Man, the Suns really don't guard well.  One effort, no rotations, little interest in closing out to shooters. 

We're hot from three because every single one of them has been wide open.

Well this is one situation that I am ok with taking as many 3s as they will give us.   If we are getting wide open 3s every time down, just bury them then.   They deserve it.

Nice start.  Gotta laugh at a 7 3" guy missing a dunk.

Should have kicked it out for a 3 🙄
Yup

So this is why Phoenix sucks. It made no sense given their roster, but apparently they don?t play any defense. Weird

Absolutely.  I'll take 100 threes in a game if every one of them is this open.

I think these are still easy.  Not going to hit everything.

My concern is at the other end.  Durant is going to do Durant things but our defense has had a lot of breakdowns too.

Good quarter offensively.  Defense needs work.

I'll take a 42 point quarter any day...defense does need to step up.
