I said it before that Ant won't be struggling against the Suns like he did in the regular season and since he's playing against his favorite player (KD) in the postseason, it got him motivated.

I picked the Suns in 7 but that doesn't mean I'm confident about that pick. The problem with Phoenix is that if their offense isn't clicking they're in trouble because they don't play any defense whatsoever. They win games with their offense.

vogel deserves some blame for each suns possession being an iso
i guess but this point guard by committee shyt almost always gets ate up in the playoffs. no one creates anything for anyone else on offense and they're getting absolutely dogwalked on the boards

impossible to win like that

So when PHX formed this big three I thought it wouldn’t work because:

-Booker isn’t matchup proof and tends to be inconsistent in the playoffs
-Beal was always just a stat padder
-Durant is too old to carry these guys game in and game out in a series
-thin up front which limits their defensive potential

And here we are.

“Big three” where?

Beal ain’t no Damn superstar :mjlol:

Durant is their only legitimate threat on offense. Their offense runs through him
