Suns have no future. No control of their picks. CP3 is old and Ayton doesn't fit. Maybe can trade both to Indiana for Turner and some bad contracts.

People really tried to say Jokic was still a question mark in the playoffs. Dude has never had a bad series.

And this team is not that deep either, just much better than the last two seasons.

Seriously though, why is Joker still in this game? Does Malone not trust his bench with a 25 point lead with 6 minutes left in the 4th?

:lol: Mike Malone said "Jesus ****' Christ" when he called that timeout.

He's like guys the faster you execute and score the sooner you'll come out the game.

Even he knows PHX doesn't want to win lol

Malone is about as old school a coach as you can get. Doesn't want to jinx anything.

Denver are trying really hard to let the Suns back into it.
