The Suns got solar eclipsed
They got solar eclipsed by Anthony Edwards.
Lol, I see what u did there. Maybe it was a sign that not Suns year
@@caivue3314lol 😂 a warning of impending doom
booker has to demand a trade
Changed the whole team to lose worst than before great job guys.
“We got Jaden mcdaniels” never been more apt
Got destroyed today..wasnt him winning
@@xavierb9061 doesn’t matter, he was insane the whole series and had book in jail
@@xavierb9061he was getting ticky tack fouls all game
@@bpina2170not mentioning bookers 21 free throws huh? Would have been another blowout without them
@@bpina2170McDaniels averaged like 4.71 fouls per game.
Suns didn't underperform. Ppl just been sleeping on how elite the Wolves are all year.
I keep saying this. They're team can win it all this year.
I think people have been noting for the Suns all year on their weakness. They lack all sense of depth as well as their 4Q has been shocking. Wolves i think got their respect given they were largely riding the #1 seed all year. Should be a good second round to see how far this team can go though!
@@Joefdgtr Wolves were riding #1 seed all year, but the mainstream media largely paid way too much attention to big names like LeBron, KD, Curry, etc. That generation of basketball is on its way out, but their names still bring in the money and views. Overall we are in a transition period and people aren't really aware of where the talent truly is yet. They're learning pretty quick, though, now. Wolves, being a low market team, and a team with a poor history so people just aren't used to having the Wolves on their radar yet... so they don't get the coverage they deserve. Their games weren't on National TV as much as they should have been, the most popular talking heads on Yt and mainstream media didn't really watch them or talk about them much.
@@Joefdgtr Another thing is: Wolves finished 1 game behind top seed in the West *without a prime KAT for much of the year* (he was out with an injury). He's back now and Wolves are full force, meaning, they're more elite than people realize. When you can finish that good of a record even while missing a prime top player like that, and you get that prime top player back? And he's a perfect fit for the team? That's crazy... especially combined with how little people are informed about this team, I think they're underrated despite the fact people know they were riding #1 seed all year.
Suns beat the Wolves every game this year in the regular season so yes they did underperform
Ayton and Monty Williams laughing at the Suns getting swept
Co3 too
One's career is dying in Portland, the other coached the worst team in the NBA this year. Laughing? More like a smirk. Maybe a brief chuckle
@@toolegit7668 and they both getting paid. Max contract for Ayton and one of the biggest coaching bags for Monty. So yeah, as long as they getting paid, they're laughing at this.
@@brandontaylor7129 Ok and everyone on the Suns are getting paid too. What's your point? Monty Williams and DeAndre Ayton are both in far worse positions basketball wise. It's not quite Steph and them laughing at KD in 2022 bruh
@@toolegit7668The Pistons, Trail Blazers, and Suns have the same number of wins in the playoffs 😂😂😂😂
Bradley Beal has the worst contract in the nba and it has a no trade clause
Not anymore he doesn’t, he gave it up as part of the Suns trade…but I don’t disagree with your argument about his contract…
@SephCondor unfortunately that's not true. Bradley Beal is still the only player in the NBA with a no trade clause.
Bradley has no trade clause. He may have the worst contract but for him, he's happy. Haha
That’s not how that works. He has not signed a new contract. He still has a no-trade clause. He waived the clause exclusively for the trade.
He told them he was ANT. 😅😂
Brunson is at an insane level offensively right now. The only players at his level are Luka/Jokic/SGA who are all MVP candidates. Its incredible to see his development in the Knicks
Ant isn't at SGA/Brunson's level? Man, that's news lol.
@@CodemanAmericathey all up there i like brunson after AE tho he’s nice
Ant will crush um
@@anggr4549Edwards probably gonna crush Brunson.
Knicks went up 3-1 over the 76ers. Mavs lost today. Pacers went up 3-1 over the Bucks. And the Buns got swept.😂 What a great day and night of Playoff Basketball.
Sweep 🧹
Lol 😂 y'all calling em the buns ? 😂 haha
We wanted clips to lose tho
It won’t truly be a great night until lebron LOSES. LeBum needs to retire! He’s overrated and a top 50 player at best, he’s ruining basketball! Y’all bought into media hype, he wouldn’t last a day in the 90s
@@LanceNoir stay off the weed bro
Before the suns and wolves series started i had said the Wolves in 6. Well they swept and i am content with that ! haha. Good stuff.
these guys had so much to say about lebron possibly getting swept, but durant just skates
Durant doesn’t call himself king, goat, the best ever … etc….
