Didn't know I was so popular. LOL!!
I think Devin showed himself very well. 40 pts game 4 and 5. Game 6 he had to primary defend Middleton and held him to 17 pts.
This was a TaylorMade finals for Giannis.The Suns wings are Tayshawn Prince role player level and Ayton has the defensive instincts on 75 rating NBA 2K level. Being 6'11 and averaging 1.2 blk is a crime. But Ive seen Andre Drummond with two 30/20 games on dude so Giannis with 50 as primary defender aint rare air.
Im glad Free Throw coach and NBA ref Scott Foster allowed Giannis to get his proper FT practice reps in to the tune of.getting to the line as much as the entire Suns team.
Phx should have been swept and were one Booker shot from being down 3-2. The Bucks are no flash in the pan but you still have to look at the fact that they choked two finals appearances away to the Raptors and Heat.
Not like they took down LeBron or a Healthy Nets team. Glad they got a chip but they aren't repeating anytime soon.
For selfish reasons I rather not see Booker as Mr. Sun. Sarver is an ass owner and if Paul leave it no guarantee James Jones can get the 1.5-2 all stars they are going to need to play next to Booker. Sarver isnt spending that type money and Devin may want to move on.
Once this all shakes out, guys like Devin and Draymond Greenwill be on the market. I have no problem maxing Devin and giving Dray a MLE contract. Add that to Team USA player Jerimi Grant and Cade Cunningham and you see were Im going with this.
Giannis and the Bucks winning the East and finals only shows me how easy the East can be won with no LeBron and KD being on a team with two China dolls in Kyrie and Harden.
Dame and KD personally asked for Grant to be put on team USA. Don't be surprised if Troy Weaver does make a play for Dame while Cade is on a cheap contract. Cade is a year one or two All star and is probably the most talent SF to wear a Piston uniform since Hill.
If Im Weaver, Im poaching Dame or Devin while I have the assets like 2nd round picks with past and future 1st round picks. Fhe Pistons also have three former lottery picks that include former Sun and Detroiter Josh Jackson.
Please dont give the nobody wants to play in Detroit crap. Guys like Jackson, Devin, Draymond, Miles Bridges and Emoni Bates have zero problems with the franchise or state they are from.
I don't think Devin getting to game six in the Final finals in the first year playing with 36 Y/O Chris Paul, an immature Ayton and ZERO scoring or defense specialiar coming off the bench is anything in comparison to Steph playing with Finals MVP former alll star Iguodala, former 1st pick Bogut, all NBA D Green, Thompson, with a deep ass bench
Devin started getting Kobe comparisons and answer ed that with back to back 40pt game in the finals. Something Kobe never did. If you want to rag on him for not winning game five Kobe only hit a game winning shot in the finals in a losing 4-1 effort to the Pistons and was ass stat wise in most finals series.
Steph still aint cane up clutch in any big game in the 4th quarter and is a known messy ass nigga with brain fart like TO at the worse time im the clutch. Draymond Oubre, Wiggins, and Wiseman with Steph are as talent as the Suns with Pau,l Devin, and Ayton yet couldn't sniff the playoffs while Devin got 2nd seed, beat the Lakers with gimpy AD, and made the finals.
Say what you want about Devin having a bad game on offense game 6 game six but there is no way in hell Steph gets the defensive assignment against the other teams best shooter. If you dont think chasing Middleton around screens all day aint tiring, then must be on that same head swelling hGh ya boy Giannis uses as Cheerios toppings.
But, hey. No grief from me. Congratulations to the Bucks fans. They showed that winning in the NBA can be done anywhere and you don't have to be in Florida, Texas, or California to win. Fuck you
@jasonblacc ol weak ass. LOL. Have a nice day!!
