Series Thread: Western Conference Finals: 4) L.A. Clippers (without Kawhi Leonard) vs. 2) Phoenix Suns (without Chris Paul)

[Wamu]

Lately Wamu has been just picking fights with everyone which is fine but I don't get it.

Who have I picked a fight with? You had an issue with something I said about Paul George. Here was your response

No one cares.

And please don't embarrass yourself by saying this reply means I do. It means the opposite.

What's wrong with you today?

 

[DJ Fieri]

No way the Clips beat the Suns without Kawhi.

It is possible. They only lost by 6.

 

[tlance]

Have you ever been right? Just sayin

Haha.

Only in every conversation I have had with you.

 

[tlance]

If there's anyone in here who still doesn't consider Devin Booker as a part of a "Big 3"....then please, reassess your "knowledge" of the NBA, do a little serious soul searching, and take some pity on yourself.

Well, Booker certainly wasn’t the one most people would be doubting there.

It would be Ayton.

 

[DJ Fieri]

Playoff P the last 2:30. Only 2 shots. 0-2. one was blocked.

For the game: 10-26 (.385)

Good from downtown: 7-15

The rest of his shots though: 3-11


Don't know about anyone else. But I'm gonna keep making fun of him & his absurd nickname a little while longer.

10 of 26 isn't good.

 

[tlance]

Booker might be the best player in the Western Conference

Wow.

That might be the hottest hot take ever.

Might be a tad bit of an overreaction to a great game.

Seriously though, Booker is the reason why the CP3 MVP talk was nonsense.

Booker is the best player on that team. Can’t be league MVP if you aren’t the best player on your own team.

 

[Wamu]

10 of 26 isn't good.

Under the circumstances no it wasn't. Big game, and he vanished in crunch time.

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Yeah I could see that...but he's been solid for them in the paint throughout the season and in these playoffs.
He might finally be arriving into that status...and I think he actually already has..and a big part of that is due to CP3's arrival...and presence on the team....imho

FTR....head coach Monty Williams has been a nice influence too.

There was someone in another thread saying Booker wasn't....and couldn't be a big 3 type player.

It's all good though..we all have opinions....whether right or wrong....it is what it is.

 

[Pastafazul]

That would be you.

Lance is one of the smarter posters on these boards.

And that is what scares the shitt out of me

 

[Pastafazul]

Haha.

Only in every conversation I have had with you.

Especially the one about fizzdale, and how good a coach he is, And where is he today?

 

[thunderc]

LOL

Well I said might

 

[Pastafazul]

I see you’re not over yourself yet , wamu says, if you don’t , he join forces with me, and together we will be unstoppable.

 

[DJ Fieri]

Somebody doesn't know how to properly quote somebody.....and who is stupid? LOL.

 

[tlance]

2 types of coaches.

Coaches with talent, and ex-coaches.

Nobody ever said Fizdale wasn’t going to get fired.

Why do you have such a difficult time understanding the only difference between the 2 coaches, thibs and fizz was discipline.

Had absolutely nothing to do with roster .

You are the only one who continues to believe this , don’t worry , your bobble head cohorts I’m sure will come to your defense, but, man you are stubborn.

That is totally false man.

Thibs has done a great job. Fiz not so much.

But the roster this year is leaps and bounds better. Between individual improvement, player addition and roster fit, it isn’t close.

No knock on Ayton. He seems like he could very well be on his way to being a star.

Just guess I want to see him do more before I label him as one. CP and Booker make the game really easy for him right now. Not sure how much he would do without those guys.

Yeah but Chris Paul didn’t play, he will be back soon.
