    Paul Pierce's Brutally Harsh Message for Kevin Durant, Suns Amid NBA Playoff Loss

    Paul Pierce has a brutally harsh message for Kevin Durant and the Suns following their NBA Playoff loss Friday night.

    Phoenix finds itself in a nightmare position after Kevin Durant and Co. succumbed to Anthony Edwards and the Minnesota Timberwolves to kick off the weekend. The Western Conference franchise is now in a 0-3 series hole ahead of Sunday's Game 4.

    It's a scenario that hardly anyone anticipated for the Suns this season.

    Despite boasting a roster led by Durant, Devin Booker, and Bradley Beal, and being one of the preseason favorites to claim the NBA title, they've struggled to resemble a championship-caliber team throughout the year.

    Barring a miraculous series comeback, the Suns will soon have plenty of free time on their hands. Who knows? Maybe Durant, Booker and the rest of the squad already have their vacation plans set.

    Paul Pierce, the longtime Boston Celtics star, sent Durant and the Suns a brutally harsh message amid their Game 3 loss to the Timberwolves.

    "All the OGs going to Cancun early damn," Pierce said .

    Cancun on three!

    What a disappointing season it's been for the Suns. It begs the question: What will this offseason look like for Phoenix? Will Kevin Durant want out? Is Devin Booker fed up? Will they run it back?

    It's going to be a long offseason for the Suns. But it's not over until it's over. The Suns will try and stay alive in Game 4 on Sunday.
