Double tech woulda been good agree

well it was a double tech. the issue is that draymond decided to treat sabonis' sternum like a trampoline so his half of the T equation got upgraded to an ejection. but it's not like sabonis went unpunished

slamball is back baby

lol looks terrible honestly please wear ear protection if you go to that place

I don’t think Bob Myers and the Warriors staff were too happy with me. Lol. #LightTheBeam pic.twitter.com/T2g4gf5wZk

Kings team doctor should really extend the bit/drama and show up to the press conference, solemnly say “there’s bad news…we found something on the x-rays” and then project the He Got That Dog In Him x-ray meme onto the screen https://t.co/ivIlUSUlpm

it's honestly boring at this point, i don't know how he still gets off on this stuff

just dray bein dray

him & sabonis have been going at each other all series + one of the craziest road environments in the league. it's dray's time to shine! it was practically a WWE event

CP vs Scott Foster tonight. CP 0-14 against him in his last 14 playoff games.

hell yes

even tho he has a few years on me i'd choose to die before chris paul if it meant that i got to watch him show up to the gates of heaven only to find out that scott foster is working the door

lmao

Chris Paul’s last 13 playoff games vs Scott Foster 😳

me & scott foster once the playoffs start

hawks defense is shameful

Automatic thread bump. This poll is closing tomorrow.

how on earth did mazzulla leave all his starters in up 20 with 2 minutes to play

Thibs needs to be jailed for his crime of playing his starters down 20+ w 2 min left. Randle almost had a really bad injury on a fast break

the fostering begins

looked up and saw the basketball being whipped across the court and I was like oh no Russ what'd you do

feel like we as a society don’t talk enough about how plumlee just decided to shoot everything left handed this year and he’s up like 1.75x both from the midrange and at the line. completely zany!

kawhi looking really nasty

Clips would be up by 12 or so if Russ would stop shooting.

Russ making hustle plays still tho

it is wild, easier to learn it new than undo bad habits i guess, brain was too grooved

there's a ton of series left but holy fuck if the Suns lose this. imagine telling yourself before the trade deadline that KD would go to the Suns and they'd lose in the first round to a Clippers team without Paul George but with Westbrook. would be some real wormhole shit

a lot of basketball people failed to think about if the suns were good or not

Agreed. The Clippers blew it big-time beating the Suns today. Kings were a much better matchup and the 2/3 side of the bracket was a better path to the West finals. But now they'll be a quick out for Phoenix. https://t.co/mB6le4Opm7

the suns have 4 theoretical good players and 2.5 actual good ones, this has been obvious since they made the trade

the basketball punditry looks at teams like milwaukee and boston that go legit 7 or 8 deep and play elite defense and then looks at the suns trading all their depth for kevin durant and says yeah that's equivalent

wearing those kd goggles

lol that guy bought the team and made a franchise altering trade the next day

he was like when you can get kd you get kd

Cad otm.

This version of cp is reminding me of old kidd, just backing defenders down from half court cos he can’t get by anyone anymore. Then just kinda… floating around out there

seems like a main lesson of many deep runs recently has been that depth is something you can't fake, particularly with all the injuries, and yet

Ayton is not good right now. The mid range is fine but he has no dawg in him. I remember him having a good run in the 21 playoffs but I guess that was just to get a contract?

to be fair the things that are fucking the suns are chris paul becoming ineffective and ayton regressing but these were also things that were likely to happen

but i think depth is hugely underrated in the mainstream discourse, one-way players (and no-way players) get hunted and killed in the playoffs these days

feel like we need an update on the ayton video game situation is he still not sleeping

ayton can defend another center in the post but that's about it

nice shot booker

here comes the Suns

doodle doo doo

dray out game 3
