I like reading tweets from the other media.

That literally is one of the most complete games (both ends of the floor) that I have ever seen from a Suns player in the playoffs. The box score doesn’t do what he did on the other end justice.

They played a decrepit Brooklyn team that doesn't play defense. They swept them but all but 1 of those games was close and could have gone either way. I'm not worried about Boston. Miami has looked better, IMO, and is more dangerous than Boston.
You guys talking about potential eastern conference opponents when we haven’t even gotten out of the first round in the west? C’mon man…

No one is forgetting about the Pelicans or any future opponent.

Ok I've got a question. In the first half, we were helping CP bring the ball up, setting screens, giving him outlets. Then in the second half, when he was exhausted, we left him on an island. Can anyone explain this to me? It's really bothering me.

Eddie Johnson said something like players get tired and forget their assignments.

I know the sideline reporter talked about his finger but on that one play late he clearly grabbed his elbow as if in pain. So maybe it's both?

He definitely grabbed his elbow. It is possible for pain to travel to a different location, depending on which nerve ends up sending/ carrying the pain, though. Hamstring pull can travel to the lower back, for example. I am not as up to speed on hand injuries as I am on leg injuries, but logically, it's possible to sprain or break a finger and experience immediate elbow pain.

He also fell on his tailbone few plays earlier, so it's possible that he hit his elbow during that fall, but his entire right side didn't look right the last few minutes. Something was seriously off.
