After this season, OKC should give up all their picks to acquire 2 time NBA champion Bobby Portis for the toughness, leadership, and rebounding.

You joke but I honestly think we need to look into trading them Brook in the offseason. They got the cap, need and disposable picks

Round 1 they beat Kings, Round 2 they get Clippers with injured Kawhi, WCF Jokic gets injured.

Excellent coaching by Doc, OKC need a solution.

I do think this is a particularly bad matchup for OKC and good matchup for the Bucks. OKC needed Chet to shoot the ball really well to try to play Brook off the court and then just attack the basket. But he wasn't having that kinda night and the Bucks did a really good job of cutting off driving lanes otherwise.

Seems like we have too much strength in the paint for OKC to handle.

Denver I think is a dead even matchup and would be a close series.

Boston is just a different animal. I don’t think anyone has an answer to the problems they present.

This is the third TV game he's done. The first and this one he was good. The second one he was stumbling for some reason. Misidentified players, got other stuff wrong. But overall yes he's much better than Lisa

He has a terrible habit of making tiny errors that only Bucks nerds would notice. You get over it quickly but always notice it. Better with time I'd assume

Of course he's a candidate.

5 or 6 guys can be considered candidates.

Denver is significantly better than Boston imo.

Also, not directed at you, how could anyone vote Shai as MVP?

Jokic is waaaaaay better than Shai. So is Giannis.

and I don't feel like one great or one bad game should elevate or lower someone's chances.

If SGA wins MVP he deserves it. Instead of saying "There is no way he should be MVP after a game like that" we should say "We just held the potential MVP to............and beat his team."
