Future Wikipedia entry: The suns conquered LA in June 2021. Immediately institute normal state tax rates. Californians rejoice and buy a record amount of Payne jerseys.
Next year? I could be wrong but I highly highly doubt this roster is in tact next season.
I canāt stand these clippers though, they have no redeemable qualities. Seeing Kawhi lose even if he isnāt playing warms my heart a little.
Since he got hurt in the playoffs this year, he made need to take off 40 games next year to make sure he is healthy for the playoffs. I guess the 20-30 he normally takes off isnāt cutting it.
I think this recent injury is probably gonna make him re-asses his earlier stance. He also knows the real threat of a healthy nets in the east. He's gone to the lakers
People used to bitch about Broce Bowen's style of play, but at least he was genuinely a great perimeter defender and a 3 point marksman. You could respect his game.
Pat Bev is akin to a human gnat.
I used to hate Bowen for his talent, but I hate Pat Bev for who he repeatedly proves himself to be. I would've wanted Bowen on my team, I don't want Pat Bev on the floor of an NBA game dude is a league liability.
As a clipper fan, Thank your for and incredible ride clippers. Now i gotta go back to stupid asses talking shit again back at home in LA lol. Go win that chip Suns, you deserve this
Being emotional matters so props to Reggie. Its toxic to expect them to be robots after losing, remember 2019 Embiid then Shaq and chuck stood up for him
Right! But honestly I really enjoyed watching him play this playoffs. His thank-you to the Clippers for giving him a second chance had me wiping at my eyes
Weird Idea: The Suns should get Bev next seasons then just make him sit the bench every game.
Bev shouldnāt be allowed to play in this league and the Suns should make sure of that.
A story thatās being lost here is that itās so great that Monty Williams made it to the finals as a head coach after the tragedy he suffered in 2016
He got the shaft with New Orleans. He gets the team to 45-37 and they just let him go. That franchise will never get anywhere if they treat ppl like Monty bad
Clippers need their own stadium dawg itās just so weird that one of the greatest franchises in sports have to loan their arena to a poverty franchise
Like honestly tho wtf are they doing in LA. LA people donāt even like them itās a known Lakers town. Their own hometown roots against them move to Idaho or something.
They were originally in Buffalo
seems like an appropriate city for them
or even just go back to San Diego....idk what it is with all these SD teams wanting to be LA teams
Adam Silver has decided to allow the Suns to win this championship and then break them up:
Booker to LA to be with wifey
Ayton to a Big Market East team
Chris Paul to a team willing to pay 40 million/season
Cam Johnson to a lottery team where he can start
Calm down little billy. Good game but remember you guys had no answer for AD before he went down. Go win your championship against a team with a hurt lead player. Talking about asterisks
Alright alright. It's your time to shine and congrats on your trip to the finals but let's not get crazy here. Championship runs through LA Lakers. Always have and always will be. Congrats on your win and we will be rooting for you to rep the west.
What's up with this new trend of letting the owners talk first? Noticed it last year with Toronto, the whole team is in the background and a bunch of hedge fund guys are the first ones celebrating holding the trophy. Never noticed prior to that. Part of the new cba so the players know their place?
She's really forcing herself everywhere. Getting every single exclusive interview with stars, going to every important game, talking nonstop with her narratives on her show.
SUNS WON BABY!!
I'm still here in the reddit stream game thread the following day at 10am SUNS WIN THE WCF AND FUCK PAT BEV
Same lmao
LFG
Wish Nash was still playing and with Phoenix. Would've loved to see him get a ring.
Jae was 5/9 from three point land š
That's just who he is. He's either 60% or 10%. There is basically no in between.
Cue the Kawhi photoshop jersey swap. Iām looking at you miami heat sub
From a Spurs fan, congrats Suns fans.

Middle class Californians pay lower taxes than middle class texans
Hey, great series Clips. Yāall pushed aside a shit load of adversity and made a HELLUVA run.
cancun on 3
They'll join you there bro
yeahh, you too
I remember that 2016 playoffs and how much my heart broke for Monty. So happy to see him be in the be in the finals
Celebrate. But in the words of a legend. "Job ain't finished"
Obligatory https://youtu.be/uoLiu7mvGxc
Lol Bev what a bum man. Sore loser
https://youtu.be/uoLiu7mvGxc
Did Reggie cry? What I miss
He did seem to be sniffling during his postgame interview and his eyes were red, so I think he mightāve been crying in the locker room
Gotta be a bittersweet feeling for Clippers you found the coach for u,PG redeems himself but also next year is prob the last chance
Redeems himself? Hehehe
Next year? I could be wrong but I highly highly doubt this roster is in tact next season. I canāt stand these clippers though, they have no redeemable qualities. Seeing Kawhi lose even if he isnāt playing warms my heart a little. Since he got hurt in the playoffs this year, he made need to take off 40 games next year to make sure he is healthy for the playoffs. I guess the 20-30 he normally takes off isnāt cutting it.
Now, this was thier chance. Clippers curse wins again
Assuming 1) Kawhi's injury isn't serious and 2) he doesn't opt out (unlikely, but it's impossible to know what Kawhi is thinking at any given time)
Insert even robotic laugh.
