Post was removed by r/NBA. Not a Nets fan, but felt like I had to share it here. It’s water under the bridge now but in the wake of another postseason failure by Giannis I felt like I had to bring it up.

“I talked about this on my podcast today, but Harden and Kyrie’s injuries in the 2021 Nets-Bucks series is a historic sliding doors moment:
If they don’t get hurt Giannis likely doesn’t have a ring. His postseason track record was a huge knock up to that point.
Budenholzer is out in MIL.
KD, Kyrie, Harden are all Nets legends. Crazy how much luck plays a part in this stuff.”
Giannis is a shoe size away from entering his 11th NBA season without a title.

I’m sorry, but the fact that we’re still talking about this lol. Like, we lost. It sucked, but it’s over now. The “shoe size” away from a chip talking point is a bulbous nub now because it’s being used so much.
Game of inches and we came up short. Old news
Wild how Giannis is considered a failure, shit there are some people in fucked up places who would love to “fail” like him lol does anyone call Jokic a failure for never even getting their? Sports media, vocal fans, and armchair GMs have really been showing themselves lately. It’s like many cant appreciate greatness until it’s too late
That series will always haunt me until we win it all 😔😞
