From skepticism on playoff chances to the pivotal roles of Devin Booker, Dylan Brooks, and Jalen Green, Garcia offers a candid look at what Phoenix must do to win a series. He weighs the true impact of Booker’s efficiency, Green’s consistency, and Jordan Ott’s coaching under postseason pressure. Plus: Which play-in matchup gives the Suns their best shot—San Antonio Spurs or Oklahoma City Thunder? Can this resilient roster finally silence the doubters? Will the injury bug end their season, or is an underdog run still possible?
