After Action Report

In Phoenix, the Suns survived the Warriors 93-92. Suns torched the Warriors on the offensive end. The Suns owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Suns carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one. The Suns locker room is humming, and it showed. Suns' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
