I'm predicting the Bucks will overplay their Giannis hand.

A generational level talent but he's only got 2.5 years left on his contract. Holding him until the summer seems pointless and risky. Teams are willing to empty the clip on him now, that's not guaranteed in the summer.

Likely any Giannis trade is going to be bad for the Raps.

On the Bucks, he has no future. Moving him very likely means a trade to the East and that's bad for the Raps as that acquiring team will get better.

Spurs vs Rockets would be a fun playoff series. I'd be okay with the Rockets winning the championship. One more for KD. Plus I'd like to see Amen take the next step. Them or Denver is my vote.

Wolves up 15 on OKC in the 3rd.

Suns without Booker up 11 on Pistons, Brooks shooting the lights out. 40 points with 6 minutes left. Suns young coach really has them defending

Gradey better call Kon to work with him this offseason. Unreal looking at the difference between them since coming out of college. I believe their shooting stats were comparable, but Kon had slightly higher averages. I'd love if Gradey had nights like Kon is having tonight.

Game of the year

Also I’ve been wanting Max Christie on the Raps for 3 years now… back when he was a nobody, wish we got him then. :(

Cooper should’ve taken the three instead of running into the double team

Brooks has been averaging 20ppg! Raptors can't beat the top 3 teams in the east and the Suns with Brooks, Connor Gillespie, Royce Oneal,Grayson Allen and Mark Williams are up like 20 on the Pistons with a minute to go. :-?

I mentioned him draft night but he's always seemed like sneaky underrated guy. Lakers usually draft those typa players ironically
