Just a great basketball game. Kevin played 53 minutes and scored 48 points while. Giannis played 50 minutes and scored 40 points. Probably an instant classic of sorts as the Bucks prevailed 115-111 in overtime on the road in a Game 7.
Giannis went 8-14 from the free throw line and maybe crossed a line of sorts in this game as far as winning a ring.
Neither star got much from their respective benches. Brooklyn got nary a point from their bench while the Bucks got nine points from their non-starters.
Milwaukee was the better team in the end with the additions of Jrue Holiday and PJ Tucker.
We now have Milwaukee, the LA Clippers, the Phoenix Suns, and the winner of Philly versus Atlanta in our Final Four.
This should be fun and an interesting departure with some new teams and new stars showing their stuff to the basketball world.
Tough exit for Kevin Durant, but he played every minute and gave what he had. He just didn’t get enough help which is ironic.
But as an NBA fan….I’m excited to see which star and which team fills the LeBron lane.
