    Suns turned it around so quick from end of last year to now.

    Rockets need KPj and Wood to really take huge steps and our pick to turn into a star, get a few vets and were back in the playoff picture

    Booker doesn't seem like the type to act up though. I think he was provoked or something.

    They lost the moment AD went out 5 minutes into the first quarter.

    Lebron in the West without his all-star crutches:

    No playoffs in 2019
    Blown out in a losing series in 2021

    But of course everyone's going to give him the pass.

    It's not an act though. Booker loves to fight. Booker is a supreme ******* and I dont think a lot of NBA fans know that about his character.

    Fake Lebron playing for the Fakers getting booted in the first round in front of their fake fans.

    I believe it. Any NBA player complaining about getting double teamed in a pick up game is a little b****. That being said kudos for knocking out the LeBrons

    Yep, I’ve seen him take cheap shots on players all the time too.

    Say what you will about Harden, but unlike LeQuit he didn't shrink against Clutch God mode CP3 even if he was stinking it up that game.

    Don't forget cheating last year to get House thrown out because he was struggling against him.

    He does have a temper. I was worried it would cost the Suns a game, but it didn't show up until the end of this one.

    That's certainly possible... he did sound pretty somber at the interview. w/e not super familiar with Booker's character.

    Suns vs Nuggets. No clue who will win but leaning Nuggets. CP3 definitely isn't going to be 100%.

    That was one of those go-through-the-motions-we-not-playing pick up games all NBA players run through. There is always that one guy who wants to play too hard trying to get a contract at the Y, lol
