It was rough for both of them.

well hopefully we have some decent refs in game 5 that doesn’t allow the aggressive ass clippers D to bully ball the whole game. The clippers are without a doubt gonna try and ugly it up again and take cheap shots. The Suns should be talking to the refs before hand and tell them they better watch and control Beverly or someone could get hurt! These thugs are just petty enough to sabotage us since they know they can’t beat us!

Booker was the Suns leading scorer with 25 points shooting 8-22.

Paul scored 18 points on 6-22 shooting. He had 7 assists.

Only 16 assists tonight for the Suns. I know shots weren't falling all night,but we've gone away from the ball movement that makes the Suns great and we're doing too much 1-on-1 ISO. We're not getting open threes for Bridges or Cam Johnson & we're going away from Ayton when he's producing. A lot of it is the physical Clippers D, but we need to find ways to get easier baskets... everything has been a struggle.

It’s not just physical defense. They’ve taken away book and Paul’s regular middie curls and are engaging them further out. Give Lue credit, he’s schemed a nice defense against us with good athletes.

I take this is a compliment from Chris Paul for Deandre Ayton.

Chris Paul said he didn't have a chance to feel the energy at Phoenix Suns Arena in Games 1 and 2 and he's looking forward to doing so in Game 5 and returning to Phoenix for the first time in a while.

Shows how terrible Jokic's drop defense was. Zubac and the Clippers have done MUCH better with it. Still, if they're taking the mid-range away, there should be openings somewhere. The lack of ball movement has been glaring to me.

Devin Booker said he's not blaming anything on the mask but he's never played with it before and that it takes some getting used to. Decided to ditch it but joked that you don't realize how much you get hit in the face after you take it off.

Eh - Beverley is just in his head. And Book is playing into his BS. With bullies you just punch them back. Book needs to go right at him, the refs would love nothing more than to foul Beverley out of the game.
