I didn't see it tonight but I'm now interested in the series. I saw the Hawks twice against the Sixers. They are fun and Nate getting a ring would be coolTheKobeStopper said:I did not think Atlanta was for real, I thought Bucks rather easily, say, 4 or 5?
We need a Hawks-Suns Finals. Booker and Trae are ready to be superstars. Ayton is fun, CP3 gets his shot, Huerter is fulla grit and the Bucks and Clippers just aren’t fun.
I heard several guys today say the Hawks don't belong -

The brighter the lights the better Trae Young game gets. And even when He DOESN’T score big, #myhawks can still get it done. They’re pieced well. And they may be the best defensive team left as well.
I was kinda wondering if Trae was this years version of Jamal Murray.
I don’t think He is. -
I’m not ready to go there with the defense. I think Ben Simmons and whatever the fuck is wrong with the Bucks has made them look better than they are. Remember, the Bucks made the Nets defense look good. But I’ve also been wrong about the ATL so far.Kaepsknee said:The brighter the lights the better Trae Young game gets.

In today’s NBA, good team defense is moar often defined by whether an opponent hit their 3’s or not. And Atl plays good 3 defense when it counts. At least their last 2 games.TheKobeStopper said:

Atlanta is a team of destiny to make the finals. Bucks are only in the ECF thanks to injuries.

Skip Bayless joined this. Not sure if good or badTheKobeStopper said:
But to @BleachedAnusDawg 's point, Trae is a better finisher at this point. Deadly late -
Ice Trae

Take away a couple of long runs and we played great defense tweet of the day
Take away his weakness and he got no weakness -
he's a good basketball guard that cant shoot the ball.RaceBannon said:Take away a couple of long runs and we played great defense tweet of the day

OK!
scottie have CTE? -
It’s about time we put some respect on Ayton’s name.

Well the Hawks and Young had a nice little run but it looks like Giannis is ready to take the throne and win it all.
Storyline for next season is can King James retake the throne or has his time come and gone.
Phoenix does not impress me and the Clippers are the Clippers. By default the Bucks have this one -

I think Suns vs Bucks would be refreshing. It isn't a matchup you want to see in the Finals very often but considering over the last 15 years the finals has only been about the Lakers, Spurs, Golden State, and Lebron it will be exciting to have something brand new. There would still be a lot of good stories too. CP3 journeyman finally paying off, Booker and Ayton starting their ring collection early, Giannis turning his regular season dominance into a title.
I think the Suns are going to come out on top. With how well their young talent is playing it finally feels like destiny for CP3. -
When did Pippen become a crackhead?RaceBannon said: -
It will also be interesting if Chris Paul blows it in the final minutes of a finals game.CuntWaffle said:I think Suns vs Bucks would be refreshing.

I've watched the last two Phoenix games. Saturday set basketball back 30 years
I like Booker.
But I've accepted a position on the Fear the Deer wagon
