Game 6 Klay is a real thing. This one is probably over.

Milwaukee just gave one of the worst playoff series performances I've ever seen in my life. Not one of those games did they look like they wanted to win. Piss poor, embarrassing performance.

They seriously lost to Miami?

Nothing will ever top the We Believe Warriors beating a 67 win Mavs team in 6 in 07. Dirk won the MVP that year and after losing in the finals the year before the entire season felt like a long coronation for that Mavs team only for them to get shite on by a Warriors squad that finished a game over .500 and barely made the playoffs on a tie breaker. That shite was insane. Andries Biedrins tha GOAT


Yeah that's up there too. I'd give the edge to this series because Milwaukee has already won a championship and Miami didn't have their second leading scorer for the entire series.

Dude has been an absolute monster in the playoffs since 2020. Next level shite. Easily my favorite player to watch outside of the Nugs.

They were the healthiest team in the league. That boosted the record. They don’t have the talent of a team who makes it out the first round. They woulda beat clippers and Minnesota in rd 1 but that’s it.

Is the Bucks championship window still open? That supporting cast around Giannis is starting to get up there in age. Lopez will be 36 next year, Middleton will be 32, and Holiday will be 33.

He needs a designated FT shooter. I cannot give the best player in the league label to a guy that melts at the line like this. Shaq was such a freak he was going to dunk it on you regardless due to size and strength unless you did hack a Shaq without the ball. Giannis wants to act like a PG a lot yet shoot like this.

Any player needs a ton of help to win a championship no matter how good they are. We've seen it with Curry, LeBron, Durant, Wade, and Kobe. Can't do it alone.

A ton. His FT shooting is horrible and if he's not running a fast break his post offense is laughable. He needs shooters around him. He needs guys like Lopez and Portis cause he isn't tough either. But I blame the coaching more than him.

You left out the part where Sacramento's best player is now playing with a broken finger on his shooting hand. I'm sure that had nothing to do with it.

We just glossing over Milwaukee’s far and away best player only playing 8 injured quarters?

GSW > and it’s not close

The guy still had 24 points, made three 3 pointers and played 42 minutes.

It took 11 minutes and 40 seconds for Sacramento to be called for a foul in the 4th quarter (even with Green getting hit in the face while going for a layup.) No one should be for lopsided officiating, especially in the playoffs.

Good thing Bucks won a few years ago because media would and should be absolutely crushing them after that shitshow they put up. Giannis or not
