Jadaki 1 Posted May 19, 2006 Share Posted May 19, 2006 I have the Clippers winning game 7. DiscussGonna be hard to pull off in Phoenix but I think they are more capable than the Lakers were. I will be pulling for them. Link to post Share on other sites
LAS22 0 Posted May 19, 2006 Share Posted May 19, 2006 I enjoy watching both teams. I just don't think the Clips will be able to pull out the game in Phx. Look for a huge game from Steve Nash. Either way, I am excited that one of these teams will be in the Conf. Finals. Link to post Share on other sites
Azreous 0 Posted May 19, 2006 Share Posted May 19, 2006 13 games in 25 days, and suddenly the Suns get nearly four days off before Game 7.Works for me. Link to post Share on other sites
the red bull 0 Posted May 19, 2006 Author Share Posted May 19, 2006 Incidentally, they are my 2 favorite teams in the NBA.(Clippers are my favorite) Link to post Share on other sites
KONGOS 0 Posted May 19, 2006 Share Posted May 19, 2006 Suns all the way. Link to post Share on other sites
kers2 0 Posted May 20, 2006 Share Posted May 20, 2006 The Clips have been the better team this series. I'm hoping they pull it off. 4 days off is a joke btw Link to post Share on other sites
gilbertology 0 Posted May 22, 2006 Share Posted May 22, 2006 You heard it straight from Gilbert, Suns gonna soundly defeat the Clips like they did to the Lakers in Game 7, or like what happened to the Cavs against the Pistons last night. Phoeniz is the whole team with an overly hypex crowd, Nash FINALLY got some rest, and Phoenix is just much more experienced and knows how to play well in a game of this magnitude. Suns by 13.

sloshr 0 Posted May 22, 2006 Share Posted May 22, 2006 This game could go either way, but I really like the way the Clippers have been playing. The series is tied 3-3, but the Clippers kicked the Suns' *** 3 times, while the Suns won games that were a lot closer, including one where they couldn't miss and scored 130, and another in double overtime after they blew a 19 point lead, only to have the Clippers choke and give it back. Neither of those scenarios will happen tonight, and I am betting on the Clippers. They just have looked like the better team in this series. Link to post Share on other sites
The Czar 0 Posted May 22, 2006 Share Posted May 22, 2006 Nash will show why he is the MVP tonight. Suns advance and cover the spread. (I hope) Link to post Share on other sites
princeof56k 0 Posted May 22, 2006 Share Posted May 22, 2006 I think the Suns will win tonight, but I'm rooting for the Clips. I dont hate the Suns or anything. I just feel bad for the Clipper fans. They need this. Link to post Share on other sites

They need this.That's a good point, and part of the reason I won't be completely broken-hearted if we lose tonight. The Clippers have been long overdue for a run and have played better than the Suns this series, although they've had some critical mental breakdowns down the stretch in all but the two blowouts. Even though they'll get destroyed by the Spurs or Mavs, advancing to the WCFs would mean that much more money to resign Cassell with.Let's face it: We've already more than exceeded expectations for the season, so the Suns are kinda freerolling from this point on. Maybe Kurt Thomas will play a few solid minutes and give them a boost tonight...and in the later rounds. Who knows.EDIT: Or maybe they won't need Thomas at all. What a defensive effort by the Suns tonight; the offense was typical Suns, but they were extremely active on the defensive end, particularly in the third quarter. And now the Amare-and-Kurt-less Phoenix team has to try and run with a tough Dallas team in the WCFs. Should be another great series. Link to post Share on other sites
sinc 0 Posted May 23, 2006 Share Posted May 23, 2006 A great effort by the suns. If Nash gets hot again like he did last year then watch out Dallas. Especially if we can get Kurt back, well really be looking good. Link to post Share on other sites

The Sun's havn't played in a game that tough in the playoffs yet and both thier series have gone 7 games. Link to post Share on other sites

The Sun's havn't played in a game that tough in the playoffs yet and both thier series have gone 7 games.Indeed. It's way too fast to think the Suns will win this series easily (in fact, there's no way I can pick them in anything less than 6). As much as I said before the playoffs about this being the better matchup for the Suns, they still have some problems matching with the Mavs -- specifically who Steve Nash guards. Three weeks ago I would have said Suns in six without hesitation, but I almost think the Mavs will win this series. For the Suns to have a chance, it's critical they steal one of two in Dallas.
