Play hard and may the best team win. We're not really overwhelming ourselves with that. Pat on their backs for playing hard, but this is a series and this is the playoffs.The Suns regained homecourt advantage with Friday's 114-111 Game 3 win.
Williams admitted the Suns miss their three-time All-Star, who scored 31 points in the first half in that Game 2 loss, but Ayton isn't in a rush to see Booker return. The eighth-seeded Pelicans are the only team that entered the playoffs with a losing record, but they've more than held their own in making it essentially a best-of-3 series.
