    Because then the other teams would know? Why would you reveal that to the public? Think for a second and stop making bad arguments.

    I mean if a lot teams were healthy they would have been better than teams that won it/got there. Injuries happen.

    I think you underestimating the Suns. Also, I think it will be a while before Kahwi comes back. He won't do it until he is ready, and he won't try to be like Harden and force himself on the court.

    Random fact: The Bucks have only 1 player who drafted in the top 10 of their draft, Brook Lopez. Their medium 3 were all drafted after the 15th pick, all post lottery picks.

    Bucks gave up 3 first round picks for Holliday. It got Giannis to commit and re-sign for 5 years and they're a title contender now.

    Compared to Boston who held on to their picks and never made it deep

    He played really bad for the two games before this though. At a certain point you don't get points for toughing it out when you are actively hurting your team. Also, while continuing to play with a bad quad he jacked up 12 threes tonight. Call it and excuse if you like but that's bad basketball IQ.

    I think Harden had to play so many minutes just to avoid his body from going cold sitting on the bench for too long. If that hammy got cold, I could see aggravating it making it an even worse injury to recover from long term.

    If they win it, I doubt they'd care about the label, which is what my reaction would be if the Rockets were in a position to win a title too. You don't get to pick your title opportunities where every team is at full strength. You take what opportunities are available at present and try and make the most out of it. Like imagine how bad the Bucks would feel knowing they didn't win it with all the injuries other title favorites have had this postseason. This is the best chance they got to win it compared to years past.

    His hamstring was hurt. It wasn’t top secret information. Whether the grade was 1, 2 or 3 it doesn’t matter. You’re the only one white knighting this “bbbut bbut but it was a grade 2 guyzzz!” Bs narrative. If he was that hurt he should’ve sat his fat ass on the bench next to Kyrie. If you’re on the floor and you play poorly and it’s not the first, second or even 6th time you’ve come up short in an elimination game you’re gonna feel the heat.

    It's crazy that Harden finally plays with another elite shot maker and the fool goes MIA lol. ****ing Joe Harris.

    It does matter? What are you nuts? Do you know how hamstrings or medical issues work? They probably lose in 5 if he doesnt play, thats how much depth the Nets had which was none. He shouldnt have played, he was an idiot for that. But what he doesnt deserve is dudes like you (who continually make bad arguments) saying he chocked.

    Who else was gonna take those shots? Mike James? KD could not carry more than what he was physically able to. Yea he was stupid for playing on it but when you are out there, you try what you can. If he's not a threat to shoot at all, they can load up on KD even more than they did.

    I dont think he should have been playing at all is my point. Nash panicked like his mentor MDa panics. Nash didn't trust he could coach well enough to win a couple games with just KD..
