Also congrats on having an excellent coach who makes adjustments during the game and having players with tons of heart. My Hawks are pathetic in the worst way and this series is COMPLETELY over at this point. We have the worst coach in the NBA and it's been clearly seen now with this series along with a bunch of gutless, whining players. The only good thing that will come out of the Hawks choking in this series is that Woodson will finally be gone so we can get a real coach in here like Skiles with an actual offensive/defensive gameplan. Congrats again on making the Hawks looks pathetic. Good luck with Orlando!


I saw the TNT shot of the Atlanta Hawks in a timeout and it looked by all appearances that the coach has lost the players. The Bradley Center is ten times louder than Phillips Arena. The players will feed off that energy. We have nothing to lose. We weren't supposed to have gone this far. Everyone counted us out. The Bucks will feed off the crowd energy and want to prove they can play. The Hawks are the ones with their backs against the wall. They have made adjustments, but not enough. And get them frustrated, the flagrant fouls and technicals will be out in full force Friday night. I said if we could steal a victory Wednesday night in Atlanta, we win the series. I'm standing by that. What makes anyone think Atlanta will turn their road playoff fortunes now? It is possible but doubtful in my opinion.


What do u mean? Yeah i've already given up on the Hawks as I previously noted. I know they won't win tomorrow night before a raucous Bradley Center crowd. I'm sure we wilt like the whining babies we have become in this series. With Woody it just magnifies it even more because he is the WORST coach in the NBA. Us Hawks fans have known this for some time but now everyone can see it. Only reason we won 53 games was on our talent alone nothing Woody is doing. This series OVER! Good luck with Orlando.

It will be interesting to see how the Bucks respond to the sudden spotlight (a lot of national attention in the last 12 hours), and the pressure of a potential clinching game. This team has proven to be incredibly resilient and mentally though though, so I expect them to handle it well.

Simmons made a great point in his Playoff Power Ranking article today - the BC has been unreal so far this series, and it's about to get even better for game 6. Whatever happens the rest of the way, basketball fandom has awoken from it's long slumber in Milwaukee, and I hope it's here to stay.

Does anyone know if they are doing anything for the game? Redout? Greenout? I hope if they do a color out (which I think they should) I think it should be green. The best thing they could do would be actually give out tshirts. Cause you can't get 19,000 people to wear the same colored shirt.

I am only half paying attention to 1250 but did somebody just suggest a blaze orange out? That'd be hilarious

Yes, we actually talked about this in Squad 6 about doing theme nights in the season, like a retro purple night, a cammo/blaze orange night. Some of the things we have discussed about maybe doing next year if it continues on. I would be all for blaze orange/cammo it would be unique and awesome.

Disgruntled Bulls fan here, I've been pulling for you guys a bit all season, not saying I've followed you(barely even kept up with my own team), but yeah, not a big fan of most of my team's moves, and since you have our old coach, and the guy we brought in to have an extra excuse to get rid of our best player, and probably the best playoff motto in sports history, you have a special place in my heart! I might come up for the game tomorrow if I can get off work early enough!

I think you could safely say you can make a profit on that ticket.

We need the home crowd to crush the souls of the Hawks! I know you guys can do it! :D

Good god I wish I could be there. It's going to be me and a bunch of Aussies posting in the game thread tomorrow night.

The Bucks could easily lose this given the talent of Atlanta. I'm just somewhat optimistic though that the crowd energy will be too great for the Hawks to deal with.

The Bucks play smarter and our team/city/fans just want this a lot more. We'll see if that is enough.

It could easily happen. I do think that if we lose tomorrow, the momentum shifts way back to the Hawks. I don't like our chances in a Game 7.

Lol, I'm trying but it's not going good so far. Not a lot of interest on craigslist. The only response I've gotten was some kid begging me to sell it to him for 10 dollars.

Let's just let the Magic fans go. Plenty of time for that discussion IF the Bucks win tomorrow night.

Yes. What is your plan to beat us?





It's a trick. We will use the "plan" to make our plan to foil their plan! Bahahaha....
