I won't mind if CP3 gets a ring now since it would be a slap in Harden's face. Ideally, Giannis or Trae will win it all (those years of rooting against Lob City and Houston are hard to put aside), but I'll grudgingly admit that Paul makes his teams better.
I'm I wrong to think the Point God ought to get one Chip before he retires. He has been a great villain, he is a fierce competitor, and he never sold out and went went full super team. ATL, Travis & Trae have already won by getting this far, the Clips have no soul, MIL? Yes, I would like Giannis to get off the snide, but then we would be stuck with Bud for another 4 years and we will miss what Giannis could become under a coach who knows what he is doing. In the meantime, you got Book playing with a broken nose, ditching his face mask, Ayton and the rest of the team playing chippy bar fight basketball ... against a team I really don't like. Of all the guys left in the 'offs, it does feel like Chris Paul's career deserves one last piece of hardware.
Just rewatched game 6 of 2019 finals n goddammit I'm so grateful I'ma Klay, curry, green fan over some of these other players, Paul George could barely get any buckets all fourth quarter, Klay put up 30 on 12-18 in 3 quarters before going down. I really believe he has the will power to come back and be his same self.
Bench CP3 and I'll root for the Suns. Payne had a better game 2 and Paul comes back, has a bad game and they get beat and Payne got off the bench for about 5 minutes. I will cheer for Booker at any rate. Clippers don't have a chance with me. I don't like Kawhi or PG13. Or Lue.
Liked for having the good sense to mention me by name again. I feel like at this point, you’re just trying to please the search engines and capitalize on my brand.
Can't wait until the season is over with. All of the supervillains have been eliminated. There's no more excitement. I honestly do not care if the Clippers win the title or not that franchise has been pathetic for decades they might as well win one now and go back to the shadows forever.
Rooted for the Clippers to expose the Jazz last series and they rewarded me. Rooting for them now because they have battled with a ton of adversity and have a lot of individual players with intriguing storylines. George, Batum, Kennard, Mann, even Cousins a bit when he plays. And Reggie Jackson is the most fascinating of all to me, he was out of the league at one point a year ago and now he's playing like a superstar.
Unfortunately for them, I think the Suns are just a better team if healthy. Clippers really could have used Ibaka in this series against Ayton, let alone Kawhi.
“if I can get Steph Curry the ball for a f**king shot, why would I shoot?” Draymond Green on criticism he doesn’t take shots 🙄
That really piss me off, Draymond can work at least on his floaters , mid range or open shots, it’s easy to have +10 assists when you have Curry , why doesn't he commit to work?
Still rooting against the Clippers, there has to be some sort of negative karma, no matter how small, for acquiring a fortune through a life of crime as Ballmer et al did, doesn't there?
I’m just confused here. I guess I can root for the Suns as long as Paul is out. But how could I possibly root for the side step and stop king of annoying foul creation, who taught Harden everything he knows about how to age gracelessly while leaning on the refs gullibility to succeed? Was Harden truly the foul hunting flopper legend before Paul went to the rockets? I think Paul’s done more to re-ruin the league than any other player of this era.
Go Suns! Just so they can blow the series when Paul returns.

My main takeaway: Wiseman in next year's WCF Game 4 will also have 19 pts 22 rebounds, guaranteed.
Oh fer the love of Odin, DeMarcus has got to know the rules on how to miss a free throw. PG13 *just* did it 10 seconds ago
The Suns are folding on us, folks :(
If Chris Paul wins a ring, the narrative should be, “Imagine what he could’ve accomplished if he didn’t have to play in the Steph Curry era.”
I can live with that.
