After Action Report

The Suns blew the doors off the Warriors 120-97. Suns torched the Warriors on the offensive end. Suns' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Suns carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one. The Suns bench chemistry carried them. Warriors' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. It broke open after the break.

What tipped it

  • Warriors · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Warriors · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Suns · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Suns · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
  • Suns · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
