2024 NBA Season

[Yaunfitda]

What an exciting series between Bucks vs Nets.
Khris Middleton was on fire. I believe, in game 7 it will be even more exciting.

Yes, it was a playoff career high for Khris, he moves with confident in this game, and that three point with a foul to booth against Harden? Crazy.

I was looking the game stats and I realized, the Bucks had 51 rebounds, 15 of which were offensive and they also had 6 blocks.

They really played good defense overall, forcing Durant to crucial turnovers.

I believe the Bucks played with a lot of desire and determination to not lose the game.

Exactly, now they force a game seven, they need to keep up the phase to upset the Nets.

Yes, they are in the zone defensively.
I never thought Tucker could defend Durant that way. They even discuss how they move while the game is on, which is funny. Sportsmanship is intact and I hope they can continue this kind of game without the need to fight with their fists or headbutts.
You could not see the effect of what Tucker did on the stat sheet but yet if he wasn't there Bucks might have already fallen in Game 4.
What did the Nets lack to lose the game? Joe Harris. MIA with outside shots.

Durant even says that Tucker is too small for him, but it was a different game 6. Tucker just stick it up to Durant and not over extending which he did in the last previous game. And there was the intensity that was lacking during the last game which they could have won but unfortunately, they allow the Nets to come back.

Joe Harris shot was always contested, that's why he had a different time trying to find his range. Bucks make it very uncomfortable for him, and then he gets frustrated, lose his concentration then committing useless fouls.

You are right, but since both are really performing consistently well in the series, you'll have to take a high player props.

Just like the total points per player.

Durant, over/under 35.5
Giannis over/under 33.5.

Do you think it's a great idea to take the over?

Both went Under, KD only got 32 while  Giannis only have 30,

Bucks really dominates the Nets in this entire game, the help that KD needs from his teammate is not there, Jeff Green offense was missing

He have a big part of that win from  Game 5, and Even Shamet he only have 2points playing with 22 minuts, not the stat that you'll going to like since they are trying to close the series.

Moving forward, we will see a do or die game 7 for sure we will see a much tougher competition between this 2 East super teams.

Jeff Green was missing easy shots, he had like 2 or 3 near the rim, but he can't convert it. Same with Shamet and Harris, the Bucks has well defended them this time.

KD too is committing errors, so we can attribute that to the Bucks defense as well. P.J Tucker doing good and challenge him every shot, even fighting screens. I think he has 4 fouls containing Durant. That's already an accomplished limiting KD to 32 points. Giannis and Middleton providing the score for them.

The bucks just did the right thing, they are aggressive and they are not settling to 3 point shots. This series is now very exciting, first game 7 in the 2nd round and we will know if the 2 games tomorrow will go to game 7. Harden seemed to be alright, he has a good start but was not enough to help his team to win.

[akirasendo17]

Kevin Durant has done what he could but, the bucks are on a mission to take the series to game 7, harden scoring is no where to be found in-game 6, i think he is still inured, this is what I'm talking about that if you want to slow Giannis you have to stop Middleton and tucker, but the person that is notable in this game is Lopez, he finally uses he's length if you will see who have the height advantage in this series its the bucks so they should take advantage of it.

KD played for every second in Game 5 and most of us already expected it that his performance on that Game will not be the same as Game 6. The fatigue got him and his performance got low.
The good thing though is that Harden is on a better shape right now compare to what he is on Game 5.

Giving one of the best offensive teams in the league just 89 points, the Bucks are really a good defensive team. The Bucks are now 7-0 this post season when Middleton is at least 40% FG shooting and 0-3 if he aren't. Game 7 on Sunday, I will go for Brooklyn with this and I might bet on some betting websites too with this .

I disagree with that, Harden is more effective in game 6 compared to game 5.

In game 6, he scored 16 points from 5-9 shooting. The missing piece was actually Jeff Green who only managed to score 5 points after a stellar performance in game 5 which he scored 27 points and a good 3 point shooting percentage.

Game 7 is a must to watch for all of us here because it is the most exciting series in the Eastern Conference. I expect to see this kind of game especially when the Milwaukee Bucks defeated their opponent in the first round with a 4-0, They are not playing around this year. This last game will be one of the best competitive matches in the NBA we will ever see. This is history in the making and I'm sure a lot of you guys will watch it live tomorrow night.

The odds for game7 are already out and it's even so I think Kyrie Irving will still not suit up on that game.

Yup, that would be exciting as I think the winner on that one will eventually become the NBA champion as they are the only team that has not been affected so badly with injury.

Have a gut feeling though that Joe Harris, Jeff Green, and James Harden three's will finally hit their mark and destroyed the Bucks just like what they did in games 1 and 2 hehe.

Yes, it's already out, the home team is the underdog with +1 and I like that because of the good odds. I think it will not be the same as game 6, it will be a close game and the Nets will take this win to advance in the Eastern Conference Finals. Hawks also have a big challenge tomorrow, they need to win at home so they'll advance, otherwise, the Sixers might beat them in game 7.