@@TheRealMichaelPSo what your saying is there are no expectations for Kevin Durant
Both them niccas getting this work kd more so then bron because of age
@@sholovesholove4620 so what your saying is you can not read?
It's coz lepoor attitude. And kd when asked, whatchu think about that dx chop Kd said, if you win donwhatever you want
Doc doing everything he can to not get fired in that press conference
Lol, yep or a goodbye tour
Not his fault
What can he do without his 2 star players dude....
The whole Eastern conference is happy if he stays in Milwaukee 😅
@@r3r3drum02well for that its almost impossible.
The huddle audio where Lue speaks "it's all about toughness, mentally and phsically" and then looks at Harden 🤣
He won them the game tonight
@@udithsethu552 ...with help from the Lue speech. It was lowkey asking him to step-up and not coast.
These young guns in the League are out for blood! No respecter of persons!
My dude Embiid was getting blocked by guards lol
A beautiful sunset 🌇
Same goes to the beautiful sunset in Boston.
I’m happy for KD and the buns 🧹. Wonder what team KD will demand a trade to while he’s in Cancun.
Warriors
Think he will run it back one more time
Spurs
Bro going right to Minnesota
@@H8MOTHY lol... dont do him like that!
Minnesota Timberwolves showed Denver Nuggets how to finish a series the right way 😅
LAkers better than the suns though
Seems like Lil B's curse is still in full effect 🧹🧹🧹🧹
Yep. That curse from Lil B has been in full effect since 2020.
Forget Phoenix Nets, they’re about to become the Phoenix Wizards
It's reminiscent of the situation in Brooklyn and the fact what they gave up to construct this team and have no first and second picks for many years, yeah it could potentially end in a Wizard situation.
Doc River at 1-3 LMAOOOOOO THIS IS TOO FUNNY. DUDE STAYS ON 3-1 or 1-3
its called the dco rivers effect 😂
Ant is a wolverine among the wolves.
"Dnt worry Dallas its not you its HIM!" Tht was tough! Lol
That last dunk by Ant was just them throwing in the towel , cause aint no way KD guarding Rudy at the 3😂😂 Also shows you cant win with jus 2 prolific scorers ..
We're a veteran squad... we're used to losing 😂😂😂😂 (Harden)
Tomorrow all the Bandwagon GS fans will be Minnesota fans now.
Harden took advantage of Luka having 5 fouls already with 5 or minutes left in the fourth! well played - and PG made an insane clutch shot!
SUNS ran into a buzz saw
KD to the Lakers next season?
Brunson has already outplayed his contract. Getting him for that price is probably one of the smartest moves I’ve seen. If Brunson signs with Dallas they would be favorites to win it all. Period!
Ant-Man looking real Kobe-esque out there in this series.
16:10 ! nah he aint do em like that!? lol
The mavs need to fire who ever let Brunson go
They had to let him go because sadly they wasn’t going to pay that contract he wanted while paying kyrie and Luka. Besides Brunson needed his own team to really shine and it shows
The Mavs did he fired himself mark cuban 😂
@@toomuchkulture5003 Brunson is better than Kyrie and is less as a distraction off the court. The Mavs needed to keep him instead of trying to sign Kyrie.
To think that the Suns refused to trade Ayton to the Pacers for Myles
😂
They gotta fire their GM asap
And the Lakers wouldn't give up the 27/29 1st round picks for Turner and Hield. Pacers fan here...I'm grateful!!!
@@johnnybookernot the same situation trading 27/29 picks at that time would put the lakers in the position that the suns are in no draft picks for half a decade, the suns not trading ayton for turner is just stupid turner fits the suns more than any other center in the nba he’s literally exactly what they needed out of their center
lol that’s weird.
Let's go, Wolves!! Time to sweep the Nuggets next!!
Thats going be tough series not going lie
I wanna know how many of you guys are happy where the NBA os going right now? KD, LeBron, and Steph there era is coming to an end one by one. Are you guys excited moving forward to see new blood and possibly new teams win NBA championship?
