The Pels should just fly back to New Orleans during halftime because they will not be winning this one.

Did... did Ayton just airball an O board putback attempt like two feet from the rim? lol

Anyway, much better energy and effort from the Suns.

Terrific D to O conversions for points.

Ingram should've stopped after the first edible tonight.

Jarret Allen isn’t winning you anything. Garland won’t show up in the playoffs. Mobley is a glorified dunk man. Mitchell has some experience but is a liability on defense. To me, the Cavs are a treadmill team.

Pels fans shouldn't complain about the foul calls if you thought game 4 was reffed correctly.

Fouls and free throws don't have to be even for it to be a fairly officiated game. Within standard error correlation game 4 was fairly refereed from my perspective when watching.

This one is off to a very lopsided start missing a number of Suns fouls and getting every Pels fouls, no matter how soft.

Looks like the fix is in to me and I like the Suns and CP3 is probably my favourite non-Celtic player.

Where did CP3 find a time machine? He is looking like prime Steve Nash.

Good challenge but it shouldn't have to be used here to correct a bad call.

Booker needs to be removed the stadium, fined, and banned for a game for walking out on the middle of the floor during a game. What the hell man.

If a challenge is successful you should also keep your challenge as well as your timeout.
