No intensity tonight, just don’t want it bad enough. With Paul coming back we have seem to relax to much like we have it in the bag. Not so fast

Cam Johnson didn't fall down. He was knocked down.

Losing a game in PHX without Paul would have been much .ore acceptable than this garbage.

As if the 3 quick fouls on Booker, the 2nd was bad and the T was bad, wasn't enough. they get a jump ball and the ref tosses it so badly that Johnson can't reach it despite being well above Jackson and then George hits a 3

Embarrassing officiating at the Staples Center? I’m shocked! Shocked!

If the Suns can get close it is still a game.

When Booker isn't shooting right he becomes a big liability on the court.

I'm sure they've mentioned it a couple of times but it always amazes me when announcers seem surprised a guy with a broken nose wearing a mask has a bad shooting game. It's just a totally foreign thing, it's not even the breathing it's just having something on your face you're not used to that bothers you.

I really wonder how Paul can get bumped with no call on screens all thru the game but Booker goes over one screen and it's a foul.

We aren't playing well for sure. But the calls have been mostly atrocious.

The Suns need to make a priority in the off-season of getting a Mahorn/Oakley type big who can get minutes at the 4/5 and they can bring in to put an elbow in the face of guys like Zubac, and knock the bleep out of little punks like Beverley.

The only way the refs are impacting this game is allowing Pat Beverly to mug guys

He's the ultimate playoff ballplayer. He can do whatever he wants in the playoffs and it's "intensity"

The lackluster play is really disappointing. The Suns thought the Clips would roll over like the Nuggets in Game 3.

This is one of the most poorly officiated games I have ever seen. That being said these guys need to get after it the last few minutes of this quarter and rip the damn heart out of their chest!

Both Booker abs CP3 are the reasons for this embarrassment… sucks to say that, but it’s true. They both have seriously stunk it up tonight in every phase of the game.
Honestly, Paul looks extremely out of it and tired. His legs are in quicksand.
