NBA PLAYOFFS: GAME 3: Phoenix Suns @ Los Angeles Clippers (Tied 1-1) | Thursday | 7:30 PM

[Saberestar]

Here we go, a new 5 game series starts tonight!

We are gonna win and regain home court advantage.

Paul George officially ruled out for this one.
Cam Payne questionable again.

“ We are gonna win and regain home court advantage. ”

I love your confidence mate. Let’s not just win one road game but win all two.

Would really love Payne to come back but I think at best we see him back at home for game 5. Regardless though, Monty seems to have found a decent enough rotation in Game 2 and it gives me a little sigh of relief knowing that the Suns looked good in Game 2 versus what I saw in them in Game 1. I don't believe Craig will continue to post the numbers he has during the first two games of the series but as long as he continues to hustle and makes Kawhi work for his shot we should have enough fire power from our big 4.

I know some are upset at the number of minutes our big 4 have been playing, but in the playoffs all teams have their rotation tightened and play heavier minutes. I'm sure if our bench could manage Monty would love to give our starters 10 minutes a night of rest, but so far, I don't think we can afford to do that. I am hoping someone like Ross, Lee, even Shamet can produce some meaningful firepower off the bench tonight.

Man I can't wait to overreact to this game. If we lose I want to blow it all up in the summer, and if we win we're winning the ship this year!

It really feels like we figured out the Clippers in game 2, it was easy money for cp3 down the stretch in that game running the P&R with Book and KD occupying the 2 opposing wings.

Expecting a win here but I want to see Monty address our bench situation. We need some contribution from them against better teams, try some Ross or TJ, just do something.

I can't wait for fans to decide after the game based on the result if they will all think we are done or if we have the series in the bag after game 3.

Hoping we come out and have a big time first quarter and show the clips they don’t belong on the same court. Hopefully Monty can subtract 5 minutes off of Booker, Durant and Cp3!

Suns showed they have figured out the clippers in the 2nd half. I would be surprised if we aren’t up by 25 at halftime. Whoever made the halftime speech during last game should get a significant raise..it had to be either Monty or CP3 to rally our team up before we lost that game.

I think back to last season at the same time, we won game 1 but lost not only game 2 but also Book for a few games. I have to think now with health not being a serious issue plus KD, we gotta be in better shape right? I also feel that the Clippers don't have as strong of a home crowd as the Pelicans did last year. I'll see for myself as I am going to game 4. I think we end up splitting these games though so if we win tonight, I am prepared to watch a loss in person on saturday lol.

Monty please play Lee and TJ. Lee is a 3 and D player and you have a legit 6th man in TJ. I understand not playing Ross because he's clueless on defensive but please play Lee and TJ

lol what? that make no sense at all

If Warren is a "legit 6th man" then how Ross is not a "legit 6th man".

When you are considered to be a 6th man, your only objective is to score. You don't look for defense on a 6th man.

Hence why, Barbosa, Crawford, Lou Will, Clarkson are great 6th man.

Warren is not a "legit 6th man"...

[Frank Lee]

Book and KD will get their combined 60…. Its up to the rest to win the game. They shot the ball at high clip. Cant rely on that. The excessive minutes are concerning too but no choice. Its just a good thing the Clips are GeorgeLess else we’d get bounced

[Frank Lee]

We dont have a ‘6th man’ we have 6 ‘10th men’

Leonard aggravated knee in Game 1, played through it in Game 2 and is expected to be day-to-day ahead of Game 4 on Saturday, source tells ESPN. Injury isn't related to his previous ACL injury.

K.Leonard OUT.

[WeekapaugGroove]

I really hope the suns don't come out flat after that Leonard news, human nature to take your foot off the gas but the clippers can win without him. Burry them early.
