An interesting game. Always felt like this was an automatic L for us because Spo was one of the best at the league at exploiting Kidd.

The crowd and the team will be pumped all the way up with Wade's return. I'm thinking a close loss.

An off night in South Beach rarely bodes well for the Bucks.


Psh. Giannis and Bari more likely to spend night working on crab dribble than falling to the clutches of that demon rum.


Can’t say the same for Mids, Bledsoe, Henson, and the rest of the crew.


They all happy now that Kidd is gone. No longer do they mask their sadness by having synthetic mammaries shoved in their grills.

However, Toronto might be the 1 when this is all said and done.. so too early to start playing that game.


I'm not looking ahead to round 2, we just need to win a playoff series
I'm against picketing but I don't know how to show it.

Very good test that should tell us a lot about how whatever coaching philosophies have changed under Prunty. We are 1-5 against Miami the past two seasons combined, with average margin of defeats over 10 points the last two seasons.

Will they be wearing those beautiful “Vice” jerseys?

Although DWade is just a corpse now, I’m sure they’ll be pumped up. Hopefully Giannis can jump over a few dudes and we can get the W.

I get that.

The difference between 5 or the 6 seed.. assuming we could reach the 3* is not that much. But I think Boston is more beatable than Toronto or Cleveland for us.... *if* we snuck into round 2.

5,6,7.. doesn’t seem like much separates the teams below us in the seedings right now. We just need to play well and i think we take care of business.. no matter who it is in round 1. Play well and advance.

Yuge. I'm very fearful due to Miami always sonning us. If we win, I think it speaks volumes. Nervous.

Yeah we've averaged 83 points a game last 3 games played in Miami.... thankfully we've been there a couple of days so maybe the players got it out of their system and got some rest last night... but probably not.

I was reading practice days count toward their two way, there was an article with Doc Rivers that said that is the biggest flaw with the system is that two way guys are penalized for practicing. Could be that we are trying to save his days.

The later the two-way contract is signed in season the less NBA days on it. A two-way contract signed at the mid point will have half as many pro rated NBA days as well. So Plumlee had less than 45 to begin with

I like our cream jerseys, but those Vice jerseys are sick.

Miami needs a win, and we are on a roll. We dont match up with them and they are very well coached. This has Loss written all over it.

If Prunty really wants a chance to keep this job after the season is over, this is the exact kind of game he needs to prove he can win.
