On February 8, Beijing time, although the Bulls played a 41-25 single-quarter score in the fourth quarter, the Suns still defeated the Eastern Dark Horse Bulls 127-124 on the road to win the 12th of the last 13 regular season games. What's even more exciting is that the Suns also continued a law of unbeaten this season in this game, in one case, it has won 33 games, highlighting the potential of the championship.
Although the Suns won by only 3 points in the end, with the Bulls scoring 41 points in the fourth quarter and losing 16 points in a single quarter, the Suns once led by as many as 27 points against the Bulls, who were at the top of the East for a long time this season, showing super dominance. In fact, the Bulls' performance in this game is not bad, with 47.8% shooting and 38.5% three-point shooting to score 124 points, but the Suns still withstood the pressure and laughed to the end.
The Suns withstood the Bulls' frenzied counterattack in the fourth quarter, allowing Demar DeRozan, who scored 15 points on 7-of-9 shooting in the final quarter and scored 38 points from 59.3 percent shooting, to become an "empty slasher" and continue the law of unbeaten, that is, so far this season, the Suns have not lost in the regular season before the start of the fourth quarter, reaching a staggering 33 wins!
What is this concept? So far this season, the Suns are the only team in the league to maintain a full victory in the regular season at the beginning of the fourth quarter, even the Warriors, who currently rank second in the league, have lost 4 games in such games, the defending champion Bucks have lost one such game, and the Nets, which have the Big Three, have lost 5 such regular season games, and the Lakers have been reversed by opponents in such games 7 times.
Last season' Suns went all the way to the Finals and won two Finals without being favored, and before the start of the season, many thought that the Suns would repeat the mistakes of the Heat of a year ago, and they were firmly at the top of the league's regular season record list. After these baptisms, the Sun has become more stable, and this season has won 33 games in the leading regular season before the start of the fourth quarter, highlighting the championship potential!
With varying degrees of problems among the league's great powers, who says the Suns don't have a chance to win this season?
