These type of losses just brings most negative thoughts from me. Just can’t shake the feeling we’re gonna blow these next games. Feel like shit.

It was a dissapointing start.
Total No shows by Ayton n Cam Payne
And i think Montys worst coached game of the playoffs. He let Lue dictate the lineups he put out there.
But the main reason they lost is total dosaster on Defense complete with trying to double george with booker n CP while leaving Reggie Jackson twice

Same. Did they think the Clippers were just gonna roll over?

I'll really try to not think about basketball for the next 48 hours.

Clippers have momentum, Clippers have the confidence, and Suns just don’t have answers for them for most of the series. I’m at a lost.

A little bit, and Zubac as a late scratch caught them off guard. They didn't take Morris seriously.
I think they'll be ready in game 6, but I'm also pretty confident in this series going to 7 games.

Suns got completely outworked and outplayed. Super disappointing.

Bad time for our worst game of the playoffs. No positives to come from this. It’s all about how we respond.
We Suns fans know we can’t do things the easy way.

We have one solid win in this series. It is definitely not a good feeling going back to LA with a 3-2 lead. Suns did not show up defensively. DA was a minus 22.

Yeah, and those wins are without Kawhi.
I hope Ayton's not fatigued.

Suns really had a terrible time against the Clips' zone defense. We barely got any good looks all night. Chris Paul looked off to me. Payne also really struggled. Book had a big scoring night, and Cam Johnson continues to put up great numbers. I don't think Ayton had a bad game, but it reminded me of old games where he'd set a screen, roll, and nobody would pass it to him. Overall our ball movement really sucked. I hate when our guys don't look to pass or move the ball. The offense looked like a clogged toilet the whole night.

First bad game for DA, he looked like Rudy against the Clippers out there tonight. Honestly I’d match their small lineup with our own small lineup. Go ahead and start Ayton, see if he can take advantage, but I’d pull him early if he can’t and bring him in against Cousins, or Zubac if he plays.
The fact that the clippers can play pretty much every defensive style is giving us problems.

Offense was not our problem tonight. We can’t let them score 59 points in a half.

Clippers have outscored their opponents by 76 points without Kawhi this playoff. They have outscored us by 17 for the series. We’ve been out played all series. It honestly feels like we lost the series tonight.
Also I’m very up in my feelings tonight. Probably feel better after some sleep and but damn am I at all time low with this season. Never felt like this all season

You've got to come out ready to play. Those points you give up in the first quarter count just as much as any other quarter....

This series could very easily be over already and the clippers moving on. Take away the Valley Oop and whatever we did to hold on in game 4 and the Clippers would have taken this in 5.
Still, we’re up 3-2. We just need 1. Have we still not lost 3 in a row since January?

The Suns just got punked in their home gym in a close out game. It's just so...typical.
I'm a basketball fan before I'm a Suns fan, but I don't think I'll be able to watch/read/listen to anything basketball related for months if they blow this series.
