They should be treating these last 5 games like the playoffs.

We can potentially clinch a playoff spot in game 78 of 82.
Is this the Giannis & Dame era? Or is it the Michael Redd era?
Trick question, it's the Doc Rivers era.

But it would be hilarious if they actually were tanking to be the #4 seed and then Miami at the last second and grabbed the #5 seed. Bucks vs Heat in the #4 vs #5 match up is still very possible.
Like you said, everything is so bunched up we have no clue where anyone not named Boston is going to finish.
I agree that they're pretty much done with the regular season and are waiting for the playoffs to start, although I'm not a fan of it. I remember Michael Jordan saying he never dogged it on the court because you can't always expect to turn it up because its not a reliable method of winning. I really hope they're not tanking to avoid Miami, that just isn't a championship mindset.
If the Bucks were simply just done/bored with the regular season.
There's still no way they would lose 3 straight games to tanking teams.
With 2 of the 3 at home.
And with one of the teams on a 15 game losing streak.
The Bucks wouldn't flip a switch even if there was one. They've quit.

Rilamann cycle:
1. Optimism
2. Outlandish statements about players, coaches not being tough, having it, hating Wisconsin, etc.
3. Hyperbole about season being over, team never being able to win as long as _____________
4. Return to optimism when team starts to play well, deny most of 2 and 3 was ever said
5. Claim that he knew it all along when team inevitably falls short of a championship (even as underdogs)

You know apathy has set in when we can't even get SH to drop a must win rhyme on us.

Just because I tell it how it is and it pisses you off.
Doesn't make anything you said here accurate.
Admit it, my posts piss you off.
And then when we lose to 3 straight tanking teams, you cry and punch air.

Doesn't mean I can't reminisce/drop subtle hints.

Pacers are whooping the Heat. That makes this a must lose game imo. I swear the Cavs are losing on purpose as well but maybe we can get the Knicks or Magic to take #2.

Win tonight and tank the Orlando games to make sure we atleast get the 3 seed? Is that the plan?

I'm going into it with zero expectations, any thing we do good from here on out is a cause for celebration.
