antoni, these are my starters tonight.

    Harden
    BMac
    RoCo
    PJ
    Green

    That is 2 ballhandlers (Hardeen & Green), 2 lights out shooters plus max length on defense.

    Bring in Rivers, House, Demarre off the bench for scoring, ball handling and defense.

    Much more balanced rotation.

    Play EGo next game. Make sure he is 100% first. Let's not waste him on what is essentially a scrimmage.
