I don't think this is going to be an easy W. Cavs could win the East this year.

If we wish for to hang around with the Cavs we need to limit our TO’s and hit between 13-15 3’s. Even then that might not be enough

Another early game. They have played well in those, so maybe make it a competitive one against a league leading team.

Should be an easy dub. Cavs won't take the Suns seriously even with KD and Booker. Surprise win in the books!

Get blown out by Gilbert team and Matt decides to blow it up.

Spoiler:
Or trade Beal + Dunn + Oso + '31 pick for Butler.

Dunn is untradable I wouldn’t trade him for SGA at the moment. The day Dunn averages 25ppg/7 Reb/5 assists/2 blks is the day every suns fan can rejoice.

Tough foul on Booker right there.How are you supposed to guard a guy ramming his shoulder into you? That fouls normally reserved for superstars.Not some random guy off the Cavs bench lol

Boy is Donovan Mitchell a shameless chucker.Even Ty Jerome seems to have a green light.Guess he's plotting a revenge game.

KD & Book have both struggled from the charity stripe over the last few weeks.Lot of games where they brick 2-3 FT's.

Big 1.

Richards back to reality - two goaltendings, moving screen, 3PFs, only Beal with worse +/-.

Simply a mediocre team. Can't pass, can't hit 3s, bad defense, etc.

What a game from Garland. We can't play drop coverage against a team who nails every single floater. Garland, Ty Jerome, Mitchell...just in the first quarter I counted 5 easy floaters.

Name by name this team without Mobley is nothing special but they are playing well organized and hard on defense.

So you can just tap a shooter in mid air now? Hmmm.

Return to Phoenix Suns
