ROUND 1, GAME #3 SUNS @ Clippers—THURS 7:30 PM NBA-TV/Bally

[ejftw]

Not sure why Lue is starting Norm, we need him for bench scoring, it's clear that Bones will now get a lot more field goal attempts.

As long as he doesn't play Russ and Bones together tonight, and Triple N don't botch every wide open three, I could see the Clips sticking it close.

Clips also need to stop with the drop coverage, it doesn't work against a mid range team.

[ejftw]

God I hate home teams wearing light colors.

[KL2]

Getting stops just to turn it over. Dumb.

[quote="Ballings7]People just don't get it and Kawhi is legitimately not healthy with his condition. Been a fan and supporter since his rookie days and will continue to be -- he's maximizing his capabilities I believe.

And he'll be back.[/quote]

imagine thinking this guy is somehow resting for funsies or load management when he literally was limping after the raps championship, and he JUST came back after an ACL injury and is ahead of schedule when everyone else would still be slumming it. body mechanics are linked by a beautifully intricate chain and sometimes one thing at a time is manageable and really straightforward to deal with. but one issue on top of another, especially when they're in the same area or one group relies heavily on the other, can have compounding and multiplicative, deleterious effects.

Yes.

[KL2]

So much for role players playing better at home.

[ejftw]

Too many turnovers, 6 already, it's nuts.

[KL2]

Westbrook needs to settle down or Lue needs to give a rest.

That classic Morris defense.

Lue won’t play RoCo even with a gun to his head.

Turnovers and missed free throws. Recipe for a win.

[nickhx2]

lol

[LamarWho]

MMSr is back!!!

[og15]

I'll take the bank three from the corner. That's a fun shot to shoot in practice or in a shooting game, got pretty good at it, but in a game, it's always an accident for me

[KL2]

Lue’s dream come true. Morris a cone on defense but he hit a 3 so he’s gold.

[Scoundreldays]

Lmao he banked from the corner

[og15]

Looked more like a push off to me, NBA rules and refereeing rewards pushing off too much (yes, I know Paul George is also a push off master).

[Ballings7]

COVINGTON

Bringin out all the stops this evening

[og15]

Bones can't be trying this iso game stuff, come on man, play smart, Paul is old but he isn't THAT slow

[KL2]

Now it’s dum foul after dumb foul.

Covington got 4 more minutes than I expected.

Good old Morris and his stupid technicals.

i'm all for trying to get hot and amp up the crowd but the playoffs are for when you take things seriously, not playground garbage

[LamarWho]

RoCo with a whopping 4 mins of PT. Now get off Ty Lue's back everyone.

[MartinToVaught]

The Suns are possibly the biggest frauds I've ever seen. They need ungodly amounts of ref help just to barely stay ahead of our Z-team.
