    I like Giannis. He’s a bad ass and plays like a beast. So I’m going for the Bucks.

    Board would melt over a bucks win. It would be an absolute narrative destroyer.

    It'll be worth it if they smash the Warriors. Warriors hate overrides all.

    Only because of the Harden-MVP thing which I find stupid.

    I really dont see any reason to hate the Bucks.

    I think more because of the widely held belief that the rockets are the only team to even come close to dethroning the warriors. If the bucks were to dethrone the dubs, that narrative (which has been used largely as a pacifier for poor play) would be rendered permanently false.

    The narrative has been lazy as some plays which led to TOs have been in the clutch.

    I agree, it's a lazy narrative and I hope it's falsified. (also, I don't like the warriors)

    Bucks. It's hard not to like them. They're one of the most humble and likeable teams in the league. No floppers, no dirty players, no arrogance. Just a bunch of guys who play ball.

    So, in any game the Warriors are playing, there would be the Warriors, and the team I'm rooting for (ie, it would never be the Warriors)

    I agree they don't deserve more titles but I don't want the bucks to win their first post hippie-era title ever (or at least not for 4-5 years and not vs worriers) Gianus get MVP, a championship and maybe finals MVP??? Hell to the naw.

    It's like rooting for a gang member to kill a serial killer.

    The script is setup for the warriors to win the 3 peat while also starting Lebrons next 3 championships.

    The Bucks might have the potential to defeat them. The arrogance of GS will be laid to rest if they lose.

    I'm not a Bucks fan, nor do I care much about Giannis. Nevertheless I can live with the Bucks winning it all.
    My prediction is that GS will win 4-2.
    Klay and Curry will have an easy time against them, and Giannis can't shoot unlike Harden.

    It's a tough call, but I'm going to be pulling for the Bucks.

    The Warriors need a slice of humble pie, and at this point I don't really care who gives it to them.

    I don't fundamentally hate Giannis, but the hate is mostly MVP related. He "took" Harden's trophy.

    Best thing for Houston is the Warriors sweeping everyone. Don't lose to a team repeatedly then have someone else beat them. Media will discuss how the Rockets were GS biggest competition.

    Actually, Giannis is one of the dirtiest players in the league. Watch the games, not the hype.
