But the story changed in the 2nd half especially in the 3rd quarter where the Lakers had a huge run.
CP3 only played 27 minutes and his contribution is not really enough to help the team to at least compete at a high level.
Seems like they are really frustrated as they can't break the defense of the Lakers.
it end up a low scoring game and when with that, it's always a Lakers game.
Yeah, I watched the whole game. He suddenly misses those short-range shots which are his favorites and you can see him reacting to his shoulders after.
Then, he missed a free throw (93 percent in FT line) and shake his shoulder again.
That's all signs that it is getting stiff again and he cannot continue to play anymore so they sat him down.
Suns badly need a leader, someone who can calm them down whenever they made a lot of errors and it did happen. Ayton unable to catch a lot of pass and they are just losing the ball most of the time.
It's a sad reality and this is Booker's first playoffs game and he can't shoulder it all.
Later, Hawks will be at home against Knicks. I'll bet for overtime.
