It’s a big deal out here even. I’m getting stopped multiple times whenever I wear Suns gear. They’re a really fun team to watch right now and they play as a team more so than anyone left in the tournament, IMHO.

The Suns play excellent team basketball. They’re also going to be the least talented of the four remaining Conference finalists. They’re like the Raptors when they won the title only without Kawhi.

Lol yeah. I was happy when Orlando traded him and got back a first and a couple young players. Even if those players never become worth a thing. He just never developed the way they had hoped. He brings absolutely nothing on offense and what he brings on defense and on the boards doesn't make up for that enough to be a starter that gets big minutes. Just my opinion of course. He was good at dunk contests though. Got robbed twice.

Once the replay showed contact with the face, that is automatically a flagrant 2. LeBron, Durant or Curry would never try to wind up to get power behind an attempt to make a steal. I could imagine LeBron making a physical play in a chippy game, but it would be something that looks like playing basketball. This white euro MVPs get treated so much worse than american black MVPs is a bunch of crybaby bullshit. |

That's a nice win for ATL. Thought it was over real early.

Utah appears to be getting exposed as a soft playoff team again. Theyre gonna need Conley to play in game 5.

If Philly loses this series, they are definitely going to look back on that one. Gotta think the knee is really bothering Embiid. He looked like he was lumbering out there and a tad slower. The knee seems to always be on his mind. Dispatching the Hawks early to get Embiid a couple more days rest would have been the blueprint to winning the title. I just don't think they can do it, even though I think they are gonna beat the Hawks in 6.
If the Nets win and show everyone you don't need to play any defense in the NBA to win anymore, I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to take it. |

I really like this Atlanta roster. I just wish players like Bogy and Collins were a tad more consistent in their shooting.
Of course, having at least ONE of your small forwards healthy/available would go a long way as well (Hunter and Reddish are out). |

I think Cam Reddish not available is helpful actually. He's one of the worst players in the league that is forced minutes, albeit young and talented. Hunter is useful and a pretty good defender, though.

Not sure I get what doc was doing. The bench was rolling before they got pulled. Howard was actually giving atl fits in the 4q. At the very least when embiid looked off he should have given him a mini break. |
