    It's obviously a reference to Steph Curry.

    We haven't played in Phoenix yet tehGlide.

    Yeah its going to be extremely hard to beat them in Phoenix. In the last 8 meetings down there, the Suns are 7-8 against us. We might see these jokers in the 1st round so we need to handle our business for sho. Statement game

    From here on out all games count even more with the standings being so bunch up in the West. Two or more Ls will get down to the 8th spot looking up.

    Are they really having a "KJ Dunk Night" over in Phoenix?

    If so, we should really look into promoting a "Kiss of Death" night when they come back to town.

    Win, PLEASE. A loss here would be pretty demoralizing. It would be awesome to see JHam get some burn tonight, but I won't get my hopes up.

    Harden has been notoriously bad with the Suns, even though they sucked last year.
    This year they are much better of a team so if
    Harden plays = lose,
    Harden limited minutes, Lin starts = easy win.

    Interested to see if Hamilton will get minutes...

    I think we win a tough one, 105-100

    Beverley will lock Dragic down, so easy win?

    No Lin, sure win. Especially if he remains tentative and doesn't add anything to the game. Also no Casspi or Garcia. Sounds good to me.

    Very important game. If we want to keep the 3rd seed or get to 2nd we need to win tough games like this. Glad that we had 3 days rest for this one.

    Need to come out strong, no lapses, and play strong defense all the 4th quarter.





    & chandler for 12 3pointers in the 2nd half, that should take the wind out of the Sun!

    The line is Rockets -1.5 points. Looks like a close game on paper.

    Beverly needs to have a strong game guarding dragic. Howard needs to control the paint. easier said then done, but thats why Beverly starts and why we wanted Howard so bad right?
