Crowder 40% fg improving by the day. Hope by season's end he's around 43% shooting wise.

Okeke looks pretty good. He was out for what? 2 years? I had been surprised they drafted a PF last year with Isaac, Gordon and all their bigs...seems like they always have tons of PFs and Cs....Khem Birch and Aminu too...and Bamba and Gary Clark.

Our defense is not well polished like the previous few games.

Loving Ayton's level of aggression, much better backing in for the hook than settling.

Magic 10 of 21 from 3 the reason they're playing so well.

That was a super fast first half. Once we play defense to our ability the game will be pretty much over. Booker 2nd foul early didn't help as well played 3-4 less min than other starters. And Leander just said today is 4th year anniversary since Bookers 70 point game. I had no idea it was today if it wasn't mentioned.

That was a great block/steal he had earlier at the 3 point line in the 2nd too. That one had me yelling out.

Good comeback when the game 3 minutes from slipping away.

I've never said this before but maybe this is the time Ayton's figured it out, he's now got a go to play in his back down right hook, unstoppable.

Hopefully the bench plays better in the 2nd half and hopefully Monty staggers CP3 and Book

Would like to see Bridges, Payne and Saric play better 2nd half. Everyone playing well besides those three.

I Wouldn't be surprised or upset if Ayton plays hard for 5+ games than again disappears for another dozen of games as I've seen in past few years. Consistancy is not his forte and unless he proves us wrong I stand by my word.

Biggest difference I've noticed with Ayton is that despite the fact they are swiping at the ball, he hasn't lost it yet. That's a HUGE difference in him being able to get his offense going.

Seems like they have had a lot less Ann Meyers Drysdale lately. Would be nice if they are phasing her out and grooming Skylar Diggins to take her place.

There ya go Bridges.

Remember earlier in the year when this starting group sucked? Well, they are legit now. So fun to watch.

Fantastic chemistry from our starters, think DA's presence has taken them to another level.

CP3 is quickly rising up the list of my favorite suns ever. Already

Yeah, I was thinking of typing knock on wood with that.

Like the aggressiveness by Ayton on that play there. Could have easily passed there.

Chances of making the finals
