Ayton after two games is not neck and neck for FMVP, lol, nice game 1, but he wasn't as impactful in this one, though still good. So far Paul and Booker are neck and neck, both have done well, Paul shot better, Booker scored more and attacked more, and Paul done a good job controlling the pace, but a little turnover happy late in this one.

He was so important this game got so many 2nd rebounds , made big defensive stops. He’s been very important.

Very important for sure, but not most important after two games. Yes, they have no other real bigs on the roster, so they certainly need his abilities, and he's done well, but finals MVP doesn't simply mean a player who has been very important. Bridges has also been very important.

Rachel Nichols vs Maria Taylor or Malika Andrews. How about none. Get them robot AI interviewers in the game

What are you talking about? Malika is great. So is Maria..Rachel is ok.

Better than listening to Mark Jackson that's for sure.

Number of viewers ESPN would lose if they fired both Taylor and Nichols - ZERO. The value of sports talking heads is vastly over rated.

CP3 has to be Finals MVP in my view. Hes obviously the leader of this team and the better player.

Let's not act like he wouldn't deserve it. Where did the Suns go before CP3 arrived?

like cp3s gonna riot and bolt to lakers on vet min if booker gets it. he only joined to boost his legacy to goat pg.
getting that finals mvp makes him equal to steph at least who has yet to carry his own.

yeah, sure..no finals mvp and he goes to win one next to LeBron and AD.

Right after winning his first championship with Phx and Monty.

It really is too bad the Lakers didn't hire Monty....they wanted him..though he wanted Phx.

he’s a great coach but we just came off championship with ton a injuries , are they Suns getting to the finals without ayton or booker ? No

The people actually agreeing with clowns like Perk that Giannis is the robin on Bucks need a ban here imo.

Ayton, Paul, and Booker are all still healthy.

That is true, but nobody knows what the future holds. All these 2 past games mean is that the Suns protected home court.

Never thought Booker/Ayton would have a ring before these guys.. #halfway there

Lilliard
Harden
Westbrook
P. George

As I said, nobody knows what the future holds or what could happen these next few games. Suns protected home court, now the Bucks have to. Btw the Nets went up 2-0 without Harden and lost game 3 with Kyrie.

Yeah but let’s not forget the big elephant in the room during game 4. Bucks will win game 4 but that’s about it. It’s debatable whether the Suns were the best team in the West with all the injuries but they’re probably better than every other team in the East except a healthy Brooklyn. And obviously they play much much smarter than any of the East semi-finalists.

This along with someone saying Ayton is the best Suns player.

And the tread from last series about Cameron Payne being a starting pg.

It's probably going to be CP3 but I really want Ayton to win FMVP. After all the flak he got people calling him a bust and comparing him to Luka and Trae, it would be so satisfying to see him hold the FMVP

Yeah, but Craig was injured and Crowder is hobbled. Giannis may drop 60 next game if DA gets into a foul trouble. Nothing is over yet.

2nd half Giannis definitely shortened my lifespan by a few days.

Giannis could drop 55 and they will still lose

And how certain are we that those same circumstances at any point don’t occur in this series? That’s kind of my point. Bucks now have home court to protect and Chris Paul isn’t exactly iron man his damn self when it comes to health
