Yup, they look dang near unstoppable with all 3 healthy. Odds of them staying healthy for a deep playoff run are slimmer than Shanny holding a 4th qtr lead.

It would be nice if we can find a willing trade partner to take a Nurkic and Allen package and get a serviceable, athletic big in return. The team looks so much better when Mason and Oso are in vs lumbering Nurkic.

Agree, Nurkic is just too damn slow out there. He can pull a game here or there but overall is a liability.

Last year 4th quarters were our downfall. So far this year, it seems we are getting outplayed in the 3rd quarter more often than not.

Hearing a lot of hype about a Jimmy Butler trade.......so probably means it ain't happening.

Durant in his first game back, so of course Beal is now out. You could set clocks to this s**t.

Ishbia making money moves on the outrageous food costs at games. Hopefully other franchises follow suit.

A family of 4 used to spend $98 on hot dogs/water/popcorn. Now they can enjoy that same meal for $24. Our fans and community are the foundation of what we do and we will continue to invest in making this the best organization in all of basketball, on and off the court.

Big surprise, another one. Plot twist though - this time it's Booker who gets hurt and can't finish the game. Sigh

I'm a fan of the 49ers, Suns, and white sox. I miss the mid 90's. Crazy that the Sox are the only ones to win a ship in the last 30 years and they are a godawful organization.

Ryan Dunn forgot how to shoot 3's. I can't remember the last one I saw him hit one.
