Asterisk?

I mean jeez... Do you guys forget how close we were to playing the Lakers in the first round if the refs didn't screw the Warriors?

And we got to play against the Clippers twice without Kawhi, and lost both?

We've got no room to be playing the asterisk game. That is garbage. The Suns deserve to be where they are at.
Where did I imply that the Suns don't deserve to be where they are? They play very well but also got very lucky with multiple opponents injuries. And it's frustrating that we screwed the similar chance. I would be happy if we won championship even that way.
And yes, it should be "asterisk" in place of "asterix", my bad, not native speaker and too many comics lol

Teams playing the team in front of them and winning doesn't deserve an asterisk. Not like they could have sent over some of their medical staff to get AD or Murray or Kawhi healthy.

I feel pretty strongly that if Donovan and Conley had been healthy we'd have faced them and I'm not sure at all who would have come out of that series. But if it was the Jazz I think this would have been a championship year for us.

Even if Giannis is healthy, the only thing the Bucks have going for them is their size in this series IMO (and the way Ayton is playing, that might be even'd out a little bit).

Monty vs Bud is a complete coaching mismatch. I see Phoenix winning this in 5 or 6 regardless of Giannis' health.
Agreed.

We were injured against the clippers though

Still, I agree, no asterisk

Jrue Holiday really turned into a glorified Bledsoe this year.
