Always love it when the media act like a series is done because a team held serve at home. Did it in the Clippers series vs Utah as well. Utah won 2 close games just as Phoenix did and everyone in the media is talking about sweep and/or if the series is over. How about we see a team win a road game first?

Found today that a floor cleaner in the NBA makes 80K yearly.....100K for the experience floor cleaners

Huh. For small market teams, you could live pretty damn well in the burbs outside the city for that. Strongly considering quitting and sweeping floors for the Hornets or Grizzlies

No idea.

Hopefully somebody Luka likes.

Looks like it's JKidd....

Sources: Mavs finalizing deal to make Kidd coach

The Mavericks are also close to hiring longtime Nike executive Nico Harrison to a front-office leadership position, sources said.

The Clippers won but Pandemic P is back.....9 of 26 is just bad. 2nd game in the last 3 games where he was horribly inefficient.....29 of 75 in his last 3 games (39%).

So happy he didn't opt for the Lakers.

Jackson came through and is going to get a nice contract.....

It wasn’t just that.

It was coupled with the return of CP3 while Kawhi is still out.

Suns are still heavy heavy favorites unless Kawhi returns.

You get that had he opted for the Lakers, you might still have AD too, right?

There's more to basketball than scoring lol. 15 rebounds and 8 assist is winning basketball.

And this was more like his first bad game. Game 1 he was dominant until the 4th but anyone who watched from start to finish would tell you he played really well. Game 2 was the opposite of game 1 for him. Not great the first 3 quarters but dominated the 4th until the missed fts

Lol. Funny thing about DJ is Middleton had a similar shooting night in game 7 vs Brooklyn but he was bragging to me about how good Middleton was lol but yer Paul George grabbed 15 rebounds and dished out 8 assists and he was bad? Weird

Payne got the only tech?!?!?!?!?!?

I was gonna say it was a joke he got one at all. But the only one?!?!

Ken Mauer.

I was pretty certain that the Suns would come out with a big 1st qtr in this one

Now it'll be interesting how the Clips push back

 

[Black Adam]

Sun's up nine after 1...

 

[bksballer89]

Clips settling for the 3 ball far too much. Shouldn't be attempting 15 threes in a quarter if you only hit 3 of them.

PG gonna have to find his outside shot quickly(been brutal since game 1) or its gonna be a real struggle to win this series with no Kawhi.

Yeah but I would like to see him start going for some mid range jump shots

There is not a single reason why he should attempt 7 threes in one quarter

 

[bksballer89]

This is dumb basketball

Oh absolutely. I didnt even realize he had taken 7 til after I said that.

He shouldn't be launching anywhere close to that amount. But I think whatever number he takes from here on out, hes gotta be close to 40% for them to have a shot.