👏🏽💯
Absolutely. The media is going to keep all this new talent in the shadow of the greats of the past but consuming basketball isn't all about that. I'm enjoying what I'm seeing here and I'm optimistic for the future.
yes I'm happy especially considering some of the "new blood" is on my team (Anthony Edwards) but I don't want to disrespect any of the old goats at all
Lebron era continues. Lakers about to dominate the Timberwolves in the second round
Congrats 👏 to the Timberwolves NEW OWNERS. SAY NO TO - GLEN the 🐍 TAYLOR
GS really saved KD, he’s ringless without those years in GS.
KD also saved mj because the warriors do not beat those cavs teams without KD
Harden man! It don’t get no better, this is real basketball
Championship team build from the draft, play together as team not just buy superstar players and hope it will work out. Usually super team will never work in year one cause there's no chemistry and playing no defense, everyone want the ball and score only. Sun didn't learn from the Nets. Good luck Sun with those three players contract.
Doc is about to blame Dame and Giannis for being SOFT
Who in the fkn nba hires doc unless they TRYING to lose
I enjoyed that movie "breathe" the knicks vs phili was so a timing thing.
Honestly Pacers would’ve beat them with dame and Giannis playing so let em rest till next season
second round playoffs is going to be lit
Great Series Win by the Timberwolves! The difference between the Lakers Winning and Suns Losing is the Role players for the Lakers did great! Beal played terrible (For A Star Player)! Reaves is averaging the same amount of points as a role player!
Beal will get paid $180 million more dollars 😂😂😂 Beal is a GREAT FRAUD.
He got kirk cousins agent? 😂
KD request to be sent to Wolves next year
Anthony Edwards is a SUPERSTAR and is a top 5 player in the NBA lets go Wolves 🐺🔥
He sure is!!!
What happened to Phoenix?
17:05 still wondering why the first row seats are in their face during so intense basketball games.
Glen rivers sound like he trying to keep his head coach job 😂
Good job Doc!
People can't still believe Tatum is better than Ant right? Like its clear who the best American player is now right?
Yeah its still Tatum one playoff series doenst change that
@@baseupp12tatum not better bro
@@CoreyCobain How isn't he Tatum averages more points, rebounds and shot a better percentage this year and averages less turnovers, they have virtually the same assists, blocks and steals.
@@baseupp12 Throw all of that regular season out the window... in the 2024 playoffs Ant 31 PPG and Tatum 24.3 PPG.
@@tkuebler9561 again one playoff series dude, you dont say a player is better off of one series, if you did then Jalen Bronson is better than Joel Embiid
Broo Windy be winking hella😭😭
It's over for KD 😂😂
Forgot they was playing at 76ers stadium lol 😂 the crowd was cheering for Bronson and even some 76ers fans lol. Dude was looking great out there
I fw Brunson. Not even a Knicks fan but I want this guy to win.
Unlike PHX who got annihilated in every way, LAL actually have an edge. Could easily be at minimum 2-2 if not 3-1 LAL. And JM is icing up! DEN better win g5 or it’s going 7 all momo LAL. And I’m not just pulling BS out a hat. We saw they’ve led 75% of the minutes. DEN won g1/2/3 from crashing the boards and with help from LAL lack of discipline. If LAL remain discipline and protect the boards, they’re going to win g5 and they’ll go 7.
Haha lakers fans are pathetic.
He's arrived.
JB next 🆙 but he’s already arrived now he’s just a Dawggg😤💙🧡
man whoever wrote that zubin knicks segment missed multiple boats from the timing to matched visuals to not a word on OG lol to rebounding from og and hart to deuce, to to 5 fouls on ihart in 3rd, to 5 on hart etc.. Who wrote it? Tobias Harris?
The Mavs in Game 4 made an epic comeback from 31 PTS DOWN against the Clippers! Seems like Doncic and Irving since 2nd Quarter to final quarter went on another level, even though Clippers eventually won by 5, 116-111.
Kd ran from that posterization
😂😂😂
That should be worse than getting posterized imo 😂
Doc knows that he is out from this team after this series 😂
Im glad KD got bounced out early. Kyrie turn next 😈 the Nets curse is in full effect
Harden and kyrie on opposite teams u rtrded?
@@originofdavid idgaf about Harden. Just KD n Kyrie. Harden wasn't on the team long enough. Oh btw SMD
Kd got swept in first round don't ever compare him to lebron
No one does.
