Hope we're seeing a Devin Booker level up, if he can do this consistantly we go from hoping to believing we can win the championship.

McGee has a good starting C against him tonight. He needs to stay out of foul trouble.

Unfortunately, no one else on the Suns is on right now. Defense is looking pretty bad tonight.

Think defense has been ok they're just making some contested shots, we've missed some open 3s.

FG% defense has often been bad. Last game it started out really bad too but luckily we just were on fire.

Love to see Booker have a 4 quarter game at this level, both he and Ayton tend to trail off after a hot start.

Just got home from dinner. Haven't missed much so far or so it would seem?

Good to see he's off to a strong start. Looks like he's the only one really managing much at this point.

gotta do a lot better than that to close this out in the second half, but the good news is if it stays relatively close, this os easily a 40 pointer for Book

Even when Payne has bad games, he still puts so much pressure with the ball because of his ability to shoot and drive to the rim. When he's shooting well, he's devastating

Ugh, not doing well in the third so far.
