Lakers @ Suns Sunday Playoff game thread 5-23-2021 - Game 1

[Covert Rain]

CP3 is hurt. He doesn’t look right.

 

[Chris_Sanders]

Wait, how the hell was that a foul on Crowder?

That's what Wendy said!

 

[Chris_Sanders]

18 free throw to ZERO

8 on 5 officiating

He is not taking the 3-point shot.

CAM!

 

[thirty-two]

Cam!!

and agreed, cp3 is def hurt

 

[Mainstreet]

Cam Johnson!

 

[LoyaltyisaCurse]

This is very similar to the warriors game.

 

[SirStefan32]

Wow, they called a charge on LeBron!

 

[Ouchie-Z-Clown]

Is that really a surprise?

No, but that’s an ABSURD disparity.

 

[Chris_Sanders]

Booker rising to the moment

 

[ozzfloyd]

He is not taking the 3-point shot.

He's also not raising that arm to defend, can't throw a hard pass with that arm.

 

[SirStefan32]

Come on guys, finish the first half strong!

 

[Mainstreet]

Halftime:

Suns 53 - Lakers 45

 

[Ouchie-Z-Clown]

Monty needs to get a tech. ZERO free throws in a half is ridiculous.

 

[Chris_Sanders]

Book gave it up like everyone wants

To be fair there were a handful of no calls. The refs have been very one sided.

 

[Covert Rain]

CP3 can’t dribble shoot or pass right now.

 

[Chaplin]

Luckily we have another fifteen minutes for him to get treatment.

 

[Proximo]

CP3 can’t dribble shoot or pass right now.

yeah. It’s not great. At least he is smart enough to not try to shoot.

 

[nashman]

Glad we are overcoming the ridiculously one sided officiating right now! Hopefully Paul can get a little massage or something at the half looks to be nursing that arm. Praying it’s nothing serious that will affect whole postseason...

yup.

I hate to say this, but if CP3 can’t shoot, he’s going to be a liability out there because the Lakers are going to start sagging off of him.

start to the 3rd quarter is huge. Cant let them capture momentum immediately. Must keep pushing.

Listening along with the legendary Al McCiy while out. Surprised and pleased up 8 at half. Terrified that the ft disparity is 17-0 in favor of the idiots.

I'm feeling that way. I was confident the dubs were going to walk away with it before the refs wouldn't let la die.

Our first shot has to be by CP3. Layup, shot, whatever. Have to show the Lakers he can still be a threat.
