Your Marquette In The 2022 NBA Conference Finals Viewing Guide

Well, we got so close to a guarantee of a former Marquette basketball player hoisting the Larry O’Brien Trophy at the end of the NBA Finals this year, but we came up short. Both Wesley Matthews’ Bucks and Jae Crowder’s Suns — coincidentally, the two teams that met in last year’s NBA Finals — were eliminated in a seven game series in the conference semifinals, and so now we’re down to just two former MU guys left alive in the playoffs. Luckily, one’s in the Eastern Conference and the other is in the West, so there is a chance that they will both get to the Finals and face each other.
