    Man if Dame, CJ, Nurkic, and Rodney stayed together and elevated their game they could’ve went to the final or at least the WCF again. That was his best chance to win a ring. Still a good player, but getting past his prime. One of my all time favorites though for sure. Definitely a HOFer

    Both Kevin Durant And Damien Lillard came back too early when their body was not playoff ready. The body needs to be healthy enough to adjust to playoff intensity and his body gave up on him. With modern technology he can make a recover and the body can adapt if given the right circumstances. His main focus now should not be coming back but focused on recovery from his injury. He tried to help his team, but it was too early for him to come back without preparing his body to come back.

    Bucks are done for a decade at least. The only way they bounce back as a franchise is if they trade Giannis (which they're gonna have to, and he won't wanna be here anyway so…) and get a bazillion first round picks. The Bucks don't control their first round picks until 2031 and second round picks are even worse, because… our front office has been trash for awhile now. They would then need those bazillion picks to hit, with a couple big hits in the mix. Our franchise is cooked.

    We'll always have 2021!!

    Yeah…I think he's done done. He's not going to retire because…get that money. I believe it's just over.

    As a Blazer fan I got mixed feelings here. On one hand, I hate seeing Dame hurt. On the other hand, those 2028-30 Bucks picks are lookin juicey.

    Giannis been gone he just waited to see if past his prime dame could help.him bri g home another chip b4 he left

    JJ Redick could have at least given Jarred Vanderbilt, Jordan Goodwin, and Gabe Vincent some minutes in the second half. The only value in having Jaxson Hayes in the game is the 6 fouls he can use to 'muck things up'.

    So he’ll be approaching 36 coming off an Achilles injury…man Dame’s a dawg, but this might signal the twilight of his career. Hate to see it

    Why was Chiney tapping Perk like she needed to tell him something but then said no go ahead and still kept tapping him while he was talking 😂

    Looks like this is it for Damian Lillard. A torn Achilles at 34 years old? He relies so much on explosiveness…and it's almost impossible to fully get back after this kind of injury. Plus, he’s still owed over $112 million for the next two seasons, with a $58.5 million player option for 2026–27. That contract is going to crush the Bucks’ flexibility to sign anyone else. If I’m Giannis, I’m saying "Hasta la vista" to the Milwaukee organization. That ship is going down fast.

    Yet another Shams segment; choppy, stutter, enthusiastic, devoid of confidence, lack, cluster and anything but entertaining
