Have you forgotten Kawhi Leonard's game 7 winner already?

First off Kawhi shot wasn't a 3 pointer and second the game was tied so if he missed they go OT.

I said if Durant's shot had been a 3 (which would have turned the loss into a win) would have been 1 of the greatest 3 point shots in NBA playoff history.

Well that's game that 1 inch being on the line cost them the game.

No timeout on the rebound I thought was a mistake (easy to say after the fact) but then worst of all another crazy miracle long 2 point shot this time not going in.

Hard to believe The Nets lost this game.

This news pleases me. Can't stand Kyrie, Harden , or Griffin. Lopez makes up for the terrible plays down the stretch with that block on Durant. Credit due.

That corner shot by Kawhi wasn't a 3?

Still.. that was iconic.. and maybe only because how that shot bounced like 5 times on the rim.. but regardless I think that shot was one of the GOATS

Am I correct that if the Sixers take the Hawks, there’ll be a former Cat on every team in the conference finals?

Nets just didn't do much the last 5 minutes of regulation and OT. Toss up game for sure... but not impressed with the so called Nets super team. I know they have injuries but almost every team seems to have key injuries right now. Durant and Harden are getting old, like Lebron. Durant is getting LeBrons bald spot LOL.....

I'll root for Phoenix because of Booker most likely.

Just no real roster consistency this year. What's the number of games all 3 of these guys played together? Maybe 15?

Not to mention super steams take a while to get going. I think they'll be much more consistent next year.

But id also think of getting rid of Kyrie at this point. The dude couldn't play in game 7, do or die, after being in and put about 10 times this year. Id trade him, get a middling, defensive minded PG, and build the bench.

First time hearing Khris Middleton speak.. very well spoken and smart. I could see him being an analyst soon after his career is done.

Said this many times.. I hate post game pressers of the losing team. You might say it's part of the game, fine. But what is anyone gaining from this? Feels like a firing squad.

Yes, you should have to answer to the sports media. But I dont think you should have to immediately go sit in front of Mics 5 minutes after losing such a huge game. Those two interviews were cringe-worthy and completely empty.

Maybe these super teams are showing their bench deficiencies. Too much salary cap put on few players. If one goes down (or two), that's it.

You could argue that when you remove Kyrie, and you have a hobbled James Harden, that Brooklyn team with Durant isn't all that great.

I agree. And Durant was an inch away from conference finals anyway

Kinda just laughed at that KD shot, it was in the right guys hands but come on dude u got plenty of time to get a better shot. Kyrie didnt play cause he was protesting June 19 or 20th or whatever the hell it is. Hey said a holiday isn't enough they want blood.
Gonna be a some war games in these next few weeks and I guess go Sun's. Have to pull for somebody, was hoping for a yellowstone start soon so I can basketball cleanse before we get back started soon for fall sports. Getting summer time can't give up summer fun for nba summer league.

give me a Hawks win tomorrow and assuming Kawhi is done for the year and the Clippers can't win without him, I can live with whoever wins it all.

Rooting for Phoenix at this point, though Crowder makes that very difficult.

Harden wasn’t nearly himself. It seems like Irving is always hurt or something. I think they’d be better off trading him for some nice pieces to go around KD and Harden.

Pretty sure Kyrie missed the game and the previous two because of an ankle injury from Game 4. Protesting??? Do you just enjoyed making **** up?

To be fair, Kyrie misses a lot of games for “personal and family reasons”, it’s really not out of the scope of possibility for him. He couldn’t care less about winning.

I’m sure the crutches and walking boot he was on after the game were props. Keep on believing that crap. I personally don’t like him but some will use anything to fit their agenda
