S2E32 - Bonus: Suns ready to wrangle Mavericks

Published: May 1, 2022, 9 p.m.

The 2nd round of the NBA Playoffs is officially underway! The Phoenix Suns have eliminated the New Orleans Pelicans in six games and will face the Dallas Mavericks, who defeated the Jazz in six games as well. Our journey to that ever-so-elusive chip is 25% complete. 4 wins down, 12 to go. 

The Suns Mode Bonus episode this weekend is focused mainly on two things: the Suns' amazing closeout win in game 6 as well as a preview of the series ahead vs the Mavericks. 

Game 6 was absolutely magical, and certainly one of the most memorable Suns playoff performances of my lifetime. 

  • F*** Jae Crowder
  • Devin Booker and his dramatic game 6 return
  • Team defense
  • Cam Johnson
  • Deandre Ayton and his dominant series. 
  • GAME SIX CHRIS
  • R.I.P.

The other half of this episode is based on what we'll see against the Mavericks. 

  • Amazing guard play. Doncic. Booker. Brunson. Paul.
  • Devin Booker's anticipated matchup
  • How will the Mavericks match up with Ayton? 
  • Differences in pace
  • Clutch minutes
  • Never sleep

Aside from Suns vs Mavericks, there is a ton of great playoff basketball left to be played. For the last 5 minutes of the podcast, catch my (far too) early predictions for the other three series between the Bucks/Celtics, 76ers/Heat and Warriors/Grizzlies. We have the opportunity to see some really competitive series here in the second round; and we all know the most competitive rounds are the most fun.

Thank you very much for tuning into the Suns Mode Bonus episode for this week. You can expect a new episode on Thursday, as new episodes are released every Thursday at midnight, AZ time. 

Remember to spread love and #ValleyExcellence, and enjoy the beautiful amount of Playoff basketball ahead. Gotta appreciate it while we got it.
