Official Let's Go BUCKS!!! NBA Finals thread

[reignman40]

Feels like just a couple weeks ago I was on a major high with the Jazz winning 6 straight and going up 2-0 on the Clippers.... Playoffs go by so fast

So happy Chris Paul got this close and lost.

Had his title stolen by Bobby ****ing Portis

Sadly this is more of an example of "the best player wins" than the small market having hope.

It's so hard to win in the NBA if you dont have the most dominant player with size.

But it also shows the joy of winning a homegrown title… hopefully it resonates with Don and Rudy.

Booker stunk tonight. A better game from him and this might be going back to PHX.

 

[LoPo]

But I would argue that Lebron had more help. And the Warriors best defender was not playing. Giannis cemented his legacy. Awesome to see.

Draymond missed 1 game. Give me a break.

LeBron had more help? Whatever. I would take Middleton over Kyrie 10 out 10. I don't think Love averaged 10ppg that series.

Middleton, Jrue and Lopez are better than Kyrie, Love and Tristan.

And LeBron beat a much better team. Cmon man.

Kyrie is way better than Middleton, cmon.

Gotta love Giannis.

Well Booker is an ***, so stinking suits him.

I had gotten over our complete second round collapse to some degree. Tonight hurts in a completely different way.

He was kinda due. He had just gone 42, then 40 in back to back games.

Honestly, Phoenix blew this series in Game 4. They should've been up 3-1.

Booker had the **** beaten out of him all series by Holiday.

How so? The jazz weren't going to beat the bucks

I actually think the Jazz had every chance against the Bucks.

Happy for Giannis. Giannis’s story is what a sports story is supposed to be. I think this was my favorite comment from him after the game tonight:



The city of Milwaukee got to watch Giannis grow from this



To this



Good job Giannis. You did it the right way, you’re everything good about the league, and you deserve this moment so much.

 

[LoPo]

Kyrie is way better than Middleton, cmon.

In my opinion, Middleton is the most underrated player in the NBA.

And it just so happens, I think Kyrie is the most overrated player in the NBA.

The Bucks teams get carried by Giannis so ****ing much it's insane. Holiday/Middleton are capable of making big time plays so they can just ride Giannis coattails til the end then if they show up at the end they get praised.

Yeah, Middleton’s 25/6/5 and great defense is really riding coattails.

 

[Keefe]

I do think the Jazz matchup insanely well with the Bucks. I think they beat them in 6 games in a Finals matchup if healthy. Jrue's elite D wouldn't be as impactful on a team with more playmaking options. Against the Suns you only have to shutdown two playmakers. Against Utah you got 4.

We have four playmakers? Lmfao.

 

[Keefe]

Giannis has a chance to go down as the greatest player ever.

 

[LoPo]

Yeah, Middleton’s 25/6/5 and great defense is really riding coattails.

Middleton is criminally underrated.

The last 4 seasons, he has averaged over 20ppg, 5rpg and 4apg during the regular season and raises those averages in the postseason. And he plays good defense. Takes the big shots down the stretch. He keeps getting better. Giannis isn't Giannis without Khris. Giannis said that last night.

 

[LoPo]

Giannis has a chance to go down as the greatest player ever.

He has a long, long, long way to go, but he could end up on Mount Rushmore of the NBA.

For me, Kareem, MJ and LBJ are the top three. The 4th spot is an intriguing conversation of Russell vs Wilt. I think Giannis could take that 4th spot if he has another good 10 years or 7-8 elite years.

Funny how people still blame Quin when both coaches in the finals tonight played a total of 17 players including 2min for Teague and 1 min for Craig.

Yeah guys like Ersan/Doke/Morgan/Brantley will definitely get major minutes and played bigger roles had they been coached by championship caliber coaches like Budenholzer or Monty Williams. **** Quin.

I blame injuries more than I blame quin.
I do think quin should have tried at least one adjustment. And it didn't need to be a rotational adjustment either.
