    What’s funny is that the first time rockets played him a few years ago, I was like he should be a Rocket because I thought he would be a really good scorer

    Hate on Deni Avdija all you want, you gotta admit he's a big time baller.

    The guy is a 3-point shot away from being a superstar.

    He played like trash 1st 2 games of the series, but was solid the rest of the series.

    24-25 season without FVV they were 11-11, 41-19 with
    23-24 season without FVV they were 3-11, 37-32 with

    FVV value goes beyond his stats.

    If everything stays the same, rotation would be

    Reed / Holiday / JD
    Amen / Okogie
    Brooks / Tari / Tate
    Bari / DFS
    Alpi / Capela

    Jalen misses a big chunk of the season (hamsting), no FVV, no Adam (for a big chunk), does this team still finish top 5?

    I don't see the Suns beating either GSW or the Clippers in the next play-in round.

    I should also point out that you said Jalen Greens turnovers in the 4th period were hurting the Suns.

    I do not remember any turnovers, and the Play by play on ESPN shows 0 turnovers by Green in the 4th period

    Can you provide the time stamp for these turnovers?
