The fouls are absurd. That was all ball from Tucker.
-
I love Giannis but he does a lot of dumb things.
-
How do they know Giannis needed a breather and isn't just hurt?
-
Good job preventing that run from getting a lot worse.

I can feel the wheels on this wagon wobbling.

Holiday doing an excellent Bledsoe impression.

Who in the world said Durant wasn't a top 15 player? You're really going hard on Joe Harris here. The guy is a role player. Shooting the highest 3 point percentage doesn't make one the best 3 pt shooter in the league. You really think Joe Harris is a better 3 pt shooter than Steph? No, he's not. He's a beneficiary of having James Harden, Kyrie Irving and Kevin Durant drawing looks. He's a spot shooting role player, a really good one, who gets a bunch of open looks because nobody playing the Nets can afford to be concerned with him. He's a very good shooter, he's not a shot creator, he's not a dynamic player. I'm just confused by your end game. The Bucks should have lost a series where Irving and Harden both missed significant time? Because of Joe Harris?

The first three games they had a healthy Durant and Irving and two of the three were on the road. I don't see how you expect to win at least two of them. And why do people not acknowledge that they also have the top three point shooter in the league (and it's not Durant). Durant has been around a long time and has one non-Super team Finals appearance and it was a bad loss. The Nets without Harden and Irving are another run of the mill perennial playoff team that will always be good but never good enough - pretty much exactly what Durant has been doing his whole career. It's going to be incredibly disappointing if the Bucks blow this. The injuries dropped this into their lap to take. I'm honestly just kind of taken aback by how you're downplaying the injuries to Harden and Kyrie. It's embarrassing that the Bucks couldn't capitalize on Harden playing 45 seconds in Game 1. It's embarrassing that they choked away Game 5 with a 17 point lead fairly late. We shouldn't even be playing a Game 7, yet they've managed to make us feel lucky that we are. Their Big 3 is a Big 1.25. If the Bucks lose, I'll personally rue this series as one that any decent X and O coach would have won.
-
To this point, sure. It'll lead to a lot of hot takes if they lose.

Take this for the TMZ piece of information that it is, but I have a source that says Rodgers renewed his membership at the Green Bay Country Club for another year. Edit: seeing this was on Twitter this morning, but I got it from the same person that tipped me off on Brewers GM change and Bucks uniform/fiserv name. -
I think their last Game 7 was losing to the Hawks with Jennings and Bogut. The last one I remember them winning was against the Hornets in 01, another series they trailed 2-3 but had Game 7 at home.
-
Murphy has an ego. I've brought this up several times, but the first warning shot of this was when they fired McCarthy, or hired MLF, I can't remember, but he felt it necessary to rattle off his career accolades in front of the media. It's important to him that we know how smart he is. He doesn't have the silent confidence of Ted Thompson.
-
Right, they weren't missing Irving for the first 3 games and they handled the Bucks once, then slaughtered them, then lost by a point. And they were down Harden. Jeff Green and Blake Griffin are decent role players. If the Bucks lose because of either of those guys they have probably been Wisconsin'd yet again. If you had told the NBA world before the series that Harden and Irving would get hurt and both would miss multiple games, nobody would have picked the Nets to win, and probably not to survive 7 games.
-
Irving is a massive loss, he is another player can create his own shots, but to say they "have Harden" is more than slightly disingenuous. The Bucks should have wrapped this up already, I don't think that's controversial. They have been outright dominant for the last 3 games and are 3-1 in the last 4.
-
Complicated fella is code for 'difficullt'. There is no other thing that could have meant. It was just dumb. I'm sure there are people who would let it roll right off their back, but Aaron is not one of those people.
-
I'd rather the Bucks get the Sixers than Hawks if they were to advance. I think they'd handle either one, but the Sixers just look dead to me.
-
Yeah I don't think the Nets are the better team. With a full roster, yes, but they have no Irving and half of James Harden. This is basically the Bucks without DDV trying to outscore Kevin Durant. He played out of his mind in Game 5 but it probably wouldn't have been enough without the classic Bucks Pumpkin player Green hitting every shot he took. Championship opportunities are probably not going to get better than this season for the foreseeable future with the Lakers hurt and bounced out early and getting a ton of lucky breaks this series. I don't think we're going to win because Wisconsin, but there is really not a great reason we should lose this game.
-
I'd be pretty surprised if Kyrie can go. His game is a lot more agility than Harden's, who can be decent just standing around shooting 3s. He can probably do that, but how many guys can they have on the court who can't run?
-
If we are picking apart 15-1 I can easily pick apart 10-6. They essentially lost two games without Rodgers playing, lost back to back games in OT and never trailed by 7 all season. I think their Pythagorean was 12-4 that year and while they looked a bit fluffy in 2011 they were a wild card that nobody really wanted to play the year before.
-
They followed up their 2010 Super Bowl by going 15-1 and looking completely unstoppable on offense. They deserved to win the Super Bowl in 2010, they just bloomed at the end of the season, they were pretty average in the beginning and middle offensively. The unfortunate part is that they looked to still be "on the rise" in 2010 and primed to play in several Super Bowls. Didn't work out that way.
-
I still don't get why they're not setting up an all you can score buffet for Lopez. He should be getting 20 to 22 a game this series until or unless bkn proves that they can stop him. That's easy. They'd rather he shoot 3s.
-
Middleton is really everything in Game 7. He could exorcise a lot of demons with a great game. Giannis is going to get his 30 but if we can trust Khris with the ball at the end of the game and he's the one shooting free throws it makes it much more plausible. I have no faith and am conditioned to heartbreak but I guess we have a chance. It feels like we've really been dominant for 3 straight games.

I have no faith in the Bucks to win Game 7, but it really does seem like if they just pound the paint, they'd win.

Ok, looks like we live to see another day.
