@85 I railed against that format for years. It meant that in a close series only one team had a chance to close it out at home. Glad they finally fixed that.

@83 oh, you’re talking about the finals against the rockets. Sorry, I was talking about the ECF against the Pacers. (I was writing in context of today’s ECF game 5, sorry to not be clear)

@83

Maybe so, but the 2-3-2 format in the NBA finals meant both games 6 and 7 were road games.

The knicks lost game 5, courtesy of Reggie Miller’s 25 pt 4th quarter in front of spike lee in the ECF. They licked their wounds, went back to Indiana and won game 6, then returned to MSG to close out the series.

The Bucks must feel like the Knicks did after game 5 in 1994. Up 2 in the series, then down 3-2 after the home loss in game 5. Will they respond? It’s been a good playoffs this year, I hope this series goes 7.

Kawhi is really something else, what an impactful player on both ends. I hope he stays healthy if they get to the finals. The Bucks role players are getting outplayed by the Raptors, and that’s a big big issue for the Bucks. They can’t win if those guys are non threats and the Raptors can collapse on Giannis every possession.

his peak was a very good #2 option with a bad basketball IQ masquerading as a #1 option.

Pretty much, and that’s why his career is going to be largely forgotten.

I still think of him mainly as a defensive force, but, slowly got used to him being able to shoot, but, kawhi running their whole offense, every possesion, is anazing…

at the beginning of the series I thought the bucks had the best player…
