    Props to the Suns. I felt awful for them that they had an amazing regular season and got screwed having to face the Lakers. Luckily for them, Davis got hurt and Lebron stopped paying the refs.

    I think Denver gets out of the West now.

    Same thing he did in Rockets uniform. There would never be 27 consecutive 3 misses with CP on the floor

    Well, if they win Game 7, they are in it again, down only one game.

    Does the Epcot ring have an asterisk next to it now? After Miami and the Lakers finished 7th and 6th and won a combined 2 playoff games!?

    I really thought that BenMac would lead them into the promise land. But losing AD was too much to overcome even for the Rockets legend.

    The issue was having 2 super large contracts as once. That is not currently an issue in Phoenix because of the youth around Paul
