I liked Denver before the series and almost got completely through the series feeling the same way…the Jokic crap got me upset, but I think I’ve moved past it already. I don’t like Campazzo, I was continuously worried he’d get a suns player injured by the way he played, but the rest of their guys are very likable. Helps that we swept them, hard to develop bad feelings, haha.

Yeah, I had to watch that shoulder check Campazzo laid on Paul near the end of the game a couple times to make sure it was his non-injured shoulder.

This Petty Crocker prophet called it.

"Did I hit him? We don't know."

Yes we do.

Never doubt Bossman

Anyone know where I can find this flag?

Who is this? The hero we've all been waiting for.

Wow
These numbers.....

This really what we been through folks ?
Dang lol

Some perspective on the Asterisk talk circulating regarding opponent injuries and our success

Ok folks
Some insight from "the numbers guy" I follow and it's probably time we have a laugh at ourselves



Remember the frustrations with our offense especially late in games.
We need a Point Guard to push the pace
Man CP3 is good but not sure I want to watch him dribble around the ball til he finds a shot he likes
Why does CP3 always do that letting the ball roll to half court
Our offense is just Book n CP3 pick n roll into a midrange, guess we're gonna live and die by that this season

I'm just adlibing here, not gonna go looking for exact quotes
I know Split for sure used to try serve as the voice of reason and give the Well he was leader in clutch points with OKC last year to be fair comment

So we really not playing any different style to what most of us had a Love n Hate with during the season but our efficiency as a team been very good and full credit to CP3 for continuing to do what he does in the big moments

Am I the only one getting a little nervous about Covid with all this fan interaction?

With DA I was like cool, he kinda away from the fans still with just some fist bumps but that crossed my mind with the Monty vid.
Anyways, let's not think of such

I love how Monty and Sarver seem uncomfortable with all the celebrating when we're only halfway to our goal.

Ok, here's the deal...

The Good News: People who have had both shots of the mRNA vaccines (Moderna, Pfizer), plus two weeks, are really well protected, even against the Delta variant. The Pfizer vaccine looks to be about 88% effective against Delta (vice ~95% against Alpha and most others).

Bad news: still a lot of vaccine hesitancy. People who are resistant to the vaccine tend to be geographically and socially clustered. Also, US vaccination efforts have basically stalled out, with only about a million shots per day going in arms. Most of the people who want to get vaccinated, already have. Supply now radically outstrips demand.

Terrible news: The Delta variant (from India, also known as B.1.617.2) is ~60% more transmissible than the Alpha variant (from Britain, also known as B.1.1.1.7. It's also more likely to result in hospitalization and death. Delta is 2-to-3 times more infectious than the original variant that plastered the US early in the pandemic. Delta laughs at people who have had only one shot of Pfizer or Moderna, and the J&J and Astra-Zeneca viral fragment vaccines are much less effective. Right now, it only accounts for ~6% of cases in the US, but that is doubling every two weeks. Within six weeks, it will be the dominant variant here, if not sooner. With people dropping their guard, restrictions easing, and people who refuse to get the vaccine or mask up if they haven't been, we're likely to see clustered outbreaks in the US that burn through families and social groups and kill a lot of people by late this summer.

There's probably a 4th or 5th wave coming (depending if you count the 2021 spring break bump).

Of the teams remaining, are the Suns the only team sporting a 60% "drafted" starting lineup.

The Jazz have Mitchell and Gobert.

The Sizers have Embid and Simmons.

The Hawks have Trae Young and John Collins.

The Bucks only have Giannis (although they did pick up Middleton in his second season).

The Clips are starting ZERO players drafted.

The Sixers started Matisse Thybulle in the 5th game against the Wizards and he was drafted by the Sixers.
The Hawks started Kevin Huerter last night and previous playoff games they've started De'Andre Hunter, both were drafted by the Hawks.

Does that count?

I was going off the depth chart on ESPN. Probably totally wrong.
