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

[Frida Giezman]

whos talking about Middleton? Obviously he deserves “some” votes.. that’s the acknowledgment but the FMVP of the series is Gannis.. why you being a contrarian?

I’m not

I want Giannis to win a title and finals mvp

but with potentially two games remaining I don’t necessarily think he’s a lock for mvp if Milwaukee wins

so I was just giving you a scenario where I can see Middleton winning mvp because he was the one that closed out the game in two of their wins in this series thus far

It's called body type and frame. He has a similar frame to my frame. He has broad shoulders, big thighs, bigger delts. It put on 150 pounds from when I was 14. It's not hard.

Damn boy sounds like you should call up an NBA team for a tryout, might be the next Giannis we never knew about instead of being a wack coliseum poster

Smack, who is this nikka? You and Freda, adds @Hammer and it's officially the three stooges. Three nobody idiotic posters.

Jacoby brought up a good point

it woulda been smarter for holiday to pull the ball out after stripping booker and force the suns to foul him rather than throwing a lob to Giannis a bad free throw shooter

risky play but it worked out for them

I wouldn't be surprised if Book puts down another 40 piece in GM 6.Out of all the Suns, I know he's going to go all out, and play desperate.The rest of the team seems to be going through the motions.Book's a legit cornerstone piece.If he ever learned how to contain his emotions & stop wrestling with the refs, he'd be even more of a problem.Talented as he is, breh has the focus of a preschool toddler.Can get a lil ADHD'ish out there.Still only 24, tho.I'm not mad at him.At least he plays with heart.The guy I'm cooling down on is Mikal Bridges.He's going to demand a nice size contract, but he's too inconsistent.Maybe another Kerry Kittles at best.

What i appreciate is, I think Booker is well aware that if he doesn't win the title now, he may not be back in the Finals until he's 34... if ever again. League is too fluid with roster turnover, injuries.. not to mention star players that are comparable if not better than Devin... there's simply no guarantee you'll ever be back. Nobody thought 9 years ago that Russ would never make another NBA Finals, or that it'd take Dwight 12 years to return (and as a journeyman) following his 09 run.

Booker ain't fukkin around, which is dope to see. But to your point, it's also costing him bc of the foul trouble. Still, i find those mistakes more forgivable than how his teammates are playing.

These 2 day layoffs in between is coooooooorny

 

[Ziggiy]

I’ve never really heard Devin speak. He sounds like Common

 

[Ziggiy]

what world do you live in where this is happening?

and if this goes 7 games and bucks win and middleton dominates games 6 and 7 he isnt deserving of mvp?

Giannis is the finals MVP if the Bucks win off the sheer amount of dedication and heart he showed balling on that hyperextended knee.

Even when they went down 2 Giannis REFUSED to lay down his saber. Call Middleton the “closer” all you want but there is no ability to close without Giannis getting them there.

Middleton has no chance in hell of winning Finals MVP unless the Bucks get the title-clinching win without Giannis and Middleton goes BONKERS during it. And even then, they'll say that they don't even get in position to clinch if not for Giannis.

This whole series, there were only two REAL choices for Finals MVP: CP3 if Phoenix wins, or Giannis if Milwaukee wins. Booker is coming on strong but his best games have come in losses.

Idk what series y’all are watching but cp3 literally blew game 4 by himself which woulda gave them a 3-1 series lead and they woulda most likely gone on to win it all

he was also pretty quiet last game until he woke up in the 4th quarter and made some big shots

booker has to score 40 just to keep these games close

the one bad game he had this series the suns got blown out

as for Giannis his numbers speak for themself and I’m not mad at him getting finals mvp just based on what he did so far and coming off the knee injury

I’m just saying Middleton makes tough shots down the stretch when the game tightens up

he’s been clutch

did you see that stretch in the 3rd last game where him and booker were trading baskets

that can’t be overlooked

Same one as you. What I'm saying is that coming into the series, the voters were ready to crown CP3 if Phoenix won it.

Middleton has been great in the last couple of games but they won't give it to him over Giannis because he hasn't had a bad game, period. His worst effort was what, his 20-15 output in Game 1 coming back from the hyperextended knee?

Middleton is Giannis’s sidekick brogawd, no chance of fmvp, Giannis is up

It's just people looking for talking points at this point.

It's either Giannis or Booker. They're not going to do the bullshyt they pulled with Igoudala and Steph anymore.
