Bill Simmons and Jusuf Nurkic
As the NBA regular season concluded, Jusuf Nurkic wasted no time taking a jab at sportswriter Bill Simmons due to the Phoenix Suns’ dominant win over the Minnesota Timberwolves. Simmons had a different take on the game, especially after the scuffle between Bradley Beal and Anthony Edwards, prompting a response from Nurkic.
After Bradley Beal and Anthony Edwards’ altercation, insider Bill Simmons tweeted that they would be dueling for the 20-point lead. However, Beal had a big game that night, scoring 36 points, and proving Simmons wrong.
Oh, no, the Suns went up big early and talked s**t to Ant… Story developing.

After the players’ altercation, it was a close call, but Wolves were unable to win. The Suns are currently leading the tournament and are on their way to playoffs Game 1, where they will take on the Wolves once more.

Beal was the star of the show for the Suns in an incredible victory over the Wolves, even though the main highlight of the story showed that he had a falling out with Edwards. Putting that aside, Beal promised they would target the title if they advanced past the playoffs.
Playoff Zone man. It's time. It's time. It's time to start playing defense. It's time to execute and take care of the ball's offense. It's time, man. We want to win the ring. it's time. it's time. I am hyped. I am hyped as hell. I am ready to go.speaking in the post-game interview, Bradley Beal said
Given their current strong performance and position ahead of the playoffs, it will be difficult for any team to exclude them from consideration. Their next opponent in the opening game will be the Wolves, whom they recently defeated. Led by Devin Booker, Bradley Beal, and Kevin Durant, their offense is exceptional.
