I can't imagine how awesome that would have felt if LeVert made that shot...that would have probably been the best feeling as a Suns fan since maybe Tim Thomas hitting that 3 in 2006.

I hate everything man. 8-0 and out of it by 1 point because Lillard gets his own rulebook and a lucky ass bounce

Yeah I think we'd have made a good series with the Lakers. Blazers will get swept easily. I don't know why the Grizzlies tried so hard, they are just going to lose to the Blazers Saturday.

Raja's three in the clippers series right after that was pretty awesome too, but I get your point.

So that Dallas game with the **** reffing and now the Nets losing on a bull 3 pointer foul. I like Dame and I'm happy for him, but god it sucks to be a Suns fan.

Man, sports are cruel some times.

I know 8-0 was amazing in the bubble, but our season was crap! How can you be mad that we didn't make the playoffs? We were 34-39.

Go look at all the games we lost by 1, Aytons suspension, we never got time to test line-ups, etc.

This is going to build confidence for next year!

All I can say is, our guys better be HUNGRY next season.
SHAZAM!

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

I didnt expect the playoffs at the start of the season or around January. Ending 8-0 is a nice feeling, hopefully we have good free agency and get a good rookie.

Seriously though...Levert must’ve been like shooting like 70% in the paint or drawing fouls and with the game on the line....

Yeah, it definitely didn’t have anything to do with Ayton blundering his way out of one third of the season.

Great bubble, the Suns killed it.

Honestly, I would call it a silver lining, but I think it is more than that. While the playoff experience would be nice, teams sometimes get there and then just expect to get back. The biggest lesson here is to not take any game in the regular season at all lightly...no personal agendas..you need to win..you cannot let others control your destiny.

You will never know the feeling. Neither will I or anyone else in this forum. It will not bounce in the Suns way.

Admittedly, I had very low expectations but this team surpassed them even with the injuries and Ayton's suspension. None of this will be in vain if we perform to our higher expectations next season. Playoffs sets the bar now.
