Will Deandre Ayton or Luka Doncic make the Suns good right away?
After winning Tuesday's NBA draft lottery, how quickly can the Phoenix Sunsreturn to the playoffs?
Phoenix hasn't reached the postseason since losing to the L.A. Lakers in the 2010 Western Conference finals. Since trading Goran Dragic and Isaiah Thomasat the 2015 trade deadline, the Suns have averaged nearly 60 losses over the past three seasons.
The Boston Celtics have a 2-0 series lead after another big win over the Cleveland Cavaliers on Tuesday. Marcus Smart, Jaylen Brown and Al Horford were more than enough to beat LeBron James and ... well, the rest of the Cavs’ roster.
Late in January, when Kyrie Irving, Marcus Smart, and Shane Larkin were all out with injuries, Celtics head coach Brad Stevens told Terry Rozier he was likely to get the start that night against the Knicks. Truth be told, there were no other options, but Rozier was still skeptical that his time had come.
The Celtics were running away with the game in the fourth quarter and Smart found Al Horford for a lob pass while rolling to the rim. Smith was behind the play and there was nothing he could have done to legally stop Horford from scoring on alley-oop. So he shoved Horford from behind with two hands, sending Boston’s All-Star big man sliding well past the stanchion.
The Cleveland Cavaliers will play two more games this season against the Boston Celtics, and you shouldn’t watch them. Boycott the Cavaliers. Americans have boycotted much less interesting things for much dumber reasons. At this point, this Cleveland team has done nothing in this Eastern Conference Finals series to deserve fans in seats, at bars, or even with remotes on their recliner, no matter how much it’s just background noise.
Durant delivers a monster 37 point game and Klay follows up with 28 to help the Warriors win Game One of the Western Conference Finals.
The hype and mania that has been brewing over this matchup since the middle of the regular season finally came to a boil tonight.
This year’s Houston Rockets have accomplished so much. They led the NBA with 65 wins, which was also a franchise record. They have the likely MVP, and they brought him his best co-star since he arrived in Houston. They virtually tied with the Golden State Warriors for the best offense in the league, and sported the sixth-best defense, too. By the way, they beat those Warriors two of the three times in the regular season.
The Boston Celtics — missing two all-stars — have made it back to the NBA’s Eastern Conference Finals.
The Celtics getting this far without those two all-stars puts an asterisk on the team, and by extension puts an asterisk on any team that beats them to make the NBA Finals. Like, say, LeBron James’ Cleveland Cavaliers, should that happen.
