Disappointed that the Clips weren't able to put up more of a fight with the Suns. But at least Denver ended their series in 5 as well, so the teams will have an equal amount of rest. Here's hoping they play 7 very competitive, physical games.
Ty Lue, legend in the minds of broadcasters everywhere for his ability to "connect" with players: where would you put him on a scale from putrid to Popovich?
I'm glad Nuggets / Suns are entering their series healthy. I had this random premonition that Jokic was going to get hurt this round, and another series turned trivial. First round matchups have been kind of boring (I guess as expected) -- Kings/Warriors and Bucks/Heat as the main areas of interest. I would include Knicks/Cavs, except that I don't think anyone (outside of fandom) cares about those teams. Their players really have no national intrigue.
So, now that Westbrook is out of the playoffs, what do folks think is going to happen with him? Is some team really going to watch his play this postseason and think he's the answer to what ails their back court and sign him to a $10M/year contract?
Harrison Barnes missed the chance to dagger the Dubs and it felt great
Why don't we do it on the road?

There’s still of me that pines for the alternative universe where the Warriors homegrown lineup of Steph Klay HB Dray and Loon goes on a dynastic run.

KD playing 44 minutes in the first round against a team led by Norman Powell and russel westbrook is fucking insanity, wtf is Monty doing
Suns beat the Clippers 136-130 and move onto the next round of the series.
Westbrook has been horrible tonight.
Sucks for the Clippers. I like it better when they just choke a series rather than lose multiple bodies
Clippers keeping it close. Down by 4 with 3 minutes left
Clippers on a run. They're not going down without a fight.
Did y'all know that Loondawg had the highest ORtg in the league this season at 147.4? I did not.
Who you got Suns or Nugs?
Suns up 111-94 thanks to a 50-24 3rd quarter.
Complete Clips meltdown here — 33-7 Suns run.
