he dominated since he came to the league...his team is weak...Utah have Gobert/Mitchell/Clarkson and a great roster...PHX have Booker/Paul/Ayton...GSW Curry/Klay/Green/Wiggins/Poole...Dallas second best couldn't make first team in those teams..

I reckon the story is more on why Suns lost after leading 2-0 then 3-2 and a Game 7 at home. Was Paul injured? He was completely different from Game 1 n 2. The problem now is that Suns reached it ceiling of making the Finals and having the 1st seed but still lose.

No wonder he destroyed the clippers I knew this men was unstoppable doing that to elite the only guy he didn’t want to go at was kawhi but couldn’t nothing cause of the screen Paul George beaverly Morris batum looked like luka kids until game 6 kawhi somehow figure away to stop luka even with screens he literally shut luka down by himself next luka dropped 46 only scoring on kawhi once the entire series luka I think is going to end up being top 3 all time

Europeans like luka, when they drive to the basket, they dont have their eye on their team mate. they have their eye on the guys playing defense... you dont have to watch your teammates because you obviously practice with each other thus you would obviously know where your team mates are. your focused awareness is on where the defense is, how they are aligned and how they are responding to your attacks - this will make you a better decision maker. you can start to see gaps and lanes... this kind of awareness is something europeans learn when they start playing football(soccer)... in soccer most of the time you pass to spaces(forward pass) alot.

They’re building around Booker. He’s an amazing SG, but isn’t that good as a playmaker, especially against double teams, meaning it loops back to a 6-foot 37 year old PG with injury issues, or the backup PG.

This is basically how you ruin your team if you are a suns fan. 1) Don't resign Ayton to a team friendly deal then go ahead and offer him max in the summer 2) Paying a player like Ayton max should have traded him early 3) Paying Bridges 20+ mil a year a great defender yes an ok shooter and a 0 shot creator sorry a 10 ppg 3 and d wing is not a 20 mil + player (UNLESS CAN SHOOT LIKE KLAY) You got close to 50 mil locked into 2 players that on a championship team would be 3rd and 4th options at best Can't win like that. CP3 done in tops 2 years and you won't have cap space to replace him with anything close to his talent. Suns championship window done.
