A los Phoenix Suns are not worth half measures. It’s a mindset associated with your new property, with the millionaire Mat Ishbia And that competitive mentality. When signed Kevin Durant Barely exchanging assets, the bet was clear: go for the ring. And after the first months of adaptation, the Suns are serious. In what seemed like the great elimination of the first round, against the Los Angeles Clippers, there was no story. 4-1after a last and impressive victory (136-130) thanks to the exhibition of its two best players, Devin Booker y Kevin Durant.
They signed one of those clashes that justify considering them as the top favorite for everything. Because despite the fact that the Clippers, without Kawhi Leonard in most of the games, fight until the end, they collide with a wall that will always be there. Devin Booker signed 47 points, 8 rebounds, 10 assists. No one has scored as much as him in the first round. Durant supported with 31+6+4. In five post-season games they sign 25 points, at least, each. It hadn’t happened since the mythical couple Kobe Bryant and Shaquille O’Neal.
Don’t miss a thing with NBA League Pass!
Your partner works. There’s love. Everything unleashed in the third quarter, with the Suns scoring 50 points, with a recital by Booker. Triples, after the dribble, in transition… An income that made up for the nine down (61-70, 24) at halftime. “It was something spiritual. There’s a connection between everyone,” Durant said. BookerFor his part, he was full of praise: “I have no words. I followed him a lot before having a personal relationship and it’s something incredible.”
Booker’s display was spiritual
It is the construction of the top favorite. Due to its unparalleled offensive potential, in which there is a demand for the medium-distance shot (hallelujah!). And the way to compete. Against some Clippers who grabbed the tie with Norman Powell’s repertoire (27) and a 0-15 run, they answered temperately. Booker opened up from midrange and Chris Paul stole for Durant’s dunk.
The series ends 4-1 and the level equality does not correspond to the final result, but the Suns have the gunpowder to be candidates for everything. Clearly, the Clippers showed how to hurt them, especially physically and vertically to the rim. But the Suns had an answer. Booker and Durant’s is the most important.
