Yeah, if he can start hitting 3s even at 40% on a normal basis, he is a different player. Next tier.

Gotta keep this up, but I also hope we don't fall in love with the three too much. We know what that can do. We need some drives and cuts as well

They seem focused the last two games. Lakers scored 14 points that quarter. Without davis they dont have the horses.


I hope so but its very easy to get complacent.

Run in transition.

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

I did not expect another blowout assumed the game would be close until mid to late 4th Q. But still a ton to play cant let up.

I think if we keep a 20 pt lead, or even 15 maybe, but he usually sits the second half of the first quarter. Just not starting the 2nd.

Maybe Book wants to play 48 since he's so hot. If so, they can probably come close to doing it without playing another guard but may put Moore in or something.

I think if it gets down to 15 he will come back...especially if Book and/or Payne are tired.

We could always go wing heavy though with Bridges at the 2, Cam at 3, Craig at 4, etc.

Suns need to do that more often. So many times their 3s bounce back toward them, but they're already running back on D.

Lebron: " Man this Phoenix team is different against Warriors I was seeing 2 rims but against Suns I see 22"

Return to Phoenix Suns
