If Kawhi comes back that may be to our advantage. No way he's 100%.

Haven't heard anything. Woj said yesterday they might have more info on him in 24 to 48 hours.

Actually two down. Monté isn't related and has no history with us, but he's a Morris.

hahahaha Forgot about that one!

One Morris per series limit, thank you.

I'm more nervous about CP3 news tomorrow.
Hoping he's able to play game 1.

Should Monty make everybody stay on their shooters and let Ayton only protect the paint?

They might play 5-out and Morris could kill us from 3 if we don't send Ayton out to guard him. They have some things they can do, but without Kawhi it will be much harder for them. But they did a great job in that series. We can't get happy on the farm just yet.

No sir. Monty won't let us.

I can't wait until they're holding that Larry O'Brien trophy and Monty tells them, "Now you can get happy on the farm!"

Yes, have Ayton post up multiple times in a row to start the game.

Especially if Paul is out, we need Ayton to help carry the scoring load.

Posting up Ayton all the time is scary to me. He tends to not connect with the pass and then if he does, he get’s swarmed and turns the ball over. Prefer mostly lobs with him. His percentage is much higher.

And they are all M. Morris to boot.

I didn't like the Jazz before and I hate 'em now. No way they should've lost Game 6 even with Mitchell and Conley less than 100%. They've always been pretenders, a regular season team.

Based on the Suns never winning a championship, I would say they have always been a regular season team too.

Not this year.

Terrence Mann should just retire now; that will undoubtedly be the best game of his whole career. Wow, what a choke job by the Jazz. To be fair, both of their starting guards had major injuries, but oof. How do you lose to the Clippers with no Kawhi? Come on. I think we can do much better.

This is funny

When I saw the result, I half-checked the boxscore and first thought the Clippers were up 20 at half-time. Reading the board made me realize it was in fact the Jazz who was up 20. What a choker!!!!

Clips only played 6 guys and some change last night. Beverley is the only guy off the bench that got double digit minutes. Kennard, Rondo, and Zubac did combine for about 20 minutes.

They seem to have settled on Jackson, Mann, PG, Morris, Batum as their best 5. A few mismatches I like:

Book with Mann in the post and no rim protector.
Ayton if he gets Mann or Jackson on him.
CP3 with Batum in a switch.

Also I imagine they’ll put Jackson on Bridges? I think Bridges can take advantage there.

On the other end, I imagine the clips will try to attack Book and CP3 with PG..don’t really see many other weak points. Perhaps Jackson getting Ayton switched onto him.

There are plenty of ex-Suns scattered around the remaining teams also:
Nash, Mike D, Morris, Tucker, and yes, Bogdan

Last night, apparently. I'm not sure which one is fictional at the moment. I'm hoping it was a one off.
