Those three guys all put up all-time individual seasons. I couldn't complain about any of them winning.

However the whining if Giannis had won would have been ridiculous, and the chest-beating if Embiid won similar so this is probably the best outcome for the sanity of the wider NBA :D

Monty COY. I'm fine with that. It was a classy thing when he went into the Bucks locker room to congratulate the team after game 6.

It’s funny but I don’t think you’ll ever see Bucks fans complaining it should be Bud. His approval rating amongst Bucks fans still not great.

If BOS or GS advances to the Finals, do you think the national media will endlessly talk about how Middleton/Ja missed games? Didn't think so.

Great look for JJJ with Draymond on him. Dumb Bane foul is costly though.

Was that not a flop by Curry?

It was but Bane pushed him in the back too

Memphis didn't have a star to rely on at the end and idk what they drew up but that was awful.

It's just insane though how good they are playing without Morant or with him being absolutly terrible in some games.
Congratz to their coach and front office on building this cast full of lethal 3p shooters, great defenders and mentally strong guys.

That flop might be Curry's most clutch playoff moment
Bucks tricked me into being a diehard in 2001, LeBron is the 2nd best player ever, and pizza is awesome.

I probably would have voted for the Memphis coach. I don't think many people picked them to be 2nd in the west (and 2nd overall).

I'm really disappointed with how the Giannis movie turned out...

Gonna be a bit Magic J here, but two really interesting game 5s today. Interesting to see how Miami and the Suns bounce back.

As soon as Ja was drafted I compared him to Rose....I really hope his career doesn't end the same way.

He is such an exciting player to watch.
