Middleton dagger!

Yeah that might be it.

3 things are certain in this world; death, taxes, and a CP3 led team choking when it matters most.
TP...that made me laugh

What a great game. I’ve enjoyed these finals.
Quoting Nick from the now locked Ime thread:

At some point you have to blame the performance on the court on the players on the court. Every loss is not the coach's fault and every win isn't because of the players.

Hell of a play call by Monty. Booker just couldn't knock it down.

It’s awesome to see a defensively oriented team win in this era of uber-offenses.

This will be one of the most well-deserved finals MVP awards I’ve ever seen.  Incredible series for Giannis.

Feel really happy for Milwaukee. It's such a crap city, a small market, devoid of championships for decades and they got a piece of coal at #16 in the draft, hardened it, turned it into the Hope Diamond and now are World Champs. Good for them.

He hasn't been an above-average 3PT shooter since 17-18 and has been woeful from deep in the Finals and the WCF. Not really surprised he missed, Bridges or Crowder are significantly better shooters

Credit to Milwaukee and their leadership. They went out and got the things they needed to help Giannis win in Jrue, Tucker, and Portis.

And credit to Giannis for staying. Love to see a star of his caliber stay in a small market team like Milwaukee.

I’m so happy for Giannis. He’s literally the anti-Lebron. Shows humility all the time. Stays with his original team that drafted him. And just balls out and wills his team to a championship on an injured knee. What a story. 50 pt game in a clinching game. Just wow.

They built a hell of a team.

50 points, 25 shots. Lordy that's a good game, let alone for a championship closeout

It is nice to see a superstar rewarded for remaining loyal to his small market team.
