On July 31 they beat the Wizards.

On Sun Aug 2 they beat the Mavs.

And on Tue Aug 4 they beat the Clippers.

Next up, Thur Aug 6, they face the Pacers.

The West is still insanely close just outside the 8 spot. The Grizzlies at No. 8 have a .464 winning percentage, while the Blazers, Spurs, Pelicans, Suns and Kings are all within 2 games of each other.

I wish Oubre and Baynes were able to play. If so I'd be a bit more confident that we can keep this kind of play up.

Ha, why? I'd be so thankful they traded me to a competent organization.

Pacers fall to red-hot Suns, who have won four straight games in the Disney NBA bubble.

I'm still quite amazed that their last two games against dallas and LA, they scored the very same points at 117 while their opponents had 115 each. :oldlol:

Deandre Ayton tonight with an amazing defensive performance, and good offense too. Mikal Bridges with amazing defense as usual too, that's his specialty. Both will be NBA All-Defense candidates in their careers.

Everyone who shit on the Suns for picking Cameron Johnson in the draft looks stupid rn. The kid has a winning mentality as a rookie. Nothing but confidence, and comes up with clutch plays all the time. A sharpshooter from 3 and he's been way better than people predicted defensively as well as athletically. He's gonna be the type of 3 and D wing that contenders love on their team, not crazy high usage but efficient on both sides of the court.

Crazy how much going on a diet during the cancellation made Saric look like a new player again. He's been huge for us in these 4 games. He looks so much better than he did all regular season.

And who tf is Cameron Payne and why is he playing so good for us so far...

Warren today vs Suns - 16 points on 7-20 shooting, 1-5 from 3pt

Considerations today vs Pacers - Didn't miss a single shot all day long.

Pacers got fleeced.

Suns have been fantastic on both ends. They deserve the praise and 8 seed. They seem like a completely different focused team, despite missing guys.

Yeah at this point my pick for the 8-9 "series" would be the Blazers and Suns. Memphis has completely imploded and without JJJ and a tough schedule I just don't see them recovering.

Yep. Suns and Blazers would be amazing.

Yeah I just hope we don't see the annoying Suns cultists climb back up from the rock they have been hiding under since the mid-2000's. I have never seen a team that didn't even make the finals worshiped as much as that group was. The Steve Nash love was out of this world despite him being the most overrated player this side of Devon Booker.

agreed on all takes. cam johnson has been great, he's smart and makes the right play every single time.

mikal is an amazing defender, absolutely elite.

and payne...wtf, how did we get lucky to get him?

If you laid money on Phoenix being undefeated after 4 games of the restart, you'd be rich.

I figured one team would come in and sweep the bubble. I figured which team it would be (I thought Raptors) completely wrong.

The funny thing, is I don't find the Suns run fluky. I mean sure, I didn't expect them to start 4-0... But they have a really talented young roster. Booker+Ayton are going to be an elite duo for many years. Then they have role players that go off at random times.

Oubre should get traded.

Suns finished 8-0 in Disney NBA bubble games.

They still missed the playoffs, but deserve to take a bow.
