Bucks would've repeated in 22 if not for a slippery United Center floor in Chicago.

Celtics can thank that moment & Kevin Love pulling the rug out from under Giannis last spring for nabbing Jrue.

(That said*) This will only motivate Giannis & Dame more.

Great fit there. Even if he’s not scoring he can impact the game. It sucks he didn’t go somewhere else

This reminds me of the 22 series with Giannis against the Celtics. Teammates cant hit an open shot and with the way his #2, Kyrie, has played for the majority of these games, he may as well be a non factor like Khris was.

Luka will be one of the worst defensive players to win MVP when he gets one as soon as next season.

Mavs offense sputtering. We really do have it good on that end. Giannis can just drive on anyone and Dame can almost always get his shot with Khris doing everything he does.

Again finding myself angry that we didnt get a crack at Boston

Boston is about as good as you can get without that mvp guy. It’s like if Indiana was able to build the perfect team around Paul George. They’re not even playing that good but I feel like Dallas has no chance.

The Hyper-2003 Detroit Pistons who had to play the orphanages' best teams on their way to a title.

Jrue has bricked that exact layup 100 times for us in the playoffs.

as the telecast stated... hes the perfect fit on any team he plays on

but we were an even better fit than the celtics. this year would have been such less of a charade if hed been around. gaurantee he wasnt part of the crowd that wanted to punt bud either

Jrue in a role where he can just play freely, be in the right spots and take whatever comes to him without the pressures of bringing up the ball and being relied upon to score is a crazy luxury. He's not even getting the tough assignments very often in this series. Of course he looks amazing.

Pritchard aka Chairman of the Board of Punchable Faces going to the bank on a Sunday. Cool.

Yeah, he’s barely been the guy guarding luka or kyrie and most of his shots have been dunker spot layups

If we could've had Jrue as our 4th best player instead of frequently needing to be our 2nd best, we might've won 3 straight too.

jrues inconsistency offensively when forced to be a focal point is of the same consequence as giannis poor ft shooting and general decision making..... annoying, certainly not inconsequential.... but also not defining in regard to impact in any real larger sense

practically...jrues impact at all times is strong regardless of his offense. but when his offense is rolling hes a superstar period

Of course that went in. Lol
