Hondo!

Congrats Bucks, best team won.

[Bammer]

Bucks coach has huge bags under his eyes. Wow.

[ghost]

Congrats Bucks, best team won.

That was a good series. Hawks are gonna be fun to watch for a while.

[E.H. Ruddock]

I’m sick of all the “put an asterisk on the season” talk? Why? No team had an advantage over another. They all played under the same circumstances.

[ghost]

Yeah that's dumb. So every year where the mvp or consensus best player doesn't win gets an asterisk? And what a shock that the teams that consist of 2 stars and a bunch of garbage weren't deep enough to withstand injuries.

[ghost]

Granted I might be slightly biased.

[bada]

Rachel Nichols in trouble.

[elliseamos]

That's a shame.

[Bammer]

Well … as a TV host and sports analyst you have to admit that while very easy on the eyes, Maria Taylor fkn sucks at her job. She is terrible.

[ghost]

It'd be cool if the Bucks won tonight.

Hard to predict the series without knowing Giannis' health. Seems like a pretty good matchup.

Not going to complain about the Finals in July, Olympics in late July/early August, Summer League, and then the season starting 1.5 months later.

Giannis has been upgraded from doubtful to questionable.

[dad]

i'd try to upgrade if it were my first finals appearance too.

[spike]

Giannis has been upgraded from doubtful to questionable.

Starting.

[Monkey_Driven]

good to see Giannis looking like himself

[ghost]

The Bucks lost that game because they couldn't hit a layup to save their lives, didn't have an answer for CP3/Booker hunting mismatches on Lopez, and Holiday turned back into Bledsoe, but the disparity in foul calls/free throws from midway through the first all the way to garbage time (19-0 for the Suns or something like that) was...something. Doesn't matter anyway if you can't hit them, I guess.

[spike]

yeah we’ll see if the homer calls continue tomorrow. otherwise it should straighten out back in Milwaukee.

[Monkey_Driven]

It seemed like a normal game one, two teams just figuring each other out.
