I would have felt like a fuddy-duddy if I said it at the time, but it was annoying when Lasry jumped to the front of the line to hold the trophy. It was commented on by some nat'l pundits. This was after forcing his way into the EC championship picture.

And Lasry didn't even do anything relative to other league owners. What he did was equivalent to starting on 3rd base w/ 1 out, proceeded to put the ball in play, & the opponent committed an error to allow the winning run.

As far as owners go, Edens doesn't really bother me. He does a solid job while keeping a low enough profile. He deserves some credit for the win. Lasry does not and he's the one grandstanding for it.

The ONLY negative of the last few days is seeing a girl I (sorta) used to date post a video from the locker room with Giannis right next to her with the goggles on and a cigar. She works for the team on the medical staff and gets to bring one person to each game. I went to a Sixers game with her, went in through a team entrance, stood right at the locker room door before and after the game and chilled by Lasry for a minute, sat a few rows behind the bench by Ersan's family who spoke no english. Amazing experience for a regular season game, but seeing that video was nuts. Things didn't really work out with her but now I'm like....... I should probably call her. :lol:

Don't do it.

You clearly want us to talk you out of it

I say do it. I know a lotta folks out here just surviving marriages. You can suck it up and be a good boyfriend until Giannis/Khris/Jrue contracts are up.

Love watching Giannis getting the MVP chants, remembering back to the celebration after his first MVP, when he said don't call me MVP again until I win a championship. He seemed pretty satisfied with the chants now.

I've watched that steal and dunk about 200 times. When Jrue throws it and then jumps for no reason I lose it every time. God damn what a play. Pat comes over for the hug after and then at the very end when the game is over you see the look on giannis's face and its like no **** way were the bucks going to lose it.

Thank God we're not all posting in a Game 7 thread right now.

Is this ok to post? Delete if not. It is not my item or store.

This popped up on the book of faces and it seemed like folks here might also be interested - it's a book commemorating the season/championship. No idea what'll be inside yet, but I checked out some of their other books on Amazon and from purchasers' pictures it looks like they include lots of pics, stats, some stories, etc. It looks pretty well done.

As a fan who was there I wept as my son thanked me while the clock hit zero.

I just watched again from beginning to end....I cried again.

Is something wrong with me?

Look, I get the sentiment. Truly, I do. But if any of you doubt that I didn't have another gear left to push my posting to even greater heights, that's on you.

No way. I got choked up when PJ hit that corner three against Atlanta. I started weeping with about a minute left of game clock through commercial breaks and free throws while in the Deer District during game 6, and I got choked up today again during the speeches. The reason we're all here is because nobody else gave a rats ass about this team for 20 years. We did. To us more than anyone else, it MATTERED. Now the streets are flooded with hundreds of thousands of people chanting Bucks in Six. That's as wtf as it gets.

It happened. It actually happened.

There are still Buck/Packer haters that live in WI.

As far as the bandwagoners....yeah it's ridiculous. I remember Giannis' 3rd or 4th year telling this bulls-lakers-cleveland.....fan get on the bandwagon now cuz I don't want to hear anything later.

He just laughed.
