Reacting to Kevin Durant & the Suns’ HISTORIC 4th quarter comeback against the Kings
Listen going into the fourth quarter we were ready to burn it all down yeah it just flipped on its head and so there’s we literally were talking about how do we even react to this game because the first I mean hell the first three and a
Yeah three and a half it was not they were down 19 with six minutes left to go and we’re like man they look like they don’t care don’t look at your Phone no no no no No yeah yeah let’s [ __ ] go welcome in everybody to the phnx Suns post game show we are getting sexy sacks tonight because the Phoenix sons took down the Sacramento Kings 119 to 117 what a comeback Rost some unexpected sack let’s go hit Him 2 and0 we’re in what the take over baby go get your tickets for the next one baby we do nothing but get dubs on takeover that’s fact that’s fact historical ones at that you guys absolutely insane I don’t think anybody had this on their bingo card this year
Or tonight I think we all kind of thought things were just going to be what they were but then the Suns decided to show up in the fourth quarter of all times who have thought I don’t even know what to say outside of the repeat of our show right here uh it was
Listen going into the fourth quarter we were ready to burn it all down yeah it’s just flipped on its head and so there’s we literally were talking about how do we even react to this game because the first I mean hell the first three and a
Yeah three and a half it was not they were down 19 with six minutes left to go and we’re like man they look like they don’t care there was a possession with 11:30 left to go where the ball went out of bounds and they’re all walking back
And the Kings took it took their sweet time and still got a layup uncontested behind the entire defense and we were like they don’t care they don’t they don’t want to be here anymore and then it all changed and I don’t even know what happened just yeah unbelievable
It’s funny because we were sitting down and Saul goes I I think they got it down to 12 and you go four more threes and then Katie comes hits a three and I’m like okay that’s three okay and then what uh somebody else Katie hit another one I think and then EG and
And you start to see a shift and I will say this this is a total surprise like listen I give him credit for keeping you know keep fighting and the last six minutes positive it happened in the fourth quarter which has been in our our damn Achilles Hill they flipped the damn
Script completely flipped it so that’s the most positive I’m bringing out of it besides the win is that the fourth quarter W that we were having I mean this is a complete 360 you said you don’t know what happened I know exactly what happened Kevin [ __ ] Durant
Wayne is not his middle name anymore that was why you trade for a superstar he took over the fourth quarter that was Kevin Durant’s signature moment as a son was that fourth quarter they went on a 32 to8 run wow they they won without Devin Booker scoring a point in the
Fourth quarter he went 0 for one yeah Kevin [ __ ] Durant is why they won this game they you know they they crapped the court in the in the first half the dog peed on the court at halftime they followed it up in the third but somehow they pulled it off in
The fourth this team did the exact opposite of what they’ve done all year we always look at the fourth quarter with Dread well tonight changed that and it closed the gap between them and the Kings to one game this is a defining moment this is how you define who are
Yeah I mean Kevin Durant came into the fourth quarter with 12 points he finished with 27 like thank God that KD showed up because Grayson Allen sure as hell needed some help out there tonight I mean listen I’m not trying to get too far ahead of myself but uh it just I
Don’t know what it was but whatever it was that flipped for this team because we were talking about like Saul you brought up not getting back after an out of bounds call the the body language on the at the end of the game when Frank vogle was talking to him and it looked
Like no one was even paying attention to him it looked as if they had given up and it was just yet another fourth quarter Sons shenanigans that we’ve come to know and hate yeah but they turned it around and like that’s a good sign like how many times have we talked about
Needing to just see some progress needing to see something that they changed that is for a positive for the better right this was that like I know ESO you were struggling we all were at the or right when the game ended like how do we even feel about this game because it
Was Boo Boo for a hot minute but then at the same time we should be really really happy that they turned it around because if the if the roles were reversed and the Kings did this to us we would be losing our minds absolutely oh yeah
