Comment on [Game Thread] 17 DEC 2024 - Bucks vs Thunder - NBA Cup Final
rezz@lemmy.world 5 days agoI simply don’t see the Bucks getting out coached or out “legged” this game. Their coaching and age collapses at the same moment in a game where Thunder youth and coaching shine.

Yeah, I thought OKC matched up well against the Bucks and was surprised they were only 4.5 favourites on the point spread. I also thought the stakes were higher for the Bucks than Thunder in terms of how they’re viewed after this game - win or lose - given the differing directions of the 2 teams you mentioned (reaching prime vs getting old).
Khris Middleton Out NBA Cup Final This is really unfortunate. I hope Khris is okay but I also feel like this waters down the game - how much it represents the Bucks’ strength, the competitiveness and entertainment of the game perhaps. I hope Giannis gets 40 and the Thunder win in a close game XD!
