Do you realize that not one road team won game 1 of the playoffs?
This gives me some hope. We lost badly, but every road team lost, and several good teams had bad losses. It was just one game.

Between Brunson benefitting from a ridiculous whistle in the first half and an error ridden ending, Sixers suffered from some terrible officiating.

Tonight I learned you can hit a player in the face as long as they released the ball already.

What a great night of games tonight. I watch these teams and I just feel absolute certainty that our Suns are not title contenders. That gutsy win by Denver, the poise and the comeback, I just don't think these Suns have that kind of game in them in this postseason. We'll see.

They’ve had similar wins…like the Kings win that Beal sealed or the OT win against Denver…or the 21 point comeback vs the Kings.

I feel like the Suns could get hot and ride it to a title, but everything would have to break perfectly, so it's unlikely.

It’s a real shame the Lakers led the whole way only to lose at the buzzer.

I love seeing the Lakers lose. But it's probably bad for us to have them lose this series, since they'd be our next-round opponent. I would much rather face them than Denver if we were to beat Minny.

They will beat Denver, but a longer series would be nice

You know what? I don't really care. If we're good enough, we're good enough. I'll take the Lakers losing every time.
