This is an unfair slight to lebron and Durant because bucks were not beating the nets if kyrie doesn’t get hurt
Giannis would have been giving the yearly Damian lillard speech

Lakers in '87: Won the title when the opposing team's two best players had severe foot and back injuries.
Lakers in '88: Won a title when the opposing team's best player suffered an ankle injury in the Finals and still needed a historically bad call in their favor to clinch the title.
Lakers in '00: Won a title when the defending NBA champions were missing their best player for the entire Playoffs and couldn't defend their title.
Lakers '02: Won a title when a confirmed crooked referee literally rigged games in their favor.
Lakers in '09: Won a title when the defending NBA champions were missing their best player for the entire Playoffs and couldn't defend their title.
Oh oh oh b b b but that was different ass nikkaz
Bucks did t even have depth either....they had two solid bench players(Portis and connaughton) and a bunch of scrubs
Giannis played great no doubt. Congrats on the chip.
But we all know they ain't winning if Kyrie and Harden didn't get hurt.if this was KD or Bron all we would have heard on here is "asterisk this asterisk that".
Think if it this way KD literally almost beat the champs dolo. If his foot is behind the line, they literally don't win and y'all narrative changes completely. Giannis would have been a choker in y'all eyes
Whole playoffs filled with injuriesbut he did it the hard way. Only way they repeat is if more injuries happen next year.
Raptors won bc Klay tore his ACL and KD tore Achilles....why no asterisk there
Warriors beat Cavs with no Kyrie or Love...no asterisk?
Lakers last year were in trouble until Dragic got hurt
09 Lakers beat Celtics with no KG
Teams benefit from.injuries damn near EVERY fukkING YEAR. Stop this dumb ass narrative

Who tf on the Suns was injured
Dario Saric
Stop with this hating ass narrative. This isn’t Loki we don’t have multiverses , there is no actual way of knowing that the nets don’t still lose the series . The Games are played for a reason

Two really good players....would either make an All NBA 1st or 2nd team....NOPE
lol, a very solid but very inconsistent player. A star who has only made one allstar team
.....ok breh. Connaughton stepped up nicely but dude wasnt anything special all year. Every year there a role player that steps up at the right time but let's not act like dude is prime Dan Majerle....he's a solid rotational guard overall

Is Khris Middleton even a top 15 player???
No.one same thinks that. At best he's on the edges of top 30
I thought the coli told me Gasol and Odom were superstars lol. What’s the difference between them and Middleton and Holiday?
Gasol in his prime was a top 5 big man and perennial allstar. No one ever claimed odom was a superstar
James Dean
All Star

Recent 3rd option finals the last 11 years @Joe Sixpack I almost made this a thread...maybe still will
Jrue 17/9/6
KCP 13/3/2
Lowry at 16/7/4
Klay 16/4/2
Klay 16/5/2
Love 9/7 (although to be fair TT avg 10/10)
Either Draymond at 13/8/5 or Klay at 16/4/2
Parker 18/5 or Duncan at 15/10
Bosh 12/9
Bosh 15/9
Either Marion at 14/9 or Chandler at 10/9
MWP 10/5
Jrue was shooting 20-22 shots to get those 17 points tho. That's why stats with no context are pointless. Show the whole.picture not just the part you want ppl to see
Not sure why dummies on here cant grasp this

Bruh the truth is the truth.
All I said was the Coli loves using the term "asterisk" on championship for players they hate on. But all of a sudden I don't hear it as much right now
When of all times you would think they'd use it now given the alarming amounts of injuries this post season.
But it is what it is. Someone had to win, good for Giannis and dem
you won't see me saying this championship don't count.They getting beat in 5 if Nets stay healthy
belee that
we 'll wait till next year tho

No matter how you cut it up that 17 is more that a lot of other guys as 3rd options were getting. Not to mention he was giving you 9 assists and great defense. So yea if he shot less and looked to distribute more they would have been ever better. Good point.

You mean the same Kyrie that manages to get injured quite a bit in the postseason
It was the exact reason why I told dudes to calm down on Brooklyn's championship aspirations.
Giannis pulled a pachulia on Kyrie
plus Harden pulled his hamstring and could barely move. These dudes barely beat KD by himself, an inch away from going fishing
Bucks are food next year

Now to repeat the process. But congrats to Giannis and the Bucks because they were down and out and came victorious.
