00:00 I'll be honest with you, they need more out of Devin Booker.
00:05 Devin Booker was terrible yesterday at spots.
00:08 Katie was very efficient.
00:10 But I just thought that Devin Booker just did not play well offensively.
00:15 And I was shocked about how well Rudy Gobert played, because Rudy Gobert struggled mightily
00:20 versus Phoenix.
00:21 He thoroughly outplayed Yusuf Nurkic.
00:23 I thought that was going to be the opposite.
00:25 But Nurkic was bad.
00:27 Grayson Allen was bad.
00:28 The bench was bad.
00:30 That's a concern for Phoenix, right?
00:32 Because if their big three are not all clicking and scoring a ton of points, let's say like,
00:37 I don't know, 80 points between the three of them?
00:41 And the rest of the guys don't score.
00:43 They can't get to the finish line.
00:45 This Minnesota team looked really, really good.
00:48 And a lot of people were knocking the Anthony Edwards talking trash to Kevin Durant.
00:53 I'm all for it.
00:54 It was friendly.
00:55 It wasn't bad.
00:56 And KD was smiling, even though I wouldn't be.
00:59 And I thought it was good competitive basketball.
01:03 The Knicks game?
01:05 I thought Joel Embiid is definitely compromised.
01:08 And I will say this.
01:09 I knew he was compromised because he would not go inside in the second half, particularly
01:15 in the fourth quarter against Mitchell Robinson.
01:17 He stayed on the perimeter.
01:18 He could not take the banging.
01:21 And that's going to be a concern with them, obviously, because I don't think Jalen Brunson
01:25 is going to shoot eight for 26 the rest of the series.
