The Phoenix Suns dropped a 2nd straight game to the San Antonio Spurs as they came out of the gates completely cold.
At one point, the Suns trailed by 26; they entered halftime down by 20.
However, for the majority of the 2nd half, it seemed as if Phoenix would make a remarkable comeback.
With around 6 minutes to go in the 4th quarter, the Suns tied it up.
Unfortunately, from there, it was all Spurs as they went on to pull away a 132-121 win.
The Suns did not trail for a single second all night long.
Devin Booker put up 31 and Kevin Durant scored 28, but the story of the night was rookie Victor Wembanyama, who scored a career-high 38 points.
Fans were not too thrilled by the defensive performance put on by the Suns.
While it is still early in the season, a 2-3 start is not what many imagined.

The Phoenix suns being 2-3 and looking absolutely lost against the Spurs is certainly an issue, right? @BillSimmons @WindhorstESPN

Spurs showed some resiliency in this series with the Suns. Phoenix needs to tighten up defensively

The Phoenix Suns should be embarrassed.

Phoenix suns are spineless, I said it.

The Phoenix Suns losing to a very young Spurs team back to back isn't what anyone expected

The Phoenix suns are a very unserious team. They still do not play defense. Time to have real discussions about this team very soon.
