[Mainstreet]

It's Western Conference Finals time

On Sunday the Suns host the Clippers in game 1 after they rally to beat the Jazz on Friday in six games.

The game is scheduled to be televised on ABC.

Start time is listed at 12:30 p.m. Arizona time.

It's time to take the next big step. Go Suns!

We’ll crap. I was really hoping for a Tuesday start.

Lets get it. With or without CP3. We are a better team with CP3 but we should be able to beat a Kawhi less Clippers without the point god. Lets get this win.

Was hoping Paul would have another few days to heal, along with my liver.

But... you've gotta like our odds.

It's my understanding the Suns will have something to say abound Chris Paul on Saturday.

I'm crossing my fingers and hoping for good news.

Congratulations to the Clippers for their very first Western Conference Finals appearance. Now that that's out of the way... let's CRUSH the Clippers!

Since the Suns have the best record of all remaining teams in the playoffs, they should hold home court advantage over every team they play.

Yes, Suns are guaranteed home court the rest of the way.

Lol. Nice.

One LA team down, one to go!

As long as we get a split in the first two games, we win the series. Let’s make sure we get that SUNDAY and then get greedy on Tuesday!

This is the Clippers first Western Conference Finals appearance in franchise history.

Suns in 6, possibly 7 depending on how many games Paul misses. I'm considering him out for game 1 right now though.

I'm excited for this series! Gotta love a good challenge...if we have the meddle to get past this clippers team, it will allow us to shred whatever comes out of the East. IMO

Suns -4 for game 1. With Paul expected to miss game 1 (and probably only game 1) that suggests the Suns will be pretty large series favs.

I’m still wondering why people are saying it’s probable someone who just got into the Covid protocol on Wednesday only misses one game in a series that starts Sunday.

Maybe because he's fully vaccinated?

Get an earbud and listen to Al McCoy call the game while watching the film. Not like you need to hear that movie.
