50 threes, that is just pathetic. Our team is scared. They are scared of the Bucks inside defense.

No ball movement, no drives just bad offense.

Wrong.

He almost took the bulls to the finals him self one year.

He also almost won a finals him self if not for the most egregious ref job in NBA history.

Having Rondo on this team would have worked wonders in this matchup. Food for thought

Scottie Pippen averaged 22.2 points, 8.5 rebounds and 5.5 assists in 142 games for the Bulls without Michael Jordan in his career. Without a zone defense.

Jaylen has yet to play a complete game once this postseason. Tatum deserves criticism today but he was due for one honestly. All I saw all game was the bucks basically saying do not let Tatum beat you. Worked for the bucks today, worked for the heat a few weeks back, and worked for the mavs a month ago. You stop Tatum, you have a great shot of beating the Celtics. I didn’t think Tatum had anything easy today, everything was tough and was surrounded by multiple defenders. Can’t say that about anyone else on the roster.

We played like poop, the calls were slanted to the Bucks, Marcus was getting physically abused. Not a recipe for a W. Celtics in 6

Totally OT but I like what Cincy did in the draft. I grew up there and have a soft spot for the Bengals.

Sounds like great numbers for the 90s NBA where they aren't shooting bull amount of 3s and the clock doesn't reset to 14 instead of 24, inevitably creating more shots per game.

But can we focus on the fact that you claimed that Pippen missed the playoffs without Jordan?

Or that he took the Knicks to game 7, the same Knicks that went to game 7 of the finals that year?

You don't get to change your argument mid debate. Pippen is a all time player and brown is barely an all star.

Kudos to the Bucks. It won't be easy beating the defending champs. I dont want to overreact to one game and we will know a lot more after Game 2.

You don't know what you're talking about.

Jordan missed the entire 94 season and Pippen dragged them to game 7 of quarterfinals against a team that was 2 points away from winning it all.

But you're right. Pippen never made the playoffs without Jordan.

Google Pippens Blazers success vs Jordans Wizard success too.

Brown isn't half the player. The slander is real.
