Booker getting those prime MJ calls
It's about time.Out of the top 10 scorers in the league, he has the lowest FTA's among the bunch.Went on a 4 game stretch where he only got 6 FTA's total last week.It's absurd because Book plays aggressive.He likes to slash & draw contact.He's a physical player.I think he just whines to the refs too much and they don't like him.If he got those Harden calls, he'd average over 30 a game.

Wow the Bulls suck. Like for real. Donovan needs to go, he's just not a good NBA coach. He was just fortunate enough to coach KD for a year or two and KD definitely raises the stock of any coach he plays for. Donovan ain't done shyt since KD left the OKC.

Bulls have no energy, no motivation, that's an easy 1st round exit team. In fact I won't be surprised if they fall to play-in stage like 7th seed is very realistic.

yup 39-21 a month ago but theyve come crashing down to earth. it mighta been fools gold especially with the injuries. theyre 10th in the east in point differential and are primed to end up in the play-in. even with 9 games left and 4 games up in the loss column the way theyre playing that might end up falling behind the nets.

Size is gonna kill the Warriors

Suns are on a mission this year

NBA History tells us that we probably get a Finals rematch
History be damned; “Suns on a mission” be damned.

Warriors have dominated them in two out of the three times they’ve matched up this season, even with that size disadvantage, and they did it by shooting them out of the contest. The earlier they play the Suns in the playoffs, the better for them, as I can see their health being their demise. They’re the Walking Dead and won’t make it out of the playoffs alive. I don’t trust the Suns to maximise their size either, as Ayton was largely ineffective in those matchups. They also aren’t a particularly physical team, which you need to be to beat this Warriors squad.

Utilising size
Physicality/athleticism
Shooting.

That’s how you beat GS, and ultimately the Warriors will lose to a team with a combination of those attributes, but the Suns simply don’t have that in their favor.

You’re looking at two games

I’m looking at 70 games and the Suns are shooting just well and their defense is elite. Their discipline is much more sound than GSW.

You would be hard pressed to find another NBA coach that would be capable of this kind of collapse in a season.
