We need a bit better out of Morris at the back PG but he’s putting good effort on D and isn’t a player the Suns can exploit like they could with MacLaughlin.
Finch has been top notch coaching this series keeping Conley and the bigs fresh and keeping the team focused.
Really odd game from him today, lol.

Great Win! Domination the entire 4th…
Allen injured the same ankle he did in game 1, and it bent way way over. Like 90 degrees…. I don’t think he’ll be back for game 3

Anybody at all scared of the Suns now????
I said the whole time, just keep close and Suns will turn the ball over at inopportune times. They are the WORST 4th quarter team in the league. That will get magnified in the playoffs even more.
I said all along this team isn’t very good at all and we should dominate them.
Wolves in 5

The only thing I can nitpick on Towns tonight are his last two turnovers, and that’s only because it seemed he was being too unselfish.

We got to see both Jaden's and Gobert's A game on defense tonight. Things of beauty.
The Suns were also one of the hottest teams coming into the play offs

Was out dishwasher shopping since ours crapped out, and having some dinner. Tried to listen in-between stops and made it home in time to catch the last 4 minutes.
Nice to see Jaden have a big game.
Shows the Suns (and national viewers) the Wolves are an extremely balanced and deep team if they can all play without their heads up their ass like they did for a few games.
Hopefully the Wolves get #1 in PHX on Friday.
