    Chris Paul Out a Week, Plus the Phoenix Suns Trade for Kevin Durant Trade Revisited
    May 3 2023

    Chris Paul will reportedly miss at least a week with a left groin strain, while Kevin Durant has not lifted the Phoenix Suns offense as expected.


    Brendon Kleen discusses who should start in place of Chris Paul, what Devin Booker will have to do while he's out, and why the Kevin Durant trade is not what caused the problems facing the Suns' roster.

  • Maybe The Phoenix Suns Are Just An Offensive Juggernaut And Everyone Else Is SCARED To ADMIT IT!

    Maybe The Phoenix Suns Are Just An Offensive Juggernaut And Everyone Else Is SCARED To ADMIT IT!
    Nov 20 2025
    Benjamin Garcia breaks down a stunning statistical trend showing the Suns have led by at least 18 points in nine of their last ten games, including blowouts against the Clippers, Pelicans, and Pacers. Despite recording 19 steals against Portland—the most by any NBA team in a single game this season—the Suns currently rank 8th in offensive rating but only 11th defensively. Garcia analyzes how players like Jordan Goodwin and Colin Gillespie have transformed into offensive weapons, questions what happens when Jalen Green fully integrates into the system, and examines whether the upcoming 12-game stretch against teams like the Timberwolves and Lakers should raise championship expectations. Plus, a deep look at Oso Ighodaro's recent emergence and improved confidence.

  • The Phoenix Suns AVENGE Sunday's Collapse And SLOWLY SUFFOCATE The Trail Blazers On National TV!

    The Phoenix Suns AVENGE Sunday's Collapse And SLOWLY SUFFOCATE The Trail Blazers On National TV!
    Nov 19 2025
    The Phoenix Suns are dominating opponents in ways nobody predicted, building 18+ point leads in 9 of their last 10 games while sitting at 9-6 and fourth in the Western Conference. After dismantling the Portland Trail Blazers, the team's offensive efficiency ranks 9th in the NBA despite missing key contributors like Grayson Allen and Jalen Green. Benjamin Garcia breaks down why the Suns' early-season wins against lower-tier teams matter for playoff positioning, how they immediately learned from blowing a 22-point lead to Atlanta, and what their balanced scoring attack reveals about this "band of misfits." He analyzes Mark Williams' defensive transformation, Devin Booker's efficient leadership, and the team's suffocating defense anchored by Ryan Dunn and Dylan Brooks. Garcia also raises concerns about rookie Khaman Maluach being the only DNP-Coach's Decision in a blowout while praising Rasheer Fleming's promising debut performance. Tune in to discover why these Suns might be more dangerous than anyone expected and what their hot start means for their playoff aspirations. 0:00 Intro0:31 Suns Dominate Portland in Nationally Televised Win2:02 Nine Straight Games with 18+ Point Leads4:06 Defensive Rating Climbing to Top 146:10 Offensive Rating Jumps to 9th in NBA8:11 Why Every Win Matters for Playoff Positioning11:16 Stacking Wins Against Western Conference Competition14:23 Learning from the Atlanta Hawks Collapse17:27 Devin Booker Sits Early, Lead Never Threatened20:02 Winning Without Grayson Allen and Jalen Green23:05 Rasheer Fleming Gets His Opportunity26:09 Concerning DNP for Khaman Maluach28:44 Fleming's Rebounding Impact in Limited Minutes 📲 Follow Locked On Suns on TikTokLocked On Suns https://www.tiktok.com/@lockedonphxsuns?is_from_webapp=1&sender_device=pc 📲 Follow Locked On Suns on InstagramLocked On Suns https://www.instagram.com/lockedonphxsuns/ Follow & Subscribe on all Podcast platforms…🎧 https://link.chtbl.com/LOSuns?sid=YouTube Locked On NBA League-Wide: Every Team, Fantasy, Draft, WNBA & More🎧 https://linktr.ee/LockedOnNBA 📢 Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

    The Phoenix Suns COLLAPSE Against The Atlanta Hawks + Jamaree Bouyea Signs On A Two-Way Deal!
    Nov 18 2025
    Benjamin Garcia and John Voita break down the brutal loss, examining Dylan Brooks' back-to-back 30-point performances and his questionable late-game shot selection. They analyze whether the Suns' early-season shooting success is sustainable or if they need to lean harder on defense, discuss Devin Booker's ongoing struggles against lengthy defenders like Dyson Daniels and Jalen Johnson, and evaluate what this means for playoff aspirations. The hosts also cover breaking roster news with the Jamaree Bouyea signing, address rumors about bringing back Cam Payne, and preview a brutal upcoming schedule featuring Minnesota, Oklahoma City, Denver, and the Lakers.

  • Devin Booker Puts The Suns ON HIS BACK In The Second Half Securing A NOSTALGIC WIN Over Pacers!

