    It's just two games, but again, most Bucks seem to play a lot better with Giannis not on the floor. I'm not sure what the implications are. They are probably afraid if they cut his usage he won't re-sign with them.

    I think the Bucks/Suns match up is a really fun one. We'll see how healthy Giannis is, he's the difference maker in my opinion. If Giannis can put up big numbers then I give the edge to the Bucks but if he struggles then the Suns have the advantage.

    Do the Hawks sign Nate to a long term deal to head coach their team?

    Yeah i agree. Should have been more harsh. 5 games is what i was thinking. That is enough to cost him enough money that he will feel it.
    By the way that very easily could have turned into malice in the palace. Couple guys reciprocate and it's on.

    Two non glamour cities, no super teams. Neither has won in forever.

    Do you pay John Collins a max contract?

    Man! I don't think so. He's good , but his game doesn't fit with Trae Young. Young and Capella were the team's 1-2 punch during the regular season. Young ignored Collins quite a bit. I think the Hawks should see what's out there for Collins. I think Collins would be perfect in PDX, but don't know what we'd have to trade for him.

    No. You trade him to the Blazers for Harry Giles.

    Thank God . The Super Team's and Big Markets can EAT IT!! Their Media too. I will watch this Finals. I Boycott every finals that has any team from LA , Boston, or Super Team. Unless our Boyz are in it against one from the East.
