To be fair, Milwaukee had little choice but to do it the "old fashioned" way. No one was signing there, and the biggest stars would tell them to piss off if they started talking about trades (ie, I won't re-sign here so don't waste your time on trading for me).
Portland is going through the same thing with Lillard. |

I guess it depends on the definition of "ages".
Heat over the Spurs and Dallas over the Heat were probably up there IMO. This was a really good one though. The Warriors vs Heat/Cavs year after year shit got stale. |

The Bucks were largely terrible for the first two games and the Suns were awful for the last four. Beyond Giannis' dominance, this wasn't a particularly good playoff series for me. Both teams showed their inexperience (although the Suns had a lot more of it). Nets/Bucks even earlier in the playoffs was better (if only because of the insane final game between Durant and Giannis).

It wasn’t a great series in terms of the actual games and how they played out.
But it was refreshing to see 2 smaller market teams that aren’t super teams playing for all the marbles. It was great for the NBA IMO. |

Injuries are a part of the game and the Bucks were the best team this season at the end of it. There's nothing to apologize for. |

Best* series I've watched since Jordan pushed off.
*and just about only But yeah... rooting for the Suns, the first two games were fun. The 4th quarter collapses not so much, and from the end of game 5 through game 6 was closer to watching college in terms of brick houses and terrible decisions. |

2016 Cavs/Warriors surpasses those but I know why you'd be reluctant to say so.

The west was more competitive. But then the warriors started rolling and only thing people started caring about was knocking the warriors out. Then the Lakers won in a year where everyone was tuned out. Almost every series this year was intriguing. And both conferences actually had good teams. Let alone the awesomeness of watching a new fan base get pumped up. Like the Suns in 4 guy. The same kind of cool shit we saw when the Chiefs and blues won. |

This series was pretty good, yes. That 76ers team with Embiid, Butler, Simmons, Harris, and Redick was stacked with talent. |

might have had 2 of the greatest plays ive ever seen both involving ayton--his game winner against utah and him getting rejected by the greek
but best series of all time--nah pick any series involving bulls/celtics/lakers/pistons in 80s and they seemed more competitive spurs teams with robinson/duncan had some great series this was fun basketball and brought me back mostly because i live in zona now but doesnt hold a candle to nba 25-35 years ago |

Not sure why people feel like the Bucks are not deserving. They've been one of the best teams in the NBA for the last few years.
And people act like the Suns shouldn't have been there. They were one win away in the regular season from being the best team in all of basketball by win percentage. LeBron's NBA is over. A new reign is in upon us. |
