Eastern Conference Finals: Milwaukee Bucks vs Toronto Raptors

[OnTheBlack]

Giannis with the steal and taking it coast to coast right out of the gate. Giannis needs a few easy ones early...and I really wish Bled didn't start.

 

There's Giannis with his second easy score.

[PinaMadness]

Now that's the Greek Freak we know and love!

[OnTheBlack]

That's 3 easy early ones for Giannis. Kawhi just standing there helpless.

 

Man, the difference between the Bucks in transition and in the half court is bigger for them than any other team.

[OnTheBlack]

Wonderful. Bledsoe is still starting.

 

 

I didn't really expect him to be benched, but I was kinda hoping. I'd have been happy to see Brogdon or Hill in there.

 

If Bledsoe can get a couple shots to fall early, a few layup's, I feel confident in him. If he can't....well, we've seen.

[PinaMadness]

I die a little whenever I see Lowry score.

[coolhandluke121]

I'm not quitting on Bledsoe but he's just not a good fit with Giannis. Good to see Hill in there early. Shows they're not letting any politics get in the way of winning.

[OnTheBlack]

It's gonna take about 150 to win this one.

 

BTW, not buying that Kawhi is hurt this badly. I don't want to sound like Skip, but I think he's a weird dude who likes having a built in excuse.

I am so sick to death of Kyle freaking Lowry. He's not this good.

[OnTheBlack]

At what point has there been even the slightest indication that the Bucks "let politics" get in the way of anything?

[OnTheBlack]

There we go....that's the Bledsoe we need. Attacking the rim.

[adambr2]

The FT struggles are really getting to be a problem. You can't continue to shoot FTs in the 60's percentage range and expect to compete with a team like Golden State.

[OnTheBlack]

I am so sick to death of Kyle freaking Lowry. He's not this good.

 

 

Especially the post-season version of him. Regular season I'd expect him to be a problem, but he's been like our Bledsoe in the post-season in past series.

Christ dude, go away. Stop responding to me. At what point did I ever say or imply they did?

[adambr2]

What a weak sauce call on Brogdon.

[OnTheBlack]

Not sure...you just brought it up out of nowhere.

[adambr2]

Well, if we had come out like this in Game 3 we'd be up about 15 right now. Unfortunately, the Raps just happened to be shooting out of their minds as well.

[PinaMadness]

I hate that the Raptors are making their threes.

[OnTheBlack]

That should be VanVleet's one shot per game.

[adambr2]

I cannot believe Giannis did that again.

[PinaMadness]

If there's one guy that can't get in foul trouble besides Giannis, it's Brogdon.

[PinaMadness]

After one quarter, the Raptors are plying better defense and shooting the ball batter, and getting offensive rebounds. Lucky to be only down one.

[adambr2]

If they play like this for 3 more quarters, they'll win. Lowry, Powell, Gasol and VanVleet are not good enough to make it rain at 70% from 3 all game.

[OldSchoolSnapper]

Is Middleton the Bucks designated FT shooter? Why wouldn't it be Brogdon?

[FVBrewerFan]

Just hate this broadcasting crew, man I miss Marquis.

[OnTheBlack]

If there's one guy that can't get in foul trouble besides Giannis, it's Brogdon.

 

 

Agreed.
