Stephen A. Smith Declares One NBA Playoff Series Is Already Over

ESPN analyst Stephen A. Smith gave his insight on the NBA Playoffs after a full slate of Tuesday night games. As the Minnesota Timberwolves lead the Phoenix Suns 2-0 in the first round, Smith believes the series is officially over.

He's counting out the Suns, despite them having star power with proven ability. The Big 3 of Kevin Durant, Bradley Beal, and Devin Booker looked great on paper before the season, but it hasn't been able produce much to the winning column.

The Timberwolves are led by Anthony Edwards and Karl Anthony-Towns. Two young stars that are ready to take over as one of the leagues best duos.

Phoenix will be playing Games 3 and 4 at home, so the series shouldn't be closed just yet. While the Timberwolves have shown consistency and top-level depth, experience always comes into play in a seven game series. It seems Smith is early to the second round party.
