The Suns are in TROUBLE…



The Suns are in TROUBLE…

The Phoenix Suns and Minnesota Timberwolves entered these playoffs as one of the most interesting matchups in the field. Many people thought the Suns behind their midrange prowess and elite firepower with Kevin Durant, Devin Booker, and Bradley Beal could overwhelm the Timberwolves, while others saw the trio of Anthony Edwards, Rudy Gobert, and Karl-Anthony Towns as too much to overcome. Phoenix was a popular pick to upset, but, instead, the Timberwolves moved to 2-0 on the series after once again blowing out the Suns. This is obviously a bad spot to be in for the series, but it’s even worse when you consider potential implications going forward. Meanwhile, the Dallas Mavericks and Los Angeles Clippers faced off in Kawhi’s return, and the Indiana Pacers got a big win behind the insane play of Pascal Siakam against the Milwaukee Bucks. Let’s talk about it.

  1. Us Suns fans arent even upset. We've learned to never have hopes and dreams for a team. Time and time again, superstars cycle in and out of Phoenix. We get our hopes up, have a good playoff run, get even more excited, then it all comes crashing down. 76, 79,84, 89, 90, 93, 05, 06, 07, 10, 21, 22. Just crushing heartbreak.

  2. It's become abundantly clear that superteams aren't an easy way to contention. If you don't have LeBron level leadership from one of your stars it's a disaster waiting to happen.

  3. The Timberwolves have been the better and more consistent team all season I don’t know why people are surprised by these results in this matchup. The Suns barely sneaked into the playoffs and honestly at one point looked like they would miss the playoffs entirely

  4. Here's the thing with the Suns and Wolves. The Suns have three street ballers on their team and expect them to win them games themselves. They lack a reliable bench, a TRUE point guard, and size. Yes, they have Nurkic, but the Wolves have the Twin Towers. The Wolves have all of what the Suns lack. People were writing off the Wolves because of how the regular season series went. I kept telling them the playoffs are a different animal; and although the last time the Wolves advanced in the playoffs was 20 years ago, they play physical and swarming defense, then their offense comes afterwards. They don't call it playoff basketball for no reason.

  5. People are so focused on the older gen (LBJ, KD, Steph), they’re not realizing there slowly being pushed out by the newer gen superstars.

  6. I'll never forget when ppl tried to tell me Devin Booker was the best SG in the NBA 😂
    Remember when ppl tried to claim he was a top 10 player?
    I remember being called corny for saying CP3 was the reason for the Sun's and Bookers' success
    I remember being told I didn't know ball for stating that Books overrated

    Well….Well….Well

  7. The suns need a point guard… when CP3 was there i can clearly see a set and organization. But now every time just screen and run around. Not sure whether is a coach issue

  8. Suns were the worst fourth quarter team in the league with terrible roster construction. A jump shooting team that doesn’t take nearly enough threes and isnt great on defense. Were bound to get exposed in the playoffs

  9. Of course the Suns have a problem. It's called Kevin Durant. As soon as they signed him I knew they weren't going past the first round.

  10. Luka did a great job on defense last night, but the clippers are not doing themselves any favors by shooting contested jumpers with him guarding Kawhi, Harden, or PG. make him move his feet and get him in foul trouble. Still think it’s LA’s series but they need to adjust a few things

  11. Devin Booker is not a point guard that's what they missing they try to go get John Wall or resign Chris Paul🤷

  12. Minnesota is being allowed to foul on each and every possession. Its hilarious that everyone is just gonna ignore the blatant double standard regarding the calls XD
    But sure Booker is overrated, and KD is old. (if your fucking blind)

  13. Make sure you stick with yo choice . DON’T SWITCH UP AND HOP ON THE WOLVES TRAIN 🔥
