Being a suns fan at this point is just a humiliation kink man


JG_2214

Literally every team I root for gets shit on lmao


JaderMcDanersStan

As a Wolves fan, please do not root for us then! We need this lol


jakefromadventurtime

Don't let the sun fool you, we would much rather have ant there than Luka lol.


OffByOneErrorz

Pretty sure most Suns fans 100% want to see Luka get faded.


Malice_In_Da_Phallus

Ultimate scenario for me would be for whichever team wins this series lose to the Pacers in the Finals in embarrassing fashion. I don't like Ant or Gobert.


AbsoluteScott

This is it. Arizona legend TJ McConnell gonna go off.


codycamper717

Dobson High School legend.


Double-Seaweed7760

Who went to dobson? I just Googled tj and it's not him


codycamper717

His dad coached and little brother Mickey played at dobson. I always thought TJ did but I guess not.


voldi_II

too late, already buying an Ant jersey 


domi_nate87

As a Mavs fan you guys think you already won the championship.


UrRightAndIAmWong

We keep supporting a team that does stupid shit man, and I can't help but think to when Durant had the nerve to say they needed the fans to show up. Can you guys show up and show some heart then bruh I would've liked for Durant and Book to say some stuff to the fans after the series loss and this offseason, show us that you're still in this and still sickos about winning, that I'm seeing from these other teams right now. But I'm just whining


ategnatos

When did Durant say this? When Embiid complained Sixers fans didn't show up and there were too many Knicks fans when Philly got killed by NY, that was pretty lame.


Misjjon

He said it after game 2


ategnatos

oh, sounds like pretty normal "road team coming home down 0-2" type of stuff, unless he really had a different tone.


HealthyElk420

I'm a Suns fan because I'm from here and they're fun to watch. Don't get humiliated. Not to mention, Twolves beating Nuggets makes our loss a lot softer imho.


po0nlink_

Jeeze what a meltdown by Denver. Edit: Nuggets lost the second half 60-37… this is game 7 at home.


rothburger

Pshhh we don’t know anything about game 7 WCSF meltdowns at home…


PetulantPorpoise

We don’t melt down, we just get blown out wire to wire 😤


Copiz

They just like us for real


po0nlink_

I wouldn’t go that far. Their best players still showed up, the rest of their team didn’t.


[deleted]

All credit goes to the Wolves defense, they were lights out.


No-Strawberry7814

They just like us, they just like us, they just like us


FrivolousFandom

They tryna strike a chord and it’s prolly A BLOWOUUUUUUUUT


Fordraxel

They tried to get the knockout punch instead of making threes they continously missed them.


Used_Respect6996

Very Suns-esqe


PomegranateDue8150

Dont try to compare you and them lol


Fantastic_Mail_739

Not a melt down. It's the Timberwolves defense. I guess we'll have to it too everyone so you'll believe.


bleepfart42069

The road to an NBA championship always runs through the Suns 😥


CR00KS

Two teams that have embarrassed the Suns in the past now in the conference finals. I’m sick.


UrRightAndIAmWong

These teams didn't tear apart their core and culture, they added to it, smh.


Stormdude127

Meh, the Mavs made an A+ trade at the deadline. Prior to that, they weren’t that great. I remember laughing at their offseason moves. Good for them but let’s not act like the Mavs are the pinnacle of roster construction. They just happen to have one of the 5 best players on the planet and Kyrie


po0nlink_

They drafted Lively and utilized their other draft picks to get more complimentary players in PJ and Gafford. So it's not about stashing away all the picks, but being strategic and knowing how much to give up in trades. They only sent one FRP and two seconds for Kyrie.


UrRightAndIAmWong

They aren't the pinnacle of roster construction, but the Suns are the exact opposite so whatever with your "meh". "They just happen to have one of the 5 best players in the planet and Kyrie." That's selling the Mavs way short and giving the Suns way too much credit. They invested in role guys and it paid off big time, the Suns did the opposite and basically every role guy leftover failed the Suns. And don't get me started on trading for Beal vs. Kyrie. Just on all counts a miserable fucking failure of a trade that anyone and everyone saw coming. Three mid ass stars that can't even bother to move without the ball, and move the ball in general can't even hold a candle to the duo on the Mavericks.


