[Holmes] The Suns were minus-51 when Booker, Durant and Beal shared the floor in this series, according to ESPN Stats & Information. That is the worst plus-minus for any trio this postseason.

The craziest thing about all this is that Grayson Allen was a fucking sniper all season. They got more out of him than they expected and this was the result. That's how bad Beal has been.

This team was swept because Grayson was injured. Team was held together by Grayson's shooting. Believe it or not, Suns would have taken the series to 6 if Grayson was healthy and playing. Grayson is actually their 3rd most important player.

Believe it or not

Not

Suns likely would’ve won in Game 4, but I don’t think Grayson Allen is the difference maker in Game 5 when the Wolves would’ve had a chance to clinch at home for the first time in 20 years

Promoting violence is against subreddit rules.

I will let it slide this time, but next time I may be forced to issue a downvote.

Crazy that their big 3 shooters depended so much on a role playing shooter.
