Optimism on this board is very high which is great. I'm glad the Bucks have battled hard all series and won Game 4. Here's to hoping the bench returns again and we bring back the road warriors tonight.

I expect another close game that will come down to who made more shots. That will likely be them, but I'd be happy regardless of the result tonight. We avoided getting swept at home in front of the Bulls fans and thats what matters most to me.

It's sad the Bucks can't get more fan support at home. Is this a case like with the Brewers where local fans selling the tickets for profits? That's a weak fan base = it sucks! Really makes Milwaukee look minor league.

You imagine how good they would have been with a motivated Sanders and healthy Parker.


It's a combination of 20+ years of mediocrity, our opponent being a city six times our size with many fans an hour or less away, and people selling tickets for profit. If the team starts showing they're competitive and getting better Milwaukee will start showing the team a lot of support. Casual fans are just waiting for a reason to get excited again.

Finally, I can watch a game! Just got back from my first trip to Europe (Paris, Amsterdam, Prague) and wasn't able to watch any of the games, as they all started at 2:00AM. Now I just want a victory so I can take my wife to her first playoff game. Had no desire to say that last year against Miami...

And on the other side, if they could stop shooting > 41% from three, that'd be great.

Is this potentially Jonny Mac's last game? Or is he coming back next year?

Gonna be tough to beat the Bulls in their own place, I'd at least like for Giannis and the young guys to play well.

That's a good point.

I don't know....I do know new owners & Bucks success has reinvigorated him a bit.

Hopefully he's still in the mix next season to call games.

I'd love it if LED threw Brian Anderson a bunch of cash and got him to call games for us instead of Sidney.

Let BA & Mac split games 75/25 or something.

I think it's going to be close. Maybe even coming down to the last shot again. I am praying for a win because I want one more at the BC and I'd suspect a game 6 would be a lot more like game 3 than 4. If we win tonight, I think we push to 7 and then let the chips fall where they may.

If we lose tonight. It's the end of the season. At least that's my understanding of how this playoff thing works.

I sure hope he sticks around. Uecker has cut back on road games but he lives in Milwaukee. McGlocklin has a home in Milwaukee but likes to spend winters in Arizona so just doing home games doesn't work out for him.
I'm against picketing but I don't know how to show it.

This Jareds and Juice was less entertaining than the last, but I will continue to look forward to more of those videos.

I do think a brown leather vest is a questionable fashion asset, I'd probably get rid of that if I was Mayo.

Everyone is discounting the bucks, kind of want the buck to push this to the limit, to shut everyone up.

No pressure on the Bucks here. I really hope we steal this one just to see the meltdown that will occur in Chicago to have to come back here for game 6. It would be worth it for that alone. And if we do win tonight, I expect the Bradley Center atmosphere to be insane in game 6.

I'm not expecting to win this series, but I do want to frustrate the hell out of the Bulls and their fans. Play them physical, get in their head, battle like on Saturday and see what happens. If Butler/Dunleavy don't play in god mode, maybe we get this one tonight. Go Bucks!

It's obvious Rose will be out for atonement tonight. It will be interesting to see what kind of basketball judo Kidd employs to turn his eagerness to take over the game against him.

After essentially winning Game 4 by jumping in front of the official to call time out with <2 seconds left, whatever Kidd does tonight is OK by me.
