Coming off a good win and with CP3 likely playing tonight (assumption by me). It goes without saying... this is a must win.

It's only one game.

I want to see more doke so we can see what he can do.

According to Locke, we can probably expect Conley to be back, and Doke has a sore knee.

I wonder what O'Neale's injury is. I don't think it's covid because he was on the bench and around the team. If Conley is a go, this should provide a preview of what the lineup will look like if O'Neale is unavailable. I'm interested in seeing if Quin will go with the 4 ballhog lineup, Niang, Morgan, or Oni.

Don't know, maybe It was covid, but it made him be more steps behind Conley in terms of game readiness (I think it's fair to conclude Conley were already behind the others as he had to quarantine)

Was he cleared to join the others later than Mike ?

Also, at first i'd think they start Conley, Mitchell, Ingles, Bogey and Gobert unless Conley is due to some heavy minute restriction. Would prefer to see Oni starting, be It instead of Ingles or Conley

I wish the Suns play closer to full strenght tonight so we can see how the guys fare against better opposition. Last game there were many interesting signs that would feel a lot better against better lineups.

After one game he has an owie?

One game that doesn't count.

I'd suspect there is a difference between the conditioning regimen at Kansas and what he is getting right now with the Jazz. Probably a whole lot more sore than just his knee.

He needs to play in the pre-season though... ain't gonna be any minutes once games are real until there is an injury... even then if its Favs that gets hurt it might mean more playing time for Morgan.

Rub some dirt on it and get out there kid.

Guys have probably barely run 5's this off-season with covid. Teams want to be safe ramping up minutes.

They've also had a week of 2-a-day practices. So hopefully, it's not serious

 

[Saint Cy of JFC]

Hopefully Juwan Morgan balls out again and takes all Niang's minutes.

 

[Revolution 9]

I want to see more doke so we can see what he can do.

We know exactly what he can do. dunks, hooks, and defence.

Also we know he is the worst FT shooter in the history of the game.

 

[Revolution 9]

Hopefully Juwan Morgan balls out again and takes all Niang's minutes.

Yes. So much yes.

Can we pls not overrate Doke’s defense? Dude has potential, but he was jumping at everything.

He left the lane pretty wide-open.

He left the lane pretty wide-open.

It definitely put a damper on the "maybe he could play a few meaningful minutes" idea.
