Will The Deer Fear The Eclipse? - Official Bucks vs. Suns 2021 NBA Finals Thread

[Foxmulder]

None of the other superstars are as lethal as Giannis at the rim, and none of the other superstars are as consistently dominant on both ends.

And what do you mean not a skilled defender like Kawhi? Giannis is literally one of the 3 best rim protectors in the league.

Only 5-6 kats in league history can shoot like KD.

Bron probably has the highest BBIQ in NBA history.

What are you really saying?

Dude is taking the best skill from multiple superstars and comparing them to one player.

See, you keep putting words in my mouth lmao. Of COURSE Bud can't 'reliably' adjust. It's been the main criticism of him for..well, forever. But AGAIN, HE IS MAKING ADJUSTMENTS IN THESE FINALS. He is WORKING Monty. Point blank period.

And it's easy for ppl to say we have the better team NOW, when 3 games ago we woulda been lucky to win a single game in these finals. fukk outta here.

i'm not putting words your in mouth. any energy to rewrite the book on bud is straight up jokes

"he's making adjustments"

like giannis ain't out here doing godbody shyt on both ends while chris paul is having a nervous breakdown bucks win in spite of that clown. always have. hate when coattail riding coaches get credit for players efforts....

 

[the cool]

pretty decent nba finals this year

Raps were the #1 defense in the league that year it was alot more than Kawhi's defense....

They weren't 1...they were 5th

Kawhi defense is the reason they were able to win. He led the raptors in points and rebounding

Those two stats show who's dominating the game off basketball.

Replace Booker with Kawhi on this raptors team and they lose in the second round to the 76ers.

No 7 footer shoots like KD except KD

Nice photo

LeBron trying to figure out how to get a Kuzma and others for Giannis trade going

I really don't think it was dirty like that. I doubt Chris could even locate Giannis properly to goon him tbh

Jrue SHOULD have dribbled the ball out and Chris was confuddled as all hell

Just amazing boldness by Jrue and Giannis an all-time athlete man

It was still too much time out to just dribble the clock out. At that point you go for the easy two versus taking chances on free throws. I could see if it was already a 3 point game and they just needed one free throw but they were only up 1.

@FloorGeneral do you believe yet?

 

[Cave Savage]

Harden's Giannis slander is looking real corny now

 

[SuaveyBoi115]

These media ppl are so stupid, this is why Kyrie left lmaoo

I legit would’ve did a Lebron walk-out after that question

This is the best NBA Finals since 2016, and the best NBA playoffs for probably even longer. A lot of people were hating in the earlier rounds, but are quiet now.

Man, feel bad for clippers fans tho,they would've probably won the chip by now, kwahi and PG would feasted on every mistake the bucks make

Yes, you are putting words in my mouth. Did it again here too. AGAIN, ain't nobody trying to rewrite the book on him. Jesus Christ we all know he's a shyt coach. Been a shyt coach. That doesn't change the fact that he's having a great Finals.

He's alternating big and small lineups constantly. He's switching who defends CP3 and Booker constantly. He's giving them different looks on the PNR constantly. Everybody been talking about how we started making CP3 go to his left. Suns shot a shytload of corner 3s in the first 2 games, and have gotten few good looks from there since. Adjustments.

Hell, I was laughing towards the end of the 3rd, cause he sat Giannis. Monty got Kaminsky up to get Ayton some rest, and at the next whistle Giannis was back at the table. Kaminsky went and sat back down lol. It's just little things like that make all the difference in these close games.

 

[threattonature]

I for real feel bad for Booker. The man just put up over 40 in back to back games while shooting over 50% in both games and I haven't even seen it really be mentioned because of the one late turnover. That man was carrying the Suns again for long stretches tonight and the main reason it was close while busting his ass on defense.
