How does Grayson have 0 3pt attempts? Sorry just my one complaint from this beautiful blowout haha
He started attacking the rim because they’ve been closing out hard on him. They even bit on that KD faked extra pass leading to a wide open corner 3 for Kev. Must have been a point of emphasis. Obviously hasn’t exactly slowed down the offense.

We should get a solid 5 minutes of that combo.

There is no way the end of the bench can blow a 25pt lead with 5min left right?

Hopefully Bol didn’t hurt his shoulder at the end.

Nice win for a change. I like Beal looking to pass.

I've got a little action on today's game. Wish me luck. I have no choice but to use Bovada's numbers. Here's what I need. Book 25.5+ points, Durant 24.5+ points, and Allen 3.5+ threes.
Allen with no 3s?! Sorry he let you down, man!

Book is funny. I wish we had a few replays of it. Between he and KD laughing and Beal doing the on the Pat, it was nice to see the team functioning and having fun.

A little trivia: Bol and Thomas represent the biggest height disparity ever on a Suns roster.
Thomas, at an admitted 5-8, is the second-shortest Suns player ever. Greg Grant was 5-7.
(Yuta Tabuse was variously listed at 5-9 and 5-8)

Bol Bol is either the tallest Sun ever, or tied for the tallest player.
Bol is listed at 7-3 by some (which would make him the tallest) or 7-2, which would tie him with Luc Longley, Hamed Haddadi, Nick Vanos and Cezary Trybański. (Bobster will let me know if I missed somebody)

I don't know if Bol is actually 7'2" or if Wemby is really 7'5" because Bol looked markedly shorter than Wemby next to each other.

This team’s IQ 🤦🏽‍♂️


Beal breaks down his guy to get to the rim and gets a wide open lay up…and fuckin passes!?! He passed to Nurk, who wasn’t expecting it because why would he? He’s covered and Beal has a wide open lay up to get the easy bucket, why the fuck would he pass to him?
Yep, that one drove me crazy. A couple times he was wide open after making a move but decides to pass it to a lesser offensive player. I appreciate that he wants to be unselfish but he needs to make the right play.

Solid start but the Spurs also can't hit a shot. Book looks good, so does KD. Grayson getting to the basket at will. Spurs are running us off the 3pt line so a lot of 2s so far. As long as they don't get hot from 3 we'll be OK with this.
I think they game planned for Allen. Didn't get one three of all night.
