Can’t imagine what playing the entire 48 minutes feels like. This is the definitive Kevin Durant game
Yep, this game should do more for his legacy than any Warrior game he played.

If the Bucks can't get some coaching and do the things that actually work and get them leads, they're done.

My brother just sent a text that the Bucks remind him the McCarthy lead Packers..."Guys, it's crunch time and a close game. I'm going to forget we have Aaron Jones, go 5 wide, and sling it all over the fricking field 3 times in a row for the next 6 possessions."

The gimp played 46 minutes and the Bucks didn't look for ways to punish him on D.

Harden just gave one of the most gutsiest performances I have even seen. Had no business being out there. All nba Defense on Giannis. Playmaking. Rebounding. Etc. MIL is going home to wrap up this series without him. This is BKN in 6 now. And the title as well.

Also, crazy how KD and Green were both on the Sonics and it's come full circle to them doing this together on the Nets for this game, pretty cool.

I already re-watched it. He had Jeff Green right in front of him.

If Giannis catches it, it’s an easy dunk.
Why is this being debated?

It was a beautiful play from the moment it started at the top of the key.

It ended in an automatic slam if Giannis hangs on to the pass. Poorly timed physical error but the play was great.

Because they don’t have a true primary ball handler, they have 3 secondary ball handlers.

Seriously, why was Giannis not on KD? Freak athlete and you have Middleton trying to guard him.


So I asked that in the thread a couple games ago, and I thought someone made a good point about Giannis struggling to fight thru screens.

But… I’d at least try it

Harden was still +4

Gianna was -8. He is the playoff flop of all flops. The bucks playoff chances have as much chance as my Latina gf fitting going to a bikini by the end of summer

Was an incredible play by Middleton. Like Jrue’s spin in game 3.

Giannis completely blew it.

I think the lesson with Giannis is that a star without a jumper isn’t built for the postseason in the modern NBA.

If you can’t pull up and shoot, you’re not a viable 4th quarter option in a tight game.

No kidding. He cooked Middleton. He was on fire but you have to put your best on him.

Harden impact can never be measured by a Fg%. This has been the case for years. His leadership as THE on court leader for Brooklyn (according to coach nash). Is immeasurable.

Jeff Green is like, "Shut up Barkley. Don't tell them they could go small and run us off the court."
