That should be #1 in practice. Over and over. Be the ball. Nanananana…

KD is the real freak , 6'10 beanpole w/ 7'4 wingspan can shoot it from anywhere unguardable ........The Bucks just simply have no game dogs ............I don't think they win game 6 after this collapse ..

Mike Budenholzer should get canned after that 2nd half choke. Pathetic.

-Back cuts for BK for layups
-Giannis 30 feet from hoop rather than on block
-Brook never was in paint so why not go small
-No KD double
-Middelton disappearing

Truly grateful this guy isn't our coach.

KD is closer to 7'1'' than he is to 6'10''. He is one of those players that don't like to be labeled as a 7footer. It is amazing how agile and fast he is for someone that tall. He is the true unicorn.

Yeah Buddy shoulda got those boys running better offense in the 2nd. But as others have said, KD is an animal.

How would y’all feel about Divencehnzo?

A nimble and agile 6'10'' forward with great shooting ability, handle and passing. I hope the Knick brass are taking a hard look at Vrenz Bleijenburgh. The Belgian Durant.

There will probably never be another Durant. Brandon Ingram is probably the closest thing and he ain't even close. I see Vrenz along the lines of a skinny detlef.

Got a a funny feeling Giannis is leaving Milwaukee after next year. This is a Lebron/Cleveland scenario

1st off series is not over.
Nets are running sets that Bucks can’t top. That is part of it. Bucks losing or Nets winning?
Blame game. Maybe Bud has just gone as far as he can with this bunch? Maybe they hire MDA and bring it up tempo? Toronto bought in Nurse and they got lucky with Kawahi.
Maybe they trade Giannis and reset with picks they gave up?
Maybe this is on Giannis too? Maybe this is how he wants to play and they gave him the keys?
somtimes its the team, sometimes its the opponent.
And I know its not easy for some of you to just give Nets credit for executing.

My thinking on Donte is that the Bucks are gonna have very limited assets being capped out and having no picks. So maybe you pull off a trade for him where they get 1-2 picks + Knox and we a very usable two way rotational piece that could be on the cusp of a breakout upon return from injury.

Dahhhhhmmmmmm that was fast but maybe not unexpected

And not for nothing but JKidd must be uber cozy with media and a siv for info, dude's name pops up everywhere and seems like for no reason to me really

CP3 reportedly just entered health and safety protocol due to either exposure or actual Covid-19 - no details provided so unsure of time he will miss.

Let's hope the Clips/Jazz goes 7 games and CP only came in contact with someone with possible exposure... otherwise the Suns may have to go without Paul for the first few games of the series. Hard to not root for the Suns as they finally play solid defense and have an ex-Knick leading the way in Monty!
