Well Imo the last 3 years Lowry/DeRozan had good regular seasons but when it comes to playoffs they just cant put it together...If this continues in the playoffs this year its time to look to the future and get rid of them....All that matters is playoffs and if your 2 best players cant play playoff basketball you have no choice but to move on

Why do people assume we will win this series. What did you see tonight that makes you think that.

I don't get the game 1 curse these are grown ass men. Bucks are playing rookies and guys who have very little playoffs experience and looked 100% ready

If we lose to a team that starts 2 average rookies, Greg **** Monroe and a slow unathletic Middleton and a crap bench.....

Seriously there are no words...

The coaching staff needs to be axed immediately and DeRozan needs to turn heel on Lowry as the Raps use that Cap space
on someone who doesn't decompress during the playoffs.

I don' know about a sweep, but we don't look like we' ll win more than one or two. By taking away all the easy stuff at the hoop at the rim we are left only with incredibly unreliable shooters.

Gotta give it to the Bucks. They were ready and played hard as hell. Giannis was a monster who didn't take off a single play and nobody else did either.

Problem with us is ball movement. When we move the ball we are effective. But that's never been a part of the offensive system all these years.

This. There is a better chance of us being swept than there is of us winning this series tbh.

Before Lowry got injured I was questioning whether we can afford to pay Lowry 200 million

Everyone thought I was nuts

Even if he had a good game tonight and we won. I wouldn't want to screw is over by locking this high into a 200 million dollar contract

We played fine without him when he was injured

Reminds of when tried to overpay for a 37 year old Steve Nash. Because he was Canadian but all we ended up with was Landry fields lol

I think we'll get it together. But, we need to feature Val more than we did in Game 1.

The offense isn't built on ball movement, it's pretty much Lowry/Derozan breaking down defenses. So when they not doing that they are a very bad version of Russ/KD. Even today with Derozan being "good" he still scored 27points on 50% TS and Lowry obviously was trash. still think Bucks only win 1 more game rest of the series but they have to pick up Giannis in transition.

I don't understand what Casey does to prepare for a playoff series. This is the sixth time a coach has blitzed him in a Game 1. That's a preparation and strategy issue. We completely went away from our strengths that worked in the second quarter and played to the Bucks' pace. The pace that a rookie, Brogdon, was dictating.

Kyle, for all his awesome play, is a complete bonehead on the court sometimes and even more so when things don't go his way. He needs to stop being such a mental midget and not get rattled when adversity strikes.

Carroll was complete ass. Ineffective on both ends.

Patterson hit an open 3 and played some good D in the second quarter, not much else.

We froze out DD, Ibaka and JV in the second half for no apparent reason. Those three were the only ones scoring for us today.

God, this team infuriates me sometimes.

This series is like the Wizards series all over again. I expect Bucks in 6 now.

We'll probably end up winning this series and I don't care. I'm done with having a coach that can't win a game one at home in the first round.

Lowry is our best player period...I know everyone is emotional right now and rightfully angry at Lowry for having a dud game. But at the same time us going 14-7 vs weak teams is not indicative of long term success. I don't understand people wanting Lowry gone and at the same time don't have a player to replace him with.

Could very well get swept or lose in 5.

Really missing Biyombo's toughness.

Some of us would prefer we blow it up if we were moving on from Lowry. That's a big if of course.
