Never said they would. I had Suns in 6. The talent disparity is pretty lopsided but the Mavs are fighters and they have the best player in the series. Making it close if they don’t win
Not just that, they play really good defense and in the playoffs that matters. The Warriors need to remember that tomorrow.

Seems like the Grizz play better D without Ja and their offense didn’t miss a beat. I expect GS to close them out though

I mean look the Suns probably have 4 out of 5 best players in this series.

Luka
DBook
CP3
Bridges
Ayton

Maybe some put Brunson before Ayton if he plays well but really that’s 4 out of 5 best. Prettt crazy. The Mavs have a lot of fight

Suns may want to consider actually trying to win this game. If there's a game 7, 100% of the pressure will be on them and the Mavs have the best player in the series.

The rule in this series is that the home team wins. Easy Suns win in Game 7.

People act like the Ws are some way better team. Grizzlies were the 2 seed in the West. And yes Ja is a defensive liability at this stage in his career like Steph used to be

Yeah it’s always risky getting into a game 7 when the superstar is on the other side.

Both are great teams, now this series seems a lot more lopsided. Mavs are starting a bunch of 2nd round picks around Luka. Gotta give a lot of praise to JKidd, he is a pretty damn good coach

When did the Suns sign Serena Williams? I just saw her foul Doncic.

Point guards seem to be good bets as head coaches. I'm trying to think of a good NBA coach who was a center. I'm drawing a blank right now.

The suns taking a night off again. Idiots. So frustrating to watch
Again, none of these teams are a whole lot better than the other. Losing on the road in the playoffs is expected

Lot of game left but this looks like it's headed to a game 7.

I think PG's are good bets, but they are definitely not 100% sure to hit. In baseball, it's former catchers. In football, I'm not sure. Football head coaches need to be big personalities who delegate well and see the big picture more than anything else, so maybe knowledge gained from a specific position as a player isn't so important.

Devin Booker the best looking guy in the NBA? Not too tall like Boban Marjanovic.