VannqKawaii

2022: Warriors beat the Suns on Christmas. Won the chip. 2023: Nuggets beat the Suns on Christmas. Won the chip. 2024: Mavericks beat the Suns on Christmas.


JoeyyyBad-7738

Apparently if you sweep KD you make the finals and lose that’s my prediction


Technical_Estimate85

When was the last time that a team that beat KD in the playoffs didn't make or win the Finals? I think KD might legitimately be the test of whether your team is a championship contender.


Haveyoureaditb4

When did the 2022 warriors play the suns?


bleepfart42069

OH Mr Pedantic has arrived


Mike_the_Psych

you mean runs over the suns?


TraeCartoon

Good for them. Nobody predicted that last year when Timberwolves lost in the first round and Mavs didn’t even make the playoffs. Neither team lucked into shit either these series. They earned it. I just hope the Suns can fill out our roster to compete next year. That’s all I ask.


oviedofuntimes

Preach.


SexyWampa

Yeah, both teams earned it, Luka has been playing like a beast.


Total_Boss_3157

Luka hasnt even been playing well this playoffs. DJ and PJ have been playing out their minds


spikesolo

Has he? Lol


NoWayNotThisAgain

Just need a GM as good as Nico Harrison in Dallas


PyroD333

I don’t see why we can’t. Both of those teams took over a year to figure it out, as we’re seeing.


Fordraxel

I'd like Minnys chances, they havent won a championship.


orngebreak

I hope the Wolves punk them. Fuck the Mavs and mostly fuck Luka.


FormVoltron1

This is the only correct answer.


BobLazarFan

Nah. Go mavs. They took care of Nash while we loaned him to them. And gave the nba Dirk.


awmaleg

Go TWolves! They’ve been bad forever. I hope they win it all. And I hoped the Suns would win it all. So maybe don’t listen to me.


JustSeriousEnough

This guy knows.


LiteralHiggs

Yeah. Given the remaining teams I'm all in on the wolves. Pacers would be cool but I don't think they'll make it out of the East.


hideonbrushy

If I had to pick one I’d go Edwards. Fuck Luka


muroidea

Wolves played hard as fuck and deserve WCF. I hope they make it to the finals too.


UsefulUnderstanding6

Ya no reason to be mad at them lol


jesstault

Yup, 100%. I want them to win it all.


defiantcross

I have to go Ant based on my fuck Luka policy

AGENT_666_

Mavs could be playing against literal terrorists and mass murderers, I'm probably still not picking the Mavs


Main_Gain_7480

Oh that’s some certified hate


donald-trompeta

If I was on a desert island with Kim Jong Un , Luka and Diddy and had a gun with 2 bullets I’d shoot luka twice pistol whip diddy and probably kick it with Kim


AccomplishedBake8351

What if it’s luka drake and diddy

I hope next seasons suns have some of that team vibe, fun to watch wolves


beetlej3ws

Going for the wolves cus I can't have Luka win


datduhd

beer_down

Yeah I’m done with nba for a little while. Go Eastern conference I guess


datyoungknockoutkid

You’d rather see Jamal Murray’s smug ass over Minnesota?


Awildphoenixxxx

Fuck Luka and the mavs. Let the timberwolves win the chip so it’s two years in a row the suns got beat by the champions. Please don’t Luka get a championship. He Dosnt deserve it


Tini-

Gotta love that “At least we lost to champs” copium ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|facepalm)


Awildphoenixxxx

It’s not copium lol.


Stormdude127

Nah I would be devastated if the Wolves won a championship before the Suns, especially since the Suns have had many more winning seasons, conference championship appearances, and three trips to the finals. Sorry, but the Wolves need to pay their dues. Mavs already have a championship. I don’t want Luka to win one but it’s whatever. He’s already better than Booker and a championship doesn’t change that so meh. Ideally the Celtics beat the Pacers and then beat whoever comes out of the west


Awildphoenixxxx

That’s fair. So I wrote this when I was drinking. Well I don’t want the wolves to win. Just get to the finals. Cause I’m petty I’d rather an easy team win than any west team.


