IMO up 5 with 7 seconds left is not literally game over, he was literally standing under the basket undefended, and it was a layup (which is how you avoid showboating), so it wasn’t showboating

Does no one remember the history here? Booker certainly does. A few seasons ago Zion dunked when time should have been run out, the teams went at each other for the disrespect. This is hilariously late revenge and the reason he goes as far as defending and calling for a challenge. You can see him laughing about it.

They were eliminated in that close series (2-2 at one point if I recall) with Zion out, and I remember after the game he explained that he wanted revenge for his guys. Maybe still not the right move but it explains it at least

98onboxing | Suns

3 | 6 hours ago

You’re being a pissed off bitter boi, policing a perceived lack of joy in another teams win, man.

These guys are dawgs, they are competitive, and they were unhappy w the officiating. Zion went to the line more than the Suns did as a team. Their discontent wasn’t isolated to a single game, we’ve been beating teams despite a 10-20+ free throw disparity. Nothing is going to change, but there is satisfaction in holding individuals accountable while you’re face to face. As a fan, I say go ahead and speak your peace to someone who tried their best to beat your team. Usually that would be the opponent, but lately we’ve been playing against the officiating crews in Q4.

If you’ve got league pass, give the fourth quarter a watch. You seem like you’ve got an opinion, but I’m not sure if you’ve watched the game or have any relevant context/awareness. Just a hater talking out his ass because the Pacers aren’t giving you a reason to enjoy the season. I’m happy w my team and yesterdays dub

I know after Luka and Ant demolished Booker in the playoffs his social status fell + he’s declined from his peak (though some good games lately)..

Dudes still a beast of a competitor and funny about it lol.

In that split second since the Pelicans decided to double Booker I think he was in the right to just let Ryan Dunn who struggles to score generally to get that extra 2 for his stats.

Fouling Derik Queen bc he ran to the rim, then talking shit to Queen / Zion is so hilarious.

It’s a shame this rivalry was only for like 2 seasons. Hopefully Pelicans can come back tonight and give us one. I enjoy games being competitive and chippy, refs be damned.

Average Celtics fan who probably thought Tatum deserved MVP in 2024.

[Lowlights] Down 7, with few seconds remaining in regulation, Derik Queen decides to drive to the rim, gets fouled by Devin Booker with 0.4 seconds remaining. Booker wants the Suns to chalenge the call, and eventually Derik Queen misses both free throws and game ends. Dillon Brooks is hyped
