Great first quarter with the ball swinging around for something like 16assists on 17FGM. Book, KD and Beal are all playing well, our role players are hitting their shots and the defense is really solid. The ball's stopped moving a bit now in the middle of the 2nd so hopefully Bud can reset things during a TO. Beal starting to overdribble and ISO even while Tyus is out there.

Dunn with great defense so far and 3 threes.

Book came back in not being aggressive like how he started
Multiple times made a move, got to midrange and didn't rise up then to pass out the ball and have to work against the shot clock

Intensity, flow of team definitely dropped
Can't expect Lakers were just gonna stop playing already

I would say over passing
I was ready to post at halftime that I glad he came out looking to score tonight and not repeat Game 1

It's like he watched the run when he was on the bench and came back in saying I could relax

He's doing what Beal did last year being the guy trying to fit with the other 2. Just play your game man

You'd think you'd use your PGs to limit the TOs. Guess not.

As good as the end of the first quarter was for the Suns was equally bad to end the 2nd.

Why wouldn't he shoot a wide open three in the corner?!

3's and runouts. They're just giving up too many easy shots now.
