Brunson taking over in the fourth, about to put away Philly for good. He was a top 10 player in the league this year, and he's the #1 scorer in the entire playoffs so far.

Does anyone still think he wasn't worth an extra 5 mil a year or whatever the hell it was? Smh.

So badly want the Sixers to win ugh.

Uh, I said Brunson was worth 30+ and some people thought I was nuts.

I'm trying not to sweat it too much because Kyrie has been awesome for us. But damn, Brunson is 5 years younger, plus we gave up serious assets to get Kyrie.

Last time Rick won a playoff series, the Mavs won a championship

Mavs second championship confirmed

I think Brunson is kinda like the Nash situation. He was never going to be the player he is now playing with Luka. But damn it hurts knowing they lost him for nothing. I?ve liked Brunson since college, so I?m happy for the guy. Wish the whole situation of him leaving had been handled better, but it?s in the past.

Difference is Nash gave the Mavs the opportunity to match...Brunson didn't.

His sights were set on NY for a while. That's the right of a free agent.

I'm happy for his success.

Yeah

Nash - Cuban screwed up. It still turned out okay. I'm not sure we even win a championship with him. I'm not sweating it.

Brunson - Sounds like he wanted out. He wouldn't be an all-star and potentially on pace for a HOF nomination if he stayed there. I'm actually happy for him and pleased that Nico came in and patched up the hole he left. Again, I'm not bothered.
