    Ayton, Booker, Durant's first half tonight.

    Half time in Charlotte.
    Suns are cruising 57-41

    Durant 5 for 8, 2 for 3 from three point land. 12 points
    Ayton 6 for 8, 8 rebounds. 12 points
    Booker 6 for 11, 12 points.

    The three of them combined shot 17 for 27 from the field, 63 percent.

    I have a funny feeling CP3 is happy as a camel on hump day.
    All he has to do is distribute the ball like the Hall of Famer that he's going to be.
    The other three can worry about the rebounds and scoring, oh yeah, I think Chris Paul is a happy camper.

    It's unfair, this team is scary good.

    You have that aforementioned trio providing the scoring, Ayton grabs the boards, CP3 the dish man, Booker is probably the best SG in the game right now, Ayton is a top six center, seven at the lowest, and KD is KD.

    CP3 will cry to the refs, Ayton will get pushed around, Booker will shoot 20 3’s and KD will have the night off because of “load management”

    I'd pay beau coup cash money to see a Suns/Bucks finals.
    How great would that be?
    Or a Nugs / Suns WCF.

    The Lake Show is a joke.

    The GSW dynasty, IMO, has come to a close.
    Clips? Westy is still turning the ball over at an alarming rate. 13 TO's in 3 games.

    I'm tired of the C's, and Miami, as much as I appreciate team defense, is boring.

    Cavs could steal a series in the East playoffs.

    Would love to see Sac-Town make a deep run.

    Nice hit.

    Here's the thing with Philly, they don't know how to win.
    Harden has been to one finals, and that was 10 years ago.
    Embid? He's never gotten out of the Conference Semis.
    Tobias Harris, he's never sniffed a Conference Finals either.

    Only man on that roster that has a ring is PJ Tucker, and he pretty much came off the bench for The Greek a couple of years ago.

    76'ers have zero winning pedigree.

    Come to think about it, discounting that 2008 Celtic team which Ray Charles could have coached, what has Doc Rivers ever won?

    People can talk about them all they want but I will tell you there’s 0 chance they are winning it all.
    There’s not one guy on that team that is a killer. They are mentally weak. Durant needed to have his hand held to learn how to be a sinner and then lost that understanding because he got his feelings hurt.
    I’ve said every year I’ve been in this forum that Paul will never win a title and I stand by it

    This sums up the sentiment even many suns fans have. Mortgaged the future for a guy in his feelings. An excited new owner…

    Agreed.

    KD is a POS person. Paul is as well and so is Ayton.

    he wasnt the leading scorer. the team doesnt look good. the factor is that coach, former average black players tend not manage top players. unless you labum.

    Paul is aging and they don't have anything past the big 4

    That said the bookmakers must know something because they are the favorites to win the west and 2nd favorite to win the title

    Beating charlotte is nothing special. Jury is still out