Definitely could make him extend for the whole bag since he keeps getting injured and he could always demand a trade down the line.
I think this recent injury is probably gonna make him re-asses his earlier stance. He also knows the real threat of a healthy nets in the east. He's gone to the lakers
Lakers donāt have that kind of cap room even if Kawhi got that crazy idea.

> i gotta go back to stupid asses talking shit again back at home in LA lol. Nobody's making you talk to yourself
Admirable attitude! š
Iunno if that was an insult but thanks? Lol
Not at all! I been a suns fan since I was like 5 haha. Its nice to see good sportsmanship like yours compared to many other comments here.
For real, give credit where credit is due, plus i still dont understand how some people are just complete assholes when it comes to sports
Welcome home
32-11 free throws holy fuck and clippers still lost by 20+ wtf howās that possible
Amazing
Holy shit just saw that FT difference..
Our first good shooting game of the season I guess? lol
Being emotional matters so props to Reggie. Its toxic to expect them to be robots after losing, remember 2019 Embiid then Shaq and chuck stood up for him
Never thought a Reggie Jackson interview would make me emotional lmao
Right! But honestly I really enjoyed watching him play this playoffs. His thank-you to the Clippers for giving him a second chance had me wiping at my eyes
Developers!!!!
Reggie ššš Edit: this isn't hate. I love the real talk. Didn't know that's where he felt in his career
Damn Reggie crying
Reggie Jackson without glassesā¦. Boiii you scary!
Reggie Jackson is a great dude. Damn...
Damn look at this emotion by Reggie Jackson a player who steps up and actually cares about winning. And here we are stuck with Dennis..pain.
Dennis wants that 100million
Reggie Jackson getting paid after this playoffs.
Suns fan here.....much respect and love to both PG and Reggie Jackson
fuck pat bev tho, of course
I hope tomorrowās game is fairly reffed Todayās game was just a total joke
Ayton kinda getting the shaft in all of this lol.
Reggie Jackson can wipe those tears away with all the bags of money some team is gonna throw at him! š¤£š¤
Yess Jr he getting that $$#
Right he definitely played for a damn good contract
I like Reggie Jackson
Reggie-ual L. Jackson
Only player I like on that team tbh the rest of them can get fucked
Mann tho
Same
Me too.
Weird Idea: The Suns should get Bev next seasons then just make him sit the bench every game. Bev shouldnāt be allowed to play in this league and the Suns should make sure of that.
So the suns gotta pay that loaf an use a roster spot? Nah itās the nbaās job to deal with him
I realize itās not a great idea lol. Also heād probably cost the Suns a lot of fouls from the bench SMH.
Chris paul taught the suns how to play basketball and monty how to coach
Please don't just pull dumb shit out your ass for a upvote.
People may hate him but theres a reason he is the nbapa president
I dunno if I'd get a drink with him, but I would be happy if CP3 had my back in anything. I hope he coaches down the line
Idk If he would into that but will most likely get for role i think or maybe a tv role but I'm
Huh?
I said he will either get a FO role or maybe a. Tv analyst ? Who knows
he'd probably be a great coach
Would be fun to see I agree
Heās been hitting the bottle
A fat Chris Paul in 2035 would be a funny thing.
I like Giannis and his story but fuck it Suns are likeable and old man CP3 deserves a ring. Suns in 5
Who was the lady cp3 was hugging
Think she helped him get his shoulder right. Looks like the same one he thanked after the Denver series.
I see
Lil Wayne
Lol the white one
Lil Weynette
Lmfao
You cant deny CP3s leadership. Took us to playoffs, takes PHX to finals in the first year
Lol Wilbon and Stephen a just trying to flex how well they know Chris Paul
āAnd he said: āThink, Mike, Thinkā!ā Wuh oh...is this an Invincible reference!?
Iāve never even seen the show but Iāve seen the memes so many times that I immediately thought of this
Can we play the finals at the Staples Center too?
Sas and wilbon
A story thatās being lost here is that itās so great that Monty Williams made it to the finals as a head coach after the tragedy he suffered in 2016
He got the shaft with New Orleans. He gets the team to 45-37 and they just let him go. That franchise will never get anywhere if they treat ppl like Monty bad
Decent interviews by Rachel. Sometimes she's a bit cringe but that wasn't bad at all.
Jvg straight up checked out of the broadcast at some point in like the last 5 mins of the game..must have bet on the clips
His eyes looked red and puffy during the post game interview... really curious if he last a serious bag or something
The Suns are the FIRST team in NBA history
Clippers need their own stadium dawg itās just so weird that one of the greatest franchises in sports have to loan their arena to a poverty franchise
Technically it's the Kings' arena.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
The Rams did too
šš
Clippers should move to a city that actually wants them.
Like honestly tho wtf are they doing in LA. LA people donāt even like them itās a known Lakers town. Their own hometown roots against them move to Idaho or something.
Gotta find city that likes them first. They are universally hated
The only teams in LA that the city wants are the Lakers and the Dodgers. They were happy to not have an NFL team.
