Ja Morant better win a title in the next 2-3 years. This supporting cast is insane.
This MF Bane shoots 50% from the 3p line on 8 attempts.

Will be brutal watching the finals if we lose Sunday. This year is so open and a repeat would cement this teams legacy. Who knows what happens next year, an optimistic scenario is we bring back the same team albeit declining.

I'm convinced we're the best team in the league with Middleton. We would've stomped Boston in 5 games with Khris. It's so frustrating.

That was a terribly unlucky sequence for the Griz. Get 2 curry misses that bounce high and far right to looney and then another deflection straight to Looney before the klay 3.

They should be able to bring everyone back next year and their roster has a ton of internal development potential between Ja, Jaren, Bane, Clarke, Brooks, etc.

If Ja really is that dude, they probably should win the title next year. I’m honestly a bit lower on Ja than most people, but we’ll see - he’s got room to grow (especially defensively) and he has everything he needs around him.

I would’ve loved to see prime Steve Nash on this team.

I don’t even think it’s debatable honestly. There isn’t a team in the league that can match the Bucks’ size, physicality, toughness, defense, and experience along with shot creation/playmaking when they have all 3 of Giannis/Jrue/Khris.

They are very clearly the best in the league with their full squad. This Boston team was running through EVERYONE for like 4 months now. The fact that the Bucks, down a 21/6/6 3x all star wing, are taking them to a game 7..it’s insane.

Sadly it doesn’t matter and nobody’s gonna feel sorry for us after some of the injury luck we saw last year. I now know how Nets fans last year probably felt lol

I'm rooting for the heat to take out the Celtics.

Maybe phx to go all, the way.

GSW I wouldn't mind rooting, because I'm tired of watching my eyes bleed as 3pt shot clank away.

IT would be so nice to root for a team that could drain 3ptrs in the playoffs. I have no idea what that feels like.

Phoenix saw the Bucks FG% from today and said "hold our beer".

I don't understand how teams like Dallas exist. Making 3 after 3 after 3 like they are layups and nearly nothing else. Nobody is in the paint. All the defenders close out in terror. And Dallas can put 5 more at least as lethal from the bench too.

It's looking like Suns fans will be feeling even worse than us tonight.

Suns were one of the few teams who cared in the regular season so them stinking it up in the 2nd round kinda sucks.

Dallas is playing well but not especially lights out. Phoenix just look gassed.

CP3 looks done. Ready to retire. He probably picked another injury but he is too embarrassed to talk about it.

Booker has one of the usual all star SG nights when nothing goes in for him so he turns out being useless.

Ayton is a foul machine as always.

With Biyombo on the court and with the Suns being so freaked out of the countless Mavs Snipers there is no rim protection at all.

Phoenix isn't even going to make it to 30 points by the half. Unreal.

Luka is so **** awesome. Must be like what non salty ass fans of other teams get to enjoy while watching Giannis.

Luka will be anointed best in the league which will make the off-season more obnoxious. Still don’t understand how two fat slow white guys are dominating the NBA it’s incredible.

Remember when Luka wasn't made for playoff basketball after 2 games this series? :lol:

GSW is going to have a pretty hard time with Luka if the Mavs get through the next 24 minutes.
