OFFICIAL AROUND THE NBA THREAD - June 2021

[Chris Craig]

Suns going to the finals holy hell

 

[Chris Craig]

Beverly should be tossed and suspended several games plus fined. What a dirty player and I dint like CP3

Yeah he's gone. That's immediate ejectection

 

[Strenuus]

Finally gonna have a real champion in the NBA. No manufactured champion! Wooo!

 

[DDolla]

Phoenix: lucky no AD, no Murray, no Kawhi and now maybe limping Trae or Giannis

 

[Titan]

Clippers fell apart tonight. Only good thing about tonight is coach Billups can get to work now.

 

[Titan]

Just think the Clippers could have kept Chris Paul

 

[Chris Craig]

Phoenix: lucky no AD, no Murray, no Kawhi and now maybe limping Trae or Giannis

Couldn't have it any easier

 

[Dom McBlazer]

Phoenix: lucky no AD, no Murray, no Kawhi and now maybe limping Trae or Giannis

If they win it all, I HIGHLY DOUBT they give a shit. I sure as hell wouldn't if this was our Blazers.

 

[BigGameDamian]

Good for Chris Paul!!

 

[SlyPokerDog]

Mark Bryant sighting!

 

[theprunetang]

That's the first time I have seen CP3 go down without flopping. Legit dirty shit by Beverley.

 

[illmatic99]

Man I want that kinda celebration so bad

 

[tlongII]

Really happy for Monty Williams.

 

[KristinthBonkers]

Man I want that kinda celebration so bad

From awful to the Finals in just 2 seasons. Seems unfair but I’m happy for the Suns and fans and even more happy the Clippers aren’t going to the Finals.

 

[SharpesTriumph]

Beverly should be suspended 10 games since he has so much history of dirty plays.

Imagine if Paul tweaked his knee on the shove.

Seems so unfair. Glad for them. No they haven't won a championship yet. Hurts though watching them celebrate. Could have been the Blazers

Unfair is real man.

 

[noknobs]

Beverly is such a fucking chump

Somewhere Lillard is laughing his ass off.

 

[Pinwheel1]

Needless to say, we would be roasting Paul George right now if we had traded for him.

 

[JoshuaHall]

Man I want that kinda celebration so bad

I want a championship celebration.
I don’t give a fuck about a finals appearance. Well, I do, but not for a celebration
No participation trophies.

You gotta get there to win it.

Imagine if Paul tweaked his knee on the shove.

Ever since he blew out Russ’ knee with his “play to the whistle” nonsense on a timeout this guy has been dirty. After this latest meltdown, somebody (Kelvin Blevins?) needs to dive at his knees early next season. At least Blevins would be worth a roster spot, then.

 

[Tince]

Anyone left on the "Suns roster isn't any better than ours" bus?

 

[KristinthBonkers]

Looks like Billups will be able to get to work early.

Clipper Twitter is already blaming him for the loss because he was in Portland yesterday and not focused on the series.

 

[MickZagger]

This could’ve been our year to make some noise with all these injuries.

i agree. The best way to deal with a dirty player is to be dirty back.

 

[Haakzilla]

Somewhere Lillard is laughing his ass off.

...somewhere nearby in LA with LeBron

 

[SheedSoNasty]

I love seeing the parity this year. I hope it’s the new norm and these damn super stars teaming up can go away (it won’t).

It really made Paul's day though; did you see his bigass grin afterwards?

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

Just think the Clippers could have kept Chris Paul

Just think, when he was first traded to OKC, it was rumored that any team with matching expiring salaries (Blazers were one of them) could have had Paul for nothing. He was aging, had a huge contract and didn't look that good in his last season with Houston.
