NBA Season - now 24/25

Middleton is really good. When his shot isn't falling I love that he gets rebounds and finds ways to contribute. The issue with him is his consistency. He just can't be relied on every night.
Booker certainly has a higher ceiling, and could one day be the best guy on a contender. Right now, who is the better 2nd banana?
It's pretty close!

@shark agree. What we're seeing is Middleton needing to step up and Booker being able to rely on Paul. Booker is a potential future MVP. I don't think Middleton is that.
Right now it’s Middleton for me, and I agree with @voodoo that Booker may well reach greater heights.
And as has been shown in the playoffs this year, Middleton has stepped up and had some massive games.

Sweet shooting from Book tonight.
Some home cooking from the refs in that 3rd quarter…😉

CP3 making an early bid for FMVP
I think this is a lock now and the series is over. Momentum is too strong, Suns in 4 or 5. Sir Charles will be happy!
I wouldn’t write the Bucks off at home, they’re 7-1 at home in the playoffs so far.
If the Suns hit 20 three’s in another game in this series, I’ll eat my potae…

@act-crusader they haven't needed to hit 20 threes to win games. That was one out of the box.

Coming into the game, the Americans had been 54-2 in exhibition games since professionals started playing in 1992. Nine years ago, they beat Nigeria by 83 points in the London Olympics. Five years ago, Team USA beat Nigeria by 43 points in an exhibition.

Aussies have one of those two.
As for the game itself, it had the intensity of a glorified shoot around. Didn’t even match the intensity of one of those playground pick up games that the pros play.

Aussies had a buzzer beater win (by Patty Mills) against the Argies. Both teams with plenty of NBA players.

Good start for the Bucks. Up 60-45 at HT. Phoenix struggling on the 3 ball. Better perimeter D from the Bucks though. Jrue picking up CP3 full court.
Middleton far more involved in the offence. When they run a high pick for him, he is making good plays.
Second unit for Phoenix were a little exposed in a big run by the Bucks.
