Goodness - I haven’t thought about this situation, which seemingly was so close to being done (according to this very board), in YEARS. How much that may have changed things!

Surely we would have gotten over the line in 2010 if we actually went for CP3 instead of Vince. (Sorry Mauro)

Haha, I don’t doubt it.

I’d bring Dwight and CP3 to Orlando next season just for the humor

Very dark humor and depressing

But hilarious at the same time.

I do really wonder how long CP3 is going to keep up this elite level of play. I am so impressed how vital he seems the last two years

A playoff series that generates a lot of reactions....

Giannis made one of the best defensive plays I've legitimately ever seen last night. Unreal.

the suns have the better constructed team, but if paul keeps playing this bad and bridges does not step up on offense, they will lose against a really tough minded bucks team, who seem to be wanting it more at this point

on the other hand, giannis is the real ironman

CP3 is not suddenly bad or in a slump, he only has pesky Holiday on him. Jrue stats could be MEH sometimes, but what he adds to the team is not only measured by that.

A season ago a lot of people was surprised by the price paid by the Bucks for getting him, and was expectin an even larger package for Vuc... clearly the league and FO's has a different vision, one of those two players has incredible stats, All-Star appareances, but isn't going to make you win important games. The other one does.

Agree about holiday's defense, it's impressive

on the other hand, some of cp3 to's weren't even because of his defense. he just slipped or passed to no one. really awful game for a supposedly hof. if he keeps this slump going, he may lose the most important series of his life all by himself

It’s hard to believe that CP3’s hand/wrist injury isn’t significantly worse than the Suns are letting on. He’s straight up forgotten how to dribble after have one of the best assist:turnover ratios in playoff history. If he doesn’t get right, the Suns have no chance
