Kawhi Leonard created a masterpiece last night. 45 points including something like 12 in a row to close out the game. Such a bizarre series thru 6 games as the home team has not won a single game. Clips have game 7 at Staples.

Clips have game 7 at Staples. Those three pointers at the end were absolute daggers. One of the more entertaining games that I have seen in a while.

I’d trade AD straight up for Ayton today but the Suns wouldn’t go for it

I don't follow the NBA closely, but I'll tell you what is cool. Phoenix after years of average beat the Lakers in the first series. Their fans have absolutely freaked out. You are lucky they don't tear down their own arena. LOUD, completely fired up, its neat to see.

The other thing that is cool about the NBA this season and sports in general is the emergence of a new group of budding superstars making things happen on the playoff stage. Devin Booker, Donovan Mitchell, Andre Ayton, Jokic, and Doncic are taking over the game |

The Nets may be too much for any of these squads but it’s been entertaining watching these young guys shine |

Devin Booker, Donovan Mitchell, Andre Ayton, Jokic, and Doncic are taking over the game Geez, Where do I start Jokic is well past the “budding superstar” status. This was his 3rd straight All Star appearance, will be be 3rd straight All-NBA Team election, and he just won his 1st MVP Award. He was also a major player in the WC Finals last year as well. I’d say Luka is beyond that status as well, but a first round playoff exit, isn’t exactly “taking over” now is it ? It’s Deandre Ayton, but I can understand getting a guys name wrong who you probably just heard about for the first time two weeks ago...and yes him & Devin Booker are in the playoffs for the first time in their careers, and have won a single playoff series so far. What’s “The Wolf’s” famous line from Pulp Fiction ?....”let’s not start suc....” eh, Nevermind. And Freak - calling the Suns “average” for years is the best compliment anyone could give them. They were far below average. Sub .500 last year and sub .300 the 4 seasons before that. Last playoff appearance in 2010. Sorry, carry on with amateur hour...

Oh I’m super surprised you still follow the game now that the Raptors one and done Kawhi delivered miracle season is over and they couldn’t crack the the playoffs this year. Tell me again about Siakam? You notice he didn’t make the list? |

Below average makes their story that much neater. I love the energy coming out of Phoenix.