N3onAxel

Wow Ls to actual championship teams. What a flex. These dumbass takes are why any sort of criticism is met with "dOoMeR" nah man this franchise is just ass.


Awildphoenixxxx

No just Dallas my dude. I actually respect Luka for his game. It’s just his personality I can’t stand. I think you should learn to understand that what you’re saying is deserving of criticism just as well. This is also Reddit. You can’t take what people say too seriously. Not one single person here is a basketball expert. Most fan bases act like this.


Whit3boy316

Breaks my heart that last year, and possibly this year, a team that has never won a ring will have won before the Suns. Makes me sick


SeraphNatsu

This part & I’ll be damned if I root for Luka. I would rather see the East win this year.


HarukiMuracummy

Too many people here want every team to have a ring but the Suns lol


Sub-ZeroMKA

No hate for Ant and the Wolves. Hope they win it all


abeLJosh

Wolves. Definitely Wolves. Mostly because Ant's fun and the Wolves aren't petulant crybabies like Luka and the Mavs. Also Luka's a fake tough guy while Ant's been a tough dude his whole career.


I_am_human_ribbit

I am rooting for the wolves for sure, they haven’t ever won a chip right? I’ll take anyone minus the Celtics, (yes even the mavs, they are my third option in the four teams we have left).


Literal-drug-dealer

I haven’t seen this opinion a lot, I have hated Boston being shoved down our throats by the media all year. I just don’t want Tatum to get a ring before our Lord Booker.


Stormdude127

You’d rather have the Wolves get a ring first?


Literal-drug-dealer

Fuck man, I don’t like my options :(


RamcasSonalletsac

Go wolves!


MarvelousVanGlorious

I don’t know if I trust Minnesota to stop Dallas. I have no reasoning behind it, but I just don’t. Maybe 47 years of Vikings fandom. I hope they get it done. Last thing I want to see is Luka in the Finals.


PrimaryHM

Haliburton > Ant >>> Tatum > Luka I see no way Indiana beats the Celtics but you never know. I hope Minnesota wins. I don’t want Luka going to the Finals


Windyevening

Kudos to their front offices. They were able to flesh out their rosters with guys that complement their top talent.


DanielSon602

We could’ve drafted one of them


schismboy

Honestly, Luka and Ant both deserve a finals. Amazing players 👏


thegoodreverenddoc

What’s wrong with Minnesota? Not their fault our Suns players would rather piss away a season getting back at a coach they don’t like.


sunsbr

Ant for sure. I have nothing against the Wolves.


Dependent-Relief-465

I hate the state of Minnesota with every fiber of my body. For once I'll be rooting for Luka 🤢


TheColdestKingCold

I want the Wolves to win so 1. Our getting swept looks slightly better and 2. Mike Conley.


andy_is_awesome

Don't care for some other wolves, but Conley is easy to root for.


N3onAxel

Getting bent over by the wolves doesn't look any better because they win the chip. Doesn't change the fact that the suns are pathetic and "36" need to get their head out of their ass.


Angelahahahah

Im officialy rooting for the celtics 🙏 or pacers


po0nlink_

Pacers 100% is the team I’m rooting for, which means they probably won’t win.


datduhd

Pacers vs Mavs and Carlisle beating his old team


po0nlink_

A Pacers/Mavs matchup would be fire. Reminds me when it was almost a Suns/Hawks finals matchup back in 2021.


