9-25 is isn't good either. He played good in the 2nd half but 9-25 is a really poor shooting night
But, in the clutch.....he made the game winning shot so there's that.

Now if only Philly can lose tomorrow, I'll be satisfied with whoever win the title

Rooting for Suns vs Bucks now but if the 76ers/Hawks made it I wouldn’t mind either of those teams as well
Pretty sure the Suns but the Finals I'd like to see is the Clippers vs the Sixers.

Dude, hitting the game winning shot doesn't change the fact that he played bad the rest of the game.

It means he made up for it.

Wow what a series. Every KD OT shot looked tired. That man gave all. No bench points from the Nets. I’m bummed because I never got a true test of my hypothesis that as a complete basketball team that the Nets were better constructed before the Harden trade. Injuries make this a “no play” so to speak. We’ll never really know. I would have preferred a team like the Nets, if and when they go down, it be because the squad with the Big 3 was bested by somebody. Maybe next year we will see that.

It was on him though. The play wasn't for him. Brooklyn blew it up. But he has to know time and situation there. It's 2.1 on the shot clock. You just can't hold the ball. When the option to Giannis isn't there, you have to know its on you to shoot. He fucked up. It didn't cost them ultimately. But he fucked up.

Nah.

You know who messed up?

Bud.

You can’t have him in that position to get the ball at that spot. Just a horrendous play call.

He might be the slowest player in the league. If he gets picked up by the defense, there is no chance in hell he gets separation to get a shot off.

I believe he knew he had to do something, just does not have the ability to make that play.

Bad coaching.

How the hell did the Bucks win that game? They ran total dogshit offense for 95% of the OT, not even getting the ball into the paint until 1:32 left in OT.

If Joe Harris, who completely forgot how to shoot this series, hit that shot, they would have finished them. Somehow the Nets let them hang around

Feel like Durant was within maybe 1/4 inch of being the single greatest playoff series performance of all time

It sucks that he was so tired that he literally had nothing left and took that ugly last shot with to end the series.

Nash should have called a timeout to give him at least a nanosecond of a breather.

No, you just said Middleton wasn't very good.....and he hit the game winning shot tonight, LOL.

Pretty sure I never said he wasn't very good. I likely criticize him for his inconsistent play in the playoffs. Pull up the quote where I said he isn't a good player or shut up
