Was a great game and an exciting finish. The Suns are now 1 win away from competing in their first Finals series since the days of Charles Barkley and Michael Jordan. The Clippers are doing better than I would have expected without Kawhi, but they just don’t have enough to beat the Suns. Maybe next year will be their time, but I think they’re still a missing piece away from being a true championship threat.

Yes, both teams (Clippers and Suns) are playing really well, for me it makes the game more exciting.

Look, I'm pretty sure if Kawhi hadn't been injured, there was a good chance the Clippers would beat the Suns.

I'm cheering for Suns and Hawks to reach the NBA finals. Both teams are surprising me, Young, Booker, Ayton and other players, it is deserved for them to reach the finals as they "carried" the team on their backs in previous games. They are young and are standing out in the playoffs

Suns now are just one win away from getting into the NBA Finals.

On the other series, I guess the Bucks have a great chance of advancing because they are so dominant although they loss in game 1.
We don't know but let's cheer on our favorite team. If we have the Bucks vs Suns in the NBA Finals, it should be an even match, we see good odds for this match-up, so I'm hoping that would happen.

Did we just really witnessed the worse shooting percentage of both teams Clippers and Suns?
Everything is not going in, outside shots, mid-range and even lay-ups. Grin

It was not fun to watch when you see superstars missing most of their attempts even in an open space. You cannot even call it good defense but just an off night.

Suns won but I don't see any good highlights of the game. Although there is one record that was broken, Zubac longest play time in the playoffs game or maybe his whole career. 40 minutes. Grin

I also think that the pick n roll is so effective and that because of paul passing ability the clippers team have their hands full who will receive the ball, and they can't match Ayton having successful pick n roll with paul is unstoppable, just what I just said the last game, suns coach should have let paul try to read the way his teammates play before he starts, but even though they lost the last game, they have to make plays better now, unlike the last game, booker still bothered by his injury in the face but i think he can manage the pain.

Everything seems good with the Phoenix Suns' chemistry now and the next game would be in their home court where they can play with their own fans cheering for them. Ayton has been doing his best since game 1 and if they can finish the Clippers on their upcoming game, his value will be skyrocketed after this season. Anyway, Kawhi should play now because they cannot be sure if they still can reach up to Conference Final next season.

Trae Young's performance in this match is the exact opposite of what it was in the first match. It looks like the Bucks found an effective way to defend against him, considering that they forced Young to commit nine turnovers during this match.

Stars have bad days so maybe this time bad luck hit him thats why he has bad performance on their last game. But next game is big adjustment to be made by hawks since they already experience how hard Clippers to beat on if they are in good shape.

Can't wait to see their next game since its revenge time for hawks.

This is the finals, opposing team will tighten their defense, I don't think that Trae Young has a bad day, it's just that the Bucks has obviously adjusted at they have seen what they can do. Just 15 points tonight, but for sure he will comeback from this bad performance, that's why supposed a star do. You forgot that bad game, move on and redeem yourself. Specially the next game will be on their home turf. Expect Trae Young to go strong in the first 2 quarters and not let the Bucks pull away.

Totally agree. Bucks already made a solution on there game 1 mistake and now they totally shut down the scorer and game setter for hawks. Having a 34 points score lead really show how dominant the Bucks on game 2 but still Hawks have a home court advantage on next 2 games plus they might have a chance to defeat Bucks once they bring back momentum since they steal 1 game on bucks home court.

TBH, I never thought that there will +30 handicap on there match. My +10 bet got burn down.

Despite of that blowout win by the Bucks, I still don't think that this series is already over. I'm sure the Hawks will also make some adjustments, and they will bounce back in game 3 to take the lead. Still, Haws are underestimated, they maybe have a bad game but they are a legit team so they'll bounce back like the Bucks did to them in game 2.

I hope so that they will not copy the clippers performance. Clippers is totally shutdown due to only few players are scoring and it was easy for sun's to counter that. I'm seeing same scenario to hawks by trae young shut down. If they don't solve the problem about scoring without fully depending to trae, They might suffer a reverse sweep on this series.

I also think that the pick n roll is so effective and that because of paul passing ability the clippers team have their hands full who will receive the ball, and they can't match Ayton having successful pick n roll with paul is unstoppable, just what I just said the last game, suns coach should have let paul try to read the way his teammates play before he starts, but even though they lost the last game, they have to make plays better now, unlike the last game, booker still bothered by his injury in the face but i think he can manage the pain.

It was indeed a good and tight low scoring game.
I'm surprised Booker really stepped up as he's a bit struggling to find his rhythm while heavily guarded by Beverly. But that defense wasn't enough and still Booker scored 25 points.
We all know without Leonard the Clippers would struggle. Though they still have a chance to comeback from a 3-1 deficit, but I have a little faith they'll make it.
The Clippers needs to find a way how to win in 3 consecutive games, and that's never going to be easy.

With CP3 moving the ball and letting Booker to do his job Suns managed to win the game.

Even with that questionable blocking/offensive foul of Booker, very crucial and the ref are really trying to help Clippers to win, but coaches strategy played well, that fouling whoever holding the ball and not to allow Clippers to rotate and set an attempt for 3 point shot. Very intelligent decision. CP3 in that last few seconds really take charge making sure that they'll going to escape this game with a win.

