I also hope that CP3 doesn't retire, in these last seasons he played in the NBA he gave his blood in that games!
I sincerely wish he gets his dreamed ring that for me he deserves to win before he retires!!

But he is not consistent in a pressure game. I don't know what's happening to him every year. He began to slow down and shows inconsistency after getting the 2-0 advantage in this series. The reason might be, that Dallas Mavericks were able to think of a way to slow him down. Once Chris Paul was contained, it will affect the whole Suns' gameplay and the only gunner that the Mavericks need to focus on is Devin Booker, as the only player in the Suns that is consistent.

Anyways, since the series is now over. OP can now consider locking the thread.

I'm not certainly sure that he can be slowed down that easily, I mean they can limit his shooting presence but his mind can work still and still lay lay-up the table for the rest of the team just like he always did. He did managed tough times without Booker but when the intensity is all over him, I can really see that he is breaking down slowly that's why he repeatedly blow several chances like this. Yes, I hope that he will achieve his much wanted ring before he retires though.

It was a really lovely game by Mavericks which was very helpful for them to simply destroy Suns in the seventh game of the series. Who would have thought that they would defeat Suns this much easy? I didn't think so even for once. I was hoping to watch a very competitive game. But Mavericks were much better than them when it comes to the team play. There was zero player who got 20+ points for Suns. And I loved Doncic's amazing effort once more.

That was the surprise that most of us didn't expect to happen, I would say it's normal if Dallas won by a few margin, but game 7 was a total dominant, the hype for the Suns are gone now and Warriors are hype more. I like the playoffs now, lots of surprises and it's very hard to predict on what team will win in the Finals.

I just feel a little sorry for Chris Paul because I don't really know if he will continue to have such clear chances of being able to fight for the ring.
He says that next year they will be there again, and I don't doubt it but I think that next year there will be much stronger teams.

Another heart breaking loss for Phoenix and the repeat of last year result, the top team are out and now Dallas will move to the finals against the Warriors. Phoenix have an early lead on this series, its just that Doncic has been unstoppable and the Suns can't handle it. Too bad for CP3, he lose the chance again to at least fight for the championship well if he can still play, maybe next conference he can have the chance.

It's not their time yet and hopefully they will become more solid next conference, but rumors are CP3 will retire already so this can be another challenge for Phoenix to recruit other players that can help them on their next quest. Dallas really dominate the game 7, its too bad for Suns they didn't take advantage the crowd.

Chris Paul said he is not retiring but probably some of his teammates are not going to stay. There is no crowd advantage when Sun fans started leaving during the 1st half because of the large difference and the 2nd half they were quiet, the crowd morale is also broken.

Honestly...

I assume that giving up on the 7th game in your own court this earlier must have been really demoralizing for all of the players. I was thinking that Suns would advance to next round but they were never my favourite for the NBA championship. Doncic is showing his best play-off performance in his career. Besides, Mavericks showed an unbelievable defensive performance as a team too.

DeAndre Ayton only playing 17 minutes was pretty shocking to me. He's the guy that carried them to the Finals last year. I can't believe that we're going to lose another #1 pick because our management sucks. Monty Williams wins a coaching award and all the sudden he's benching their most promising prospect and trying to fight him on the sidelines of the most important game of the year? What a nightmare. Ayton is as good as gone from the Suns this offseason and they're going to be back to a mediocre team fighting for play-in games. An absolute shame. Between Booker talking trash and getting shown up by Luka, CP3 getting another year older, and now Ayton on his way out the door, this postseason was an absolute disaster for Phoenix on what should have been their most promising postseason run.

Too bad for CP3, he lose the chance again to at least fight for the championship well if he can still play, maybe next conference he can have the chance.

Doncic and a great help from Dinwiddie lead the Mavs and played their tails of from the start to the finish. This made them dominate the ring the whole game and that Suns have totally lost their chance to advance to Western Conference Finals. Well, this defeat must be very embarassing on the part of the star players of Suns but everything happens unexpectedly, as the used to be underdog is now close to its championship.

Not so easy, they have to get pass the Warriors first, if they'll beat the Warriors, I think they have a decent chance to win a championship. Again, they are still an underdog in the series, so if you are thinking of betting on them, you'll surely enjoy the 3.00 odds.

Warriors now are the favorite to win the NBA Finals. Bucks and Suns are already done, they were next to the Warriors in ranking, and Dallas is a huge surprise, so let's see if they can surprise us again in this series.

The good thing now is that Warriors have the home court advantage because they are ahead of the ranking, so it's good for them.
As long as they win the 1st 2 games, I would already be confident that they'll win the series.

I cannot help but feeling disappointed at the Phoenix Suns. Another time that they were the top team during the regular season and lost at playoffs again. I mean, they also have a great team on the paper. Good PG, solid center. And they were utterly destroyed during the last game. I know this happened a lot in NBA history but they were at least supposed to go to Western Conference Finals in my opinion. I like Chris Paul but he has that not-champion aura around him. He will probably retire before he gets a ring. So many legends have suffered the same. I wish this team's core stay together and get some better rotation players next year and try again.

I'm disappointed on there fans unlike other teams like Miami and Lakers that full support the team win or lose. Suns once again make the unexpected bad run on playoffs, Devin Booker becomes so arrogant as he keeps taunting Luka Doncic on there previous matches. It's so satisfying to watch how strong and confident Suns destroyed by Luka and the gang despite the odds against Mavericks. I hope Brunson and others will continue there support to Luka when they will fight against GSW on the final round on WC.

GGWP to those whose who bet on MAVS!

Crowd advantage will really give the home team a boost on their morale so their part is also important because the team will become steadfast to close the series in their possession, but seeing such actions earlier where most of the audience have gave up on cheering the Suns when they saw the score in first half. That fact alone would seriously affect the teams performance.

Anyway, there was this hilarious meme that was circulating in the internet after the Game 7 blowout where Luka was smiling while looking at Devin Booker. Luka was literally making fun of Booker after all that taunt he received in the past games.

Yeah, Suns choke in this series, they don't have answer to Doncic and then Brunson and Dinwiddie answering the call of the Dallas fans to response to the game.

And they exactly that in the last 2 games. Not sure what will be the future of the Suns now, and since they didn't offer Ayton a good contract extension, maybe he will exercise his option next season, who knows. Congrats to those who back up the Dallas team in this series.

So much for the "Suns in 4" chants by the Suns crowd.

Looks like the inevitable is coming, top 1 being ousted by the Dallas team. It was so embarrassing, down more than 40 points at your homecourt and then Luka just toying with the Suns defense. Too bad as well for CP3, last year was close enough for him to win a ring, but not this season. I think him and Harden are going to retire without a ring.

It's a crazy turn of events to be honest, having been 2-0 early in the series without Doncic, I thought the Suns would win at least a game in Dallas, then close out the series at home in 5 or 6 at the most, but here we are, the Suns are been obliterated completely, the Mavericks had all the answers to stopping the Suns, and to have won 4 of the last 5 games isn't something just being "Lucky" would have done for you. It was a duly deserved victory.
