Y'all trippin

Phoenix has one of the most balanced/fluent rosters I this whole competition

 

[Pugz]

this is tough but the three main guys for phoenix all need two balls each.

 

[dez]

Think of all the buckets tho

Idk if defensively SA slow em

 

[RipCity32]

Suns for me.

Idk I thought I put together a solid team. Star in Russy, solid rim protection. Gay would put up probably 20ppg. 
 
Tristan off the bench, great rebounder. Hardaway the 3pt guy off the bench. It's not an easy matchup though.

I like both teams. But I feel like San An has an answer for the Suns. Thomas is good defensively and I think Lance and Giannis on the wing is a good tandem to stopping Crawford and Gay. Anthony Davis is a beast down low on both ends and Millsap is a tough defender as well. That's not to say that the Suns wouldn't get buckets but the Spurs may just be a poison matchup for them. I like the Spurs in this particular matchup more, but I like how GMF surrounded Westbrook but I think the Spurs take this...
