Kyrie and Horford aren't gonna make this easy.

Need to be so disciplined on both ends. Gonna have to knock down shots. Giannis, Midds and, Bledsoe can't have too many off moments.

Bucks in 6.

The way the Celtics did it, it really is not.

The Celtics post ASB went 12-12 with a negative net rating, including 3-10 against .500+ opponents, 1-10 if you take out 2 wins against the Oladipo-less Pacers who aren't really a .500+ team. Gordon Hayward had a nice game 4 against Indy but in games 1-3 put up 10/6/2 on 49% TS.

Not even saying the Celtics aren't gonna be tough, but can someone explain to me where this narrative that the Celtics have figured it all out is coming from, and that Hayward is rounding into form?

That narrative is coming from Celtics homers.They will come back to reality quick enough once we are up 2-0 against them :D

We've seen first hand what Tatum can do on the big stage, now they have Kyrie as well. Not a team you want to have hanging around late in the 4th quarter. Come out and fist **** them from opening tip.

If you’re trying to get tix use the Ticketmaster app. The site is trash, I was finally able to get an order through on the app though

Brook destroyed drummond at both ends but that was child's play. Big Al is a different animal and a bad match up for brook. Bud gotta go with giannis.

As a heads up. Tickets on sale at bucks.com/playoffs. Pretty reasonable prices considering they were charging the same for the first round.

When Brook has a bad match up we got Niko, Ers and DJ to choose from, we got this!

Bucks in 5. Bledsoe will continue to harass Kyrie Irving who shot a sparkling 38.8% from the field vs. Milwaukee this season.

That narrative is coming from Celtics homers.


I.E. the national media. The same group of people who will give you such takes as both "The Bucks are too reliant on the three" and "they don't shoot enough threes to keep up." They simply haven't seen the Bucks this year.

Boston was also 21-20 on the road, and they lost all three road games to a much inferior Bucks team last year. I think, given the Bucks success away from home, to beat them in a series a team is going to have to beat us in Milwaukee twice. Not impossible Boston does that, but I definitely wouldn't put money on it.

Return to Milwaukee Bucks
