They know
Basketball.
Based on what I've seen of him with the Lakers, and here with the Pels.. I saw his potential/ceiling as a number 2 guy on a championship team. He's looking like a 1b guy on a championship team. 1b meaning, he's just as valuable and productive as another franchise 1a player. On any given night with that franchise player he might be the better player. Sort of like a Kobe, Shaq.. situation.

Folks really trying to compare this to moving up a few % points for the lottery. Brandon Ingram needed to be here to show his stuff.
If you're that desperate for a lotto pick you've got a very long way to go. This team doesn't.
Thankfully it doesn't matter cos we getting both.
Playoff game in which multiple rookies, including second rounders and UDFAs, have been vital parts of winning. And not for the first time this series.
That's special.
Personally, Jose picking CP3's pocket after Chris called him out in game 1 for even thinking about it was the best moment. Second would be when he forced CP3 into an 8 second violation.
Career low 4 points in a playoff game for CP3. As many fouls as points.
Herb has become one of my favorite players in the league.. He's got Ron Artest upside.
I feel like CP3 may have injured his hand though.
Apparently the Suns staff were taking a look at it at halftime and briefly on the bench, and he couldn't stop flexing it for most of the second half. It's got to be at least partly why he played so much offball.
On the one hand, sucks for the Suns if they have another major injury to another of their best players.
On the other hand, that is a risk you accept with a CP3 based team - especially at this point in his career - and we can't really get sentimental about it. Gotta win.

"He'll be First-Team All-Defense once they start watching Pelicans games."
Monty is absolutely going to get fined for his comments. The Suns are playing the Legion of Boom strategy of "if we foul every play, the refs won't call them all". We finally had a crew that didn't allow it as much. I'm hoping his comments don't bully the refs into submission in Phoenix on Tue.
The Suns are a dirty team that routinely flops and cries to the refs for phantom fouls while arguing actual fouls they commit. They routinely get phantom foul calls because of this. People have been ignoring that fact since they have CP3.
He preeching like his job is on the line? Truther?
"Coaches shouldn't have to come up to the microphone and feel like they're gonna get their heads cut off for speaking the truth."

I realize results-based analysis has completely taken over this fanbase but yes there were merits on both sides of the tank vs playoff discussions. However, there's no reason to re-litigate the situation especially if your only intent is to take insanely dishonest victory laps lol.
