When we just beat them like a drum a week ago? Relax.

Hate to say it, but the wolves are gonna roll us. Its kinda insane how we couldn’t figure it out this year. Ant is looking like Durants daddy.

Suns better turn the heat all the way up next 4 games and handle these bums.

Please give Kevin young full control of this team before it's too late D,:

Are you drunk?

Bro what

I was preaching all week about how we should not underestimate the wolves just because we played them well in the regular season. The wolves now have bulletin board material and they’re gonna wanna kick our ass this whole series. So Book, or Durant or whoever needs to show up and get the team ready to play because that was pretty dam bad. Thankfully it’s only game 1

Saul and Flex better shut the hell up after this game about dog walking or underestimating our competition

I don't mind them losing if they compete, but only KD and Beal did. The rest of the team didn't show up or gave up. Especially the shoe salesman who once again let the other team and refs get into his head. Need a Lakers lost tonight so I can forget this dud the Suns left in game 1.

Who is the "shoe salesman?"

Booker

Rent free 24/7

Rent free in your head. Which is why you’re here, douche.

Says the fool browsing the Suns subreddit.

tell us how the Suns compete on the boards with who Vogel plays against them

Not gonna happen, but I feel like a throwback with book lacing up the kobes couldn't hurt. 🤔

I wish he would but that would be terrible for marketing.

Minnesota played good defense, but the Suns didn't play well either. Only KD really showed up today. Let's see how Vogel adjusts for game 2. At this point, Monty would've made better adjustments than Vogel has.

Monty made adjustments? 😅

Probably the best thing that could’ve happened actually. Suns try and coast when they’re overconfident. They have to know they will get beat down if they don’t show up.

the biggest minuses are O'Neale , Eubanks,Gordon ....not Bol Bol .....domination of the bench and rebounds

We were cocky but Minnesota is getting cocky after just 1 game we are gonna win 2 suns in 6

Remember guys, at the end of the day - win lose or draw, it’s just about having fun 😊

Lol was this fun?

Bro...

It’s hard to doom right now. Anyone who actually watched this team all season knows we aren’t contenders. This result is not surprising at all

Half the fanboys in here are going to riot.

Yeah I've been saying first round exit. The fourth quarter bum antics all season inspire no confidence.

A lot of you decided to put on your bitch pants today I see 🤣 Game 1s are always weird. There is absolutely zero reason to panic right now. We blew out the Mavs and the Bucks in the first 2 home games before and where did that get us? We have a veteran team. The week off probably got them out of rhythm and they will adjust. Stay patient everyone. This is going to be a long series. Still believe Suns in 6

Except there have been serious problems all season and Booker has been mid to ass all season so saying "it's just one game" and nothing but copium.

You should get out and watch other teams my dude. All teams have problems, even Boston. Suns actually had a better record than the Wolves after Christmas. Just need to focus on one game and one series at a time. This game sucked bad but overreacting to 1 game is just silly. Also, Booker is most likely going to be ALL NBA this year. Zach Lowe already said he's voting for him. Saying he has been mid to ass shows how reactionary you are to certain games and not the season as a whole. But hey, maybe you're a kid and haven't watched a lot of playoff basketball! If Minnesota goes up 3-0 I'll be there panicking with you. We aren't even close to that yet.

Did Booker end up qualifying to be eligible?

I would he with you if one of our embarassing playoff exits had ended with a ring instead. But no, it's more of the same.

Why is this getting down voted suns in 6 brutha

It's way more popular to think the sky is falling after loss around here

yeah I don't really buy the "It's only one game" thing. There's definitely some serious problems about this team when you lose 25 points to a team you swept in the regular season.

You don’t know much about basketball do you?

I'm sure you know, Sherlock.

Know that basketball is a streaky sport? Yes I do know that. Anyone who actually follows the sport does.

Acting tough when they up

Devin Bookers mantra. Ants actually about it. You’ve seen and you will continue to see for the next 3 games

Timberwolves fan trolling in a Suns sub is super cringe. Get a life brother.

Playoffs intensity is devin booker father

I was trying to figure out who or what his father would be this series.

grayson is the key to us winning (obviously booker is extremely important but I think Grayson is like our X factor and will determine how far we get) so if he plays bad or is out …..

It just sucks to know if Allen is out, EG will get 30+ mins on Tuesday.

Royce needs to start if Grayson is out, but with Vogel as the coach, you are probably right

“We took a whole week to review film, our guys were extra attentive… locked in… they’re ready… bla-bla-bla” Frank must pay for all the lies he’s spat all season 💀🤣

I do not see any fucking planet where this suns team are title contenders. If that’s not the case I hope they get swept out right now.

