Can't believe Paul has played over 40 minutes. Booker 45, KD like 41. Kawhi resting. If Kawhi plays Saturday, we might have some guys a little tired, especially it being such an early game.

Desperately need Payne back to give us some pace and some swagger. Old man Paul desperately needs rest too, but because he can't hit anything when his legs are gone.

Hopefully Lee has taken over Shamet's spot permanently too.

It’s the playoffs, a win is a win doesn’t matter what it looked like.

Lee and Bizzy should be the only bench guys at this point

Our poor free throw shooting has cost us 11 points.

Unpopular opinion: Both the Suns playoffs wins have been extremely unimpressive

Craig was easily the 2nd best player for the Suns tonight, pretty obvious that this team just isn't that good. Poorly coached, aging superstars, a soft center, and marginal bench

Suns are lucky Craig hit that that 3 a minute or so ago, and Hyland had that one go in and out. Otherwise Clips are up 1 (we wouln't have fouled them intentionally).

Serious question from a statistical standpoint and wondering if anyone knows or knows how to find out.

How many times has Chris Paul missed "both free throws."

Book's 45 would be a lot more impressive if the journeyman on the other team didn't also put up 40
