The Phoenix Suns are on the brink of elimination for the first time this postseason. That’s got to be a scary sight, right?
The Suns, who have eight players on their active roster with no playoff experience prior to this season, are on the cusp of their championship run ending, a possibility that seemed improbable just a week and a half ago when they went up 2-0 in the series. But this is the reality they now face, and they say they’re embracing it.
“You have to embrace where you are in the series, and from there, you have to focus and channel your emotions and energy towards the next game, and that’s tomorrow night,” Suns starting forward Jae Crowder said.