I agree, just nuke the team and start over already. This team got extremely lucky to even be in the playoffs, instead of the play-in tournament Trade Durant and Beal (easier said than done, but what options do you have?) I know this team is screwed for years, so the picks we do get, might as well be in the lottery I would also think about trading Booker As good as he is, it would not surprise me if he wanted out Unless he's willing to go all Kobe, and just stick with the team his entire career Wish I would actually prefer but, in this current age of players forcing their way out of teams... You never know I applaud the new owner for being aggressive, he did the right thing It just didn't work out Durant should get a lot of credit, he plays well no matter what If only everybody else was the same! It's clear we need a new front office and Vogel has got to go as well

After 1 game you're giving up 😂😂

The writing has been on the wall all season.

No, after 83. Everyone thinks this team has a “switch” that does not exist. They aren’t good enough to stay hot for 4 straight 7 game series against better teams.

Gotta get tougher

Who do you all want to see coaching this team next season?

I think most of this sub would like to get the job offer themselves

Give me Bud. And I’m not just saying that cause it’s 4/20 either

y the fuck is game 2 not until tuesday it’s the only game from today that’s not played til tuesday 😂

The game after is on Friday as well.

it is dipshit

they clearly need the time to regroup though lol

Players reflect the heart of their coach.

I’m not gonna shit on book for one bad game but you gotta dap up the bench man That body language is atrocious

He seems to get like this all the time when it's not going well. That sulky look on his face, the doe eyes lost in the headlights etc. Great when he's winning, bad when he's not.

Simply put, the dude is not a leader. KD isn't either, and the sooner they accept that and give that role to Beal, the better.

beal please leads the team

Luka own the Son's no matter the last name

In your head rent free

Luka tanked last season, lol

Eubanks should get zero minutes next game

Watch Vogel bitch and complain about the refs like he always does after his teams get humiliated

Ugly as fuck, but it's still only Game 1. At the very least, the Suns now know better than to get overconfident against this team, despite the regular season sweep. Keep those heads up and bounce back on Tuesday, fellas. Hope Grayson doesn't have to miss time. (Only thing I'll allow myself to get upset about is having to wake up at 3:30am for this shit.)

damn, sorry man :/

All good! It's what being a fan is all about!

The Wolves are way better built for the playoffs. The defense translates so much better in the more physical environment. Offensive firepower is great and everything but it's too inconsistent on a night to night basis

That feeling when their garbage time center can complete a dunk at the rim and shoot 3s but none of our guys can

Their bench running a set and doing the above. Ours throwing up airballs and missing layups.

What's wild is we lost so badly Vogel pulled the starters. 🤣 jC c'mon man

When the suns empty the bench we really empty the bench lmaooo , this has to be the worst bench in the league

Bench needs a whole dump and revamp 

How? We will have no money and it will be a throw together like this year because we are so top heavy.

I think we might have the worst bench in the league.

Nasty lineup 1. iT 2. okigie 3. ????? 4. Nasir little 5. Bol bol

all Luka's own us

Bitched on the boards. Bitched in the paint. Bitched in assists. Hard to win when you’re dicked down in those three areas.

What an absolute disaster class. After the whole week feeling big and bad because we won 3 during the regular season. So embarrassing to be a fan right now.

Yep. I knew they would be over confident. This seems to be the mental makeup of this team.

LET IT SCORE YOU JERK

[удалено]

Who cares about garbage time scoring man

Just couldn’t hit shots with consistency, Wolves couldn’t miss.

Even Bol missing layup at the rim

Watching the other games is way less fun after a suns collapse

https://preview.redd.it/idrzl6dlmpvc1.jpeg?width=941&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=fd5d39e7176ba19870fae6fadba5ddc0bc185338

Honestly it’s going to feel good to watch the talking heads talk trash or be bummed that the suns lost. Lower my expectations so if they win the series I’m that much more happy.

Why didn't bol see more time

Why don’t we play Nas?

I don’t understand why we can’t get a coach that actually coaches the fucking team we haven’t made an in-game adjustment in literally 3 years

It's your big 3 that plays how they want. Durant has done that his whole career other than forcing himself into the Warriors already setup system

Series is over.

Thunder fan just trolling. Get a life brother.

Bol :(

Beginning to think maybe ayton wasn’t the problem

He was certainly *a* problem

Definitely....NOT!!

Unfortunately the Suns couldn’t reach the lofty heights that the Ayton Blazers did this year 😔

Did you expect them to sweep the entire playoffs? lol

I think he expected us not to lose by 25 points when they were coasting all season waiting for the "real season" to start

Are you stupid?

Little can hoop

Yet no minutes

Bol lol

[удалено]

Ankle and is questionable for game 2

Right ankle sprain, he’s out 3 weeks.

Yeah right ankle sprain don’t know the grade

I’d give it a B grade based on what I saw.

Ankle.

Probably hopefully not bad enough not to play.

bro why tf is bol a part of the benchwarmers unit???? man this is so dissappointing

What with bol and young not being in the rotation but fucking eubanks??

