    To be fair, he had Doc Rivers as coach for a number of years. :D

    Absolutely stunned. Just mindblown.

    Bridges, Crowder and Booker shot 8-34 (23%) and 1-13 (7.6%) from 3 point range with 6 turnovers. YIKES.

    Paul shot 50% on 8 shots and 33% on 3 threes with 4 assists and 0 turnovers. Maybe chill with the hot take TMZ stuff.

    This game was the legend of Luka.

    This series was 2-0 Suns and felt like it was another "team > superstar + scrubs" like the Warriors-Nuggets series. I thought it was going to be a Suns sweep, at that point.

    Boy, was I wrong.

    Oh god I just realised that I'm going to have to decide whether I want Golden State or Dallas going to the Finals.

    Like it's cool and good that Chris Paul is flopping his way to Cancun but man, that's a choice between eating a pile of dogshit or getting kicked in the balls right there

    I was one of the two posters who voted "Mavs in 7."

    lol "I wish harden has as much heart as luka to put the warriors in their place".

    I always wonder y folks tend to forget how dominant those GSW team were. If simple heart was all it took to beat them, CP3 surely would have done it in any of those years with his own team b4 teaming up with harden.

    Well now we will see how Luka fare against the Warriors.

    Same folks praising how much clutch Lillard is over harden, watched him get his ass kicked in 4-0 vs GSW.

    I honestly don't think Luka can take on the Warriors, but who knows stranger thing can happen.

    Root for Boston. I hate both GS and Dallas....the only good thing about WCF is that we can laugh at the other team losing.

    Teams leading 2-0 have lost a series just 7% of the time in NBA history.

    409-32 when up 2-0.

    5 of those 32 losses were Chris Paul teams.

    Not saying it's his fault, but that's just kinda incredible/crazy.

    This year's championship must have an asterisk. All the injuries and CP3 suddenly abandoning his vegan diet.

    Warriors have the easiest path to a Finals. No Murray, no MPJ, no Morant. And now, they don't have to face the best regular season team.
