Although the Suns are favored in this round of the series, the Timberwolves in the G1 game are quite tough, and Booker is performing badly in the Suns Big Three. Beal needs to step up, but Booker didn't care about losing the G1 game, and Booker said even more: You don't have to overreact to the loss, we also started 0-1 against the Clippers last season, and it is clear that Booker is still very confident that the Suns can reverse the situation, but the Suns still need the Big Three to collectively exert their power if they want to win.
