Hawks smell blood in the water. It was amazing how sound they played on both sides of the ball without Young.
I thought Cam Reddish was in the G league or somethin’. Crazy how a borderline East team, during the Reg Season, can throw 9 or 10 different guys out there that can contribute.
Nate is the coach of the year. -

Atlanta has 4 white guys who see minutes. -

Reddish was hurt until a couple of games ago. He sucks tho. He has talent but is inconsistent and has shot horrible percentages since his one year at Duke.Kaepsknee said:Hawks smell blood in the water. It was amazing how sound they played on both sides of the ball without Young.

A lot of teams have guys at the end of the bench that are just as good as a couple of players in the rotation. -
Series.
Championship teams do these kinds of things, including dunking on Pat Bev, one of the biggest tools in the league. -

The 1993 Suns don't count as a Finals team

The Suns knocked out the defending champion Warriors before losing to Boston
Then the Blazers won
Suns and Sonics played an epic WCF in 79
No one cared
Basketball was better in the 70s than it gets credit for -
I didn’t like CP for most of his career. He’s a flopper and a whiner but he’s grown on me the last few years. And he just dropped 31 in the second half of a close out game on the road. That’s what you want to see great players do.
-
They were up by like 20 in the 3rd and Booker only had 18 points at the time.
There's a chance they could roll whoever comes out of the East. -
Truth. It wasn’t until the 2nd Bullets Sonics series that the all of the Finals games were available on live TV.RaceBannon said:The Suns knocked out the defending champion Warriors before losing to Boston

As you get older you like guys you didn't like when they get older. I could have pulled for KD by now.
I did enjoy watching Mickelson win the PGA and I never rooted for him
Still on the sidelines with Paul -
After Paul came back in this series the analytics guys were all on the hot take bandwagon that CP3 was screwing the Suns up by playing slower, he had a -17 plus/minus, put in Payne, blah blah blah. Then he goes for 41 to close out the series.
PM to the analytics guys - FUCK OFF. -
Bucks in 7
With or without the two time MVP
Finally saw Middleton play like a superstar
-
Suns in 6.
Some less basketball savvy fans will think Middleton made some sort of leap but this is who he’s always been. Capable of random great games but not good enough to do it consistently. -
Nice bait I'll bite
The reason I said "finally" is because of my savy awareness that 81% of the time that I watch the Bucks, which isn't that often the announcers will be saying "an off night for MIddleton. You don't see that very often"
And yet I do
But he was big the last two games while Young was being a pussy. Jrue was big and Lopez brooks no bullshit
Bucks win Paul chokes again -
I'll take the Suns. Bunch of their young guys get paid after this and they never get back here, but like the Seahawks, their fans always think they will because of what Booker did. Bucks don't have a pure shooter that can match him.
-
I got the Suns in 6. CP3 is playing his best ball ever. Booker will step back up. The Bucks have nothing for Ayton. Giannis will be 3/4 speed at best. Suns will need big contributions from Bridges and the Bucks will need Portis to stay hot.
Middleton is gonna get his. Holiday will give CP3 and Booker hell as well as Tucker. It’s just not gonna be enough imo. -

Game 1
NOC -
Suns didn’t shoot well but made them from the stripe and suffocated the Bucks sans Middleton. The Suns got big contributions from their bench. The Bucks had little. CP3 owned the stage. Again.
-
Crowder isn’t going 0 for 8 every game
PHX in 6. -
Suns have a very good roster. Bench is very good, good shooting, and Ayton is playing well.Kaepsknee said:Suns didn’t shoot well but made them from the stripe and suffocated the Bucks sans Middleton. The Suns got big contributions from their bench. The Bucks had little. CP3 owned the stage. Again.

Fair? I think so
At 30 million a year he should be shooting 8 hours a day
Then again he gets 30 million a year and can't shoot -
Lonzo's J was just janky. He dropped buckets with relative regularity. He's cleaned that shit up and can knock it down consistently now.
Simmons is just fucking lazy. $30 Million lazy but lazy AF.
