Say we come out of the West, do we prefer Round 2 with the Bucks and Giannis or a fresh match up against the more perimeter focused Celtics?

I'd rather gamble on the Celtics but every matchup will be tough. Just think the Bucks have our number.

Although who knows, maybe that changes with KD

I was 8 rows behind the Suns bench and yelled at Monty to pull the starters with around 90 seconds left. Not that I would have expected him to acknowledge or do anything but I know he heard me. Dude played a dangerous game leaving them out there.

A dangerous game? Give me a break lol.

Players can play, KD was still sub-30 minutes.

I see that Monty is the latest guy to bash around here.

Right! It’s super hard to read nowadays. Not just on this board but everywhere someone is blaming Monty for something - rotations, minutes, timeouts. But then I go on other boards with great teams and everyone is bashing their head coach, too. It’s crazy how everyone on the internet is qualified to be a head coach.

Rotations will be definitely be tough. I feel like everyone has earned their minutes. There will be players that just won’t play. Not enough minutes for everyone. TJ Warren is a guy I really want to watch more but he hasn’t shown that he deserves the minutes.

Gordon Hayward destroyed his career in the first 6 minutes of his career in Boston with a leg injury.
Everyone is OK with leaving the starters in and risking a fluky injury when the game is in hand?

The bucks have the height advantage which we still haven't really addressed.
If Boston gets there, it's scary because they're good enough to beat Milwaukee. If the Bucks get there, it means they shut down the team who was nearly the best all season. It won't be fun regardless.
I celebrated when the Bucks beat the Nets a couple years ago. Not doing that again

Definitely Boston. They are great, shoot the 3 extremely well and would be a hard matchup but they are a much more 'normal' team to try and game plan for.

The Bucks are more unique with some hard individual matchups. Giannis is one of one type player and can feel unstoppable at times. Lopez has a skill set that you just don't see much with his ability to space the floor but also be a major problem on D. Holliday is a nightmare for both CP and Booker. And Mids is the tough shot maker for close games.
