Wow just wow. Is this the most surprising nba playoffs ever? Or at the very least in a long while.

Agreed, but it’s still not something I can recall witnessing

In hindsight, their best perimeter playmaker being Seth Curry should’ve been a big warning sign.

Tony Allen at least showed fight and like he cared. Simmons seems like he's going through the motions. Pure speculation on my part but I'll read the body language to guide me to that conclusion

To be fair a lot of the “full strength” teams still lost to teams missing their big name players.
Before you go all-in on a sweep, let me just remind you that the Bucks are coached by this guy:

In fairness, he had to come from behind twice to lose this one: that's something different.

The Jazz got to full strength for game six and still lost to a Kawhi-less Clippers. The Blazers were at full strength when they got knocked out by the Jamal-less Nuggets. The Jazz were missing Conley and Donovan had a bum ankle for most of the winning series against the Grizzlies.

What have we learned from the playoff successes this year that the Kings may want to consider when making our upcoming draft pick? It appears having a defensive minded #2 is tough sledding when you get to the modern day playoffs. If you are of the belief that Fox is at least a one or two and Haliburton is a number three, do we need to be trying to get a high scoring player preferably who can hit the long ball?

I'll give you the Blazers and Grizzlies. Clippers had momentum already shifting after the series tied at 2-2
**** the Process! *clap* *clap* *clap-clap-clap*

Fair enough. I agree that the Jazz lost that series more than the Clippers won it.

Ouch, why would he say that? Jeez
Works for me. At this point I think Trae and Booker have proved all they need to prove in my books. Anything more is a bonus.
Relax man Trae Young was rotating he’s an elite rim protector
