NBA Season - now 24/25
-
So, Suns - Bucks for the finals, which is going to be nice. I'm pleased as I don't really care which team wins as both have a player I'd like to see get a ring. I might be leaning Suns after seeing CP3 go so big to get them there, but equally I'd like the Greek to win so that some other small market teams might be able to stay relevant.
Fun couple of weeks coming up with this, AB tests, and the TDF.

@gt12 I'm all Bucks (sorry @shark )
I have no love for Paul, and I like most of that Bucks team. Most of all I want Tucker to win a title, I love that guy
Seen his kicks collection? It’s something else.
I’m all in on the Bucks too. Kris Middleton has taken that next step. Always been a fan of Holiday. Lopez is underrated. Only guy I don’t really like is Portis, and that’s more because when he was at the Bulls he was a punk, talked a big a game and thought he was a lot better than he was.

@act-crusader I haven't actually! I just love his work ethic , for an undersized guy he gets everything out of his talent
Don't show me, I don't want to know.. . 🙈

Agree with all this, love both but the CP3 story is too good and it's possibly his last chance. The Giannis/Middleton/Holliday combo is good and will only get better. They'll have more chances.

@tewaio thing is, Paul is a knob . He constantly flops, he whines worse than Luka and Lebron, and his antics are often a disgrace (when he bitched on his opponent for having his singlet untucked it was just embarrassing)
TGF has his faults, but he plays the right way. Never sells calls, doesn't flop, just all out effort.

Can't wait for this series to start. Anything could happen! The Bucks have the best player but the Suns have the two next best. I have this sneaking suspicion that Bridges will be asked to carry a significant offensive load. We'll need the scoring to be spread as we can't expect Paul to score 30 too often and I reckon Booker will be well marked. So Bridges and Ayton will need to contribute with the ball, and Bridges is a guy who could really upset the balance. Crowder will have to drop some 3s and ensure he's drawing guys outside to create opportunities inside, and Ayton under the glass will have to make hard baskets and take O rebounds all day.

Good solid win for the Suns, but they had to win it or else all the pressure is on them.

What I love about this series also is that only one player across both rosters has played in an NBA finals series (Crowder).
Just on the order of best players, I’d probably go
- Giannis
- Paul
- Middleton
- Booker
- Holiday