If you are talking about Chris Paul, we should disregard everything about Covid why the Phoenix Suns lose on Game 3. We all see some adjustments made by the Clippers on that game which they should be as Kawhi Leonard might not come back on the series or even to the Finals.

Yes, I was referring to CP3. I hope he came back 100% healthy as he is a key player for the Suns.

Last quarter, 5 seconds to go, the game is very competitive and interesting. Both teams are playing well

In one hour, Clippers - Suns game is going to start. The series is 2-1 now. At Clippers, Marc. Morris may not play due to a knee injury. He couldn't play much good in the series so far. So I think that it won't affect the perfomance of the team much also. I think it is time for Clippers to equalize the series. But I feel like their job won't be easy this time. I expect a solid performance from Suns too. But at the end, I believe that Clippers will win the game by less than 10 points.

With Cam Payne back this is really going to be a hard-fought game for the Clippers even at their home.
There's a big difference when the Suns give him more minutes than Chris Paul. They could go back to fast transition plays and dictate the pace of the game.
Clippers can't find their shooting range just yet. I wish they can on the 2nd half to make this game more entertaining.
It's all good looks and not even contested but they can't put it in.

Clippers struggling from the outside, they have missed a lot of three point shot in the first quarter. Suns up 29-20. Ayton is killing them inside, while Booker taking Zubac one on one and they have a nice lay-up.

It's a physical game, technical fouls have been called. Clippers need to shot and hit that basket, and make it close. Lots of games ahead, so lets see how the Clippers will come out in the 2nd quarter.

I agree, we love Steph A analysis, but sometimes it is overboard.

Exclude me on that. Stephen A's analysis doesn't have any strong references. His analyst is just coming solely on what he thinks, disregarding any other factors or references that should be part of making a complete and making sense analysis.

Any predictions for today's Clippers vs Suns game?

I know, it's a silly question, but when a player gets infected with covid-19, after his recovery does he come back 100% as before? Or might you have some difficulties with breathing, blood oxygenation and other things?

2-2

For your question, if these players are having conditions as you mentioned, then they will not be cleared or allowed to play.

If you are talking about Chris Paul, we should disregard everything about Covid why the Phoenix Suns lose on Game 3. We all see some adjustments made by the Clippers on that game which they should be as Kawhi Leonard might not come back on the series or even to the Finals.

Agreed. Jrue stepping up his aggressiveness on Trae was key. Atlanta will need to find another way to win than just Trae. Someone else has to step up big time in atlanta otherwise Bucks will just smother trae.

Yes, I also agree with that. Trae Young is playing like an Allstar player, he is young and he's playing very well. It is interesting that other players help him, for example Capela, Bogdanović and other players.

I do not think that it would be fair to put all of it on Trae Young. Kid is just a young player who I know normally scores more and only had 15 but the reality is that they got scored 125 and that is not all on him, they needed better offense to match that and Trae wasn't the only one missing. All in all it is still a road game and they got one on the road, it is great to be 1-1 after first two games when you are not at home.

The same in the last game of Suns, Booker just scored 15 and even CP13. It's not always that this superstar can deliver huge numbers. The most important things to look at is how they are going to rebound after that bad performance.

Quote from: FanEagle on June 26, 2021, 03:16:08 PM

If they are lucky they could beat Bucks twice in a row in Atlanta and that would allow them to be up 3-1, which we all know is not guarantee of a series win in NBA, we have seen many 3-1 comebacks but at this stage of the game I would say the difference between the teams are not that big to make a huge comeback and nobody in Bucks could cover that difference for 3 games in a row. So Hawks just needs to focus on this next 2 games, very crucial.

Right, they are in their home court, so they are comfortable. They will take it one game at a time, and who knows, they can be up 3-1 in this series. Both are aiming for the finals, so they will give everything at this point. Hope though that there are no more injuries from either teams superstars. We want to see a good and fair match wherein their respective superstars are are performing high level basketball.

Trae needs help from the rest of the team, this is what I like with Atlanta the coaching staff allow Trae to takeover and with the support he's getting from his teammates the adjustment are being done inside the court.

Last game really off night for everyone, Bucks played good defense and Giannis really attacking them with much higher confidence.

Just like what I've said, it's up to Hawks to adjust and find the right system, they need to move the ball and they need to help Trae
to find his comfort, defense always pointing him rotating to free him or to find the best options should provide by everyone who are
inside the court.

Bogdanovic was the second really good player after Young but injuries are crashing him in this play off not 100% in this games,but when he is 100% he is a really deadly shooter. But Young is dominating the playoffs and they got a break in Milwaukee so this is actully really good for Atlanta

Game 2 was their biggest loss of the Hawks but I believe in this team, they have reached this far for a reason so they will not easily give up and let the Bucks dominate them throughout the series. They just have a bad game, and it cost them one game only.

We've seen a lot of that scenario, just like when the Bucks were dominated by the Nets, but they come back with a good strategy and beat the nets in the end.
