NBA Playoffs WCSF, Game 7: Dallas Mavericks @ Phoenix Suns (3-3), Sunday 15/05/22

[The Bobster]

Nice outlet pass by Booker there.

[Flagrant Fowl]

Effort and poise. Another game without either.

[JJ Slim]

Can they just call the game now and save everyone the hassle?

This might not be popular opinion but you can’t let Ayton walk for nothing and you can’t trade Ayton for bunch of role player or some shit like that, that doesn’t help shit for what ever tiny window you might have, igaf about the cap flexibility.

The biggest take from these last two years, for me, is you can’t have your second best player be someone who’s 37 years old who physically breaks down year after year.

We need another star. Plain and simple.

Ayton is your best shot at getting one, so unless you can trade him for a star, your probably better off just maxing him and keeping him. You can always trade him later for bullshit if it’s time to blow it up or something.

Maybe you can trade CamJ, our expiring contracts and shit ton of draft picks for star but that’s probably a pipe dream.

My my pipe dream would be for KD, tired of Kyrie’s bullshit, forces a trade to Phoenix. Ayton and CamJ for KD? *j****

Monty is basically Doc Rivers now. Man cannot close or make adjustments. Crap. I really like the guy.

Same.

All you guys that said CP3s minutes weren’t a problem are eating a ton of shit.

Rather CP3 is worn out. Or he fucking sucks when we need him the most. Not only is he ineffective playing. His leadership was trash. His entire team has forgotten their offensive system. Pure panic. And he’s not setting them up or settling them down.

Get this team fresh blood. CP3 gotta go or not be relied on so much. He can’t last a postseason and I don’t give two shits about regular season success.

Just pathetic showing. A failed season. Waste of time. Anyone that is okay with regular season success and makes an appreciation thread is part of this organizational problem of being bad for so long that participation trophies are okay. Meanwhile GS, LA, and other organizations just rack up championships every few years.

[Mori Chu]

Down 42 at the end of the 3rd, 92-50. I feel a comeback coming on.

Like the team, he has been really patchy in making the right calls at the right time these playoffs

[djy2j]

Could be Aaron Holiday time

[The Bobster]

This one resembles the surgical job Cotton Fitzsimmons did on John MacLeod in the 1981 playoffs.

Is that when they lost to the Kings? What happened there?

Kings didn't have their starting backcourt from a 41-41 team and still beat the 57-25 Suns.

[JJ Slim]

I think CP3 is hurt and too proud (and stupid) to admit it

[Wally_West]

This isn’t realistic at all but I would love to see a Dame/Booker backcourt in Phoenix.

[SunsRIt]

I think CP3 is hurt and too proud (and stupid) to admit it

I do too. 2 years in a row.

[The Bobster]

This is garbage time. We don't need Paul and Booker out there.

[Sunsfan4life]

I can't believe I'm saying this...but I turned the game off

[JJ Slim]

I will say thought that this isn't all on Paul. The whole team has sucked.

[Split T]

I can't believe I'm saying this...but I turned the game off

I turned it off in the 1st half…great decision

[Charlie Smithy!]

And I suppose the same goes for Monty Williams for not being willing to sit him.

[TOO]

Anybody wanna start a nice we can trade everyone off-season thread? Can't wait for this shit lol. Goodbye Sheandre you useless turd.

[Flagrant Fowl]

This is garbage time. We don't need Paul and Booker out there.

To hell with that. They made this bed.
