Suns offseason should consist of the following...

Booker being mandated to team-building activities (eg trust falls) with his teammates... and they should let him fall a few times

Ayton should be encouraged to join a gang or take up MMA to toughen up - he plays too soft for his size

Paul should sit in an ice bath from now until next season tips off

Suns should try to acquire either Lauri (Chi) or KP as they need size and better outside shooting from someone over 6'6"

Monty should receive a contract extension as he is the perfect coach for this team

Same here, he was awesome, very enjoyable finals series to watch too

he's really easy to root for.

Nice to see a non-super team win. Obviously they have some fantastic players and Giannis is truly a freak but they built the old fashioned way... adding pieces and being patient. Didnt fire the coach after last year's disappointment. Stuck with the core guys... I really appreciate this.

I was rooting for PHX, but have to admit, I'm looking forward to listen to Nets fans whine all summer over the Bucks win (I've heard plenty about how it was stolen from them with a 'dirty' play taking out Kyrie).

Congrats Milwaukee!

Fuck Brooklyn. I was glad to see 2 fresh teams and players battle it out in finals.

Agree w all of the comments above congratulating the Bucks and also re Giannis

Yet again I was horribly wrong thinking the move for Jrue was unwise (cost too much). He was critical even if the third option

Bucks actually have several good dudes to root for

Congrats to Portia too!

Always... always remember: Less is less. More is more. More is better and twice as much is good too. Not enough is bad, and too much is never enough except when it's just about right. - The Tick

Was reading that the Nets are already the favorite to win it all next season. I expect to receive 95% of my basketball pleasure from the success of our New York Knicks, and the remainder from the fail of the Brooklyn Super Schmucks. Though I imagine i could borrow a percentage point or two towards the early elimination of the Los Angeles Labronnas or any drama coming from the Douchezingis camp.

I hope Judas Porzingis gets traded, 'cause I really sympathize with Luka and the Mavs team otherwise.

I want to like Luka, but dude whines so much...

Porzingis on the Nets really would help to consolidate the hate though!

Doucheingis would be a perfect fit personality wise in the nets locker room

I would certainly enjoy observing his reaction to being the 4th or 5th option!

And Janis jockeying for an ownership position! The possibilities are endless!