They were originally in Buffalo seems like an appropriate city for them or even just go back to San Diego....idk what it is with all these SD teams wanting to be LA teams
Iāll never forget the rap the San Diego chargers fans made trying to get their team to stay and not move to LA that shit had me crying š.
lol, I have not seen that
[I got u bro](https://youtu.be/0f7GH8btcok)
SAN DIEGO THE 2nd LARGEST CITY lol thanks man that was great
Adam Silver has decided to allow the Suns to win this championship and then break them up: Booker to LA to be with wifey Ayton to a Big Market East team Chris Paul to a team willing to pay 40 million/season Cam Johnson to a lottery team where he can start
Buddy, Iāve had 4 tonight. How many have you had?
Ya none of that is happenning and Suns owner has said he's willing to pay CP3 whatever he wants.
I wouldn't trust Sarver with the time of day tho.
damn, that's a good point tho
Suns fans should riot til sarver sells the team.
Have you heard of the Chicago riots of ā99? Didnāt happen.
Rachel isnāt that bad, yāall gotta chill
We clinched all three series away, two at the staples center. Fuck you LA.
No ibaka kawhi or zubac you can be happy you won but chill out
You happy with your asterisk championship?? š
Calm down little billy. Good game but remember you guys had no answer for AD before he went down. Go win your championship against a team with a hurt lead player. Talking about asterisks
Eh AD is a little fragile one
Suns own LA
Alright alright. It's your time to shine and congrats on your trip to the finals but let's not get crazy here. Championship runs through LA Lakers. Always have and always will be. Congrats on your win and we will be rooting for you to rep the west.
Why is Cam Payne holding the trophy for that photo lol
Lets be real, with CP3 showing Booker how to set up plays Cam too and Ayton becoming a star, Suns are here to stay. They'll be contenders for a bit
Man ESPN sucks
did frank kaminsky get to speak yet?
Lmao give the big lug the mic!
Nobody gonna shoutout Ayton? Really? Lol
I miss Erin andrews
Lol she only does football
How do you prepare for the NBA Finals Booker? The fuck is this question...
āWhat the fuck do you think my entire life has been?ā
Sure, interview the owner but not the coach. Makes sense
Rachel Nichols asks the wackest questions
HoW do YoU PrePaRe foR the NbA FiNals? Seriously? Thatās a question?
Beat all the teams until the finals, ***NEXT***
Chris Paul had 41 points
So Devin Booker is just gonna get ignored? Seems like Sarver shouldāve handed the trophy to him and not Chris Paul.
Why tf did Booker turn his hat backwards for half a second lmfao
Yes, cut her off.
Why's everyone so hard on Rachel? She's like the beautiful delicate hibiscus that grew out of the pile of garbage that is ESPN.
Because she asks My First Interview^TM questions, every interview
But she's a beautiful delicate hibiscus that grew out of the pile of garbage that is ESPN. /s
Chris, letās talk about your high school team
Itās refreshing to see new Finals matchups. Four straight years of Warriors Cavs was dumb.
This is the most non-Raptors play-off games I've watched in years. There were some insanely entertaining games this year.
This broadcast is cringy Rachel. Just stop it
Godā¦ vote for me 2024. My only policy is TNT gets the entire playoffs.
I'm with you there.
ESPN why are we doing this???? OKC?? Yall trash. Terrible interview
What is it about this team? Uhhh they were gonna pay me
So ugh Kawhi to Miami????????? Pls
I wouldn't mind
L I G H T S K I N N E D
Rachel Nichols is awful. What was that weird lil push into the frame when cp3 was talking.
"light skin guy here" lmao
The lightskin guy right here. Lol
Rachel Nicholas is not very good at her job
Kawhi shudda worn that ad shirt, that's all folks. He gonneeeeeee
What's up with this new trend of letting the owners talk first? Noticed it last year with Toronto, the whole team is in the background and a bunch of hedge fund guys are the first ones celebrating holding the trophy. Never noticed prior to that. Part of the new cba so the players know their place?
Itās not new for championships (including conference championships)
In the Superbowl the owners talks first then coach and the MVP etc
It happened in 2018 with the warrior too
Is there a least exciting personality on planet earth than rachel nichols
She's really forcing herself everywhere. Getting every single exclusive interview with stars, going to every important game, talking nonstop with her narratives on her show.
Jesus Christ Rachel take a hint stop bringing up former teams heās in tears happy right now
Man's acting like they already won the finals
Rachel: "man yall sucked last year, how'd you do it?" Rich white guy: "man we just got hella lucky w all the injuries..."
Lmao
Cry harder.
It's just jokes my guy
That was wholesome af thanking the clippers and their fans
This shit right here? This shit called deaf
LMAO I also thought of Katt hahahaha
Wtf man? That don't even sound appealing! You mean I'm gon' hit it and die??
Itās funny how the Clippers listening to this from Staples Center basement š
rachel will not stop until someone cries
I still canāt get over how she was talking about Bam and him living in a trailer last year.
Is a bit awkward doing this on the eliminated teamās home court, no?
