Well at least the clutch suns showed up…we got lucky tonight…not gonna win many games shooting 4/26 from 3
Hopefully not many games where we shoot 4 of 26 either. Gross

Some very good things came out of this game. Still some things to work on, mostly making a few more 3's. I can sleep good tonight.

Just make 1 three Crowder
When he finally made one, his toe was on the line and they rule it a 2. That’s OK. It was still a huge make and relief.

That’s a foul on Alvarado knocking Shamet out of bounds
I saw that too. Totally ignored by the refs. There was a reason he stepped out of bounds.

CP3’s midrange game completely disappearing just makes no sense.
You were a little premature on that one. :P

Doris Burke was trying use the whole mental gymnastics playbook to try justify flagrant 1 on Craig before the official ruled a common foul.
Thank God for the local broadcast
It did feel like she was rooting against us.

Well our 47-0 leading after 3 record is in jeopardy
The Suns were 47-0 in the regular season when leading after three quarters. Now they’re 2-0 in the playoffs.

Except that he isn't a PF.

We played him as a PF and he is a C. Go look at the actual game logs in bbref for his time in Indy and he plays C over 80% of the time.

That was a CP3/DA win with Javale contributing.

Suns better not take that for granted. Neither is built to carry us alone through a whole series. Consider that the gift. Cam J/Bridges/Jae/Payne/Shamet better wake the hell up and hopefully this allows them to breathe a little.

Monty says postgame that Landry played well and credited him for staying ready. Is he high???? We watched two different games.

Maybe he was saying, wow, compared to every bench player except McGee, Shamet looked good tonight.

Taking out the shooting, I’d agree Shamet played fine…but 0-5 from 3 is tough. He makes 2 of those and it’s a fantastic game.