Absolutely 100% And you know this is a sign this is one of them times where you sit back and you understand the strength and how dangerous this big three could be they were terrible for three and a half quarters and then Kevin listen Kevin saved our ass tonight but there
Was a moment that I saw when it got to about three and a half minutes where you can see that they were looking towards Kevin and saying we feel good because you’re Kevin Durant and so it’s one of those things where it could be a defining moment guys it could be one of
Those moments you listen in that in that fourth quarter I mean hit you know bucket after bucket which was clutch yeah uh he had a great defensive possession against dearon Fox on the wing that led to uh him actually getting another another shot uh Grayson Allen
Had a block uh out of kind of out of nowhere as well and I thought his defense in the fourth quarter was fantastic Grayson Allen probably had his best game as a phoenix son tonight and for a large portion of this game he was the only one to have a good game and
Then everything changed obviously and so the combination between Grayson and KD was fantastic and it’s something that I mean Grayson we we kind of are starting to expect that he can have these games uh and then especially on a night where the big three were kind of absent for a
Majority of this game it it’s exactly what you want to see from a a role player but Grayson’s also starting to be he’s starting to make uh more of a name for himself across the league yeah which is increasing his value it’s a good thing and a bad thing is a great thing
And it’s also not such a great thing so but I will say this the Kings melted down like we usually melt down in the fourth quarter how bad do they melt down take a look at this graph from ESPN look at that they had a 99.3% chance to win the game in the
Fourth quarter and then it just went straight downhill I have never seen a graph quite like that before I have it was Enron I add on to your graph okay Mar jamus in the chat sent this to us on Twitter they said since 1996 1997 the
Kings were 226 to1 when leading by 22 or more points in the fourth quarter okay and then then even more so Tim Reynolds on Twitter shared that the suns were down 22 points with eight uh minutes and 10 seconds left and came back and beat the Kings the biggest fourth quarter
Comeback in the NBA since the bubble teams facing deficits of 22 or more in the fourth quarter were one and 1,244 since August 23rd 2022 wow bro you you bring that is a stats you bring up Grayson too about making a name for himself here in Phoenix he now has I
Believe it’s four of the top eight three-point shooting performances in a game yeah all four of them this year he’s done nine twice and eight twice now and and I I I I’d be remiss if I don’t say this my man EG played a big role in
This he hit two really big shots at and he was having one of those damn games where I was scared every time he touched the ball but he came I almost chucked my phone from the freaking Upper Deck man I was like yeah that was brutal
Real quick I’m sorry no it was O and 1,244 tonight the one so apparently tonight was the one wow so sorry I just had to clarify that one
Kevin Durant, Devin Booker, Bradley Beal & Grayson Allen powered the Suns to an all-time comeback against the Kings Tuesday night. The PHNX Suns podcast gives their instant postgame reaction to one of the wildest endings they have ever seen.

I turned off the game mid 3rd quarter, and I couldn’t believe what I read as the final score. I had to reopen the browser a few times lol
I’d take this comeback win over blowing a fourth quarter lead 💯
Let’s hope this is the turn of events we need. The suns finally looked like they were having fun and fired up
Kd the GOD
I like the OVO suns mash up 🔥
Flex face when he turned around and realized he was being recorded was hilarious. Completely switched up his energy when he realized. Ha
“They crapped the court in the first half , The dog peed on the court at half time” hahaha that’s so funny 😂
I watched the coyotes game once 7 mins hit for the 4th. Didn’t think they would come back like this
Team doesn't have a coach that can run an offense. That's been the problem the entire season. We need to bring in Dantoni. I would have preferred them losing so we could bring in a new coach with an offense
I’m not going to lie. I turn the off. I was so angry that I just fell asleep. I woke up this morning hearing that they came back from 22. Beautiful
i really rooting for KD to get that 3rd ring it would shut a lot of haters up. imagine 3 titles 3 finals mvps 🔥 i feel like no one could deny his top 10 status all time at that point
