Why is Boogie not getting minutes?

Because they do terrible when he is inOriginally posted by BluehorseshoeComment -
Because the Suns would probably go on a run with him out there.Originally posted by BluehorseshoeComment -
Because it's a close game and they want to keep it that wayOriginally posted by BluehorseshoeComment -
They have only made 1 3 combined in 2nd halfComment -
Zubac is doing absolutely nothing though.Comment -
He's been good on the glass and he's not giving up easy buckets in the paint.Originally posted by BluehorseshoeComment -
This game is insane... These teams should be wearing throwback jerseys.Comment -
5 for 31 from 3s for the Clips
That's ridiculously badComment -

no coming back now
clippers were trying to crawl out of the grave again today and then on the final step (trying to get a lead) they stumbled and fell back in on top of their head... knocked out
will lose game 5 by 20Comment -
No they won't.Originally posted by ThaTopMoronComment -
That's gotta be the closest wire to wire victory ever... Clippers never had a lead but it felt like the kind of game where the lead was exchanged a dozen times or so.Comment -

Live betting thing bro. Books were never going to give suns ml + at much of a deal.Originally posted by Eddy MunnyComment -
I agree. Clippers are done. George has mental issues, and the Clippers aren't winning anything without Leonard -they know this. Suns don't want to come back to LA.Originally posted by ThaTopMoronComment -
Why does Paul George demand the ball every time at the end of games when he can't make FTs? Makes no senseComment -
Yeah, kept bettors waiting all game too.Originally posted by lakerboyComment -

Suns -3500 to win series. Death curseComment -
Doesn't mean the Clips couldn't have taken a lead, or even tie for that matter. The books didn't miss all those shots.Originally posted by lakerboyComment -
Live betting is just an algorithm, it's automatically controlled, books don't set any live lines, it's a machine, it's changing second to second. Clippers were +100 with 3 minutes to go, they were +450 to start the 2nd half.Originally posted by lakerboy
Books don't know who's going to miss or make a 3 in a crucial moment. Odds live can go from +150 to -200 in a 5 seconds. I bet an MLB dog the other day in the bottom of the 9th at +350. Odds went to -250 after they hit a double with the first batter and no outs.Cause Sleep is the Cousin of DeathComment -
Game 4 was interesting. Lie screwed up the lineups again like he did games 1 and 2 against Dallas by starting Morris over Mann. Morris Hasn’t been good for a while since he’s dealing with a knee injury and it made no sense to start him over Mann. Lie did finally get the lineup right and went with Mann instead of Morris in the 4th but the Clippers got in a hole early on part because that idiot had the wrong lineup out there early in the game.
The Clippers stopped running their offense the final 5 minutes of the game, it was all one and one isolation stuff.
Horrible that Cousins didn’t know you had to hit the rim on a free throw miss too. Phoenix got basically zero from Crowder and not much from Bridges.Comment -
George is fine he just got tired at times carrying a big load with Kawhi out, they are playing every other day.Originally posted by IBetYouComment -
I don't mind Morris starting, I don't think it's a make or break decision. The Clippers are working with an eight man rotation right now, so Morris is gonna have to play quite a bit. Mann still got 33 minutes to Morris' 22.Originally posted by thomorino
I didn't like the play that was drawn up out of the timeout though when the Clippers were down three. I would've liked to see Kennard (their best 3pt shooter and freshest legs on the floor) get the ball off of a screen for a stop and pop... If it was executed properly it could've eliminated the chance for the Suns to foul, lest they send a shooter to the line for three FT's.
But what happened was Paul George got the ball with his back to the basket and the Suns just immediately send him to the stripe. I'm not even sure what kind of shot PG could have gotten off if he wasn't fouled there, likely would've been a high level of difficulty heave for a guy that was running cold and gassed to boot. Maybe the Suns thwarted the original inbounds plan, I dunno, but that was a junk play out of a timeout.Comment -
Yeah I agree it wasn’t a make or break decision to start Morris over Mann, but it’s obvious Morris isn’t healthy with the knee injury, he was horrible this game which is why Mann got far more minutes, but starting Morris, who I like but he’s clearly not healthy, really hurt them early.Originally posted by Eddy Munny
Lue just can’t coach offense, and it showed in the second half, with the 4th quarter being the best example. Isolation sets were too frequent and the adjust meant to attack the paint more since three pointers weren’t falling because of fatigue wasn’t made either.
I also put the Ayton basket that won game 2 for the Suns on Lue. You have to be switching pick and rolls or playing zone at the end of the game, if you switch pick and rolls zero chance Ayton gets that dunk. Lue has been badly out coached in this series, the Suns are scoring on almost every play after timeouts, like with the Ayton dunk late in this game.Comment -
He can’t play any defense and Zubac has played well anyways. I doubt Cousins has the conditioning to play many minutes anyways since he hasn’t played much for a while.Originally posted by BluehorseshoeComment -
I wouldn't say badly outcoached... The Clips are a couple of plays away from being up 3-1 in this series instead of down 1-3. Even game 1 was very winnable for the Clippers but that was probably the most "definitive" Suns victory as the other two PHO wins had razor thin margins. The Clippers are missing their best player and best big man, and haven't had an extended break in these playoffs since game 2 of the Mavs series. Lue hasn't been perfect but he's holding up pretty well all things considered.Originally posted by thomorinoComment -
Disagree, the reason the Clippers haven’t had any breaks is because Lue handed games 1 and 2 to Dallas by starting Beverly over Jackson and playing the wrong lineups with Zubac getting too many minutes and switching pick and rolls too easily on Luka. The Clippers should have beaten Dallas in 6 game at most, he basically handed them 2 games and they have wearing down since then.Originally posted by Eddy MunnyComment -
Starting Beverly who has been hurt all year over Jackson in games 1 and 2 against Dallas when Jackson had been playing very well for nearly a month is one of the dumbest decisions I have ever seen a coach make, and the Clippers haven’t been able to get any real rest since they went 7 with Dallas.Comment -
It doesn't matter, they beat Dallas, that's the bottom line... Had they put away the Mavericks in six games, they likely would've still started the Jazz series two days later, because the Jazz had wrapped up their series and were waiting for an opponent.Originally posted by thomorino
The fatigue factor was compounded by injuries forcing a short rotation of players Lue trusts. But Lue still managed to close out the Jazz even though they lost Kawhi when the series was knotted 2-2. And like I said, this series has had razor thin results... The Clippers are a bounce of the ball away from 3-1 rather than 1-3. I don't see how Lue has been "badly outcoached."Comment -
kawhi looked like a thug up there in the box

Kawhi can't even fly per a doctor recommendation, his knee is fukked, for now.
