Episode Details

The Los Angeles Lakers getting swept by the Oklahoma City Thunder may have completely changed the way fans look at the Phoenix Suns and Devin Booker.

After weeks of criticism surrounding the Suns’ playoff collapse, the Lakers suffering the same fate against Oklahoma City puts things into a  different perspective. Were the Suns really as far away as people thought? Or did the Thunder simply prove they’re on another level right now?

In this episode of Southwest Bias, we break down:

- Why the Lakers sweep changes the narrative around Phoenix

- What it says about Devin Booker and the Suns roster

- How dominant the Thunder really are

- Why the Suns may not be as far behind contenders as fans believe

- The biggest overreactions from the NBA playoffs

If you’re a Suns fan, Lakers fan, or just locked into the NBA playoffs, this is a conversation you don’t want to miss.
