    What a performance Booker put on to knock King James and his Lakers out of the playoffs. Booker was on fire. Percentages don't get much better than that. James just sizzled in comparison.

    I loved it!

    Booker FG (15-22) 68%
    James FG (11-26) 42%

    Booker 3 PT (8-10) 80%
    James 3 PT ( 3-10) 30%

    Booker FT (9-9) 100%
    James FT (4-6) 67%

    Booker +- 10
    James +- -3

    Booker 47 PTS
    James 29 PTS

    Bye Bye Lakers! Champs to Chumps.

    Bet you any money he won't come close to the shot percentages Booker had last night in any playoff game. I doubt he ever did.

    Lebron's legacy is ruined.

    With both LA team likely out of the picture, there’s def a real good chance we see CP in his first Finals ever.

    I love LeBron and wanted to see him win, but I also like this Suns team, so I'm quite torn. I now hope the Suns come out of the West.

    Either way, absolutely silly to hate on LeBron for this loss. There is probably not a player in history who could have led these Lakers past these Suns two more times after Davis went down.

    Two LA teams out will be awesome. As far as CP playing all the way through the finals....well, I won't hold my breath on him being physically able to make it through that many more games without sitting on the bench again with another injury. I hope he can do it for his sake though. I don't wish injury on anyone.

    1st time LeBron has been knocked out in the first round his entire career.

    Thats pretty amazing when you take into account some of the scrub teams he was on in his young days.
