Although the Phoenix Suns still find themselves atop the Western Conference, the streets of NBA Twitter takes no prisoners.
The Suns were again defeated and embarrassed by the Dallas Mavericks, the latest installment in the rivalry taking place on Monday night.
Luka Doncic again had a 30-point outing against Phoenix in what was a relatively easy win for the Mavericks to even the season series up at 1-1. The Suns took care of Dallas on opening night back in Phoenix.
“He sees gaps to the paint right away. You’re caught in-between letting him score 40 or letting him do what he did tonight and get 30 and everybody else gets corner threes," Suns coach Monty Williams said on Docic.
"He just had a really good rhythm. If you give him the same defense over and over again, he figures out ways to pick it apart. They have guys around the floor that can make shots. (Spencer) Dinwiddie's threes were all off the dribble, late clock – what are you going to do about that? A couple that we gave up in the corner, maybe more than a couple, I scratch my head because we can cover those. We just didn’t do a good job tonight.”
Twitter agrees:

Devin Booker does all that talking and soon as he plays Luka it’s quiet with all due respect 🤣

I can’t wait for Monty Williams to say something like “we didn’t respect their three-point shooting tonight” for the third or fourth time this season.

The Suns hope to move on when they host the Boston Celtics on Wednesday.
