 74 at the half, up 20. Good ball movement and active defensively. A few lulls but nothing the Pels could do anything with. Gotta see if we can sustain it for another half. Thought we did a good job containing Zion.
Yep. A few sloppy passes near the end of the half from Book and especially Durant but other than that, very strong.

I've never seen a team so reckless with the ball. Just lazy passes, completely unnecessary.

The inevitable rash of TOs and a Pels run has the lead down to 13 heading into the 4th.

It’s just an auto foul when Zion takes a shot

A lot of these have been fouls, but not all of them against Zion

Not a pretty W, but a W...not using his bench sufficiently, IMHO...

Suns got the W. Now it's back home for Cleveland.

Can't underestimate the Cavs because it'll be a second night of a back to back as they play Utah first. Gotta handle business, period.
