I will say one thing. I was wrong about the pride of this team. I felt certain they had already had their bags packed and were going to go through the motions and go home today.

 

When they fell behind big in the 1st, I was sure that was coming to fruition. When Giannis went out, I thought there was no way they were fighting through this.

 

They still aren't going to win the series, but their pride is in tact.

No reason they can't win. Same team that rattled off a bunch of a consecutive wins against good teams. If Miami can beat the Bucks 3 straight, they can do the same. This was a 70 win team at one point.

 

I doubt they are going to have Giannis, and realistically they just aren't winning the next 3 without him.

 

I know they looked better when he went out today, but over the next 3, obviously we need him.

These might be the same players that were on the path to 70 wins, but they don't look like the same team.

"Rock, sometime, when the team is up against it, and the breaks are beating the boys, tell 'em to go out there with all they got and win just one for the Uecker. I don't know where I'll be then, Rock but I'll know about it; and I'll be happy."

Aside from that one bucket in OT Middleton has been absolutely atrocious shooting in the 4th and OT.

 

Wasn't he 3/4 in OT? 4th quarter I'll give you. I don't think he made a bucket.

"Dustin Pedroia doesn't have the strength or bat speed to hit major-league pitching consistently, and he has no power......He probably has a future as a backup infielder if he can stop rolling over to third base and shortstop." Keith Law, 2006

The key to a competitive Game 5 will be Eric Bledsoe. If Giannis is out, they will game plan to shut down Middleton and will assuredly back off of Bledsoe and bait him into chucking up 3’s. He will need to show up and score 25+ points on 50% shooting to give the Bucks a chance. If he struggles to hit 3’s like he did today (0-6), it will be tough to overcome.

At the time I typed that he had just made the one bucket in OT. He was money after this, no doubt.

My bad I misread that it was present and not past tense.

Get rid of the three point attempts and Bledsoe was good. 6-7 shooting, ten bonds, 6 assists. Also Matthews was -25 and DiVencenzo was +22 on plus/minus.

It would have been easy for the Bucks to pack it up and go home being down 3-0, getting off to a slow start, or when Giannis goes down. My compliments to the team, including the coaching staff, for not letting that happen.
