While the Suns won Game 1 as they shot over 40% on threes, they struggled from beyond the arc in Game 2 as they made just six of 26 threes (23.1%). If their shooting gets back on track (they have shot 37.5% on threes this postseason), they should win as Paul and Booker’s midrange game and Ayton’s advantage in the post will give them too much firepower for the shorthanded Clippers without Leonard.

Will they start Marc-Andre Fleury, the goalie that has carried them throughout the season and playoffs but struggled in the last two starts, or will they turn to back up Robin Lehner who played well in his last start but is saving .877 percent of shots while allowing 3.9 goals per game.

Gallinari’s shotmaking, Collins’s hustle plays, and Capela’s screen-setting, rebounding, and defense were all big reasons why the Hawks are in the conference finals. Gallinari will have a tougher time against the Bucks’ defense, but more importantly, playing him will be challenging for the Hawks defensively. The Hawks would have to pick their poison with either Gallinari or Collins on Middleton or forcing Young to guard Holiday.

The Clippers have outrebounded the Mavericks in each of the last four games by an average of more than six boards per game. The Mavericks have been fortunate to win two of those games

Wednesday night was the worst LA Lakers performance of the series with the Phoenix Suns and arguably one of their worst of the entire season. They shot at under 35% from the field and from downtown and turned the ball over a staggering 16 times, compared to the Suns' four. Their starting backcourt, Dennis Schroder and Kentavious Caldwell-Pope, scored zero points and had only three assists between them from 41 minutes played. Caldwell-Pope left the game early with a knee contusion and is currently a doubt to play in game six. The only LA Lakers player that left with any modicum of respect from his performance was LeBron James, who finished on 24 points on 9-19 shooting from the field. I don't expect the Lakers to be this bad tonight, if AD plays that's an added bonus.

Moreover, the Islanders must figure out who their starting goaltender will be for the playoff run with Semyon Varlamov being the established veteran but the 25-year-old Ilya Sorokin playing better than him with a .934 save percentage and allowing only 2.3 goals per game, contrasting Varlamov's .912 save percentage and 3.1 goals allowed per game.

Basically, game one featured things that don't usually happen. Expect game two to be more in line with what we're used to seeing. Poor defense and better perimeter shooting from the Clippers.
