Maybe it’s just me but I have a good feeling about the Suns going all the way and winning it. They’re giving off the same special vibes the 2011 Mavs did. Funny enough they’ll have to beat the Juggernaut Nets. Just like the Mavs did against the Heat.

The Nets are going to destroy them.
Even if KD has a 2011 Bron meltoldown, the Nets supporting cast is still light years better than 2011 Miami.

Jizzo, the difference is the Mavs were basically all veterans. Playing in an NBA Finals had no affect on their nerves or mentality. Dirk, Terry, and Kidd had Finals experience. Marion, Peja, Chandler etc had long careers full of big games.

I'm not convinced the young Suns players will have the same poise, should they reach the biggest stage.

THis is also a key difference. Lebron had no help and got sabotaged by Wade. That wont happen with the Nets.

edit: Actually I could see Kyrie sabotaging tbh.

I just want to see a full series of Paul v. Rondo. Can the Clips get it done over Utah?

Suns are actually giving me 2020 Heat vibes. Replace Butler with Paul, Dragic with Booker and Bam with Ayton

I see that. And supporting players playing out of their minds.

And of course, Crowder.

They don't have anybody remotely as good as Dirk.

The Jet clowned Lebron as Crowder did Lebron. Seems familiar.

They don't have enough to beat the Nets, who are historically stacked.

So keen to see a Jazz V Suns WCF....

Awesome seeing these genuine teams going at it and getting some success

Clippers were never gonna win this, took them everything they had to beat Luka and Co....
Despite what Uncle Dennis's employees post on here, Kawhi ain't carrying shit.

Seeing today's jazz jersey/short combo on their webstore I'd probably think they look shit.

But far out, seeing that gear with how they did the fan t-shirts today looked fvcking awesome...add to that the whole playoff atmosphere and it was just great to see.

Mods, can you change my name to Mitchell m8?

Just kidding...

Nah. If anything Suns look a lot more like 2011 Thunder. Although OKC didn't have a veteran like CP.
But they're young and don't have a lot of playoff experience like that Thunder. Mavs were a bunch of seasoned veterans without a chip taking their last dance.
Suns have a lot more years in the future. Even CP will probably play 2 or 3 more seasons

Nope. What made the mavs special is that they had a 7 footer that turned into larry bird. Dirk was unguardable. When they swept the lakers i knew Dirk was on a mission. Heat still should of won that finals though...im not gonna put it all on bron but that team had 3 hall of famers in their prime and dirk just destroyed them

Gotta hope Philly makes it out of the East because then no matter who makes the finals in the West it is an even pick with Philly and any of the series would be good vs them.
