Official 2020-21 NBA Finals - Milwaukee Bucks win the NBA Championship!

Jalen Hoard with garbage minutes last night for OK City. On a 2-way contract there. Played 20+ minutes in a blowout loss and scored 10 pts, got 6 boards. I still think he doesn't offer much to the NBA and should go play in France and be a 2nd or 3rd option
 
In 2019, AJ Slaughter was the highest paid player in the top French league. He made about $300K. The average player makes $80-200K. A two way contract in the NBA makes more and could lead to getting a full one.
 
Hawks just had a 46 point 3rd quarter going an NBA record 11/11 from deep.

Isaiah Thomas has 8 points for the Pels.

Paul Pierce got fired from ESPN.
 
I feel like we're discriminating against poker players here.
 
All I know is he had strippers at his home. Is that really a fireable offense?
 
Celtics committing some very hard fouls tonight. Guess they’re upset about the season sweep.
 
The Liberty Bell unis are silly.

Jeopardy is a about to start.
 
Kawhi to Miami next year? Miami will have the space, and the rumors are rumbling
 
He went through all that trouble to get to LA with PG.
 
Great forearm shove by Steph to get that offensive rebound and shot.

Or he wanted to get with Doc and they shoved him out the door a year later. Miami is going to pay Bam and Jimmy Butler roughly the same salary that the Clippers are gonna pay Playoff P and Marcus Morris the next 4 years. Which duo do you join?

2 years ago PG13 and Kawhi with that rest of the roster looked like it was good for a championship or 3. The Nets changed that equation. Oh and Paul George not being mentally strong enough to make it through the bubble without having depression issues and a 4-16 Game 7. Lastly, Kawhi left Popovich and the Spurs then left the Raptors after winning a 'Ship. Kawhi is gonna do what's best for Kawhi.

Man the Suns are 23-5 over the last 2 months and have a big matchup with the Jazz. They don’t seem like real contenders for a bunch of reasons but that 1 year CP3 turnaround is legit AF.

Realize that he doesn't have the rings, but CP3 turns NBA teams around like few people in the history of the league.

The year before CP3 went to New Orleans, they went 18-64. In Paul's rookie year, they improved by 20 games, and the Hornets (now Pelicans) were 58 games over .500 in his 6 years there. The year after CP3 left, the New Orleans won 21 games.

The year before CP3 joined the Clippers, they went 32-50. In Paul's first season in LA, the Clips went 40-26 (shortened season), and won 50 plus games each year, he was with LAC after the first year.

The year before CP3 joined the Rockets, they went were good (55-27). Really hard to improve on 55 wins. In CP3's first year in Houston, they went 65-17. The Rockets have had some great teams, but that was the franchise best record by 9 games.

Last year, with the loss of Paul George and Westbrook, the common thinking was that OKC was going in the tank, and that CP3 would be dealt as Thunder went into rebuild mode. That roster with CP3 and little else (other than CP3, OKC's leading scorers were Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and Dennis Schroeder), the Thunder somehow went 44-28, and pushed Houston with Harden and Westbrook to 7 games. With CP3 gone, OKC has collapsed as they are currently are 20-30.

Then, this year, the Suns, a team that has not had a winning season since 2014 and that went 34-39 last year, added CP3 and is now sitting a top the NBA at 35-14.

Just crazy what a massive difference CP3 has made at each stop along the way.
 
Add in that some of those teammates like SGA and Schroeder seem to have become better players after playing with CP3.

The Spurs with another awful loss to a team without key starters. Got destroyed in the 3rd by the Nuggets without Jamal Murray. In the last few weeks, they've lost to the Hornets without Zeller, the Clippers without Pat Bev and Ibaka, the Clippers without Kawhi, the Kings without Bagley, the Hawks without JC, the Pacers without Sabonis, the Cavs without Allen and Nance, Jr. Dropped from 6th to 9th over that stretch.
 
One the most amazing stats is CP3 is shooting 93% on FTs and is 6th in the league.
