Las Vegas - Step over to London and follow me to the bank of ECK where Italy will knock Austria out of Euro 2020. The Italians have won 11 in a row, and have not lost a game in the last THIRTY outings. One of main reasons is the phenomenal young goalie, Gianluigi Donnarumma. Only 22 years old, Gigio has NOT allowed a goal yet in Euro 2020 and has recorded EIGHT straight bagels for the national team. AZZURRI for the money BAABBEEE!!!

Back to Los Angeles for some hoops and thinking that the Suns are gonna shine. Credit Ty Lue with some sweet adjustments for the win in game three, but there were some issues on the Phoenix side. We're not gonna blame it on the Goose. We're not gonna blame it on the Juice. Yea, that's Lizzo. But we WILL blame it on the MASK! Devin Booker's nose was smushed/broken by the ultimate NBA pest, Patrick Beverley, and he was obviously WAY off. Book shot 5 of 21 overall and just 1 of 7 from downtown. Chris Paul was just coming off the COVID-19 quarantine and was also WAY off, shooting just 5 of 19 and 2 of 7 from deep. There is NO way that Booker and Paul will shoot the rock at 24% and 26% again. Book dropped 40 points (without the broken nose) and 20 points (with the broken nose) in the first two games against the Clippers, and we're expecting close to or more than 30 tonight. Also look for CP3 to shake off the rust and drop 20 and change. With a nod to the great musical "Hair," let the SUNSshine IN!!!
