With that in mind, the first step is to realize, based on talent on the court, the Bucks should lose.
The Bucks with Dame and without Giannis are no better talent wise than Portland was when they had Dame and Jerami Grant. Dame with Jerami Grant went nowhere.
So please don't start lambasting the coaching unless you see clear cut coaching mistakes.
And realize that it is likely that BP or Lopez or KM will have a below average game. If you have this mindset, then you won't be disappointed, but you may be very happy if the Bucks win.
Without Giannis, Bucks lose in 5 or 6. Please prove me wrong.
Spot on Big O. Any team in the NBA without their MVP will look pretty mediocre. I mean, the 6ers were legit contenders until Embiid went down, and then they were 16-27 without him.
It is what it is. We were already a pretty sketchy team with an MVP level player and then we lost him. We have to be realistic about our chances. And now Midds is hobbled too as if this year couldn't get any more cursed.
