    yes, that experiment was a failure Monty's getting out-coached

    what does it take for Monty to challenge? that travel challenge would have saved us 3 points killed our run and momentum

    Clippers @ Suns Monday WCF game thread 6-28-2021 - Game 5

    Monty didn't have them prepared to exploit their advantages (particularly getting Ayton going) Morris and Cousins should always be doubled when they're pounding the ball inside. it's not like they're great passers Booker played defense with a "you fouled out last game" mindset and everyone was...

    Booker Question

    don't waste everyone's time Booker HAS been playing his position all year and is ranked 15 in most turnovers, while Lillard is at 23 with more ball responsibilities and you can't say Booker is better at team defense when the Suns have much better defensive personnel. you and that troll going...

    Booker Question

    couple of problems: 1. when you say "Books TO average is slightly inflated because of all the time he was forced to play PG," you are conceding that if his position was point guard, like Lillard's is, his turnovers would be even higher. 2. you say, in the "past" Lillard was rated poorly in...

    Booker Question

    making the team smarter is not "dumb", and i doubt Lillard is so awful defensively that, suddenly, we just can't bare to part with Booker's defense! don't Booker the ball by letting your emotions get the best of you Lillard's the better player. but that trade is just my opinion and will never...

    Booker Question

    if Booker can improve his defense with a good coach and defensive minded supporting cast, there's no reason Lillard can't. he's strong, agile, and focused. i'd only hesitate because you could get twice as many good years out of Booker than Lillard (but if Lillard wants out, Portland could...

    Booker Question

    when he isn't frustrated, he might indeed be mature for 24. there's a lot of bright, mature people who get stupid when agitated (it's a trend in America) let's hope we get to the Finals and the Bucks (preferably) haven't got the personnel to push Bookers buttons like the Clips

    Booker Question

    if we win the title (and i think we will) i'm good with Book (until CP3 leaves. then the situation has to be re-evaluated)

    Booker Question

    as i said, i do think Booker will improve with experience but we probably all know people who were bad decision makers at age 24 and were still making bad decisions at 34 (if not their whole life) and the kind of decisions i'm talking about are tied to his emotions those are the hardest to change

    Booker Question

    as of May "Lillard has scored 149 points in clutch situations this season, per NBA.com. That’s 20 more than anyone else." - The Ringer they also ranked Booker 20 and Lillard 11

    Booker Question

    i do believe Booker's bball iq will improve with experience but i think his decision making will always be his flaw i'd only keep him if he can paired with a bright point guard who can lead CP3 won't be around for long

    Booker Question

    i just checked the age difference, which is, indeed, a problem but Lillard is a much better clutch shooter (best in the league) and, i believe, like most, i'd rank him ahead of Booker in general Book looked like a top 10 player a few weeks ago but not today there are too many other players...

    The Miracle of Technology - Booker's Game 2 TO

    a lot of good posts here i usually prefer getting things right and don't mind waiting for ref reviews but this is over-kill and bad for the game it can also be too difficult to analyze when it goes out when fighting for a rebound

    Booker Question

    if we don't win it all proposed trade: Booker for Lillard

    Booker Question

    i thought Booker learned from Laker game 3 we squeaked by again because the Clips only scored 13 in the 4th but 1 of those points was courtesy of Booker's dumb*** T as feared, he over-reacted to a PG bump, got himself in foul trouble, and shifted into hot-head mode -- held the ball, forced...

    Suns @ Clippers Saturday WCF game thread 6-26-2021 - Game 4

    Etwuan Moore got a lot of playing time in our last regular season game and was terrific. i thought he could have at least given us some offense in the playoffs CP3 was more like CP1.5 I guess at his age there was some rust on his bones after 10 days off and no practice

    Devin Booker, Chris Paul and Patrick Beverley WCF

    i surely don't think Beverly intended for there to be head contact but i do believe he's willing to venture into recklessness Jokic didn't intend to hit Cam's nose either but he was ejected for being reckless with tensions high we have to play smart i'm sure the Clippers wouldn't regret both...

    The NBA is rigged

    it's true that they didn't "make" booker shoot like crap but they played a part in his performance we know that often this season, and in a few playoff loses like the last, book is triggered by a bad call (usually in the 3rd quarter). He picks up a few quick frustration fouls and has to sit...

    Suns @ Clippers Saturday WCF game thread 6-26-2021 - Game 4

    "Leonard likely will once again watch the game from a suite at Staples Center with his family. That move for Game 3 brought some criticism on NBA Twitter from people who thought he should be on the bench, in street clothes, both cheering on his team and offering advice and suggestions. That’s...

    The NBA is rigged

    yes, 1. we lost because our 2 stars shot 25% 2. every fan thinks the refs are biased against their teams at times 3. bad calls probably even out in the long run. It helps you win some, lose some. but that doesn't mean fans shouldn't complain about bad calls and bad refereeing. it CAN cost you a...

    Suns @ Clippers Thursday WCF game thread 6-24-2021 - Game 3

    only a trolling PoopHead would pretend he doesn't know that Kawhi gets and does what he wants with the Clips. if he wanted to be near his teammates to encourage and communicate with them, that's where he'd be. and if he does eventually play, i suspect it would be a game or 2 after someone else...

    thank you, official excuse-maker and 1tin contrarian but, if a luxury box is "safer for him" it's safer for every injured player this season and AGAIN, i've never seen that before not a big deal anyway shoo fly
