1 point game Curry took out Payton looking for offense and Paul killed them down the stretch.

Azabuike was talking about it on the W's telecast they had Draymond on Paul so the Suns couldn't just force a switch and the guy switching would get caught on a big, if they switch Draymond takes the big. When Payton was in he guarded Paul and largely held him in check

This is what happens when you make DA a focal point on offense. Sucks it took Booker departing to figure it out, but this should be a surprise to absolutely no one

Suns have learned how to tighten down the defense.

They are best when they steal the ball and coming busting down the court like a running back.

Booker being out had nothing to do with it. Ayton’s best sequence was when Book was still in the game.

Bridges 2/3/2 yikes

But he played great defense. That one play where he drove and had a layup then tried to lob to Ayton at the last second has me worried. That was Ben Simmonsish

Meh. The gravity he pulled in the second half was a direct result of force feeding DA in the paint. Dude routinely pulled 2-3 guys in his direction when it was obvious he was going to be involved heavily

Steph Curry was virtually useless. Poole could do whatever he wanted and it didn’t matter.

Monty says Cam Payne was sick this morning and they wondered if he could play.

Wouldn’t be surprised nor upset. Streak’s gotta end sometime, that was a HUGE emotional W and we’ll be down Book.
