There were big plays by different Bucks all night. Henson had a couple blocks in the 4th that were epic and game savers. He got the Bulls thinking about him so much that Rose had to make that one spectacular play where he hung in the air to reverse lay it up because he knew Henson was on him and thus couldn't go in straight.


Unfortunately we're still very far from being able to compete with the Bulls.

We were sitting behind this one couple who, and I'm not exaggerating here, complained about the refs loudly on 90% of the possessions. The Bulls committed no fouls. The refs even put time back on the clock at the end to give the Bucks a better chance at winning. These same people were just loudly talking crap about every bucks player throughout the entire game.


I think that was the part that surprised me. Usually at these games the Bulls fans will clap and cheer for their team which is cool. Tonight's Bulls crowd just couldn't keep their mouths shut bitching about everything and every play. And the fact there were so many of them made them more emboldened. I've never seen so many opposing fans in the BC.

Then you add in the fact that while the Bulls were getting generally out worked by the Bucks all night, the Bulls players would make these ludacrisp highlight reel shots that got their faithful out of their seats all the time. Jimmy Butler was particular obnoxious celebrating every time he'd make a shot.

Actually, I thought the Bucks have been competing quite nicely with them.

I think if you took Dunleavy off the Bulls and put him back on the Bucks, this series is tied 2-2 or Bucks up 3-1.

Butler and Rose are playing like Jordan and LeBron and they still are struggling to put Milwaukee away each game.

I could not disagree more, the Bucks could very easily be up 3-1 right now..

Bucks have made the Bulls play their asses off each game. They've gone toe to toe each game, game one the possible exception only because they went ice cold in the fourth quarter of that one. This isn't the Heat taking on a hopeless eighth seeded Bucks team.

With all the bricks and missed layups in the first two games and blowing the 18 point lead in a blink in Game 3, the Bucks certainly have had the opportunity to make some noise in this series.

The Bulls have never lost a playoff series in which they won 4 games.

You miss 100% of the shots you don't take.

The Bulls really aren't that good, it's not like it's Miami from a couple years ago. They're a top 3 team by default in this conference...you put them in the West and they're just another team like Portland or Dallas, a fun team to watch but more or less irrelevant. I like what they're doing with Butler, Mirotic, Rose now, etc...but I think a couple smart offseason additions here and there, a healthy Jabari back, development from guys like Giannis/Mids/MCW/Henson/Marshall/Ennis (particularly shooting-wise)...and we're just a hair under their level next year.

Hell, a fully healthy Jabari makes this a clear 6 game series at the very least.

I don't know...I think the Bucks are just playing better than some are giving them credit for. Our defense has been insane. I mean it was good throughout the season but they really kicked it up a notch. And is it just me or has Chicago banked in a three in every game in this series? It's ridiculous how well they're shooting in this series.

The two games I've been to almost all of the Bulls fans I've interacted with have actually been very respectful and nice people. A lot of strangers congratulating us on the win tonight which surprised me a lot.

This series has gotten me off NBA discussion on Reddit forever.

Bulls fans are complete garbage, both in the BC and on Reddit. I'm full-time RGM now.

So i take it unlike last game where it was 60/40 bucks or 50/50. This game had more bulls fans and more boisterous fans?

Was talking to my bro in Milwaukee he said the bulls fan in front of him in game 3 walked away with a migraine from screaming full volume for 3 hours in his ear.

And the bulls fan in front of him in game 4 he ridiculed for 2 hours for being a bandwagon fan who doesnt even have any Bulls gear.

Just so you know all bulls fans aren't sitting peacefully in BC. :)

Don't forget starting a "Go Bulls Go" chant during the national anthem. Really?

I browse both, but this place is so much better for Bucks talk.

I gotta say I had a similar experience. Not that I don't think they're annoying, but I was fortunate.

Fantastic atmosphere and game

The thing about winning tonight is realizing just how close we were to having the series even at 2-2.

Awesome showing by the Bucks though. Our defense is going to be top 5 in the league for the next decade IMO.

Return to Milwaukee Bucks