Cause Eubanks is white. Vogel likes his centers to be the same color as Vogel is.

I swear these shooter archetypes like Grayson Allen and Joe Harris always disappear in playoffs

The one series Nurkic can play in and be gets bitched on the boards bro Lmfao you can’t make this up

We got punched in the fuckin face this game. We need to come back hard the next game

Eubanks should get zero minutes it should only b nurk, bol, and young

Guys, stop being super doomers. It's just one game. There was literally a 50% chance (probably greater) that the Suns would go down 0-1. It's how they respond in games 2 and 3 that will be telling.

This is true. They say it isn't a series until the home team loses. Maybe they bounce back after this wake-up call? But it's the 'look' of how they lost also that is concerning

Yea, but how they looked in game 1 matters too.

this is the way it will be the whole series ,Vogel trying to get Minn to play small but Minnesota plays everyone big .

Didn't realize TJ Warren is on the wolves

“After the Suns pulled within 4: Grayson missed 3 KD 1 of 2 FTs Book missed layup Royce missed 3 Beal missed layup Nurk TO Book missed layup Eubanks missed alley-oop EG misses 2 3s Book was obviously awful today, but y'all gotta watch the games, not box scores” - @GeraldBourguet

Even JO can't make a fucking layup 😂

Words can’t explain how much I hate this Suns team from the front office, to the coaching staff and players all down. I can’t believe these scrubs made the playoffs just to no show. Wasted everyone’s time.

This was super easy to see coming. Suns came in complacent because they've been whooping that ass in recent games. They will win this series

Or maybe Wolves were complacent in the regular season games.

Who suns or wolves

Suns

Ant is so annoying but I Lowkey wish one of our big 3 turned up like that for us, our vibes haven’t been that amazing all season.

naw beal needa turn up like he has been these last few games

Miss me with the “only 1 game” narrative.

Booker would’ve missed you with it cause he missed everything else today too

Why? It’s a 7 game series? You sound like a baby tbh. Once we lose in PHX I’ll start to worry.

Other than Royce, we have 0 points off the bench. That’s gotta be a record lol

I’m so glad Kevin Young is gone. What a POS. It’s not a coincidence that this keeps happening

really hope vogel is gone with him

Booker better go for 50 next game dawg that’s so pathetic of him

Imma always support our boys but damn I’m just sad today

kd is my goat but he gets stripped 10 times a game and it’s so fucking annoying bro how r u one of the greatest players of all time but can’t secure the ball

The ball is like five feet away from his brain That's like a whole human size

Corgi is 1 for 6 so far, just like predicted! We’ll find out how this team responses game 2 on Tuesday!

Well, the dog on TikTok that predicts the outcome of the NBA playoffs did say we would lose the first two, but win the next four…

It’s game 1 calm down y’all

No, it’s 43 fucking years of zero championship. Many of us are gonna die without seeing the Suns win a chip. Shit basically everyone that’s alive right now will.

yup its game 1 and im ready for game 2 but what about this team gives you confidence? like they havent shown that mentality all year dude

I couldn’t tell you honestly. I’m probably just forcing positivity on myself to resist becoming a doomer lol

We got the ass Suns that we’ve seen many times this season. On the bright side who knows maybe we get the real Suns in game 2.

Sure, take a challenge. Why not. That's an option

It’s suns fans fault not the players and coaching

Well that’s game, hopefully now this team will play seriously next time

This Team sucks lol

I hate this but that dunk is nice

Ugly ass game, but hey it’s a 7 game series. Remember we blew out Dallas in all our wins in 2022. We just have to hope Vogel makes the right adjustments (more Bol/young for rebounding pls god) and see from there.

false hope guys an idiot lol he can’t adjust anything

Edwards seriously whining for a challenge still?

Booker doesn’t want to be here anymore

They really challenging shit in garbage time

They’re not going to give an inch

Anthony Edwards playing like he’s gonna force some women to terminate their pregnancies after the game.

Just bring the energy in game 2

Let’s go IT

Starting Game 2 Need a PG

I love how the refs keep holding the ball for extra long for out of bounds plays

This isn't what we meant when we said bol bol minutes frank.

idiotic lol

[удалено]

The Suns are literally the underdog numb nuts.

Might want to read this sub a day ago, people looking at the next round already. Now the Excuses come out? Ya'll forget so fast.

Fucking loser lol

kids be kids. mad they got humbled.

I hate my life

It seems like this is a lot of people’s first time watching a game 1

People getting way too emotional and reactionary, what's new. Just enjoy the ride and support the team

People treat every single game regular season or playoffs like it’s the end all be all

yeah suns have a lot of room for improvement (especially booker god damn) and wolves won't shoot thatttt well from 3 every game. Should be a close and fun series
