Yes, but there is only 1 Isiah Thomas who was still scoring and hobbling even in a very bad manner, in a Finals at that.

I don't think anybody mentioned the new minority stake Lakers ownership that changed recently. Dodgers owners are now involved.

A sign that Ainge will be running the Utah Jazz. And If he does, he will working for part owner and Boston nemesis Dwayne Wade. How ironic can it be.

This can make sense as Ben doesn't have to shoot when they have Steph and Klay. Maybe Warriors will offer them Wiggins.

to me it suggests that Warriors management isn't planning to blow up the team any time soon. (there was a rumor LeBron was recruiting Steph)This can make sense as Ben doesn't have to shoot when they have Steph and Klay. Maybe Warriors will offer them Wiggins.

That sort of recruiting, I have not heard , so far. What will LeBron give from his stable for Steph that the Warriors will accept as Steph's contract ends in 2022?
This kinda popped out of my newsfeeds, was interesting to read, that I kinda even agreed with such a trade package for Lillard.

There's going to be a total cleaning of the slate as Lillard as I mentioned before is signed thru 2025 with a range of $43m to end at $54m on his last year. The whole bus might not even be enough.

Lakers cleared house for AD so who's left to pony up for Lillard. Perhaps trade LeBron for Lillard or even the Clips can trade KL for Lillard

I thought Khris Middleton ws the X factor last night. If he says hot the Hawks will have no answer and will lose this series. Here's the read of the day on Middleton

I never was a fan of Jalen Rose as a player and as far as being a basketball commentator, iMO he gets even worse marks.
Not that I'm a Kevin Love fan but the comment from Jalen Rose was totally unnecessary where he said Kevin Love didn't deserve to be on the team.
I think Rose is the worst basketball reviewer on television, but that's just me

We all had this talk before the season started...namely its not only about speed, finesse and accuracy but so also which team is the healthiest and so far Phoenix (although a darn good team) has ridden a wave aided by the opposing team's' injuries
A healthy KL would have provided a different result unless if course the Clippers win the next 3......well they won 4 in a row previously down 0-2 but never 3-1
Good fortune always plays a role...this time the Suns enjoyed it.
One small consolation is that CP3 will get a shot at the Finals.
A little painful at the end but all told can't complain about the season.
