I think about the top teams in the West that the Suns didn't beat or struggled against this year. Lack of size was a major issue. Rockets 0-4, Durant, Sengun, and Smith Jr. are all 6'11. Nuggets 0-3, Gordon 6'8, 235 lbs. Jokic 6'11. Thunder 2-3, One game was the in-season tournament where the winner ...

Mavs: Jalen Green, Grayson, Royce,

Suns: Kyrie, PJ Washington

Trade a 23 year old Green for Kyrie ?

HELL NO !!

Today's Officials:

James Capers, Tyler Ford, and Kevin Cutler.

This is why the Suns should have beat Portland last Tuesday. This team (I believe) would have matched up well against the Spurs. They DO NOT match up well against the Thunder at all,....... or at least this season.

7 turnovers already and Maluach hasn't got in the game.

Small ball won't work against this team.

Suns have to gang rebound. Chet and Isaiah are both 7 footers. Rebounding will be extremely important.

Great win by the Suns. It was great to see Jalen Green break out for 30+ in two consecutive play-in games.

He and Goodwin saved the day.

Scoot Henderson got away with a lot of fouls last night. And that's not sour grapes because the Suns lost, it's the truth.

Okay, I forgot about Biyombo, Olynyk, and Plumlee. But, the guys they rely on night in and night out (outside the guys I mentioned in my above post) do not have postseason experience.

I wanted the Spurs because the Suns have a chance to win that series. Only 3 guys on their team have postseason experience. Barnes and Kornet won championships and Fox has been to the first round. Everyone else on their roster has never been to the postseason. That's the matchup I wanted the Suns to ...

Damn, I'm hurt.

I wanted the Suns to play the Spurs, not the Thunder.

DAMN !!

IF we play the Thunder...

I would have given the Suns a 50-50 chance against the Spurs. Against the Thunder ? Not at all.

Blazers ended the game on a 17 to 5 run.

WOW !!

I wanted the Suns to play the Spurs, not the Thunder.

DAMN !!

I want to throw up right now.

The three-point shots are finally starting to fall.

Nice run by the Suns to cut the deficit to 3 at the half.

The refs finally called Williams for pushing off.

Why did we stop shooting 3s?

Cause Portland is defending well.

Robert Williams III is literally using two hands and pushing off to get leverage and get a rebound or on screens. The refs aren't calling it.

I want the Suns to play with pride and passion and bring the energy tonight. No letdown. I want coach Ott to play Maluach if he has to. If you're getting crushed on the boards early and small ball isn't working, then go ahead and play him. I don't want to see the Suns lose this game and then play ...
