The Bucks and Cavs seem pretty equal talent wise. The Cavs are just a much better coached team than the Bucks. It shows on the court and in their records.

If anything you could actually make a case the Bucks have more talent just because the Cavs don't have anyone on Giannis' level.

Frustrating to think how much better this Bucks team would be right now with Atkinson.

You can't be serious.

The Cavs starting lineup is so much better than the Bucks it's not even arguable. And you blame the coach for that? What a bad narrative.

Then you get to the bench and they have a legitimate starter in Hunter and the Bucks have nothing.

The defense has been pathetic the last two games.

I advise a rebound.

We’re going to win this game

Trading twos for threes will get us nowhere

Brook is just a liability against these athletic teams.

randy84 · Post #126 » by **randy84** » Mon Mar 10, 2025 1:10 am

No boxout. No rebound. No win.

The Bucks halftime adjustment should be locking Doc in a locker and letting Prunty take over in the 2nd half.

I think we have a shot to win this one if we do that....lol.

He can't jump over a phone book.

All our obvious flaws really get put under a spotlight against these better teams. Why do none of these guys give a **** about boxing out? It can't be a coaching issue since it's been under multiple coaches.

As bad as we played combined with them getting some lucky loose balls, rebounds and hitting a lot of threes were only down 10. I think we can pull this one out. Bobby would be a big help in this matchup

Someone said Angel Reese can’t jump over a credit card, this also applies to Brook Lopez.

Super lucky to only be down 10 at halftime. I’m honestly pretty shocked we’re still in this game, it sure didn’t feel like it that whole 2nd quarter.

When healthy the Bucks have Portis, Trent and KPj who are all capable 6th man type. Saying we have nothing is so ill-informed.

its more a style of play and mentality of the players than actual talent

our guys do what they do and their going to do it that way and thats just how it is.

cavs, who have alot of talent themselves..... strike me of guys who would enjoy hackmans hoosiers movie. we think and play like were the big city school and have for awhile

Is it the same starting lineup as last year's team?

I like us when Giannis is on the floor. Not so much when he's off.

BigO · Post #136 » by **BigO** » Mon Mar 10, 2025 1:15 am

All these complaints and no realization that the Bucks are badly outmanned. If they win this game it will be because Dame and Giannis go off and somehow the Cavs starting five have a bad half.

Portis would help a lot, but he can't make up for a bad starting lineup and no bench besides Trent.

The talent gap between the Bucks and Cavs is not a big one, even if for the sake of argument we give the talent edge to the Cavs.

If this Cavs team can be 53-10. This Bucks team shouldn't be a loss or two away from being the #6 seed.

Chad34 · Post #138 » by **Chad34** » Mon Mar 10, 2025 1:16 am

Sims and kpj need to do much better in the second half

Perkins actually making a good comment about Strauss killing us, and doc having dame and Giannis off the court at the same time
