Chris Paul and the Suns looking at the other SF games

 

[ZDwyr]

Would the Suns have a preferred match-up between the Clippers and Jazz? @elmo

Playing a dangerous game. KD should just tell him to sit it out, he should know.

 

[Bubz27]

KD should be fine without Harden. BPITW against Giannis who can't play the post-season and a bunch of midcarders? Light work for Durant.

 

[RobinLFC]

Best outcome from all these 2-2 ties would obviously be the Clippers and Nets gone. Suns vs Jazz, Bucks vs Philly (or ATL, also good).

Agreed

We match up better against the Jazz I feel and their players aren't as annoying as the Clippers. Really want to watch how Ayton deals with Gobert, his improvement this playoffs has been incredible.

Adam Silver and the refs disagree.

The refs heavily favored Bucks in the last game. They allowed Tucker/Middleton to play defense in Durant like it was the nineties.

Watch Durant shoot 30 FTs tonight.

 

[Revan]

Watch Durant shoot 30 FTs tonight.

He should have had at least another 5-10 last game.

 

[Stobzilla]

Well that is a horrid start. Putting in Harden is one of those things that I just scratch my head at.

 

[R'hllor]

So far a traffic con would be better in defence than Harden but he cant do much about it, dunno who is making those type of decisions.

 

[R'hllor]

"Wave your towel" is that some upgraded version of RM fans

 

[edcunited1878]

Should be a great 4th quarter!

 

[adexkola]

Coach Bud needs to be fired this off-season regardless of what happens with the Bucks

These offensive sets are horrible and it's costing them precious possession. This wasn't how they operated in the regular season.

 

[Desert Eagle]

2 point game with 40 seconds to go. Kd is a monster.

 

[edcunited1878]

45+ pt triple double by KD...full 48 minutes. Not over yet, but I'd foul Giannis

 

[edcunited1878]

Giannis mishandled the pass when on the low block...he's bricking it here.

 

[Peyroteo]

Kevin Durant... wow

 

[edcunited1878]

Jeff Green shot lights out while KD went nuclear. Nobody else could match KD or Green. Massive opportunity missed by Milwaukee. The lack of tempo and touches for Holiday and Middleton down the stretch was horrible.

 

[TheBest]

Best game of Durants career.

 

[Eddy_JukeZ]

One of the best playoff performances ever

KD was incredible

 

[Eddy_JukeZ]

The Bucks half-court offense is terrible to watch

If they went for CP3 over Jrue, they'd be my title favorites. Bad move in hindsight.

 

[edcunited1878]

They have a pure guard in Holiday to run the point. They can run a two man game with Middleton and Giannis. They can force James to defend, but the ball has to get out of Giannis's hands and it has to move. Cannot believe how stagnant the Bucks offense became, it's insanity what they were doing.

 

[adexkola]

Best game of Durants career.

Yeah I'm struggling to think of any better from his OKC days.

Classic "stand up and be counted" game.

 

[adexkola]

Knowing Jeff Green he won't do this again this season

I think it will go to 7, but Milwaukee dropped the fecking ball and it was apparent from the first quarter when they should have choked Brooklyn out then.

Totally, Green was an anomaly...but Bucks still should have overcome it!

Harden not sure how his body reacts between now and game 6, but if the Nets have to duplicate tonight's effort again, then it's really hard to see as you mentioned.

 

[elmo]

That's the best playoff performance in the last decade.

 

[ZDwyr]

Bucks in the 2nd half were awful. It was like watching a Scott Brooks coached OKC team. Just iso after iso. Bud probably has to go.

Amazing Durant performance.

 

[adexkola]

That's the best playoff performance in the last decade.

The decade that started last year?

If you're looking at the last 10 years, then you are incorrect.

 

[TheBest]

Its just amazing to watch the best players give it their all. Reminds me of that Lebron 50 points against the Kd warriors.

 

[Revan]

49-17-10-3-2, shooting 16 out of 23, 20 in the last quarter, including that 3 pointer. First ever player to go 45+/15+/10+.

By far the best playoff performance this season and one of the best I can remember. Arguably the best ever performance from KD.

 

[Sarni]

Unbelievable bottle job by Bucks here. Nets will get healthier now, they may take it to Game 7 there but I don't fancy them there. They've been so awful for most of the series that I don't think they even deserve to progress anyway.

 

[RobinLFC]

Debatable but certainly up there yeah.

LeBron against Boston in Game 6 was better imo when the Heat won their first title. I'd place it alongside Durant himself in the 2018 Finals and Klay in Game 6 in that Thunder series - those are the first ones that come to mind.

They would have been swept if Nets were healthy.

LeBron game 1 against the Warriors was insane.

 

[Sarni]

Yeah max 5 games.

 

[Zen]

Unreal. Utterly unreal performance. Barring a few wild coaching decisions, the Bucks didn’t throw it away... KD just won it.
