When is the last time any of us said that? Where has that defensive effort been hiding? Incredibly refreshing to see it.

If Milwaukee gets healthy and just adds some more depth they can use in the playoffs, they’ll be RIGHT BACK to the top again next year. (maybe a new coach too, )

I’d add Portis in there too. Regardless of his antics…. He was a load for most of the series. If he hadn’t been ejected it’s very possible there is a game 7 Saturday.

doubt IPD was in the building. it was probably an off duty rent-a-cop working as a guard but wearing his uniform.
I expect a substantial fine.

my simple answer is to have a technical foul also count as a person foul. I don't mean extra shots. I just mean it counts toward fouling out. I believe this is a college rule now but I could be wrong,
