    Embid was a low-key choke show against the Hawks. Probably because he was playing on a torn ligament.

    If Simmons didn't do what he did, Embid would have receives some major criticism.

    lol he was scoring 40 points per game at one point...its the lamest excuse...atlanta also had several injured players, some of them didnt even play...ATLANTA IS LEGIT...at least more legit than bucks who were about to be swept vs nets until they won a close game 3 and kyrie went down

    The ATL roster is actually pretty deep.

    PJ dipped into his dribble package for that reverse layup attempt. :D

    I think the Hawks are "cute story," but people calling them a great team. Not really, they're ok. But, look they faced another overrated team in the Knicks and injured with ego bruised Philly. They've got a future, but 4 games and done against most of WC teams, all the way down to the Lakers and maybe Memphis.

    Capela should have passed being sandwiched by two bigs.

    Would be more poignant/ financially literate to use profit to make this point, not revenue.

    Still dumb regardless.

    I don't know if NBA teams actually release net profit, they're private for the most part iirc; the revenue they release for CBA-BRI-salary cap purposes

    The hawks beat an injured team? What did the bucks do? Philly missed danny green, brooklyn missed HOF players. If anyone is overrated its the bucks. Their defense and offense are both worse than previous years and would have been swept if the nets were healthy.

    To think about the Conference Finals battle the Rockets had with the Warriors was only a few short years ago... and this is the quality of Conference Finals we get now.

    Wow.

    Capela's teammates really letting him down after he does the work to get the ball out of Giannis' hands.

    I hate when players try to force up a shot off vertical between multiple defenders. Its insanely frustrating. Kick the damn ball out someone is open
