The starting 5 also dished 29 assists with 10 from KD and 8 from Booker (and 6 from Nurkic), but what was most impressive was the poise down the stretch… It didn’t feel like the Suns were going to give the game away and that the Jazz were just trying to catch up and tie the entire time, though Lauri, Collins, Sexton, THT and even Clarkson and Keyonte George at the end played out of their minds just to tie in regulation and the first overtime and almost found a way to tie after the 2nd OT.
Was an awesome, awesome game and have a HUGE deal of respect for the Jazz for ALWAYS keeping it close :-) they got a great All Star in Lauri for years to come!
For the Suns, they still have to figure out how to keep the TOs down… When the first TO came on the very first few plays of the game, (out of bounds pass), it just seemed like the Suns won’t be able to run away as they usually do in the first 3 quarters. Good thing we got KD who’s probably the most cold blooded assassin out there, able to make any shot he wants one on one. Shoutout to EG who hit big in the first OT and also Grayson hitting half of his 6 threes.
Can’t wait to see how well oiled this team is going to be once Beal comes back in 3 weeks time :-) Awesome game!!! And ABOVE .500 once more! GO SUNS!!!
I’m continuing to be impressed and happy with Greyson Allen. He seems to just keep his head down and play well on both ends of the court, saw some wild huddle from him last night too. He’s also shooting the 3 ball with ridiculous accuracy right now.
