MPJ is a talented scorer, but man can he be frustrating to watch sometimes. Dude never passes and he falls way to in love with these tough shots. Not every time you touch the back you gotta put up a shot man.

MPJ cant dribble to save his life. Thats why he settles for so many contested shots.

Oh I agree 100%. His handle was one of his biggest critiques I had for him pre draft. And I know he is a hell of a tough shot maker. But sometimes the dude needs to realize sometimes it’s okay to pass up a bad shot.

Rivers is **** right now. But maybe Denver gets Barton back eventually—we’ve onlybeen hearing that since the bubble.

lol Reggie, "They are both underdogs"

But you passed me the ball, why wouldn't I shoot?

Can they play the next 6 games right after this one? We are looking at the series of the playoffs.

CP3 is easily getting paid this summer if he opts out

[TheAlchemist]

DeAndre Ayton has done a phenomenal job on limiting Jokic.

He's also done amazingly well on the offensive end and I can honestly say that if he takes another jump from here, Phoenix will be at the top of the West for years.

Who knew CP3 for Rubio would be the difference between a lotto team and a possible champion?

That Clippers/Mavs series was pretty damn good though

I really feel like this one is gonna boil down to the last 6m of game 7. I wanna see some coaching adjustments and counter moves.

It’s kind of a fine line for him because he can drop a large number of ridiculous shots, as he showed in the close out game with Portland when he tied the playoff record for most 3s hit in a quarter.

Ayton is an absolutely the perfect fit for the Suns. Just a machine on both ends out there. So much so that in one of the most stacked drafts ever they shouldn't even have regrets. He's shooting 80% in the playoffs!

[OkcSinceSGA]

CP3 being back to his usual level = Suns in 5. Will become a blood bath if he’s healthy IMO.

[Ballerhogger]

Wow the Suns are on fire .. 109 where are you nuggets !?

Yeah, the problem is that we cant afford him to pass up shots as he is our second option...

Except that's not what it is.

Rubio -> CP3
Bridges progression
Ayton progression
Booker progression
Crowder
Craig
Cam Payne full season

But sure, it's just Rubio for CP3

[Mk0]

I feel like Crowder hasn't missed a shot since Andre Drummond mocked him.

I like the overreactions after one game. lmao

[DRK]

Who was the guy on these forums in the early 2010's who was saying for years we need to be playing 4 out/ 1 in with Amare and Dudley at the 4?

Im sure he's an NBA coach now, but this team with Ayton inside is exactly what we shouldve been doing in hindsight.

Unstoppable.

[Ballerhogger]

Ayton really turned it around . Not good if he can contain Jokic like this going forward.

[manchambo]

I don’t buy Reggie’s comments about “not having to tax Booker.” It’s not like he gets to save the points up for next game.
