I’m just hopeful that everyone remains healthy throughout this run. It’ll be interesting to see how the guard and center rotation plays out now that everyone is back. I trust Doc to make the right moves.

They put so much work and time in to get to that point, so it’s mentally draining when your body fails you at the most important time.

I remember being in the 6th grade back in 2006 and we got that 4-1 first round win over Denver. Crazy that series is the closest thing to a sweep we’ve gotten considering it was 14 years ago!

Hoping Westbrook comes back 100% healthy. This is such a unique year in the bubble playoffs. The champion will be truly deserving and I would love to see everyone at full strength battling on an every other day basis. If you’re ever going to get a first series sweep. This is the year!

I think it speaks to the depth and star power of this team, but also the lack of season-ending injuries, which was certainly a key part of this strategy.

True testament to our depth and I’d venture to say ultimate proof that the team is better than the Lakers, despite regular season records.

Ultimately would’ve preferred watching a healthy, young Suns team battle the Lakers for round one, but ultimately the Clippers own series vs Dallas is the only thing that matters. Glad we’re almost fully healthy (get well soon, P. bev!) Looking forward to tomorrow!
