Suns lose focus against depleted Nets in poor home loss

We've all had those days at the office when we're mentally checked out the day before going on vacation or celebrating a holiday, and that sure looked like what we saw from the Phoenix Suns on Wednesday in a 127-117 loss to the Brooklyn Nets. The Nets were undoubtedly playing harder and with more physicality, on top of the clear edge in mental connectivity. In terms of the opposition, that is a complete 180 from the effort they faced the night prior versus the Los Angeles Lakers, and the inability to adjust was clear. “You have to come in with the same mindset every game,” Suns guard Devin Booker said.
