Durant & PJ had a good hug but I missed it.

Really going to spike the ball on a guy playing at 40%?

Lol. I'm going to struggle to stay invested. Whatever.

Great series. Great game 7. Weird last five minutes.

Fuck James Harden.

Yeah, I mean he’s clearly massively hobbled. If this is the regular season that’s a 6 or 8 week injury. 

Fuck Nash and Harden too. How do you waste a series like this? 

They were doomed once Kyrie got hurt. Nash does have a lot to learn though, a more competent coach would have probably found a way to win this series. I’ll give Harden a pass with his injury.

The bigger issue is going all in on the big 3 without a decent bench and a consistent long range shooter.

Because his fat ass didn't train this off season.

That game 3 slopfest was so crucial. Looked like the Bucks were prolonging the inevitable, but they outlasted the Nets because of it.

wasn't harris supposed to be that?

Really hoping for a Bucks vs Hawks conf finals.

Because fuck Dwight Howard and fuck Coach Doc Rivers.

yep. Playoffs have a way of showing a player's true value.

Like Joe Harris? If he was any better Brooklyn wins this going away. But he put in one of the worst series I've ever seen from game 3 on.

A Milwaukee vs. Phoenix NBA finals.  I am sure the league office is thrilled.

How do you get a decent bench with a big 3...? And they have a 40+% three point shooter in Joe Harris. He’s one of the most consistent shooters in the league before this series. The Nets lost because 2 of their 3 best players were hurt. Thems the breaks.

He’s been shit all playoffs, really not that good during the stretch of the reg season.

No KD, LeBron, or Curry in an NBA Finals for the first time since 2010.

Miami and GS had decent benches with their big 3. That’s where a real GM comes into play. Harris was so unclutch. Maybe they can coax Ray Allen out of retirement, lulz.

Joe Harris led the league in 3%. What are y’all even talking about?

Add Duncan, Kobe, and Wade to this and we can stretch it out to 1998.

His whiny bitch ass should take better care of his body.

Besides if you really expected James to show up when it mattered, you didn't pay attention to his Rockets playoff struggles.a9b6922b05171bc2542336de9017cabb.jpg

How did that bench work out for GSW when 2 of their 3 were out?

Joe Harris, the new Kyle Korver. Never hits shit when it matters.

He had a good reg season PRIOR to the end of the reg season and the playoffs. I guess I’m spoiled by Ray Allen and Robert Horry who were clutch, lulz.

I do love ratings talk. 

I am not a fan of rigging games in favor of star players, but some bean counters in the league office are a bit nervous right now.

At the end of the day it's the fucking Nets. I'm not sure this is even registering in top sports losses with me. Durant further established his legacy and then some.

Offseason will be interesting. Personally I wouldn't let Nash back in the building with Carlisle floating around. Their bench needs serious work. Who knows. Heat blew that 2011 Finals then rattled two off. They'll be back. 

The guy who rehabbed his rep big time this series was Middleton.  Really came through and led the team to the ECF...arguably moreso than Giannis.

Better get Philly through. Hawks might get fucked by the refs tomorrow.

Did Miami? And GS benefited a few times from contract/ salary cap anomalies. BKN has 3 dudes making big ass cash. And Harris is well compensated too. And the KD/Kyrie tax is apparently paying DeAndre Jordan.

Honestly that they have Blake, Shamet, Brown and Claxton is pretty fucking solid considering the above

you don't think KD hits 2/2 FTs?

The bucks had the ball with six seconds left, not the Nets.

Pay attention.

He was bad in this playoff series but he was not bad during the regular season, even at the end, or in the first round.  Not sure where you are even getting that. Point being, super teams never can count on role players to replace their stars. That’s why they are role players.

We have like 2/10 of the best players in the league left right now.  You’re probably right about that, although Trae is elevating his profile.

Pay attention.

So when you say they should have fouled, you mean that Milwaukee should have committed an offensive foul?

What in the fuck are you talking about.

The Bucks were up 2 with 8 seconds left and the ball out of bounds. Lopez boneheaded turnover happens. Then it's Nets ball with :06 left. Nets are in the bonus. KD hits *long* 2 and ties it up. At this point you chime in and say "I can see why bud is on the hot seat. They'd have won if they fouled there."

Which is among the dumbest commentary offered up in this thread. Pay attention.

Either way I'm not sure I can stomach watching the Bucks in the ECF. Guess I'm pulling for Chris Paul. Yay.

Have we gotten definitive word on Kawhi’s availability for the WCF?
