  1. I think suns fans are pretty confident in this matchup it’s one of the better ones most fans we’re looking forward to, I think OKC and DEN are much tougher matchups for the suns. With that being said still can’t overlook the wolves in a 7 games series the wolves will definitely hone in on their defense and ant is bound to have a breakout game more than once

  2. The Wolves don’t have to switch with Gobert. They just can’t run a drop. Just hard hedge on Book and KD pnrs and you’ll just have to live with the results of Beal ISOs and Nurkic on a short roll from like 15 feet. They have the personnel to do it

  3. Sadly Grayson Allen is one of the most efficient 3pt shooters in the NBA this year so they need to at least try to stop him from getting too much space. Might be a red herring though, only time will tell

  4. This is a tough matchup for the Wolves, but this team has been the better team all season. I trust in them to get it done in 6 games

  5. I couldn't be happier with our first round pick. Without a major issue, this will be done within 5 games. If the Suns drop one, it'll be game 2.

  6. Wolves in 6. PHX looks amazing when they're hot from 3, but man I just can't shake the inconsistencies from the suns all year

  7. Wolves cant afford to have Gobert to play drop defense otherwise Booker Durant and Beal are going to kill them in the mid range.

    This is going to be a good series but the Suns might have the edge because they have a lot of fire power at least with the starters.

    The wolves bench needs to come through that’s probably going to be the key because I think they have the better bench then the Suns

  8. Who said the suns are not confident?
    Maybe not against OKC but against Minnesota most suns fans feel super confident

  9. Suns has good anti west defense systems. Such as always punking the nuggets and T-wolves. They just always lose to bad teams. Then also always being bad against Mavs. And KD is allergic to Boston in the east right now. Other than that, they’re good.

  10. This will be an interesting playoff series. It'll be the Suns' superior shot creation vs the Wolves' elite defence. I think the Suns may have an edge though.

  11. I like your vids most of the time but I disagree. The Twolves overachieved and the Suns destroyed them in all the games they played. This is the weakest matchup of the west, Twolves go home in 4.

  12. Confident suns fan here 😎 not going to be easy but I believe we got this. Btw haven’t been here in a while but is it me or is he talking faster than 1x speed?🤔

  13. Bros its over for Minnesota. Coming from a Minnesota bro.

    Its a sport. And its Minnesota.

    I remember when a phoenix team ruined it for Minnesota. Paul Allen said it couldnt end like that.

    But it did, Paul. It did.

    Its going to end that way again too. There will be a pool party in Phoenix, bros.

    A Nate Poole party.

  14. Here's the short version of what on this is on my add more to this later but knowing Royce O'Neill's play even though he's a good player he's a nice guy and he still got some good things to offer I live here in Utah and when he was here in Utah even when the Jazz were still a really good team I'm talking the last 3 years, before they got rid of all the top players even the the backups when they were still a contending team with top team the last three years that Royce was in Utah he faded away in the playoffs yeah when it came to the playoffs he was nowhere to be found, he would fade away at the biggest moments both him and Georges niang that's one of the reasons why they got traded so everything he's been on he's done that he did that with Brooklyn when they were in the playoffs as well he faded away and there's nothing that would change that would tell me he's going to change all of a sudden so I'm pretty sure he'll fade away again with Phoenix and another player that does that in big games in playoffs lots of times is Grayson Allen he faded away with Milwaukee

  15. i think the x-factors here are if bradley beal will play close to his wizards version and if jaden mcdaniels will step up on both sides of the floor

  16. I believe Ant can go shot for shot with the suns big 3 it’s all gonna depend on how the suns can get Nurkic to get Gobert to move from the paint to get driving lanes, KAT is gonna have to show up in this series to help Ant on the offensive side. Both teams benches are gonna be one of the X-factors in my opinion

  17. Ant losing in the first round will be good for his development. He needs to go through those growing pains. He isn’t ready yet.

  18. Do all the basketball analysis you want but Minnesota sports is cursed and that’s the only piece of information you need.

  19. the fact that we get Suns/Wolves, Mavs/Clips, Nuggets/Lakers and Thunder/Pels or Kings all in round 1 is an absurd basketball feast

  20. too many of my fellow suns fans talking crazy in these comments — have y'all not learned from the last three seasons?

  21. It’s one of those things where the suns are far worse of a basketball team than the wolves (let’s be real guys) they are just literally designed to beat the wolves matchup wise. At the end of the day I trust ant to elevate in the playoffs and odds as it sounds, the defense was the only reason the suns won the regular season matchups. If ant can simply step it up the way he has in his last two playoff series I just don’t think the suns have the depth to compete, Wolves in 6. If Ant plays the way he did in the regular season or even struggles I am not sure how else the wolves can win, he really is the x-factor here.
