Let Reaves have his fun. He just won a damn playoff game for the Lakers

He was awfully good. Nice to see Russell look good too. We need him.

 

[Newhouser]

looks closely at who is waving at him and taunting him….still highly skeptical…

Is that Weitzman...oh wait wrong thread

 

[Eric15]

Jimmy Butlers offensive game honestly reminds me of MJ’s late in his career in the sense that he focused on overpowering smaller guards, working his mid-range game and only taking threes when necessary.

I've been a Butler fan for a while. He's one of the few guys that really is tough and that runs off on his teammates.

 

[UpstateSM]

Russ' stop start is still so freakin elite

 

[Eric15]

Russ is 3-19 from the field because of course he is.

 

[ssbriefcase]

Russ is 3-19 from the field because of course he is.

Yet he's crushing it all over the floor on D

 

[OttoinGrotto]

Russ is 3-19 from the field because of course he is.

They're going to win because of some of the plays he made too though .

 

[Eric15]

That defensive play by Russ was unreal.

 

[ssbriefcase]

There were some insane defensive plays down the stretch from both teams

 

[UpstateSM]

Wish I still had my Russ t shirt. Love that dude.

 

[OttoinGrotto]

Good game. Clippers took it to them.

 

[MikeSU02]

Man, when Kawhi plays, he’s still ridiculous. Dude was carrying the Clips and playing KD on D.

Playoffs have been great minus the injuries so far.

 

[OrangeDW]

The full Russ experience.

If the Suns lose to the Clips without George…..KD and CP3 - there’s just no excuses.

 

[Knicks411]

Ultimate Westbrook game

The suns were down 3 with 17 seconds left and Booker decided to try a contested drive for a 2. Just shoot a 3!

 

[Day2]

It’s different to shoot 3-19 and still have a great game, but Russell Westbrook is that dude.

100%. Everything comes with the Russell Westbrook experience. No picking and choosing. You get it all, and you'll like it.

 

[STEVEHOLT]

Reminder that Luka is a chubby, ball hoggy, selfish crybaby loser.

“MVP”, my ass.

hes like a james harden who wins less.

They were giving him plenty of space for the 3 too. I couldn’t believe he didn’t take it.

 

[Cusefan0307]

I know it's foolish to make proclamations after game 1, but Phoenix is in trouble IMO.

 

[NineOneSeven]

Man, when Kawhi plays, he’s still ridiculous. Dude was carrying the Clips and playing KD on D.

Load mgmt to keep guys fresh for playoffs just to land on the floor awkwardly in game 1 for 3 key guys.

 

[Newhouser]

Booker is great but he cannot take more shots than KD. Kawhi with a nice reminder yesterday of what Kawhi can do. Great opening games.

They could be.
