Amen. Preach it, brother.

Hayward is key for them. If he returns to form it's going to be a very tough series. If Kyrie is their only true playmaker, though, I'm not worried.

Have a feeling that the Fiserv Forum is going to be rocking for Game 1.

BTW, can confirm there are still many tickets left for every game of the Celtics series. Just bought tickets to games A, C, and D.

Bledsoe and Middleton are going to have something to prove and they don't really have an answer to Giannis. Bucks in 5

Glad we got the sweep tonight so both teams will be about equally rested and rusty, so no excuses on either side. One seed definitely benefited us with a cupcake opening round opponent and now we have a very winnable series on paper while Philly and Toronto can beat each other to a pulp before any potential ECF. I'm gonna say Bucks in six.

Marcus Banks is going to feel the pain. Some way way back machine surely has endless threads of that crap.
Go Bucks!

I am going to address this once. The bucks are a good team, but not a good team. They have not proven that both in the past as a franchise with one championship to show for it and in the present. They have only started to have recent success for a few seasons. Even if you take their team has currently constituted, they are still not a great team. They lost to the celtics in the first round last season, and now in the second round. The term great team is used too loosely. What makes a team a great team is how it is put together, how well they play together and how they perform both in the regular season and playoffs.

Let us see what they do in the post season before calling them a great team,and being a great team is not for one or two seasons. They are a very good team, and should be respected but they are not the warriors, the celtics, bulls, spurs of the past. It is too early to call them a great team. I don't hate the bucks, never did. All i said was that they beatable which is the truth, and they are a good team, but not a great team. At least for now they are not.


Word salad anybody?

Yikes. Denial anyone? 2nd largest point differential in playoff NBA history. They are good but not good.

I expect the Celtics to get a historically awful whistle in their favor.



I expect the Bucks to win.

They have the experience and perhaps the better in-game coach, we have the best player and home court advantage. They have chemistry issues, we have injury issues. We are both deep teams, with more than one guy who can score, but Giannis and Kyrie are head and shoulders above everyone else on the court.

Bucks in 6. Seal it in Boston. Love it.
