I'm assuming that includes the 12 points Jokic scored in overtime after Ayton fouled out in January.

And he averaged the same on about 5 less shot attempts per game. Suns in 6

Ayton has 20 points off 13 shots
Jokic has 22 off 22 shots.

Ayton also out-rebounding him

Suns are definitely a legit title contender. I wasn't sure about that until just now. They really ARE as good as their record.

They did this with a fairly quiet night from Booker... and Chris Paul looked like the long rest helped his shoulder... a lot.

In addition to Ayton, Gordon was nails on Booker. That's a really good matchup for Denver, especially when they can force Booker to guard Gordon on the other end. The Suns could have run high screens on Gordon, but it didn't matter when they just blew the roof off.

A great night for the Suns and Cats.

And let's hope LAC and Utah go 7 with several OT games to wear them out while the Suns get healthy.

Talk about balance and depth-

Suns starters-

low scorer- 11 points
top scorer- 18 points

5 bench players scored between 7-10 points

I gave up on the Suns a decade ago after being pretty hardcore for the previous 20 years. I should probably come back huh? I literally didn't even know they were doing well until about 2 days ago.

It depends if you're watching the playoffs. The Suns and Jazz are a joy to watch. Atlanta is fun, too. The Sixers are the unsoaked Grape Nuts of basketball. Brooklyn is the megateam without a fan base who everyone is rooting against. And everyone is over pulling for the Clippers. So yeah, anyone should get on board with the Suns.

Sarver is actually diminished by the team's masterful rebuild under Jones. I doubt he even has the power to pull the rug out from under the franchise again and lowball these established and rising star players. He's going to have to luxury up and play toward the new salary ceilings yet to be built, or else lock himself in a toilet stall in Veterans Memorial Coliseum.

Yea if Sarver blows this up AGAIN, he will be rightfully run out on rails.

That second half offensive efficiency was almost unbelievable. The Suns spread you out and CP3 carves you up. Fun to watch
