Isaiah Thomas gets real on Suns' playoff failure

Isaiah Thomas gets real on Suns' playoff failure

Isaiah Thomas did not have a big role for the Phoenix Suns this year, but he had an interesting takeaway after the team's disappointing exit from the NBA Playoffs by being swept by the Minnesota Timberwolves, saying that despite having the trio of Kevin Durant, Devin Booker and Bradley Beal, the team did not have a point guard to properly distribute the ball to them. “I think we just tried something that really hasn't been done before with not having a point guard, and I think it just paid a toll on us in a series where we played against a young energetic physical team, that kind of knew, okay we're going to pressure these guys the whole game to see if they can last,” Isaiah Thomas said on All The Smoke. It was a massively disappointing exit for the Suns, who brought in Kevin Durant and Bradley Beal to play with homegrown star Devin Booker, hoping to win a title.