@@aswinnayak8147 Stephen a clown Smith did amd skip Bayless did there was a time the media was calling him the best player in the world
@SifuSeagal just like yo baby mama michael jordan getting swept in the first round
Kevin Durant is a better player than lebron, lebron is a stat padder, overrated I can’t wait till he retires you bronsexuals don’t know anything about basketball Kevin Durant has a winning record against lebron in the finals
Yeah! Don't compare him to Lebron...WHO GOT SWEPT LAST YEAR.
Brian Windhorst, I agree with everything you said man... I would try and see what I can get for KD for a good bench and surround new talent around Kevin Booker.
No way Joel Embiid called sixer fans trash
He sure did he may need a new fan base the way he's doing this playoffs
I say it again James Harden will change his Palyoff legacy for positive without Kawhi! Let's go BEARD!!!
Should the Clippers even take Kawhi back in game 5? Maybe they are better off without him at this point
Way to go Jalen!💪🏾🏀
CP3 and Ayton probably laughing together in Cancun right now
The Suns performed as expected. People haven't been paying attention to how good the Wolves are this year.
KD calling Curry from the back of the bus😂😂😂.
The Suns in the regular season. KD: We've got the Wolves numer. Edwards: Sike, that's the wrong number!!!! OOOOOOHHH!!!!
A N T. M A N.
That Rudy Gobert trade looks more promising now and not the fleece job Danny Ainge did….. MANNNNN bump that…. He still fleeced them 😂😂😂😂😂
Let’s have a party there’s a full moon in the sky. It’s the hour of the wolves and I don’t wanna die.
That was a lucky win for the Clips
76ers fans let their team down. Don’t feel sorry for none of yall
A very good game
Minnesota Timberwolves played a good series 👏🏾 KD in my opinion, is washed up! 😴
Nah KD can still ball, but cannot lead a team to a championship. GSW run will always be a shadow for him as he cannot win anywhere else.
never been a winner. he got rings because he got carried by gsw
@@4matic81 Good take.. Kd can definitely improve as a leader.
KD washed with 33/9/5/0/4 blocks lol sure pal.
@Kostly 2 supers teams, and that's all he can do 🤣🤣 he's washed up!
Tell Embiid to buy the city of Philly tickets if he wants more fans there😂
Kawhi being out so much and then trying to step in for the playoffs was messing up Clipper's cohesiveness. Everyone else stepped back when he was on the court, and it hurt their offense. Ant and Kat are only just starting to flow with Kat returning from injury. It is going to be an exciting series with the Nuggets. It wont be easy but the Wolves are built to beat the Nuggets.
Yes sir Go wolves
Is AE American???
So basically we just gonna ignore the fact that KD got swept huh, if only it was Bron l would what the headlines would be saying
Keep putting kd in yall top 10 if y’all want 😂
The clippers should never struggle to score 😂😂im sorry it’s too many scorers over there
Doc Rivers doing his best to pretend he enjoys coaching the Bucks right now 😂
Turner DEVOURED Lopez
List of multiple time All Stars that Joel Embiid in a playoff series the same year they were an All Star: - Pascal Siakam - Bradley Beal Never made an ECF. Consistently fails in the 4th Q of playoff games. Has to be one of the most disappointing MVP careers ever.
kd who
Man, the help was so late on those Harden drives towards the end of the 4th quarter. Those were easy shots for him.
Dawg KD really the first one to get eliminated in all of the first rd in both conferences lmaoo what a clown
Wolves back!!!
About to be eliminated by the nuggets
@@matthewwilliams4168sure bro 😂
@@desotohybrid2175Murray and jokic are about to cook
Lmfao. Yeah. Can't close the series playing against the worst team in the playoffs and are one call away from being 2-2. Wolves are going to bulldoze the Nuggets out of the way. You're talking like a fan that is scared and you should be.
@@matthewwilliams4168 “blah blah” bro came to an argument with 0 facts. 🤫🤫🤫
i wish pat bev was still on this team, get his revenge vs KD when he was on the clippers with lou will
Luka looking like a pilon late in that 4th Q
Edwards looks like MJ in terms of physically and silhouette. Once he starts hitting that turnaround fade away more consistently his game will look like MJ’s too
Any baptized kd 😂
