After Action Report
In Phoenix, the Suns snuck past the Pistons 106-103. The Pistons couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Suns. Fresh off a statement win, the Suns stayed locked in; 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. Style points be damned.
