That was a fun game.
Suns got two players (Booker and Durant) that are down right unguardable, and got two bigs (Eubanks and Nurkić) that play totally different that they can utilize accordingly.
John Collins was a great pickup. He’s rebounding on both ends like a menace and finishing really well in the paint. Remind me a bit of Gonzaga Brandon Clarke.
Flashbacks
I agree, this team fits really well. I’m not sold on Giddey, though. Feel like trading him with some picks may be the right call eventually and trying to get another good big to pair with Holmgren.
Chet has a great feel for the game. That block followed by the ballsy three pointer was huge. OKC’s team is looking really complete and balanced these days.
Collin making so many key plays down the stretch. Penetrating and finding teammates like Kessler, Fontecchio, and George in the 4th Quarter and scoring from all parts of the floor. The floater was with about a minute to go was questionable, but really good decision-making by him in the second half.
