walk this Earth an honest man

@SheaSerrano Walked through Deer District last night and seeing this felt good and right.

[Kellen @Kellen_Jonathan]

@KevinOConnorNBA Selective stats to prop up Jokic. He has been inconsistent as a playmaker and shotmaker, missed crucial FTs, losing his cool, and bad on defense.

His supporting cast has had some bad moments but played much better than their reputation throughout the playoffs.

[Kellen @Kellen_Jonathan]

@esidery LMAO. Bam would have to be in the trade and the Heat would have to have about 8 more FRPs to offer.

[Kellen @Kellen_Jonathan]

@YeahYeahOkBro All it takes is the Cavs staying injured and 5-8 more injuries to the best players on an ECF opponent and a Finals opponent and the Pacers staying healthy and yeah they really have a chance in those circumstances.

[Kellen @Kellen_Jonathan]

@BucksFilmRoom They didn't win a championship. The haven't beaten any healthy teams in the playoffs. They are good. Not very good. They are also incredibly annoying and are doing the opposite of apologizing.

[Kellen @Kellen_Jonathan]

@KevinOConnorNBA 96 feet from the Nuggets bucket, and the Nuggets looked a little disorganized.

[Kellen @Kellen_Jonathan]

@mke_buckle Rockets and OKC. I prefer the Rockets package.

Amen, Sengun, Cam Whitmore, Jock Landale + Suns 2027 FRP, Rockets 2030 FRP, 2 of their 1st rd swaps, and some 2nd rd picks.

That leaves them Giannis, Jabari, Tari, Dillon Brooks, Jalen Green, FVV, Reed, and plenty of picks.

@itsjwills Bucks chose less annual money instead of one less year for a reason

[Kellen @Kellen_Jonathan]

@3c_dc The team that stole the game ball from a champion who set his career high in points was definitely being humble and not acting out of pathetic spite.

[Kellen @Kellen_Jonathan]

@iamrahstradamus Replace KD which is obvious with Jokic and you have my take.

[Kellen @Kellen_Jonathan]

@fmaddenNBA Do you think Doc should base his playoff rotations on this?

For example, Rollins as PG with Giannis on the bench. Prioritize pairing Sims with Giannis if he is back to 100% and let Brook and BP roll together?

Is Giannis, Sims, KPJ, GTJ, and AJ Green the Bucks lineup of death?

[Kellen @Kellen_Jonathan]

@jasondwelsch @Hrmfch13 @BarstoolBigCat I lost $300 in bracket winnings because Duke lost but the answer is "make your free throws" and "draw up an effective inbound play" not "the refs screwed Duke." LMAO.

[Kellen @Kellen_Jonathan]

@itsjwills The benefit was getting under the second apron, so maybe that pays dividends in the future. But if Dame isn't back for playoffs it sure would be nice having Khris. Or put another way, I would rather have a 50% chance of creaky Khash in the playoffs than a 100% chance of Kuz.

[Kellen @Kellen_Jonathan]

@AndrewDBailey This happens to Giannis all the time and caused his injury in the 2023 playoffs. IMO it is a dirty and unsportsmanlike play. Similar to Harden's hook where the goal is to get fouled not to score, here the goal is to draw a foul rather than to defend.

[Kellen @Kellen_Jonathan]

@itsjwills The loss of both backup bigs is a problem but also an opportunity. AJax back to the starting lineup. Kuzma to bench. Stagger Brook and Giannis with Kuzma at the 4. More Dame/Giannis 2 man game. Experiment and figure out the best group to play with Giannis at the 5.

[Kellen @Kellen_Jonathan]

@KevinPawell23 @BookOfEli_NFL Yep. Each team kicked a FG in OT.

[Kellen @Kellen_Jonathan]

@KevinPawell23 @BookOfEli_NFL Was also at that game. It was one of the coldest Lambeau games I have gone to and maybe the coldest. Fun comeback and disappointing they couldn't win.

[Kellen @Kellen_Jonathan]

@itsjwills No notes

[Kellen @Kellen_Jonathan]

@PondoKnowsBest @Bonnaroo If you like rock music don't miss MJ Lenderman.

[Kellen @Kellen_Jonathan]

@zachkruse2 Love needs to throw a more accurate ball especially on the Reed play.

[Kellen @Kellen_Jonathan]

@dgv1133 @TheDunkCentral Making up a fake expert isn't a source.

Jokic can't play all 5 positions LMAO. Definitely not on defense. Giannis guards all 5 positions and routinely shuts down elite wings and guards. I'm chuckling at the idea of Jokic guarding anyone on the perimeter. He's a traffic cone.
