- Booker's got to play better perimeter defense
- Johnson has to find his shot or he needs to grab some bench
- Kaminsky and Saric together on the defensive end just doesn't work

Well.......... technically they did cover.Flagrant Fowl wrote: ↑Tue May 04, 2021 2:41 pmThe Suns have failed to cover as 10+ point favorites in their last four games. The most recent cover was a 134-106 win against Washington as a 13.5 point favorite on April 10th.
They're currently a 12.5 point favorite today. Who's willing to put a little cash on the Cavs?

Biggest OT blowout in Suns history. NBA record is 17.

He’s 6’8” with a size 8?

The Suns shattered the OT point spread record though.
My data goes back to the 2004-5 season.
The biggest road favorite OT cover in those 17 seasons until today was March 15 this year when Milwaukee (-8.5) beat Washington by 11 in OT
The biggest home favorite OT cover in those 17 seasons until today was Nov 10 2019 when Portland (-9) beat Atlanta, also by 11 in OT
The Suns blew those out of the water today

I think Paul is joking. Size 8 is really small for a guy his height, and we'd probably have heard about it before now if it were true.

I need more of that Cam in my life. The bench reaction was hilarious too.

I am in the hospital and couldn't catch the game live. I was planning on watching the bally's stream after my daughter went to sleep, but accidentally saw a tweet notification about OT. So I took 10 minutes and watched the last 3 minutes of regulation and then OT. Holy shit that was amazing. And I am glad I didn't sit through the first 45 minutes of this game.

Think he was 0-8 before hitting a 3 and getting this dunk in OT...but he was about the only one defending in the 4th Q..
Re: Game Day: Suns (46-18) @ Cavs (21-43), Tues 5/4/21
48? Pfft! Make it 53.
I think I figured it out. The Suns don't get enough practice time so they like to practice different situations in-game. OTs this time. I think they got that down pretty good.

Man, can you imagine having money on that game? From nail biter to blowout in 5 OT minutes.
