Beal being the main aggressor letting KD and Book float is crazy to watch, where was this all year?
Jones and Vogel out, Lue or Lee in, draft Grant Nelson or Tyler Kolek.

Ya this was the one matchup I feel kinda good about. We should win. Denver waiting round 2…which I weirdly prefer to OKC

Off-ball scorers vs on-ball scorer. Took 'em 80 games to figure it out.

Kinda funny to see Okogie play like he’s Booker
Would you bring him back for next year? What if this is the offseason he finally develops a 3pt shot?

Respectfully I don't know how you stop all 3 of them.

I remember when a lot of us were frustrated at chasing regular season wins only to be worn down for the playoffs.

You might grow old waiting for him to develop a consistent shot...

He has a player option I believe. I’d be cool with him back at that price. I wouldn’t pay him and I wouldn’t give him a rotation spot. But ya if he wants to stay and be the 12th man I’m all for it.

So I'm late to the party here, but with all the results today, is it true that we face the Wolves in the 1st round? Oh please let that be true! We own these clowns. That is literally the only 1st round matchup where I think we would have a good chance to win.

Yes we got the Wolves and early odds slightly favor us in the series. Line will probably move further towards the suns I’d expect too.

I thought I heard that the Suns had one of the toughest 10 game stretches in NBA history. Was it the toughest to end the year, or toughest period? Perhaps I didn't hear that correctly either. Well, to get ready for the playoffs, they finished it 7-3. That seems pretty good.

Ok, I'm happy they won of course...the extra drama aside...I'm glad they won. We didn't NEED to have had this drama...we really didn't...as they shouldn't have LOST the game I paid $250 for...%$#@...but...%$#&...I'm glad they won.

I do think I'll be attending at least one playoff game dressed as a paper boy and carrying a sign with a switch-comb growling at Booker, "You owe me $250! $250 CASH!"

Hmmm..maybe the Loch Ness Monster to play center?

And how about Bradley Beal! Man, did he really just figure out how to play with this team in the last two games?!

Beal and Ant talking some mad shit to each other this game.
Minnesota broadcast:

"There’s a lot of smack talk coming out of Bradley Beal's mouth. He’s talking to the wrong guy!"

These announcers were pathetic! Then they were asking for suspensions because the Suns bench came down during the altercation. Is that even a valid rule during a time out?

I don’t know if I’ve ever hated the announcers from the opposing team as much as these guys today.
