PG, Reggie & Morris showed up.
For some reason, there points in the paint is high even without Zubac.
Probably bcoz every matchup is forced to spread out since all of them r shooters which leaves the paint wide open.

PG with a playoff career high. How can Ayton only have 10 and game worst -22 with Zubac out of the series.

In other news, Trae is questionable for tomorrow.

Sucks that this playoffs has come down to what team is the healthiest.

My stance hasn't changed tho...the Clippers ARE a joke, they ALWAYS will be a joke.

Just because the Mavs and now the Jazz choked....that doesn't change anything.

And YES, they both absolutely choked, BOTH should've won those series.

That's on them.

The Jazz in particular not only choked but for fucks sake they had the most golden of chances! Kawhi got injured and these fuckers couldn't even protect a 25 point lead?!

I'll bet any amount of money that the Suns beat the Clippers....pretty easily actually.

Should be a sweep....5 games MAX!


Are we talking about USD? Good game going on, Suns up 1 with 6 mins to go in the 4th, let's do $100?

Wise decision to not actually bet any amount of money Alex 😁

I'm gonna be SUPER honest right now...

The Clippers deserve a LOT of credit for what they're doing.

As an organization I still have not changed my mind....I believe they are still the same TERRIBLE organization that has had terrible owners and a terrible front office.

However, ever since Kawhi went down, they have stepped up BIG.

The Suns SHOULD have won today....they SHOULD have probably swept a team that is missing it's biggest star.

I mean for god sakes, the Jazz should've beaten them, and yet they somehow made it this far!

I still believe the Suns win this series tho.

Suns vs Bucks looks like the Finals....on paper it looks like a really bad series.

Phoenix and Milwaukee are NOT big market teams or cities and both those teams have a record of coming up short.

But I think it's gonna be a good finals.

I'm almost scared to say this because I'll be a big man and admit I've been sooooo horribly wrong throughout this entire playoffs, but here is my prediction:

Suns beat Bucks 4-2

In the Clippers defense, they did a really good job with ball denial and team rebounding. But Ayton needs to grab the ball with two hands instead of constantly trying to tap it in. I suspect the coaching staff will point those plays out to him.

It's been years since they changed their ownership from Sterling to Ballmer lol. Ballmer looks like he's one of the best owners in the league. Can't take you seriously with that take especially with them having Jerry West in their FO.

You should put money on the Bucks then. Easy money guaraaanteed.

Hawks played with way more intensity. Their defense stepped up and Bogdan hit quite a few 3s during key stretches. Bucks played like game 1 again which didnt help... and they miss so many open 3s it's painful

side note, Capela just hit a fadeaway jumper from behind the backboard. Been that kinda night lol

Giannis' knee hyperextension looked as bad as Embiids earlier in the season. Embiid missed 3 weeks when he hyperextended his knee and that was the best possible outcome with how bad it looked. I'd be surprised if Giannis play in g5 and wouldn't be surprised if he's out of this series. Hawks really gonna make the Finals.

Really hoping for the best for Giannis. If his injury does end up being like an acl tear or any other major structural damage then it could be a major setback for his career considering that he’s so reliant on his pure athleticism.

There is no structural damage to Giannis Antetokounmpo's left knee after his awkward landing last night in Atlanta; ligaments are sound, sources tell @ZachLowe_NBA and me. Timetable to return is unclear. https://twitter.com/wojespn/status/1410330506487492612

very good news for the Bucks and Giannis fans i thought he might have torn his ACL there yesterday too

but the doctor on the comments section said he will not play in weeks though so lol

Had to lock in and shut some things down for a little bit. Expected to come back and see at least one Conference winner already but what the heck lol. Can't say I'm surprised tho. It's been that kind of a playoff.

Clippers keeping things close right now. Only looking at the scoreboard tho.

Yup, really no point in trying to predict anything lol.

Really ugly way to go out, but still proud of the Clippers. And of course they go out at the hands of CP3 who went nuclear tonight. They were counted out after going down 0-2 to the Mavs and fought all the way to their first WCF, without Kawhi or Ibaka, can't really ask for more though it would've been nice. Guess it's time to support the Suns who may once again face a team w/o its best player.

Kawhi probably isn't going anywhere, he wanted to be in LA and this run proved his supporting cast is definitely competent enough. The real problem for the Clippers will be convincing Reggie Jackson to run it back on the $10-$11 million/year the Clippers can offer him when some small market team is surely going to offer him $15+.

They really need to sign Reggie back though.
He deserves what Dennis Schroder is currently begging.

Probably not the $100-$120 million figure πŸ˜… but I can definitely see a team offering him what Schröder rejected (4 years/$84 million). Which the Clippers can't match, unfortunately. Still can't believe Schröder rejected that. Reggie came to the Clippers because of his friendship with PG and PG has supported him this whole time so I'm hoping that's worth more than $20+ million dollars to Reggie lol.

GRATS to the Suns…this is an absolute DREAM season for them!

But the job is NOT done…you still gotta win the Finals.

And let me say from experience…do NOT let this opportunity pass you because you never know if it will be your ONLY opportunity.

CP3 has been in this league 16 seasons!

16 long seasons…he’s been on some GREAT teams as well as awful ones.

And until NOW he makes it to the promised land.

I’m sure he wants to walk away with that ring.

1. It looks like Atlanta may sneak into the finals if Giannis can't play. I am glad Phoenix made it too, it did not want to see Kawhi-baby Leonard in another finals at all!

I really hope Giannis comes back and you guys give it your all.

I think regardless of what happens, this is a vastly better team than last year's or the year before that.

And I'm not saying that because the Bucks are in the Finals....when Giannis went down, I thought for sure the Hawks had the advantage, and yet, that wasn't the case.

And then today ON THE ROAD, and Trae was playing....and the Bucks still were able to seal the win.

That's a very difficult thing to do.

I'm just glad that with all the runs during the game, the Bucks led wire to wire and never gave up the lead.
Jrue is such a difference maker from the last few years. When he's aggressive and finding guys for easy shots the game just flows better.... and obviously his defense is on point.

2nd round predictions:

Sixers/Hawks - Sixers

Nets/Bucks - These to me are the two best teams left right now. Taking Bucks in an upset.

Jazz/Clips or Mavs - Jazz

Suns/Denver - Suns.


Sixers vs Bucks - Bucks in 5. I hope I'm wrong but this is the worst match-up for Embiid, Ben and Tobi.

Suns vs Clippers - Suns in 6. IF some miracle Kawhi comes back and isn't a shadow of his former self ala Harden, I'm going with the Clippers.

Suns vs Bucks - Suns in 7. If Giannis is back the whole series and isn't limited by his injury, I'd take the Bucks in 7.

Gotta say, although I like the Suns and believed in them from the beginning, they've been really lucky. I think they would've lost to the Lakers with a healthy Bron and AD, Nuggets with Murray, and Clippers with Kawhi.
