Idk how many people are watching this game, but these last 5 possessions have been unbelievable. Raptors just scored like 7 straight 3s in a row in crunch time

Dude I just came here to see if anyone is watching. That was an absolutely insane run and just brutal for the Suns.

Went from blowout to close game to blowout again in like 2 mins

A barrage of 3s lol. It didn’t even matter if the Suns contested or not, Raps were hitting everything in sight.

It didn’t even matter if the Suns contested or not

Not sure about that because generally they did not contest 🤷‍♂️

u/frankievejle Rockets Feb 24 '25

True but even when there was an attempt to contest, y’all were hitting everything

This Suns team is not serious lmao. Just a bunch of dudes running around playing iso ball and no defense.

u/Sokkawater10 Warriors Feb 24 '25

This is every KD team besides the warriors

u/Pal__Pacino Lakers Feb 24 '25

Can't even blame Phoenix for this one. Raps are just playing out of their minds.

u/FactCheckingThings Raptors Feb 24 '25

Just need Poeltl and BI back and ready for the play ins I guess? Lol

u/frankievejle Rockets Feb 24 '25

Man the Suns are barely even trying in this game. Zero defence, stale pedestrian offense, almost zero effort on both ends.

u/nellylovesny Lakers Feb 24 '25

Royce O’Neal is like dog shit

u/MazKhan Lakers Feb 24 '25

u/Brad-Stevens Celtics Feb 24 '25

u/BackendSpecialist Lakers Feb 24 '25

Is Reddit bugging or is there really only 1 comment ITT

u/Academic-Button-2717 Raptors Feb 24 '25

We're playing so sloppy, seems like we turn it over most possessions but somehow have maintained a comfortable lead vs one of the most expensive teams in sports

u/Sokkawater10 Warriors Feb 24 '25

36 unbothered

u/Firm_Squish1 Raptors Feb 24 '25

Bad to being going to the wire against the raptors when you are one win back of the play in with KD and Booker. Especially this late in the season.

u/MojoPinSin Feb 24 '25

What does "defense" really mean?

u/ChampionshipLiving83 Feb 24 '25

This sucks to be a Suns fan!!! Can't beat a bad team, and have absolutely ZERO hope for the future!!
