The bucks are a team you’d think would do what is usually expected of a team of their caliber but it’s never like that with them lol

This is kind of what parity looks like. Sh** just never what it is seems. In fact the whole playoffs is very volatile right now. With no superteams, things never goes as expected

At lest if we don't make it, I don't mind losing to the Hawks. I don't hate anyone except maybe Collins, but only because he's annoying and scrawny punk bud Id take him on my team lol

It's amazing that another team with a great opportunity to finish / pull ahead in a series is going through such performance anxiety. Who's going to step up and lead? Middleton looks the most poised but he can't do it alone.

This feels like a Bucks win. Hawks should have been at +20.

Middleton's looks like utter garbage. He can't even throw a pass until the last 5 minutes. I wouldve rather had Jordan Nwora out there. But Mids does have the composure to do it.

He may snap out of it at any point though so Hawks have to watch him and we have to keep him out there. Because once it clicks, he just takes over.

It's clear that Trae is holding back this Hawks team with his ball hogging and no defense.

Ayton >>> Trae

Atlanta has ramped up their defense without Trae.

I've been calling for Cam to get the matchup on Middleton. He has all the physical tools needed to guard him the most effectively on this team

Middleton looks like he's running on 1/2 speed compared to the Hawks

Hawks can win this series even without Trae. They have a bunch of offensive weapons and are significantly better defensively.
