I'd usually be weary of a game like this against a lower seeded team without their best player, but I think the Suns will bring the intensity tonight.
As opposed to the Clippers game.
Right. I said pretty much the same thing before that game and well...
It does seem like the first 6-8 minutes of the game have an oversized impact on the overall effort. If the shots aren't falling we tend to see a lower intensity level.

Really glad they have JJ there to balance the awful Jefferson color commentary.

This team looks like it's waiting for Durant to come back. Something is off, the intensity is bad.

I don’t like how slow we’re playing since the trade.

The healthier Paul gets the slower we go, it's weird really.

The pace was fine against the Kings.

Josh Okogie at the right place at the right time.
Nice putback.

Okogie has developed a nice chemistry with Ayton on those drive and dump passes.

Terrible foul call and probably a poor challenge.

Regardless of how long ago, they've played four games since the trade (I don't count the Hawks game). The pace was also fine against the Pacers.
