If this actually happens and the NBA playoffs continue, I will be happier than a sissy with a BAG OF DICKS

Well I guess Chris Paul proved me wrong. He is built for this. Of course Yianni is only down one game if he wins the next game they will steal home court advantage away from the Suns.Something like, “some people are built for this some aren’t.“ They were talking about it right before he was down a point with less than two minutes to go and he was pushing the ball up the court. Was he going to be clutch? Nope. He turned the ball over.You know what I love? Chris Paul was talking shit before game 7 and he choked last night. Yea he had a great game. Triple double. But in the end he blew it.So LeBron didn’t get his way.The Lakers/Clippers dont want to continue but all the other teams do. If this is true and it actually holds up I will be somewhere in Atlantic City during Labor Day weekend.............NAKED!!!

Perfect time for him to quit the NBA and move to Africa. He can start a new league there.
That would be beautiful
what did he say before game 7?
This is the moment we all love in the nba. Down by one or two with seconds left in the game. Is he going to be like mike and Reggie and Larry Byrd? Nope. He turned the ball over.
Ho many rings does Chris Paul have? If the answer is zero, why the hell is he talking about being money in clutch situations? He don’t know bout that.
I just wanted to come here and say I'll be happy for Chris Paul if he wins it all, or Yianni. I'm pulling for Yianni but he has a lot of years to still win one. But being Greek I want to see him win now and multiple times. He is the Greek Freak. LOL.
Giannis is a good person, and he seems to be a great fit for Milwaukee. I just hope they put better players around him, because they have to go through Brooklyn next year, provided that team can stay healthy.
They're really good, but Phoenix is too, and their bench is deeper.

I didn't realize Yianni's team was as good as they are. But yea, they could add one more star to their team and if they are healthy maybe Durant and Harden and Irving are getting old. I hope so. I like when the young take over. I hate it when every year it's Magic or Bird. Kobe and Shaq. Golden State. Bulls. Lebron on whatever team he's on that particular year. I like Trea Young and Booker and all the other new guys who've made names for themselves this year.
Funny my nephew spells it Yianni not Giannis.

One win away from proving you wrong.
Tonight could be the night, my Suns bet before the Finals began could go up in smoke.
I remember the night before the finals at the state tournament in wrestling. You made it to the final day but are you going to place? Are you going to be all state? I didn’t think I would so I was pleasantly surprised. I wouldn’t have been heart broken had I not placed.
So I like to put myself in Chris Paul’s shoes. Hall of fame stud. Never won it all. Lebron and Durant are out. You’re up 2 games to 0 on Milwaukee. You go to bed that night imagining what it’s going to be like to finally win. You assume it’s going to happen. Suddenly Gianni wins 3 in a row. Chris Paul must be sick to his stomach. I’m sure he slept ok up 2 to 1 even 2 to 2 assuming they just have to win at home. Then they don’t. Gulp!
Im also fascinated with how hard it is to close out the series. I have a feeling with that and the fact the suns are going to play like there is no tomorrow, this could go 7. Wouldn’t surprise me. I love how Gianni doesn’t give up. Just keeps on keepin on.
Chris Paul should feel sick, he has been underwhelming since Game 3.
Think about how Gianni feels right now. Now think of how Chris Paul feels. Everyone I know loves Gianni and feels sorry for paul.
Theyre saying this win was a fluke. I might agree. Right place right time. Lebron was out, Durant and harden. I think Gianni is lucky to have won and now he has that monkey off his back. Of course he wants another ring but he will never suffer like Paul and Barkley
Giannis now has a confidence he never had before. His game grew in these playoffs like few players I've ever watched. Giannis is not the same player he was at the start of the season, he has gone full beast mode now. Watch out NBA.
I hope so. I also think his teammates will now have more confidence next year. And maybe someone good who's up for free agency will want to join them. Like Chris Paul.
Those two games Gianni sat out and his team won anyways against the Hawks had to boost their confidence.
But remember, the two best teams went down with injuries. The Nets and the Lakers. They'll be stronger next year. Maybe Golden State will get back to their winning ways. Poor Suns. They probably won't be back in the finals again next year. But then again what do I know?
I like it that Gianni has 2 or 3 other bigs. I believe this is a winning formula for a small market team. A couple of good guards and a back court that will challenge anyone who gets in the paint.
Compare this year to the years Lebron was in the finals but his team wasn't playing well and he couldn't take over games. Is it fair to blame Lebron for his teammates not stepping up? I blame him a little. Remember Lebron got cramps in the finals? Gianni doesn't even look tired at the end when he's slam dunking the nail in the coffin. To be the GOAT you have to be able to take over games. That's why I laugh when kids say Lebron is the GOAT. They don't realize how dominating Jordan was. You have to see it to understand. 3 straight years he won. Then he took a break, came back and won three straight years again. Lebron had to go to other teams to win. The only championship I give him credit for is the one in Cleveland. But then they got lucky when Draymon Green got suspended for being an idiot. He cost the Warriors a championship.
To be down 2 games to nothing and come back to win 4 in a row. Talk about not giving up. I told my dad that if Gianni wins his two home games the pressure sort of goes on to the Suns because they just lost 2 in a row and got to win at home.
