you aren't going to find many better finals games than that, especially on the road.

Kobe won't be in the top 10 of players that played from 1999-2020.

Well it might not hit 10 but it'll be close

Locks as Better than Kobe
Shaq
Duncan
Lebron
Durant

Not quite there but probably end up ahead
Westbrook
Curry

Finished Career = or debatable
Garnett
Wade

Young players with much higher peak potential
Towns
Davis

The Chicago Bulls reportedly want Andrew Wiggins included in any deal for Jimmy Butler.
The Timberwolves have reportedly made the fifth pick in the 2016 NBA Draft available to the Bulls as part of a play for Butler, but Chicago wants Wiggins included if they're going to give up Butler. It's unclear if Wiggins and the fifth pick would be an acceptable return for the Bulls, but we'll likely see other teams get involved in the bidding before (if) Butler is dealt.

The Chicago Bulls are reportedly looking to trade Derrick Rose.
While Jimmy Butler has been involved in recent trade rumors, the Bulls would rather move Rose and are reportedly actively shopping the former MVP. It's unclear if there are currently any teams interested in acquiring Rose, but his $21.3 million salary for 2016-17 could be a deterrent for any potential suitor. We'll keep an eye on news surrounding Rose, but the Bulls may be stuck with him as he enters a contract year.

For a series that looks like it's going 7 it has been a pretty terrible series. One kinda close game out of 6?

They are beyond shook. Haslem got a 1 game suspension for throwing mouthguard. Obviously curry never gets suspended here but add him to the list of gsw players with the emotional control of a toddler.

Lebron with likely the best 2 game run in finals history.

He's a grown man that threw a temper tantrum. Throwing shit at the fans is worse than at the ref. He absolutely never gets suspended here but he absolutely should because if you can't be a fucking adult you don't fucking belong in the league. They were way to soft on nut-kicking Green and Curry is just as emotionally fragile.

It won't matter Lebron is going to destroy them in game 7.

Sounds like your pretty emotional for a grown man. You can appreciate LeBron without hating every single other person on the court (teammates and opponents) with him. NBA has clear precedence already set, mouth guard into fans = fine.

Be cool for LeBron to get chip for Cleveland, but I hate to see people discount GS 73 win season. They are clearly better team but playing like shit majority of this series. Regardless who does win LeBron should win mvp.

Gs takes this in game 7. If they don't though, losing a game 7 in the NBA finals on your home court would completely erase their record breaking regular season imo...

Jordan averaged 41/8.5/6.3 in 93... So yeah no

You understand Lebron is averaging about 7 ppg less for his team even factoring in his slight edge in assists?

Stephen Curry will not be suspended for Game 7 of the NBA Finals on Sunday.
Curry inadvertently threw his mouthpiece at a fan in frustration after fouling out of Game 6, but a suspension would've been a major surprise. Curry will be fined $25,000 by the NBA and coach Steve Kerr will also have to pay $25,000 for criticizing the officials after the game.

A finals MVP should never be awarded to a player from the losing team imo