    Devin Booker Puts The Suns ON HIS BACK In The Second Half Securing A NOSTALGIC WIN Over Pacers!
    Nov 14 2025
    Without key rotation players, Booker dropped 38 points with just one turnover, taking over in the third quarter with the kind of Finals-level performance that reminded everyone of 2021. Host Benjamin Garcia breaks down Dylan Brooks' 32-point explosion and psychological warfare against T.J. McConnell and Pascal Siakam, Oso Ighodaro's breakout game with a ridiculous +52 plus/minus, and why Grayson Allen's injury shouldn't derail this deeper, more resilient Suns squad. Garcia also revisits his preseason predictions that are proving prophetic—from the team's top-10 defense to Booker's MVP candidacy—and explains why this team's infectious attitude and ability to protect leads separates them from previous Phoenix rosters that collapsed without Kevin Durant. Tune in to hear why the Suns' dominant stretch reveals a fundamental shift in team mentality and depth. 0:00 Intro1:34 Valley Court jerseys bring nostalgic feelings4:08 Vindication on Suns predictions this season6:42 Holding Devin Booker to supermax standards8:16 Booker's third quarter takeover moment arrives11:18 Best game of the season analysis16:26 Next man up mentality working perfectly19:29 Suns depth proving doubters wrong23:04 Dominant team statistics and box score25:37 Dillon Brooks' delusional confidence pays off28:41 Sweet baby Oso's plus-52 performance31:15 Confidence is key for Oso's success 📲 Follow Locked On Suns on TikTokLocked On Suns https://www.tiktok.com/@lockedonphxsuns?is_from_webapp=1&sender_device=pc 📲 Follow Locked On Suns on InstagramLocked On Suns https://www.instagram.com/lockedonphxsuns/ 📲 Follow Locked On Suns on XLocked On Suns https://x.com/LockedOnPHXSunsBen Garcia https://x.com/BenGarciaShow Follow & Subscribe on all Podcast platforms…🎧 https://link.chtbl.com/LOSuns?sid=YouTube Locked On NBA League-Wide: Every Team, Fantasy, Draft, WNBA & More🎧 https://linktr.ee/LockedOnNBA 📢 Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

    The Phoenix Suns BEAT The Dallas Mavericks And Move Into A BRAND NEW TIER In The NBA Hierarchy!
    Nov 13 2025
    Benjamin Garcia breaks down how the Suns have graduated from being lumped with tanking teams like the Wizards and Hornets to becoming a solidly "good" NBA team. He analyzes Grayson Allen's stunning transformation into a near-All-Star performer averaging 18 points on 45-44 shooting splits, questioning whether his contract has become one of the league's best bargains. Garcia also examines Devin Booker's evolving playmaking role and why his late-game execution needs improvement despite his impressive overall numbers. The discussion covers the team's newfound defensive identity, their ability to win ugly games, and the looming roster dilemma when Jalen Green returns from injury. Tune in to understand why these wins matter more than the standings suggest and what they reveal about the Suns' identity moving forward. 0:00 Intro1:32 Why This Win Matters for Suns Culture4:35 Suns Graduate from Bottom Third of NBA7:38 Devin Booker's Dynamic Playmaking Evolution10:42 Good Teams Take What Bad Teams Give13:17 Grayson Allen's Career Year Transformation18:24 Should Grayson Allen Start Over Jalen Green22:31 Devin Booker's Late Game Decision Making27:09 Never Concerned About Losing This Game 📲 Follow Locked On Suns on TikTokLocked On Suns https://www.tiktok.com/@lockedonphxsuns?is_from_webapp=1&sender_device=pc 📲 Follow Locked On Suns on InstagramLocked On Suns https://www.instagram.com/lockedonphxsuns/ 📲 Follow Locked On Suns on XLocked On Suns https://x.com/LockedOnPHXSunsBen Garcia https://x.com/BenGarciaShow Follow & Subscribe on all Podcast platforms…🎧 https://link.chtbl.com/LOSuns?sid=YouTube Locked On NBA League-Wide: Every Team, Fantasy, Draft, WNBA & More🎧 https://linktr.ee/LockedOnNBA 📢 Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

  • Are The Phoenix Suns The 1-4 Team That Started The Season OR The 5-1 Team Over Their Last Six Games?

    Are The Phoenix Suns The 1-4 Team That Started The Season OR The 5-1 Team Over Their Last Six Games?
    Nov 12 2025
    Hosts Benjamin Garcia and John Voita break down the Suns' dramatic turnaround, examining the team chemistry under Jordan Ott that's creating a fluidity not seen in four years. They analyze Jalen Green's hamstring injury and why Suns fans need to stop the "woe is me" mentality, discuss Mark Williams' defensive anchor role, and debate Devin Booker's irreplaceable offensive excellence. The conversation takes a controversial turn when they explore whether red-hot Grayson Allen and Royce O'Neale should be traded to restock draft capital while their value peaks. With Allen leading the league in threes made, could the Suns flip role players into multiple first-round picks? Tune in for an honest assessment of whether this winning streak is sustainable and what moves could position Phoenix for a championship run. 0:00 Intro3:13 Suns' hot streak: sustainable or fluke?7:09 Upcoming schedule and team improvement analysis11:30 Jalen Green injury and fan reactions18:15 Four to six week injury timeline25:32 Trading Grayson and Royce for picks?31:25 Oso Ighodaro jokes and team needs34:50 Take styles: Westbrook vs Pippen approach 📲 Follow Locked On Suns on TikTokLocked On Suns https://www.tiktok.com/@lockedonphxsuns?is_from_webapp=1&sender_device=pc 📲 Follow Locked On Suns on InstagramLocked On Suns https://www.instagram.com/lockedonphxsuns/ 📲 Follow Locked On Suns on XLocked On Suns https://x.com/LockedOnPHXSunsBen Garcia https://x.com/BenGarciaShow Follow & Subscribe on all Podcast platforms…🎧 https://link.chtbl.com/LOSuns?sid=YouTube Locked On NBA League-Wide: Every Team, Fantasy, Draft, WNBA & More🎧 https://linktr.ee/LockedOnNBA 📢 Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!