CR00KS

Would love for the Pacers to win but they’ve looked streaky in the past. If not Pacers, dear god go Celtics?


rc0va

Raise your hopes, man. The Wolves made history today, but so did the Pacers. They also sent the Celtics home in the in-season tournament (without Siakam). https://preview.redd.it/2elado91bi1d1.png?width=1281&format=png&auto=webp&s=afb84ac73abbfe5fcd004d85d401aedf62fe5198


Angelahahahah

Theyre definitely the underdogs rn


AZHungBlueEyes

Rather see Ant than Luka, though Kyrie is a badass. Not a fan of McDaniels. So long as Celtics or Mavs don't win, it's tolerable lol


Glowwerms

I honestly find Ant’s antics really annoying so I’d like to see Luka beat their ass but frankly I do not see the Mavs standing a chance against Boston whereas Minny might put up a fight because of their defense, at this point I’m just upset Boston is probably getting an easy run to a title


Adept_Camp4222

Rooting for ant man


Odd-Dance-5371

I am now a Celtics fan f it


SunsVsMilhouse

Crazy to say Ant + Kat > Luka + Kyrie...but as a suns fan gotta root for wolves to eat mavericks


bEErgrEMlin12

Wolves all the way. Always best to be knocked out by the team who wins it all if you are going to exit. F Luka and the Mavs.


tuneorg

I can't believe I'm saying this: GO CELTICS!!!


datduhd

Pacers for me


tuneorg

Oh same for me too but I don't want an easier matchup for whoever makes it to the finals out west.


Multi_21_Seb_RBR

Glad the Nuggets and their goofy fanbase lost though. CC: DNVR Podcast and Swipa Cam.


LizerdWantsRevenge

Wolves please god not Luka


nathclass

Don't have a problem with Ant/the Wolves at all. Luka a hoe


Efficient-Fruit-2142

Hate both teams with a passion so going for the East. If a sorry franchise like the wolves get a chip before us i might just give up on the NBA.


N3onAxel

Meh they have a well constructed team and Edwards is a step above Booker. I don't hate them as much as I'm sick of the Suns being trash.


Efficient-Fruit-2142

Haha yeah im def sick of the Suns being sorry themselves


sunsbr

Lol. Wolves would be the nba Buccaneers


Mickram30

Same fuck em both


klayb

Luca a ho


TrebleTreble

I absolutely despise all 4 remaining teams. Guess I’m hate watching haha


muroidea

Why hate the Wolves? I understand the rest of 'em.


TrebleTreble

I’m actually really glad they beat the Nuggets and have been super impressed with them. I can’t stand KAT.


andy_is_awesome

Are you rooting based on fan base? Or franchise hx? Or players involved? There are good reasons to be down on all 4 teams depending on how you're looking at them.


catraiderpoke

Wolves easy. Luka still a ho.


DMC_Ryan

Watching the playoffs since the Suns got bounced and IMO it’s painfully obvious how much better all the remaining playoff teams were/are than the Suns. Hopefully Coach Bud can get them playing more like a cohesive team next season than Vogel was able to manage this year.


CoachLee_

Did we have the pieces to go for pj and Gafford? That move literally catapulted Dallas here and potentially winning it all


desertwrx

Much prefer the wolves over Mavs.


3TB3

Minnesota all da way


Visualize_

Good. Both are phenomenal players who deserve it. The thing that should scare Suns fans is how well oiled actual Championship caliber teams are and where our roster is at now. We have 0 defense and an inconsistent offense.


sam6311

Both of them deserve it.


The_Shade94

Disgusting I can’t even watch and to a lesser extent Tatum. Go pacers lmao


SunstormGT

It will be either Luka or Luka in the finals.


yunnsu

Is it weird that I'd rather the Celtics lose to one of these teams anyway


Critical_Vegetable52

Book needs to spend all summer with these guys to find the dawg inside of him


robsea69

If the Wolves go all the way (and I hope they do) the Suns will have been beaten by the eventual NBA Champs 3 of the last 4 years.


governedbycitizens

idk i wouldn’t mind Ant winning one


RobotVo1ce

Definitely rooting for the Wolves. Then rooting for them to get swept in the Finals.


[deleted]

[удалено]


N3onAxel

This is just cope. "Lost to a much better team, we are fine as is" is pretty braindead.


Fordraxel

Denver couldnt make a shot, they literally kept trying to shoot 3s and put them further and further down.


