Under the leadership of St. Paul, the Suns stood out from the West and stood on the stage of the Finals, although they were not able to successfully win the cup, but let the team management see the hope of being crowned king in the league, in order to achieve this goal, the Suns also spared no cost, using the team's potential new stars and many draft picks as trading chips, forming a core team of Durant, Booker and Beal's Big Three, but their performance disappointed fans, and only played the sixth record in the West in the regular season.
In the first round of the playoffs, facing their swept opponent Timberwolves, the Suns collapsed, allowing the opponent to win three games in a row and take a 3-0 lead. In a desperate situation, Durant stepped up, and the all-round play of offense and defense in the first half helped the Suns always maintain the lead in the score, but in the second half, Edwards, the little fan of the Grim Reaper, began to break out, and under his leadership, the Timberwolves also won 122-116, allowing the Big Three to suffer a round trip!
Death finally strikes, and Bill stabs him in the back
Although Durant is the oldest of the Suns' Big Three, he is the only player who has proven that he can turn the tide at a critical moment, and in the fourth playoff game that can no longer be lost, Durant forcibly turned on the state of death, although the Timberwolves in order to limit his play, crazy to wrap and assist him in defense, but Durant used his soft touch to dissolve the Timberwolves' defense again and again, hitting 12 of 17 shots in the game, contributing 33 points, 8 rebounds, and 5 assists and 4 blocks in an offensive and defensive performance.
Booker, who had previously performed poorly, also seized the opportunity of the vacancy after Durant contained the defense, and played his highest performance in the playoffs this season, not only shooting hot, but also creating 21 free throw opportunities in 13 of 21 shots, and finally scored a team-high 49 points, becoming Durant's right-hand man, as for the other giant Beal, only 9 points in 4 of 13, the performance was not even as good as a role player, and the stabbing of death directly led to the fate of being swept.
Huazi didn't understand the world and sent the idol out of the game with his own hands
Like the Suns' twin stars, the Timberwolves also relied on the double champion to continue their lives in this game, and the high-tech Towns blossomed inside and out, constantly reading and changing the Suns' defense, hitting 4 of 6 shots from beyond the three-point line in the game, cutting 28 points, 10 rebounds and 3 assists, and without a single turnover.
And Edwards is not merciful in the face of his idol Durant, in the first quarter of 5 in 0, only 9 points in the first half, Huazi suddenly broke out in the second half, relying on speed to eat defenders to kill the inside and outside to make the Suns miserable, and finally Edwards also handed over 40 + 9 + 6 comprehensive personal data, personally sent his idol Durant away.
In order to form the Big Three, the Suns have overdrawn the future, but judging from their performance this season, there is no hope of hitting the championship at all, and now Durant has reached the end of his career, Beal's bad contract makes it difficult to send him away, and the Suns have been doomed to a tragic fate for many years to come!
