Have been banned from the other thread by an apparently sensitive snowflake (ironically after dozens of pages of political discussion from others) so I'll stick my thoughts on the NBA Playoffs here from now on. We needed a new thread anyway. [Reply]
CP3 was pretty awful as well. Sure, he had 12 assists but he never looked to be controlling the game and continually dribbled out the clock and took a terrible shot as the clock expired. Booker has been awful from the field last two games. Certainly appears Beverly is in his head a bit.
Clippers have no answer for the screen roll game yet Phoenix has went away from it for long stretches of the last 2 games. Suns got out hustled start to finish by a desperate team tonight. They also played at a much slower pace which was a head scratcher.

Suns should still win the series though.
I knew this game was over at 5-2. You could just tell. [Reply]

I think it used to be a technical foul for each player on the floor who had not been checked in by the official scorer.
Seems like they should have some kind of sanction for trying to make illegal substitutions. [Reply]

Those two HAVE to play better. Biggest issue, IMO, is that Book hasn't really been a knock-down shooter, yet, in his career. [Reply]
Once again, I don’t even talk like this…plus I don’t have a relationship with Jackie for us to have in depth conversations about my intentions as a basketball player. I get she plays an opinion based sport but she framed this like we are friends. We are not.. https://t.co/0D2GszSwhA