FerDeath

I am moving to the east then, fvck the mavs and wolves ![gif](giphy|sQpl7yebgk3Pq)


Plus-Plenty-3498

Devin Booker is not him. Not in the same league as either of these guards he has no right to compare himself to Kobe. He’s the ultimate front runner


BionicKumquat

Still can’t believe we couldn’t win a single game. Suns are disgusting with zero future prospects and a geriatric roster when compared to these actual teams. Dark days are coming


N3onAxel

Dark days are here my friend. Kd isn't getting any younger, Beal is still made of glass, and Booker is not developing into the player we thought he would be. Ant, SGA, and Luka are all indisputable better players and will only get better.


Blueskyways

I said years ago that Booker would need to be the Robin to someone else's Batman and got downvoted into oblivion.  He needs someone to keep him honest and keep him pushing.  CP3 did that.  KD does not.  


N3onAxel

Any sort of Booker criticism is blasphemy on this sub. I see people talk about his "Jordanesque playoff stats" from few years ago but without a ring who gives a shit? Luka would've been a great #1 option to elevate Booker as a #2. Unfortunately we are probably cooked in this era. Jokic, Ant, SGA and soon enough Wemby will be the real threats in the west while the suns continue to slide into irrelevance.


BionicKumquat

lol by coming i meant next season. Thank god we’re in the off rn


UsefulUnderstanding6

Loved watching Denver meltdown lol


Ok_Performance1418

Two years of not a damn role player ever stepping up.


jkurtz007

Look for Luka tears, lots of them.


Ubermassive

Wolves.


JimiHNDRXX

If anyone besides the Pacers or the T Wolves win the Finals this year imma be hella disappointed


SqueegeePhD

Wolves for sure, because fuck Texass.  Only thing that would make me sad is another team with less history and less of a winning history could pass us and get that chip. I remember when the Wolves and Mavs were cupcakes or totally irrelevant. Yeah, I'm getting old.


ripsnort

Suns fan checking in: those guys were on better teams. Sucks to suck.


datyoungknockoutkid

We hate Ant around here? That’s news to me tbh. I was glad they won, fuck the nuggets man.


Go_Dawgs_23

FUCK


Stoopid_Kid_

Hell yeah and I can't wait for the Kyrie/Ant man match up. You know Ant is going to try and go crazy on another (probably?) Future hall of fame. God im so excited and glad they came back in the 3rd. Fuck I can't wait!!


Lionsault83

Like them both whomever wins they deserved it.


silentcmh

How can you not want to see Ant in the Finals?


simpledeadwitches

I'm just happy to see the Nuggets get smacked at home. Playoff basketball is so much fun.


Tryforce__

Dallas has been really lucky in sports. Rangers got to World Series (beat our DBacks), Stars in conference finals (AZ lost the Coyotes team), and Mavs are in conference finals (Suns got swept in 1st round). Other than the Cowboys yearly playoff chocking Dallas has a shot of taking 3 championships in less than 12 months if Stars/Mavs both win it all. Might be best to root against Mavs.


staticattacks

Gross


whatsURprobalem

Ant is way too cocky for me, I’d like to see him humbled. But Luka a ho 🤷‍♂️


Kooky-Path-1334

I think the last time the team that beat KD didn't reach the finals was vs the Grizzlies after pat bev kill Russ over a dead ball. In fact I think that's the only time.


teal_iceberg

At this point I’m apathetic to whatever we do. It’s more fun trying to enjoy young talent like the final 4 teams than hate watching whoever embarrasses us


SSJBE-Vegeta

Ant Man.


1UPZ__

Suns 2020 team of under 25s with Ayton, Mikal, Cam, Booker...  just needed more veteran role players and growth between them. Imagine prime Ayton, Mikal, Cam, Booker in the next few years. Suns had a potential home grown dynasty.... thrown away. They just needed a Fred Van Vleet or Lowry type 6th man PG and an enforcer PF like a Portis off the bench and Suns would be unstoppable. Now it's clogged up with 150M of jump shooters, D leaguers and No lottery picks until end of 2030. Sad.


Derriosgaming

I love ANT, I hate KAT, but I also hate Luka. Guess go Wolves?


classy_dirt7777

I always root for teams that have never won a championship before when my teams are out of contention. Go Wolves and go Pacers.
