Oh my God that was a unapologetic travel on Giannis. How is that not called? Am I taking crazy pills?

Of course no replay.

Lol here it is. You have to be kidding me. He drags his left foot across the floor.

NBA: fans are losing interest... what do we do?

Also the NBA: tilt the officiating and call everything. (except for the most clear traveling call in Finals history against the best player in the series)

Booker going Klay Thompson, who he sort of reminds of.  For Phoenix, they need CP3 to take his head out of his ass and for Booker to keep the vibes going without fouling out.  Bucks just gotta shoot better and get on the glass better.  Freak needs to go beast mode inside the lane.  Push some folks around.

Nah. He's better than Klay ever was. Klay never dropped 38 without hitting a 3. He's a decent Kobe comp - and that might be getting played out but it's fairly accurate. So many shots tonight falling down or with a hand in his face.

TF is this hot take? I'm normally with you on basketball stuff but this is disrespectful.

Uhm..... okay.

I just don't understand how he reminds you of Klay. Klay is like the GOAT 3 and D. Booker is a decent defender but much more of a well-rounded scoring threat and pretty decent option for running the offense at times. Klay never shouldered an offensive load like this or ever put on a clinic going to the basket or hitting from midrange.

What is disrespectful? Saying he reminds me of Kobe? The entire fucking basketball world has been saying that all playoffs. What planet do some of you live on?

Or wait... is it the part where I said Booker is better than Klay? Are y'all serious? Please tell me you're kidding. Booker had a 40 point triple double in the WCF.

Disrespectful to Klay, who was one of the best 2-way players in the league while also being a flame thrower on offense. I'm team fuck Kobe, so say whatever you want about that dude.

Klay is or at least was a great player. He was never as good as Booker is right now. I'm not sure how that's a "hot take".

Mainly in their variability or streakiness on offense.  When they get in the zone, there are few like them in shooting and scoring the basketball. 

And no Booker is not better than Klay ever was, he's never been as good as Klay at Klay's peak.  And he's not really like Kobe either.  

Whoa..... Booker got a superstar non-call there.

Van Gundy and Mark Jackson need to be retired as announcers...

100%.  I can't stand these guys.  Not only do they add nothing, they take away from the game watching experience.  Especially Gundy.  Kills me.

Klay's defense and efficiency have him ahead of Devin Booker.

It's a hot take b/c it's just wrong.

Fair enough. I think I'm prisoner of the moment. He does remind me of Kobe, though. That's just my take and isn't debatable.

I’m never going to have to buy salt again if Milwaukee wins this series.

I'll be a little salty if they win. Grand scheme of things I don't care that much. Certainly not as much as last year where I almost refused to watch any of the Finals because of the Lakers. 

Saltiness has degrees.
