Haha, there's some truth to this. I'd like to see someone like Middleton anticipate the reach in and go up for a shot a few times and try to draw the foul. Maybe that'd help stop the Raps' reach in fouls, which aren't being called much if ever this series.

My Prediction:

Close Loss Tonight - Close Win Game 6 - Blowout Loss Game 7

I know, its depressing...

If the Bucks lose due to poor officiating, you have just pointed out something that will be in every Milwaukee area based article about this game. Nice catch. EDIT: Yeah, you got me

Think we should rest our guys in this one.

I have the feeling Toronto wins this one going away. Probably in the 10-15 point range.

Hope I'm wrong, but that's the vibe I get.

Home teams win a lot more than average when these three guys ref.

If Giannis is what we think he is a super star. He should be able to carry us through the rest of this series. I have yet to be impressed with him this series he has done what he has all regular season. True super stars have that second gear in the playoffs like Lebron.

I think the Bucks are going to fall in 7.

The vibe of this series is really reminiscent for me of the 1999 team playing Indiana. They took them to 5 but lost, I believe Indiana went on to the finals. The Bucks had their magical run the following season.

Just getting that feeling - the Bucks will play like the better team but fall to the more veteran squad, take the lump, and come back better for it.

I mean, that place looks cool and all. But, wouldn't you rather watch somewhere with a better viewing experience so you can actually watch the game well? I assume at least they can get all messed up on Molson's but still...
