    He said “until”. Get ready for the hot reports that Giannis wants out now! Looking at joining Knicks, Lakers, Warriors, Nets!

    feel kinda bad for CP. it's just not in his cards.

    hats off to Giannis though. he had incredible games and his team backed him up when necessary.

    Harden just can’t stay off of so many of y’all’s minds. It’s an obsession. Had the Suns won there would be post after post about Chris Paul just like it was early in the series when the Suns were up 2-0, but now it’s about his old beef with Giannis. Lmao

    Don't forget at the expense of salary, too. lol. Then kept his mouth shut (for the most part) while the team went to crap around him. All the while having massive shoe bills to pay. He's the real MVP.

    Those players seem durable, but damn, way too much basketball.

    I hope Morey and Harden never know what this feels like.

    I don't see why would he want to leave anyway. Look at Lebron, winning in the West isn't as easy as it looks.

    And yet, they beat them. They might have beaten them with Kyrie too - it's not like the Nets were some kind of invincible team. In every series, the Bucks got better as the series went on. They always did whatever they needed to win each series in the end - this one was no different. It took historic performances from Giannis to beat the the Suns in 6 games including several close games and big comebacks.

    Suns were the #2 seed in the west - they proved how good they were all season. But they didn't have playoff experience. Paul did, but Booker and Ayton had never been in the playoffs before, and this year, they faced no adversity at all until this series. They were always ahead and pretty much dominated the first three series and even the early part of the finals. But once things went wrong, they didn't have the experience the Bucks did of being behind so much these playoffs and having failed in past years, and they made critical mistakes down the stretch in close games. Unless you have Lebron, it generally takes a few years for teams to gel to a championship level. Bucks did that; this is the Suns' first year of it.

    Like I said, at least the Harden fans are consistent. Every year these bums latch onto every all star that does well to **** on Harden, trumpeting their successes while conveniently ignoring their failures that are as big or bigger than Harden's.

    Kevin Porter Jr. dropped 50 points on the NBA champions.

    Harden nuthuggers are a truly insecure group. Last years playoffs it was hating on Jimmy Butler, before that Steph Curry, sprinkle in Dame anytime he drops 50+ and or hits clutch game winners. Harden fanbois hate on anything and anyone that’s a threat to their bearded bum hero.

    it’s really the goofy coaching of D’Antoni and no mid range Morey system that was a hoax
