I can dig out the forum rules if you insist, but would anyone mind saving me some time by answering a rules question?

In addition to the ban on the posting of whole articles (I saw that part), what is the policy on such things as GIFs and youtube video links? I dunno, perhaps they're frowned on because of bandwidth concerns or something. I wanted to post some of that stuff to mock Jae Crowder's low blow, but I don't know if it would be allowed.

Cam Johnson says Chris Paul helps to make decision making (the game) more black and white.

Darn it, Jae Crowder, you make me feel in a difficult position. Here is why it's really making me mad that a Suns player apparently pulled a Draymond Green move. Like most people, I don't like hypocrisy; but I'd be one if I personally complained about Draymond Green's dirtiness, now that a Sun shares it. If I sniff to a Warriors fan "your team has a groin-kicker!" they can say "Yeah, so does yours."
Here is the thing. I think most teams that make it to the finals have "that" player. I don't mean necessarily and overtly dirty but someone who at the very least skirts that line. It's a level of physicality and mental toughness most title teams have. It sends a message to the other teams that you are not afraid of them physically or mentally.

Anyone know how to catch the game on the radio out of state? I can’t use 98.7 app because of geo location

For people's convenience, in case I say anything that makes anyone think "Was he even watching the game?" (I probably already did), I'd better explain something: I'm not, because I can't. My family cut the cable a few years ago; so whenever I comment on a current game, it was only an impression I got from the box score, or something I learned seconhand on this forum. For instance, until you members said it, I didn't know that Crowder "thugged" on Doncic by kicking him in the groin.

Besides that you can credibly say I don't know what I'm talking about for the current Suns--I probably don't--this partly explains why I obviously have more to say about the Suns before about 2016. I haven't seen them on TV since then. Except last summer when network TV carried the Finals.

What can I say, except to note that the NBA didn't care about viewers who didn't have cable, only about the money it made off cable network contracts.


Have you tried Sling TV? I just signed up for the playoffs for a more reliable way to watch the Suns since all playoff games are on either ESPN or TNT. I'm paying $17 a month. It's supposed to be an introductory offer, 50% off for the first month, but I'm canceling and doing another trial when my 30 days is up. Even still, $35 isn't too bad for one month since that should cover the remainder of the playoffs.

Thought the same thing. Kind of dumb to give the Suns bulletin board material for the next round though.
We're not going to need bulletin board material when we play the Grizzlies in the next round. Plus, Green will be in Cancun anyway.

I still think GS wins, but either way we are going need everything we can get to beat either one.

I was just joking about it since Green made the quote. I do think it will be GS due to their experience but I wouldn't be surprised if the Grizz pulled it off.

Some reason? I think he probably likes making poorly thought-out contrarian comments like that, to feel proud and to irritate people. And to get attention, like Dennis Rodman wearing stupid-looking hair and a wedding dress. Well, Draymond Green is the closest thing this NBA has to Dennis Rodman. A basketball genius who behaves obnoxiously.

He has been very clear in his dislike of Sarver

Suns understand they need to bring the juice tonight after the way they closed game 1.

I am no longer a Suns fan for the excitement. I want boring Suns blowouts.
Same. Totally good with watching with a big fat smile on my face all game instead of pacing for the final hour.
