Russell up Kawhi to Book KD & CP3 for a show in the desert.. Official Clippers(#5) vs Suns(#4) 1st Round Thread

[firemanBk]

People picked this Suns team to win the West in droves based on EIGHT GAMES where they played an insanely soft schedule.
It wasn't even 8 consecutive wins either like they had an actual streak going.

They have no depth & CP3 is completely washed

Once again
KD 41 minutes
CP3 41 minutes
Booker 44 minutes

This is not a sustainable way to win and this is not to mention they're playing a team missing their second best player who was their only All Star this season and now also missing their franchise player.

It's a long series. You can almost guarantee CP3 will lose a playoff series in dramatic fashion every season. I wouldn't be shocked if the Clips win it out over seven games. The Suns Big 3 are having to pull out all the stops.

Kawhi was out. It was PG vs the Suns in that WCF

My point exactly. Both are always out or hurt during important moments

12:30 PM PST on Saturday for the next game

this is egregious

 

[JesusFOREVER]

probably one of the worst officiated games ive ever seen, Suns aint making it out the west

 

[Splakavellie504]

And lost… Hawks got to the ECF too

It's been letdown after letdown

Kawhi was out. It was PG vs the Suns in that WCF

Kawhi played a big part in them winning during that post season before he got hurt. Also the clippers have never won jack shyt so Kawhi and PG (despite their injuries) getting them to their first west conference finals appearance is a pretty big deal. They did what Lob City couldnt do.

Surprised Westbrick didn’t chase those last two rebounds for a playoff triple double

this is egregious

League pushing it narratives and hoping outta hope KD plays either Bron or Curry

It's why Mark Cuban screws over the league anytime he can

 

[Devil Plisken…CMS]

I don't think it will, they have solid defenders but not great defenders which is a problem. And Chris Paul is turning into a defensive liability right in front of us. Murray should have an easy series. It's just how Nuggets will defend KD/Book. Being midrange heavy instead of driving might help Nuggets too.

The problem with that is there best player has the same issue Zubac has and every plotting big does. The Clippers got back in that game because there’s no need to drop when you’re small and can switch

They’re going to pick on Jokic really bad and there’s no alternative for Denver

High Pick & Roll Hell

You see it.

Bulls have Kawhi Jr on their roster and have regulated him as a spot up 3 point shooter.

Kawhi could've play with limited minutes, Clippers would've got this game.

Norman Powell probably doesn’t do this if kawhi is there.

I wonder how he's feeling about 46 free throws now
