June 29, 20214 yr The problem with this matchup is that PG can still easily be, at times, the best player on the floor.

June 29, 20214 yr That's a furious sequence of sloppy ball by supposed stars the last couple of minutes.
June 29, 20214 yr Author This game is frenetic. I always get a kick out of crowds yelling "beat LA" against the Clippers.
June 29, 20214 yr PG has been phenomenal and this Clips team is dirty. On nights like this PG is as good as anyone left in the playoffs.

June 29, 20214 yr Sorry am I missing something? Reggie Jackson is all I'm seeing meanwhile PG is shooting 15/20 with 11 boards and 6 dimes.
June 29, 20214 yr Time for Suns fans to be nervous about this series.Eh, the Clippers had one of those nights where they shot the lights out, and the stars for PHX had a down night. They’ve shown great difficulty in sustaining performances from PG over consecutive games, so I guess we’ll see. Shit, if LA wins this series I think they’ve earned a damn ring, and I can’t stand them.
June 29, 20214 yr LMAO. Nah, fuck Paul George. He is as front running a guy as there is. They led basically the whole game last night and Reggie Jackson was the one answering little runs by the suns. When he leads them wire to wire when the rest of the team is not playing well it will be the first. Edited June 29, 20214 yr by Llogg

Kevin Durant/Kawhi is your teammate and he still trying to be the man.

Lou Williams sucks in the playoffs too, but no one cares because he's fucking Lou Williams. The expectations aren't there. In a 7 game series, even all-time great players can be expected to have an off night. But, with PG13, you can pretty much pencil in at least two games a series where, he's not only bad, but is so bad that he gives his team almost zero chance to win Edited June 29, 20214 yr by aggie08

You can argue 2017 Warriors was pretty weak (although that 2017 Cavs team was filthy). They are still NBA Championships but they are not run the gauntlet titles like 2011 Mavs, 2014 Spurs, 2016 Cavs, 2004 Pistons etc. Some playoff runs are a bit more competitive than others. Jury might still be out on this year's Bucks team but it's quickly becoming a weak title year. If the Suns get through healthy then I guess that's a good win but that remains to be seen. Sure there is but why give a shit? There are what ifs in every title run.

This was Kawhi's team and they lost him for probably these whole playoffs. And they took care of Utah and now has taken the Suns to 6 games and maybe 7. No one would have batted an eye had LAC folded to Utah after Kawhi went down. But they did not lose another game. I will give him props these playoffs. If LAC loses to the Suns it won't be because they choked as they have been notorious for in the past. How many wrote them off when Kawhi went down? Many thought Utah would roll through.
June 29, 20214 yr Terrance Mann did drop 39 points on Utah in Game 6. Reggie Jackson set the Clippers all-time record for made 3s in a playoffs (I know the Clippers have a shitty history but still). PG has played pretty well for the most part outside of a few duds including missing free throws late @Suns in Game 1 or 2. I'll give him credit.
June 29, 20214 yr The real person we should all be apologizing to is Ty Lue. I always just thought he was a LeBron plant with no real coaching skill. I was wrong. He can coach.
June 29, 20214 yr My issue with that Paul George meme is that it's aggressively unfunny. I can't decide if it reads more like it was made by a 14-year-old Clippers fan or Paul George's mom.

He can coach. I'm in the same boat. I just wrongly assumed he was riding the LeBron/Kyrie coat tails, but he is a damn good coach. Frankly I did the same about face with Spoelstra several years ago. I should know better by now than to fall for the LeBron woe-is-me PR machine that sacrifices coaches and teammates at the drop of a hat.

June 30, 20214 yr Disagree. They don't get out of the first round without Kawhi.It's the Mavs. They would have found a way to lose. It's what they do.

June 30, 20214 yr goddamn just checked in to see the bucks have 30 points in 18 minutes of ball. turrible
June 30, 20214 yr 1 minute ago, Mitch Cumsteen said: Atlanta finding out how much easier it is to play defense 5 on 5 tonight. Yes. Trae Young is a net negative. And last I checked Lou Will is playing plenty of minutes. More like the Bucks sometimes forget how to play offense. They had multiple games like this against the Nets.
