Nothing better than waking up to find out Suns served an ass-whooping on the fakers.

The recap for this game starting with the Lakers players arguing with each other is amazing….instead of about the Suns the team that won the game.

Wow, great game and it was a joy to watch Chris Paul toying with the Lakers.

Mikal Bridges played GREAT. Both sides.

Book was Book again. Well, not yet but close to be himself again.

Ayton dominated the boards and played very good D. Then some easy finishes on offense... that is exactly what we want from him.

The Lakers have a tough season in front of them. Too many old players who don't mesh well together...at least for now. Their defense wasn't ready at all.

Lol he's insufferable. He must still be annoyed that he couldnt guard Cam Payne in the first round of the playoffs as he got bounced.

There's no words to describe how much I dislike LeDiva. In the first quarter they were pumping chests, doing baby cradles, turning to the crowd after each basket and now you cry after you got your ass handed to you? Stfu and sit your rear end on the bench, karma is a b*tch. Hey I even rhymed :cool:

I hate that they focused on this with Monty in the pre game interview "How will you have your players focused?"

Especially when there is no story yet.

Then when watching the game, I thought to myself "These guys are pumped to be on national tv playing LeBron doing what they train hard for and love...no way they are thinking the least bit about that stuff right before or during the game."

Yeah it's a distraction, but there is a chance the players similar to the fans felt even more optimistic about the future after hearing the news, so they were positively affected.

Man, stop gloating you've made hundreds of millions of dollars, and now some guy has finally made it and you're calling him out for being hyped.

Only player who has ever annointed himself as the GOAT, tells a guy who worked from China to the NBA to stay humble?

He and his teammates were dancing in game 4 thinking they won the series already.

Mr humble LeBron giving advice on being humble. Hypocritical a bit?

Good news is, other than the Suns playing well after a lackluster first game, we might have another year with no super team. Lakers have issues. Nets have issues. Clippers have issues. Hoping for another wide open year.

Return to Phoenix Suns
