I reeeeaaallllly like Bookers game and his demeanour. Unflappable. Silky smooth. And at 6'5 has the body to last.
Wish I I didn't dislike Paul so much, I could easily support this Suns team
Definitely got that sweet silky smooth movement and jumper. He does have a short fuse at times. He’ll hopefully mature and cut back the T’s and niggle.
Him and CJ McCollum are two of the smoothest players in the NBA.
Share your dislike for CP3. He’s no doubt one of the smarter players going round in how he plays the refs, uses the on ball screen and he’s got a reliable mid-range game. But he’s that guy on the other team that you hate and would easily fight if it presented itself...

@kiwimurph whos king is this?
The streak is over and to go out like Isiah Thomas and Detroit, not shaking hands, just cements MJs GOAT status.
I absolutely love LeBron but that is really shit from him. That and his social justice stuff lately is putting me off him a bit. Particularly when he posted that picture of the cop with "you're next".

Last year's two finalists are now out after struggling through injury ravaged seasons. I think the short turnaround cost them. The Lakers will have many questions about their personnel for next year after off-season moves didn't pay off. They had 3 bigs in Drummond, Harrell and Gasol that didn't seem to compliment each other, they have no 3 point shooting, and Schroeder appears to be a bust. And the West is only getting stronger.
Miami need another prominent piece, and they have some players like Robinson coming off super cheap contracts

Some fascinating series coming up, headlined by Brooklyn vs the Bucks
Suns v Nuggets is one that could go the distance.
If you’re a stats nut, this season theses two teams offensively are basically identical it’s almost uncanny.
Suns - 115.3 ppg, 43.3 FGM, 13.1 3PM, 37.8% 3pt%, 15.6 FTM
Nugs - 115.1 ppg, 43.2 FGM, 12.9 3PM, 37.7% 3pt%, 15.7 FTM

Bucks handled the Nets comfortably in the RS
We'll see if play-offs with the big 3 make a difference

Yeah that will be a good one. Nuggets doing great despite missing Murray

Yesterday’s game was something else. Blazers went ice cold in the last 5 minutes of the game and barely scored. This was after being on fire in the first half. Joker came alive in that 2nd half given it was MPJ in the first half.
There’s a supporting cast there for Joker, but he still needs to score big. In saying that, that is what makes this match up with Phoenix so fascinating because they are in the same boat with Booker.

Their ace is CP3. Makes everyone better on all levels

@act-crusader it looks like Dame might be re thinking his place in Portland too. That man is easily my favourite current player. But he needs to stay with it.. They need to get a consistent 6th man and a scoring big body. Like Aldridge, previously.

Apparently he has 3 years on his contract. Probably not going anywhere, unless he agitates for a move
-
@raznomore @canefan and $100m+ left on those 3 years for Dame....
I think he will agitate (as he has already tweeted overnight) over the next few months not to move but for the organisation to make changes. Stotts is cooked. Melo, Covington, Powell and possibly CJ are all bargaining chips.
Nurkic on the other hand seems to be agitating for a move!
-
I love his game, but maaaan is Luka a whiner.
-
@act-crusader I hope he stays and the blazers put together a roster to win

Sounds like Stotts and the club have mutually agreed to part ways. He did a great job in a small market, but just couldn't get them over the top. I think that is a lot to do with the front office not being able to build a strong enough team

Mavs currently choking hard down the stretch, Clips will win this and then it will be all on.
Jeez, after initial promise in NY, KP just isn't the second option they thought he would be. Or the one they need
