We need for them to be so thoroughly cooked that they accept Herro, Robinson, and Jovic for KD.

Broiled.

Burnt to a crisp.

Kiwi should've stayed home... But Kyrie, made for this time, one of my biggest basketball regrets will be him not being a decent human in Brooklyn. That team could've been tough

Clippers have held the Mavs under 100 pts twice. Mavs are lucky to win a game

Hes giving it his all though, can't blame him, his body is just never fully available. I think Philly has played this the wrong way, they need to use the Miami heat Playbook, rest him often, rest in big games, let him only play 50% of the regular season, and keep him fresh for the playoffs. MVP's are no reason to force him into early retirement.

What's going on with Buddy Hield? He has been barely used in this series? They need that third scorer

Insane that Bam gets the "dirty" label, with players like Embiid and Draymond in the league.

At least Draymond is severely untalented and is basically just an high paid enforcer. Embiid is far and away the 2nd best big in the league. So his behavior is even more disgusting and classless.

Lakers are "cooked" and I absolutely love it.

Denver is legitimately scary though.

It's up to him.

He wants a championship and even if it's just a slight chance, it's one more chance he'd have vs shutting it down for next year. I would expect he's been told the negatives of continuing to play these playoffs and he's good with that.

On a sidenote, Jimmy Butler did something similar in Minnestoa, he tore his meniscus while leading them to 3rd or 4th in the West at the time, he had the choice to get the meniscus repaired which would mean he couldn't come back that season and with that wouldn't make the playoffs for the first time in 14 seasons, Jimmy opted in taking out the meniscus to get back on the court in 6 weeks but also meant there was a high chance of him having knee issues in the future. Jimmy came back and helped Minnesota win a last game of the season against Denver (who Minnesota knocked out of the playoffs with that game) and for his play and sacrifice to make sure Minnesota finally got into the playoffs the owner wasn't willing to work with Butler to get him a max (yet had no issue giving Wiggins a max contract) so as you can see, Jimmy had a reason to be pissed at Minnesota ownership and with that did what he had to, to get the owner to trade him because he knew Thibodeau would never move him unless he absolutely had to.

These are players who have been working hard for years to try to win a championship, if it's important enough to the player, let him play or expect him to try to force his way out.
