He completely disrupted the Suns with steals, blocks, rebounds or poking the ball away. He didn't score much and he didn't need to. Unbelievable defensive performance.

Hard to imagine defense even exists in the NBA any more. The three point game has ruined the sport.He completely disrupted the Suns with steals, blocks, rebounds or poking the ball away. He didn't score much and he didn't need to. Unbelievable defensive performance.
Agreed. He certainly appears to have reinvented himself after being traded from the Lakers.He completely disrupted the Suns with steals, blocks, rebounds or poking the ball away. He didn't score much and he didn't need to. Unbelievable defensive performance.
I didn't get to see that game. Shocked they beat the Suns.He completely disrupted the Suns with steals, blocks, rebounds or poking the ball away. He didn't score much and he didn't need to. Unbelievable defensive performance.
Durant was good he had like 28 points. Westbrook seemed like he was all over the court disrupting play after play. I'm not surprised the Suns lost game 1, they haven't played as a unit that long and had a few days off, they looked rusty.I didn't get to see that game. Shocked they beat the Suns.
And I don't think Milwaukee is going to win it all now. Even with Gianni healthy. I feel like it's someone else's turn this year. Could be Boston, Philly, Suns or one of the young teams out east.
As long as the Lakers don't win it all. That's the one thing I DON'T want happening. LOL.
I remember a couple years ago when Milwaukee won it all they lost the 1st game of every round. Or that's the way I remember it. So I'm not too worried that they won't get past Miami. But who knows. It sure doesn't hurt as bad knowing Gianni already has a championship. Of course you want the 2nd one because it proves the first wasn't a fluke and 2 puts you in an entirely different category.
What happened to Durant? Poor Chris Paul. LOL

I wonder how many times in Chris Paul's career he thought "we got to win a championship this year", but it didn't happen.I would love it if Westbrook eliminated KD.
KD is a very different guy than Kyree, but his age and injuries are the question. Chris Paul is still the key to the Suns going deep into the playoffs. Ayton is only average without Paul feeding him. They got to get the chemistry right quick or they will be one and done.The Suns were almost undefeated in games Durant played in during the regular season. But who did they play? Now they're playing a really good team. I hope the Suns experiment falls apart like the Dallas experiment with Kyrie Irving. You need to play together for awhile in order to learn how to play together. It's just not right that Kevin is so good he instantly improves your chances on the court. Glad to see other teams have a solution. He's not as young as he used to be.
Westbrook has something to prove. But one thing he hasn't proved is that he still has it when it comes to scoring. WTF? I would laugh every time he missed an easy shot on the Lakers. Seemed to be all the time. But now I'm hoping he comes out of it and helps Leonard get to the next round, where Paul George will be back.
Hopefully they are healthy next year. Westbrook, Leonard and GeorgeHe completely disrupted the Suns with steals, blocks, rebounds or poking the ball away. He didn't score much and he didn't need to. Unbelievable defensive performance.
I'm not a Lebron fan but he amazes me what he is doing at 38 years old and 20 years in the league. As much as I am a Jordan fan, Lebron has well exceeded him by now as GOAT imo. AD is the only guy I see that can match up with Jokic. If James and Davis stay healthy they could beat Denver.Hopefully they are healthy next year. Westbrook, Leonard and George
There are a lot of great young new players. They should take over as Lebron, Harden, Westbrook, Curry get older.
But it's cool Curry and Lebron both knocked out younger teams that thought this was there year. NOPE. Try again next year.
Will Denver beat the Warriors/Lakers? They should. And I believe now Denver is going to win it all. The Celtics aren't that great.

Look at the multiple championships with multiple teams, all time scoring leader. MJ was the GOAT but Lebron has earned that title imo.Um, no. I can never agree with that take, and I speak as a LBJ and Lakers fan. Michael Jordan is the best player to play the game.

Clearly a matter of opinion, since MJ has more rings and was undefeated in finals play.All-time scoring leader? MJ retired twice. His career spanned from 1985 to 2001 - with 1994 and most of 1995, and then most of 1999 and 2000 off. MJ played in an era of hand-checking and hard-fouling. Don't get me wrong: LeBron James is right up there in the conversation of the top players, but MJ is better.
