The Phoenix Suns are COOKED 📉

The Gil's Arena podcast crew exposes why the Phoenix Suns will not win in the NBA playoffs this year. Their biggest issues is having too many star NBA players to go to. Kevin Durant, Devin Booker, and Bradley Beal can all score the ball but it is hard to distribute and get them all the shots they need.
Kenyon Martin relates it to his time with the Denver Nuggets as he tells Gilbert Arenas the reason the Phoenix Suns will fail and be cooked this year. This inside the NBA take is apart of the Gil's Arena podcast show every week looking at the NBA 2025 Season with NBA veterans breaking down the game. Will the Phoenix Suns' big three have a great season follow along to find out.

Gil’s Arena every Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday at 11:30am PT / 2:30pm ET.

Makes you appreciate the Spurs dynasty. Their PG & SF (Johnson & Bowen) were undrafted, and their SG was a late 2nd Rd pick (Ginobli). They sure 'fit' w/ Tim Duncan tho.

Kenyon's right. We get conditioned to think in terms of 'talent' yet the most talented roster rarely wins. The best team though has a chance.

houston got straight wings and slashers

All jokes aside, K-Mart should be a GM somewhere. He can be an athletic director as well. This brother drops gems every single episode.

Wow bro Eduardo Najara if I’m spelling it right from my memory that’s crazy I forgot so many players that were in the league.

All the future Small Forwards are in Atlanta

Gil rocking the Louisville Peyton Siva jersey. I remember back when a lot of people swore that Siva was going to be a D.Rose. Siva was lit in college.

[Bigp]

Both Phoenix and Houston are cooking right now tho! Lol

[vbeard]

Glad to hear Kmart say it about my Nuggets

[rhondacommander]

This is what annoys me with professional sports. Ownership and management don’t get enough scrutiny. Some of us put too much emphasis on the players when they weren’t put into a winning situation.

Everyone wants Houston Rockets assets. They traded players like cp3 Russ westbrook and Harden to get to this position. Don't hate the player hate the game

[exloaded]

The suns this year, with all three, are blowing teams out, not sure what hes on. Durant been hurt and is back, Book starting slow, and Beal being Beal.

[JansMarinara]

Its moreso that if you have three dynamic scorers they need to be healthy to win. They each play their own position, (pg, sg, sf, ) and went 8-1 when kd and beal were playing. KD was like second or third in mvp before he got hurt. You can also question this style of basketball more when it comes to fhe playoffs because theres just less room for error especially with injuries.

Spurs prime example Parker, Duncan, Leonard, manu fit perfectly 🔥

[myversion]

You have to trade KD for AD or Booker for AD. That's a win for the Lakers and the Suns

[smp_founder]

They just went 8–1 before KD supposedly got hurt. Has nothing to do with the scorers.

[grip]

We gotta lot of wings players still n Atlanta 🤦🏾‍♂️😂

[isaiahisaiah]

Ive been saying this s*** "FOREVER"!!!!💯 GSW had players ALL playing in their actual positions💯 they werent just throwing a bunch of NAMES out there just to have a good group of talent "On Paper" smh that doesnt work 😒 🤦🏿

[dubc]

The suns need someone that can post up and score down low, Jimmy for Beal.

[canadadry]

Sengun just doesn't exist in gils world.

[ladarrienwilliams]

The problem is nowadays “everyone is good” if Durant still hungry you gotta play through him and Beal and Bradley gotta step up defensively more than they have in the past