I would also bet on the Nets here, I will keep my eyes close and I will take the home team which is the favorite to win in the NBA Finals. Nets should start the 1st half with good energy so the Bucks will not be able to come back, but for sure, I will give free time for this as it's a game 7, we should not miss this.

Durant over 30+ that's a sure thing.
Harden over 30+ points, hopefully.

Yup, that would be exciting as I think the winner on that one will eventually become the NBA champion as they are the only team that has not been affected so badly with injury.

Not sure about that. There are a couple of good teams in the West as well. Clippers/Jazz or the Suns. Plus the risks of getting injured in the Finals series.
The Phoenix Suns had a pretty good run in the Playoffs and can potentially beat the Nets or Milwaukee in a 7 game series. I hope CP3 will be back soon in the WCF. I mean the team's on fire and looking to make a statement this post season.
However, If the Nets maintains their line up with Kyrie, Harden, and Durant without any injuries in the Finals will always have the higher percentage against any other teams remained in the Playoffs.

[Botnake]

Durant over 30+ that's a sure thing.
Harden over 30+ points, hopefully.

Durant might drop 30+ points but I doubt Harden can.

This is the last game of the series, they need to give the ball to their best player, and at this stage, it's Kevin Durant who is their best play.

If we still remember what happened in game 5, the ball was given to Durant most of the time and let him make plays to score or find an open man, and that was very effective as they were able to come back and win that game.

That's the best achievement of CP3 so far, and they will be back in the WCF as they are already waiting for the result fo the Clippers vs Jazz series.
It will be CP3's first Finals game if they will beat the winner the clippers/jazz, but still it's too long, we can never assume it will happen easily.

However, If the Nets maintains their line up with Kyrie, Harden, and Durant without any injuries in the Finals will always have the higher percentage against any other teams that remained in the Playoffs.

Like they always do, they are the favorites to win from the start the big 3 was form, so them playing together and available in the playoffs, that should be a team that is hard to beat. However, they need to beat the Bucks first.

2 Game 6 later. Hawks vs 76ers will start it early then next to it is Clippers vs Jazz. Both teams that will play in their home courts can finish this off to celebrate better before the Conference Finals.
But, the spreads tell differently and underdogs are Clippers and Hawks.
It's not easy to put bets as Hawks shocked us winning the game coming from a big lead of 76ers.
Clippers on the other hand had been consistently winning for the last 3 games with the Jazz even with Mitchell around. Whose side are you here?

If following homecourt advantages I'll go with Clippers, It will be more harder for them if they'll give Jazz another chance.

They need to repeat how they played last game 5 in order to win this series, putting Beverly and Mann gives them good defense, they should be there again to bring more pressure for the Jazz players, Playing without Kawhai, George needs to keep pushing his limits Clippers needs him to lead this team to win the series..

Bucks is not a bad team they are definitely a good team but the reality is that Nets is losing because they are lacking Irving which is an important player obviously and Harden is not 100% back neither, dude scored 5 points last time, and this time 16 points which is not bad but not what you expect from someone like him.

So long story short it is basically Bucks vs Durant right now and that's a challenge. Let's see what is going to happen in game 7, it is going to be a good challenge and the real thrill is that if Bucks gets eliminated (which is possible it is Durant after all) I am sure Bud is gone, they will get Carlisle if they can since he is out of Dallas. Also just the other day there was news about Dallas having problems at organization and Cuban said it was bullshit, yet after just few days Donnie and Rick both resigned, so I am sure it is not a bullshit story there is something wrong at Dallas.

[OgNasty]

Any thoughts on how many games Chris Paul will miss in the next round?  Will he miss any at all?  Can the Suns win without him?

I'd be curious on results of a poll about how many games Chris Paul will miss.  I haven't followed the news as much as I'd like, but it seems like he's been in quarantine for a while and was already vaccinated.  If even vaccinated people have to spend weeks out of work due to protocol, it sort of makes you wonder how effective the vaccine is in the first place and what the point of it is...

Just like what Paul George said post interview, he doesn't want to go back to Salt Lake for a game 7.

They need to repeat how they played last game 5 in order to win this series, putting Beverly and Mann gives them good defense, they should be there again to bring more pressure for the Jazz players, Playing without Kawhai, George needs to keep pushing his limits Clippers needs him to lead this team to win the series..

It's not only Paul George, but the whole team need that intensity for the whole 48 minutes, just like what they did the last game. They can't let the Jazz dictate the tempo in offense. Reggie Jackson need to score at least 20 more points to help George. Beverly and Mann to pressure Mitchell or Clarkson or whoever is hot on the Jazz.

They have a balanced attack on both offense and defense. I would say now that the Jazz is overrated for still doing the same thing over and over again. As long as Reggie Jackson, Morris, and George will continue to be consistent with their offense, there's no way the Jazz would win on the road.

The small ball play is very effective, they should stick with it.

If Conley will play, things could improve for the Jazz offense.
