GT: Nets @ Bucks Playoffs 2ND Round Game 3 Thursday 7:30

[DarkXaero]

Bucks have a much larger margin for improvement. especially with a win and confidence. they wont continue to shoot 26% on wide open threes. that cant last.

Again, we had Joe Harris and KD missing easy looks. Not a single player shot 50% or above. With the exception of Middleton, I'm not too worried about Bucks shooting, they have a lot of unreliable shooters on the floor (Tucker, Brook, Giannis, Jrue). We've done a fantastic job contesting their 3s and messing up their rhythm.

harris missing easy shots was the expected result. will be again on the road game 4.

Oh really? Then can you explain to me how did Joe Harris have a 4/5 from 3 performance on the road last series against Boston in game 4? And that was the game where Boston had a packed, rowdy crowd. In game 3 last series, Joe Harris played poorly, and then he bounced back with a very good game 4. It is highly unusual to get two really poor shooting games back to back from Joe.

the unusual occurence was harris having a good game 4 on the road. it is a certainty he will be a non factor with a subpar shooting game.

Maybe Joe Harris will have a crap game again, maybe he won't. Point is you don't have evidence on your side right now to make your argument, my friend.

[Hello Brooklyn]

Joe Harris can't afford having bad cold spells in his "off" games.... he really needs to get over any nerves or mental blocks give back more to the team offensively. Had he made one bucket, a 2 or 3, perhaps a different outcome.

The sad part is that Harris can do other things like make jumpers or drive to the rim.

Seems like when his 3s are off he loses his confidence and becomes useless.

If Harris is useless again I would cut his minutes and play someone else.

Bruce Brown panicked and made some bonehead plays at the end of this game

Calm down, guys. We shot horrible but were pretty much in the game till last sec. If anything, we should feel pretty good about ourselves. Bucks being at home with refrees help plus Middletons abnormal shooting performance were only able to beat us by 3. This is the Celtics G3 all over again. I expect us to come out gun blazing in G4 and finsiah them off in G5. If Harden is back then, that would be even better.

They shot awful and won. thats better then shooting awful and losing. they stand to shoot better as much as we do.

They shot awful because our D is much better than we’re given credit for. Our defensive rating is ranked No.4 among all playoff teams. There is a reason they suddenly could not score against us vs when they played the Heat.

There is a reason they suddenly could not score against us vs when they played the Heat. Also the bookies have us -1.5 at their home court same as 76ers vs Hawks today where 76ers are favored. If the Bucks were that good, they would not be underdogs at home against a Harden less team. If anything, the bookies have seen enough.

I don't know why all of the gloom and doom. The Nets aren't going to shoot that poorly two games in a row and the Bucks threw everything they had at us to squeak by with a 3 point win.

The Bucks were the #1 offensive team in the league and we have held them to 42% from the field, 22% from 3. Our defense is working against them. If we have a bounce back performance in game 4 offensively, we are going to run them out of their own gym.

We're contesting their 3s at a good rate. That should in theory be sustainable.

A missed opportunity to be sure for game 3, but we have another gear.

Because we can play better... alot better, and still lose. The stars carry a huge load but sans harden we need 40-50 points from our role guys. On the road, thats tough. 2-2 would be an enormous momentum swing. and we are staring it in the face.

in the playoffs, you simply cant give away a win like that... you need to close. we win game 3 and the series is over. if the bucks win sunday, its going 7, and anything can happen in a game 7

we are 0-3 in milwaukee this year.

they are shooting under 30% on wide open threes this series. our D has been good, but their good shooters have shot awful

I think it was just a really frustrating loss. I haven't been that mad about a game in a long time.

Would have rather we just lost by 10.

But feelings will flip real quick if we just win Game 4. I expect we will.
