this is by far the best Atlanta Hawks team i have ever seen. The 60 win team wasn't even this good. Complete underdog in the firs 2 rounds, and they take down both of the top 2 defenses in the league. Takes special talent and great coaching to do something like that.

After demolishing the best defensive teams in the East, the Hawks should have no trouble with Milwaukee.

Makes sense.

I'm so happy for this franchise. This team is very resilient and fun to watch. I think they are more talented and deep than the 2015 squad. Beyond that, Trae makes it all so much more exciting and entertaining than any other Hawk I've ever watched (fan since 2003). The Bucks are favorite, but the Hawks can compete.

2021 NBA Playoffs: Position-By-Position Breakdown Of Atlanta Hawks vs Milwaukee Bucks

Series Prediction – It’s no secret why the Bucks are favored. They have the edge at nearly every position, have the best player in the series and home court advantage. However, things are a little closer when you give the Hawks the bench edge and factor in Nate McMillan being a better coach than Mike Budenholzer.

Part of me wants to ride the Hawks bandwagon and take a bite out of those +360 odds. However, this is the Bucks series to lose with all of the length and size defensively. The Bucks should give these young Hawks hell on the defensive side. We also have yet to see the Bucks shoot to their full potential and yet they’ve still made it this far.
Things have broken perfectly for the Bucks, and I’ll predict they win this thing in five games.

Seriously? They are bigger? Bigger than Embiid? Better defensively than the top 2 defensive teams in the east that Atlanta has left wanting? Haven't been shooting really well in the playoffs but expect to do so now. Really?

Bucks in five! Guess this means we have no chance. Where have we heard this before? Nevertheless, if this happens, Atlanta has already exceeded expectations. We eliminated #1 in the east and advanced to round three. Really, we did !!

:lol:
