Really glad to see a small Market team win. Giannis stuck it out with the Bucks and was rewarded. He’s a class act.
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.

Giannis just cemented himself as a first ballot, Hall of Famer.....at 26 years old.

Super happy for Giannis and the Bucks.  Great example for the league.

Lol that people were calling Giannis “Robin” two weeks ago.  Absolute Alpha performance.

Yep.  He could retire tomorrow and still be in the Pantheon.

I really wanted the Suns to win, but Giannis just would not be denied.

and the odds that CP or AD will be injured in the playoffs is high

That sure looks like way more than 65,000 outside the arena. Might be close to 200K by night's end

Yeah, I worry about this, too. That said, he seems to also be looking for longer term money if he's going to turn down $44 Million, which I don't think LAL will be able to swing either through a trade or getting him the kind of money he'll be looking for to opt out of that much money.

As much as I'm on the fence about Paul, would love to see him in Boston, though likely not at the kind of money and contract length he's seeking.

Giannis with the gentle gentle sweep.
