Bucks in 5, Celtics haven't fooled me this season. They are outclassed in this matchup

I respect our opponent and remain a little nervous.

That said, for the culture #BucksInSix.

Any updates on Brogdon? Can he go?

Here's a list of guys who played at least 6MPG in the playoffs for the Bucks during the last 7 game series:

Jabari Parker
Tony Snell
Thon Maker
Matthew Dellavedova
John Henson
Tyler Zeller
Jason Terry

I mean.... damn.


This can't be true. I kept being told the Bucks are the same team except for Bud and Lopez

Hill/Brogdon off the bench could be deadly going forward.

In my best Chris Farley impersonation, For the sweet mother of God!!! What is the hold-up?!?!?! Be kinda nice to know the series schedule lol. I'm assuming the league is waiting for the end of the Sixers game and will schedule the 2nd round matchups for Saturday and the other one on Sunday.

Met George Hill today and we're now best friends so I'm going to take that as Bucks in six, 120-104. Truly must win.

Been there done that

Their takes aren't worth reading simply because they're too fanatical ( there's a diff b/n being a fan and being a fanatic). I like the raptors board because they're a lot more knowledgeable, funny, and pessimistic which again is funny.

I can summarize the Celtics board:

"Celtics in 6. We beat them last year and all they added were Bud and Lopez whereas we added Kyrie and Hayward!!!"

Maybe I am wrong but the Celtics would scare me more if Kyrie wasn't playing. If we jump out to a 2-0 series lead I could see Kyrie telling coach Stevens and his teammates to go **** themselves and go into full hero ball mode. The series would be over quick if that happens.

So now the east semis are set, so we need to wait for west first round to finish before they tell us when the games are?

I think we were waiting on hockey actually. Maple Leafs lost so Toronto can play either Saturday or Sunday.

Well the proof is in the pudding

We played them 3 times this season.

Game 1, they were lights out, though we were terrible defending the 3, we only lost by 4 points
Game 2, I think we beat them comfortably +10 points
Game 3, Khris hits that 3, kyrie misses the layup, we win by a point

I think If we play well, they can't stay with us. If we don't, games will be close and they have more closers not to mention one of the best. Which is why i would love brog for this series.

Also i'm hearing that boston finally looked cohesive in their sweep and indiana ( i didn't watch) is a good prep team to play against. That may be true but i like that we can raise our level when required.

An nba series is long and usually favours the more talented side. I'm thinking we get them in 5 or 7 games.

Well, to be fair they have been inconsistent throughout the regular season. They did just sweep Indiana but they came from behind in a few games and they weren't exactly remarkable wins.
