You do realize all of them are younger and have achieved more individually than Booker. Ja is having a better series now against the Warriors than any series Booker ever had. Luka toyed with the Clippers facing Kawhi & PG13 and is just flat out the best player in this series, and Tatum was dominant against KD whilst being the number one offensive go-to guy. What has Booker done?

Tatum just went 4/19 in Milwaukee. I guess Booker is the only one allowed to have bad games (And Booker last night was nowhere near as bad as Tatum was today).

Of course, he has the worst game of his postseason career right after our discussion , but even then, look at how everyone is talking about how bad Tatum was because expectations are higher. Booker had 18 points, made no impact whatsoever and no one even mentioned it, just because we know his ceiling is lower.

Expectations for Tatum are higher, and not for Booker? His ceiling is lower?

Dude you are just making up **** without any factual basis.

Tatum had ZERO impact on that game yesterday. The Bucks were just happy to let him go 1-on-1 all game.

Make a poll and ask who has the higher ceiling, I'm sure you'll be even more shocked if you think my opinion is somehow way off.
Also, Tatum had a bad game. LeBron had 8 points in a finals game. It happens. Btw nice deflecting on Ja who had an amazing game.

But Booker isn't allowed to have bad games - got it.

And Ja had a nice game! 30 point loss!

Oh no, he's welcome to the next 3-4 games being as terrible as he wants.

Mavs going to need more offense today while maintaining the defense. Can't rely on CP3 stinking up the joint again

Well, mavs shot 33% from 3 and still won. So yeah, hopefully they get that back up. CP3 been around vefore, we will see if this last game screws with his brain. Its easy to play when everything is just rolling.

Guess the AAC will be even more full of energy tonight

If our bench hadn’t collectively regressed into ass tier offense I’d be a lot more confident RN. Even if we get by the mavs I don’t see us beating the warriors unless Shampayne steps up and figures out how to shoot above 35%.

Of course, he does, but his standards are lower so people pay less attention to it. That's what happens when ur not on that same tier. Also forgot to add Tatum is a way better defender than Booker. & for Ja, so individual performances in losses don't matter? Ok

I think the Suns are regretting waiving Jevon Carter. Not that he's been a revelation or anything but he gives you an option of benching these underperforming players.

Lol, i'm still more worried when Monty will figure out that Mavs have no answer for Ayton. I'm shocked he's not averaging at least 40 FGA per game.

I can confidently say the the Suns aren't regretting that at all. And that he would make zero difference right now

[azcatz11]

If anyone wants free money bet the suns -2.5 today

[life_saver]

Hoping for a Luka masterclass

[jym85]

Can we just get some neutral refs that call stuff evenly on both sides while avoiding giving out ticky-tack perimeter fouls that get major players planted on the bench?
Please

[greekbuck34]

Come on Mavs! Win this one and cause them finals PTSD. All of a sudden they start doubting themselves.
"Maybe we are not that much better than them in the end".

If the Suns win it's basically over.

Boston won. The Bruins that is
