It won't be one or the other; it'll be both.


Booker's had a great game. Not his best, but very good for the most part.


Except "stars" is plural, and that includes Durant and Paul. Booker's the only one having a game and forcing it to do so.

Suns lose this game and the series is 100% over. No way they can repeat this type of defense and intensity that they had for most of the game.

Glad we got a clutch alpha dog greatest scorer ever....

Suns traded Mikal Bridges, Cam Johnson, Jae Crowder and 4 1st round picks and a swap so some Vegas Bookies would like us.

Is KD facing the Celtics again? My god he can’t make a shot. What a bad pickup he looks aged and lost. Best shooter of all time my azz. Give me Curry, Jordan, Ray Allen, Klay, etc

A lot of candidates to put an L on but the reality is KD just needs to be better and we win comfortably.

We have no plays its crazy. Im pretty sure Kerr had some offensive plays when he had Curry and Durant. But we just dont have any.

KD decided to fill the role of Landry Shamet tonight.

He's our best defender and 1 of the main reasons that Murray has been so terrible today

Still unsure why Ross and Warren get no minutes when we are desperate for some offense. Ross can hit 5 3s in a row and Warren can get the scrappy effort buckets.
