Go Bucks. No injuries.

We did it. We made it. Bucks basketball is actually back.

I can't believe this is real. Time to make some magic happen.

Enjoy every moment, even though we're not together at Fiserv Forum.

Summer NBA playoffs is so weird, but what isn't weird in 2020.

Made the mistake of watching the MKE BOS game from October last week. The refs blew 3 ridiculous offensive fouls on Giannis bc of flopping Smart, and Doris Burke was all over Tatum's ntz the whole game. I'd like to avoid both of those things this wonderful Friday evening.

Any idea who will be calling the game for ESPN tonight?

This is the game that I flew to Milwaukee to see back in March. I got to see the Fiserv giftshop. How much everything has changed since then...

I honestly haven't missed sports much during the last few months, but I'm really excited for tonight. Got a championship to win still.

Still need to lock up the home sound effects advantage.

Do I make wings tonight or Frank's buffalo chicken dip?

Both very quality options. I feel like the dip could be saved for game one of the playoffs.

Shredded buffalo chicken dip is the GOAT. That would be my choice.

Refs can screw us all they want even more now because there will be no home crowd to let them hear about it.

James Capers
Kevin Scott
Brent Barnaky

Get ready for a lot of winning Bucks basketball for the next 12 months. So looking forward to it.

This bubble is an interesting experiment to test the hypothesis: are officials influenced by home crowds to make home-team-favoring calls? Sports bettors who handicap the refs are going to be tested.

I. AM. EXCITED. GO. BUCKS. GO!

I’ve avoided sports talk, etc for months. Is this a “regular season” game? Are all teams playing? How will playoffs be decided? When will playoffs begin? My life is full of confusion.

JFGI,
Each team will play 8 regular season games to determine seeding before going to playoffs.
Playoffs will be four rounds of best-of-seven.
Playoffs begin Aug 17, finals scheduled around Sep 30th. Game 7 of finals could be 10/13.
What happens with the 2020/2021 season?
