Bucks box score looks awful, but they are only down 1 after the 1st

Booker has already decided we aren't losing today. You can already see the difference in his aggression.

But the problem is that the most Suns-y thing that could happen is for both the Grizz and Portland to win. I fully expect that outcome.

Nice first quarter from just about everyone. When was the last time Carter missed a 3?

10-0 run puts the Suns up 36-23 late in the 1st. Team is looking great, especially our bench guards, Carter and Payne. Bridges and Booker also giving us great minutes. And the refs actually let a few possessions go by without calling a foul to help Luka. GO SUNS!

Great first quarter! Booker is the man, scoring and drawing fouls. 14 points already.

If we can get/maintain a nice lead have to believe Grizz will be aware of the score and might mess with the young team

Doncic trying to draw fouls now. Jumps into Bridges, foul called. Time out for a Monty challenge.

Good start but I still think this won’t be a easy one.

I just don't love those challenges, especially early in the game. Refs won't overturn that.

Don’t get anywhere near Doncic or they will call a foul.

Bucks are awful...I’ve been a bucks supporter in the past, but this is gonna be a game changer for me if they lose this game. I’ll be cheering for Toronto/Clippers over them. Yes it’s unnecessarily petty, but it’s where I’m at, haha.

If suns can keep a decent lead going into the 4th, I think Carlisle sits Doncic for the rest of it.

If Ayton is never gonna be aggressive while in the post, then Cam just showed the only way it's gonna work... other players on the floor need to be more aggressive in cutting to the basket because DA can at least pass pretty well and has good vision.

Really happy with the performance of the team in the bubble. The future is looking so much better.
