KNICKS. SPURS. 1999 REMATCH.
THE NBA FINALS ARE OFFICIALLY SET!
🍿 New York returns to NBA Finals for the first time since 1999
🍿 San Antonio returns to NBA Finals for the first time since 2014
Game 1: Wednesday, June 3 at 8:30pm/et on ABC
Those saying Kevin Durant “quit on his team in the middle of the playoffs” are clueless.
KD played in 78 of 82 games this season… at 37-years-old.
He suffered an unlucky knee injury in practice and missed Game 1.
He played through injury, and suffered ANOTHER unlucky injury to his ankle in Game 2, which he played through.
This injury usually sidelines players 2+ weeks… KD is going through around-the-clock treatment. That’s why he’s not on the bench.
The Rockets aren’t as good without KD. That’s why they’re down 3-0.
Don’t buy into online narratives. KD just had bad luck, and is still the main reason the Rockets were a top 5 seed this season in the first place.
Kevin Durant missed two clutch free throws, VJ Edgecombe scores and cuts the lead to 5. Then KD knocks down a three and pulls out the easy money sniper rifle 😂🤣
