After Action Report
The Suns buried the Trail Blazers 121-101. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Suns cashed in. The Suns steamroller is in full effect right now; Suns' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Suns locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Suns per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.
