yo mad respect to bro for going on and shedding some light on this game. that’s a brutal elimination game that can fuck players up mentally for years afterward. Big props to him man for real
Mavs fan here. I love Mikal as a player and a defender but for him to come on the show and talk about this stuff with Theo who you just wanted to punch in the face throughout the series. It takes a special person to do that. Mikal What a class act. Big respect
I was looking forward to this one. It’s always interesting to hear from the opposing side. Speaking honestly, and even Mikal says he’s a realist, the majority of the Suns were not ready for a game 7. He said he knows what game 7s are like but there’s no way of really knowing it until you experience one. From the moment Phoenix went up 3-2 in the series I told my friend who’s a Phoenix fan, “You guys better win in 6 because you won’t win game 7.” Luka and the MAJORITY of the Mavs were in a game 7 against Kawhi, PG, and the Clippers the year before. They already had that experience and they played like it. I honestly believe that if the Suns had the same Game 7 experience as the Mavs, it would’ve been down to the wire but as it stood, Mavs had a psychological advantage from the get-go and tuned everything else out while the Suns folded under the pressure due to their inexperience. And, unfortunately, the one who would’ve been able to bring knowledge and experience to his team, Chris Paul, had been 0-6 in game 7s at that point so he was probably feeling even more pressure than everyone else and couldn’t take it either.
This guy on the suns is the X factor the second he leaves or gets traded the suns are done. Every team has that certain player that they just need! Celtics and Marcus smart. Memphis and Desmond bane. Etc
or not being able to handle full court pressure. or shoot 3s. I got a lot of love for Paul but Kidd new exactly how to defend that team. They needed Bridges, Johnson and Ayton to step up and none of them could. Also the series Crowder became irrelevant
Don’t sleep on Theo y’all. Spencer Dinwiddie has spoke highly of Theo, just give it time. He’s going to be a problem defender against other players. He’s like Draymond 2.0 lol He will get in your head.
Regarding the bench. Basically they can't be as rowdy as they were. They can't stand all the time. They can't stand along the baseline. Stiffer fines for improper bench decorum. Theo Pinson was specifically named in the issue.
Mikal the most mature player on his Suns team, because CP3 and Booker pouted the entire time and probably still are pouting plus those two were the ones talking the most shit.
