    They’ve won these two games while being very sloppy with the ball which is a good sign because you’d hope they’d clean it up.

    My wife was counting us as dead when we went down by 5 with 1:30 left. I told her she’s a noob because this is an eternity in basketball

    I think the Suns have mini-implosion potential.

    Dame reminding Ayton that the games on the line. Nice gesture!

    The Suns will have their shit together soon and that's unfortunate because we have to try to pull this same thing off two more times in back to back night starting in a couple of weeks. This is an encouraging win though and we shouldn't diminish it with some weird predictions like they're having a mini implosion after we handed them their first loss, regardless of how they got their first win.

    Simons one on one against one of the best defenders in the NBA with the game on the line....... that was the highlight for me.
    Yes, his numbers sucked, but he had two clutch shots in the game...the 3 for the lead with 1.18 left, and the hook to win it.
    That means much more to me in the long term than his stats tonight.

    Tonight was a great win. The Suns have a lot of talent.

    I'm betting against the Suns to make a deep run in this years playoffs.

    just more proof that +/- for a game is the most useless stat in sports

    Billups is a good coach. I like how he tinkers with the zone throughout the game but never fully commits for too long

    Anyone else in the opinion that booker seems to be one of those "I'm not afraid of you" superstars?
