Not holding my breath . They can’t rebound

On which side of the court? They won the rebounding both games. I think not shooting 29% 3PT would have helped, and they need a good performance from Holiday

Im glad Ayton has been getting his props he is playing well out there. To me Game 3 is the most important game of the series
1. Herro 2. Bol Bol 3. Seko 4. Bruno
unless we trade up for Barrett or trade down for PJ Washington

What are you talking about? Malika is great. So is Maria..Rachel is ok.

Better than listening to Mark Jackson that's for sure.

He better not . Or discrediting FMVP going forward

Ayton after two games is not neck and neck for FMVP, lol, nice game 1, but he wasn't as impactful in this one, though still good. So far Paul and Booker are neck and neck, both have done well, Paul shot better, Booker scored more and attacked more, and Paul done a good job controlling the pace, but a little turnover happy late in this one.

He was so important this game got so many 2nd rebounds , made big defensive stops. He’s been very important.

Just a reminder The Bucks lost by 39 game 2 of the ECSF and we’re down 0-2. It ain’t over yet. These playoffs have been entirely too unpredictable to say so

yeah, sure..no finals mvp and he goes to try and win one next to LeBron and AD for pennies on the dollar.

Right after winning his first championship with Phx and Monty.

It really is too bad the Lakers didn't hire Monty....they wanted him..though he wanted Phx.

Malika is 100 percent more professional. Rachel always seems like she's trying to flirt with the players.

Yeah, winning home games is nothing to get overly excited about. Obviously it's very nice but gotta win them all.

I agree. Jrue at least impacted the game defensively and with effort. Middleton? When he missed the off-balance three point attempt that killed Milwaukee. Late in the game Booker and Bridges scored on him with ease.

Middleton was pretty bad.

Ayton, Paul, and Booker are all still healthy.
