I cant believe so many people are getting sucked in. I can see a competitive series but you all are forgetting one thing, Our defense just blows and that will not change. Go Bucks
Ride the tank

Bookmark this and save for after the series. It will be the million-dollar question. Coming into the year I'd say most Bucks fans were confident in making the proclamation that we had a top-5 player. If that is undeniably true, he leads the Bucks to a series win given the circumstances.
The last time I checked its not one on one.


Poor excuse.

If we lose in 4 or 5 I want Jon Horst's resignation.

I dont understand how you can blame a win or loss on one player without accounting for his performance?What if he plays well but the bucks lose?or he plays badly but they win?

Did you really just post a lineup with the starting 2 guard being JR Smith?

Our actual management posted a lineup with the starting 2 guard being Tony Snell.

There's a flip side on that coin.
That side says that if Giannis plays great but the bucks still lose, then the bucks are not a team for Giannis and they are hindering his future.

If they can't correct the issues holding everyone back. There's time & there are ways. Most immediately coaching, followed by a better POBO & GMing.

Bucks in 7 having more votes than Celtics in 7 doesn't make logical sense. Either it's Bucks in 6 or they're dogs.

I have no doubt that Monroe with his passing and post skills will destroy Henson and Thon (if Prunty puts Thon in the floor). I am not sure about Zeller.

The issue with Monroe is his defense and Stevens knows that very well. He will stagger minutes between Monroe and Baynes based on the flow of the game.

Where is this talent that you guys speak of? We have one All Star when most playoff teams have two or more. 40% of our starting lineup consists of Tony Snell and John Henson who don't even qualify as quality bench players. Statistically, we have the worst bench out of any playoff team.

The Bucks have one player and then hope that Middleton or Bledsoe are hot. This is not a talented roster.


Bledsoe>Rozier
Middleton>Brown
Snell<Tatum
Giannis>Morris
Henson<Horford

Brogdon>Larkin
Jabari>Moose
Zeller<Baynes

Who cares about a bench in the playoffs? Playoffs are an 8 man rotation. The Bucks have a better 8 with these Boston injuries.

I'm not talking about comparing our roster to Boston's depleted roster. I'm speaking generally. PP25 said the Bucks in the later rounds would be "talent vs. talent" and BroncoBuck said "individually we are talented." The Bucks have a better roster on paper than Boston but overall it's still a weak roster.

I'm going Celtics in 7. We're going to go up 3-2 going into Game 6, and we'll blow the game in Milwaukee and get shellacked in Boston.

And that will set the stage for a tumultuous offseason.

I can't believe only 7% here expected a sweep for Boston...

Return to Milwaukee Bucks
