i watch every game and i still don't know how the suns do it - it's not just defense but timely defense - that get your ish together and lfg defense - our guys don't get credited for steals on the stat sheets cuz one guy deflects it and another guy collects it - shows up as a turnover lol

and the suns matched the physicality and toughness tonight 100% - we were even staying ahead without the 3 ball - hit a few of those and it's over

A look at some stats.

@GeraldBourguet

Final: PHX 108, MIN 105
Williams: 22 Pts, 7 Reb, 2 Stl, 7-9 FG
Gillespie: 19-6-4, 6-15 FG
Brooks: 18 Pts, 7-20 FG, 2-8 3P
Edwards: 40 Pts, 9 Reb, 15-21 FG

REALLY impressive win without Devin Booker and Jalen Green
Yeah I would have never thought we could win when Colin,brooks, and Grayson all had off shooting nights.

I think it’s really pretty simple, our team wants it more than just about every team we play.

ant drops another 40 burger on us and can't figure out how he lost - sounds like luka
we let ant score at will (like luka)
40 points but only 2 assists

but we didn't let randle score at will - we doubled him - made him pass
21 points and 8 assists

ott is diabolical - he's forcing the superstars to be superstars then he beats the superstars with team basketball

or at least that's part of - and it's a lot easier to defend the other team when you're not bending over backwards to defend one superstar

diabolical i tell you

Considering all the crap AZ sports we've watched of late, this is such a breath of fresh air. It appears our tricks will work against almost any team outside of the elite few (OKC/Denver/Houston). Nobody wants to play us. I'm just afraid someone will try to poach Ott!
