The Cams coming in and hitting some 3s. This 2nd unit can put the points on the board.

I like the reffing so far.

I'm encouraged by the Bucks willingness to take contested jump shots early in the clock.

It hasn't been bad, but Booker has only gotten one of three foul calls he deserved.

So, Saric gets hurt on a foul that didn't get called.

That Dario pump fake looked really awkward.

Giannis looks great.

Giannis has done the same thing twice. Suns need to get ready for that and move in position to take a charge on the baseline.

Dario didn't look great limping back to the lockerroom.

Well, aside from the Saric injury, you couldn't ask for a better quarter of basketball.

Having made that ref comment, Giannis’ off arm push off deserves some attention I would say.

First lead at the end of any quarter of any Game 1 of the Finals in Suns franchise history.

I like Craig on Giannis a lot. He'll come in handy this series, especially if Dario misses time. Interested to see if Monty reaches for Frank at some point.

I think it's safe to say the officials aren't going to make that call, so the Suns are better off trying to use it to their advantage.

Chris Paul and Crowder haven’t been uncorked yet. On the other side of the ball, Jrue Holiday hasn’t made a single shot. We could do a better job defending the backboard.

Solid 1st quarter
Love Book's mindset

Believe it or not, I think CP3 of all people needed that 1st quarter to settle himself so should be fine now going fwd

So confused by Dario decision just now. He got the step on Brook and got him in the air but somehow chose to avoid jumping into him for the foul then ends up hurting himself sigh

Would have been Lopez 2nd foul also

My gut is telling me Dario is out. Almost everything about that play and his trip to the locker room was discouraging.

Stressing about Saric being out - the bucks’ size is their biggest threat - then realising T Craig can pick it up ok.

Go suns.
