Mikal Bridges says the Suns underestimated the Bucks in the Finals

[cartierhoe]

Even ESPN was having discussions at that moment saying a ring would put CP3 behind only Magic, Steph, & Isiah on the All-Time PG list.

Fast forward 2 seasons later and he’s riding the bench for a dying dynasty barely in position for the play-in. Life happens fast.

Yep, I definitely remember it seemed the media coronated them after those 2 games. Just didn’t work out that way.

imagine thinking the other top team in the league whos coming for first time ring

with a hungry superstar... is gonna be a walk in the park scenario

incredulously stupid

Not a Suns fan, but they got some really bad calls by Scott Foster in game 3 getting Ayton in early foul trouble (3 at halftime) then more bad calls game 4 getting Booker with 5 fouls early in the 3rd (10 minutes left) when the Suns had the lead.

Not making excuses for them btw, but game 3 and 4 were some highly questionable officiating (and of course Scott Foster reffed two games).

Nonetheless, both of those teams had some fortunes with their opponents having injuries.

As a Bucks fan.. they got lucky that year

Bucks don’t get past a healthy Brooklyn.

When you stay the course luck has a way of working for you at times

I have always said the West is overrated. Those high scoring teams in the West always get exposed in the playoffs

Both the suns and bucks benefitted from some bullshyt that year. We are looking at a Clippers or Lakers vs Nets finals that year if injuries aren’t a factor. There’s a reason neither team has sniffed a finals appearance since then

Another porch conversations that made it on a pod.

Everyone knows Bucks weren’t supposed to be there.

If it were the Nets , Mikal and Suns energy would be completely different.

Healthy Nets would’ve cooked Suns, no doubt .

That was suppose to be our year

 

[Shadow King]

That confidence is the difference between being a pro & a coli poster

No...

A Brunson and Josh Hart podcast?

 

[MicIsGod]

No you and Ayton loser ass did. fukk em both

 

[2legit]

The Suns in 2021 made the playoffs for the 1st time since 2010. 11 year playoff drought and yall act like you are the Warriors. This is like if Jared Goff said the Lions thought beating the 49ers would be easy. The arrogance of these nikkas who literally won nothing before

Nah, fukk all that. As it turns out, 'a healthy Brooklyn' was an oxymoron. Wasn't it not that long ago when the Booker/Beal/Durant trio matched/passed the amount of games played together as the Kyrie/Harden/Durant trio?

But yeah, I'm here for the content lol. Athletes having their own voices (via podcasts) is so great. Of course they're gonna say some stupid shyt sometimes, but that's life.

I don’t know what point you’re trying to make

All I’m saying is a full strength Nets team dog walks the Bucks.
