It's a shame Ayton isn't praised more. It's "CP3 is so close!" or "PG chokes" or "Clippers wouldn't be down like this if they had Kawhi!" DeAndre Ayton has been the Suns' best and most consistent player this postseason.
it would be over by now if the bev didnt have preferential refs treatment...i mean booker is the one who gets ejected with 6 fouls...lololol what a joke...
Yeah true. Also, the amount of complaining by the Clippers team has been crazy. Could use all that energy towards their star player instead who keeps missing crucial free throws.
Was Harden injured? He was playing when I watched. If he was really injured he shouldn't have played at all. Then that would be a valid excuse.
No kidding, Beverley has been mugging Booker for 4 games now. He even (“accidentally”) broke his nose. It’s not like Beverley doesn’t have a known history of this sort of thing. Then he flops and flails on the other end if any Suns player even breathes on him. He’s getting away with murder out there. Then the Suns seem to always get penalized for retaliation. Even JVG was calling this out last night. To be fair CP3 does plenty of flopping, as well. But I don’t understand how Booker is constantly in foul trouble, when he is the one that’s been consistently beaten and bloodied in this series. I’ve actually been pretty impressed with Booker’s toughness and poise playing through it all.
whats amazing suns are doing all this without even shooting a lot of 3s.. especially cp3... and all that vs the best 3pt shooting team in NBA
SKIIIEEEEEEEEEEP "I have been told by a very good source that the first issue became, Kawhi was unhappy with the Clippers' medical staff because he felt that they, early on, misdiagnosed and underplayed the extent of this knee injury... I was also told, as I told you [Shannon] from Day 1 when this happened, he's gone. He's going to need some type of surgery. I'm not sure what the extent of it is, but he's going to need surgery. So he's out for the rest of the playoffs, but they don't say he's out because I think they're not talking." “I have been told by a very good source that the first issue became Kawhi was unhappy with the Clippers medical staff because he felt they early on misdiagnosed and underplayed the extent of this knee injury. What does that smack of? San Antonio all over again,” Bayless said.“Kawhi Leonard is his own man, we know this. Once he gets a little sideways with medical staff, he’s going to pull away. He’s going to go to this doctor and that physical therapist, away from the team. “Why is it that the team keeps saying ‘We’re not sure’ from game-to-game? They won’t rule him out. I think they’re just not communicating at all with him so they’re not sure what’s going on with him.”
Booker needs to be back to his Game 1 form for them to have a chance. And don't assume that the Bucks will be in the finals. Trae has something to say about that.
In an alternate universe where the Rockets stayed with CP3 and Harden, do you think the Rockets would be favorites to win it all this season? Or would they already be eliminated from the playoffs? I guess this is assuming Harden would be healthy still in this alternative universe. Would mean Bucks don't have Tucker, and Irving and Durant would have had to play all of this past regular season without extended rest.
Nah only the Rockets are healthy in this scenario. You think they'd beat a Tucker-less Bucks in the Finals? Or Hawks?
i really dislike everything about the clippers from nearly the entire roster to the owner to the coach to LA and its dumbass fans too. that's why it pains me to say that they're getting jobbed and should be up 3-1 in this series right now, starting w/ the obvious illegal moving screen by booker at the end of game 2
