Sorry man. Take Monday off?

As a Bucks fan, I'm really looking forward to this series. We needed a low key "tough" matchup to give Brogdon and Mirotic a chance to get back into a rhythm with the rest of the team. We'll need that for Toronto. They are very, very good.

Is Brogdon expected to be back for game 1?

Also congrats on the Bucks 2nd playoff series win this century!!

I am expecting a pretty competitive series. Hoping Smart can be back sometime during it

[brackdan70]

Celtics must win one game in milwaukee in order to win this series. Either game 1 or 2. They can't be down 0-2 and expect to win the series. They can't do that.

Usually game one is the feel out game, but that can't be case for the celtics. They have to come out in game one attacking on offense, and defense do everything possible to win the game. If they do that, the pressure now goes to the bucks.

Win game one celtics. You have a chance to win this series despite what people are saying. The media, fans etc.

Cs need to win at least 4 games to win the series, but take it one game at a time

Was one of my posts deleted ? . The one about the celtics schedule.

Yes. That post was a Duplicate of one that had been made, just a few posts ahead.
You have been told about this, on more than one occasion.

Pay attention to what has been posted.

In my multi-decade experience, a best of seven game series requires 4 wins - UNLESS one of the teams forfeits in protest because 1) the other team’s “mega-star” shoots from distance like Ben Simmons and/or at a 4th grade level; and 2) the refs corruptly do not call his travels on every other play or offensive fouls on 2 out of 3 plays.

Who’s going to be saltier? Bucks fans when Giannis leaves or Jazz fans after Hayward left?

Honestly, thank you— this is a good troll. You are the first Bucks fan capable of actually trolling well.

The rest of your fellow fans are **** pathetic, trying to troll while feigning that they're white knighting [while being incapable of detecting sarcasm] while preaching that Giannis and the Bucks are flawless. Its just sad.

We need to defend the 3 well. Bucks have players who can hit shots, especially given all the attention that Giannas draws when he attacks. Let Giannas go one on one.. just guard that 3 pt line.

[MagicBagley18]

Maybe because I’m fiending for the game but I must say I never thought I’d hate the bucks and most of the fan base here as much as I do. Especially so quickly. All year I thought they were a great story and it was good that the franchise is relevant finally.

Now I want to decimate and humiliate them. They are defending this team and rightfully so because as fans we must but they think this team is like an all time once in a generation monumental phenomenon.

I believe, it will be a single coverage. If we double, we will lose more than likely cause there will be too many wide open 3s. So I could say I'm sure that it will be 1v1 the entire series unless it goes really south and Brad decides to switch it up(really south meaning Giannis scores 40 a game)...

It's product of them being irrelevant for too long, imo.. As some noted they sound/write like the 6ers from last year. Exactly the same way, tbh....

[SLCceltic]

But they wont admit for his size and what he does on the court is skilled in his own ways. It's really simple to see how great he really is and is ridiculous seeing peoples comments. He is the MVP this year.

Agree. He is the MVP

AND I would really appreciate your thoughts on Semi Ojeleye, is there a better Defender in league vs Yonniss ??

Yea good point and I hope this series goes the same way. I understand bc of freaks greatness it’s a different animal but nikola mirotic Ilyasova George hill all guys we have toasted in The playoffs before and guys that they rely on heavy and this with whom they wish to place their faith....and die on the historical all time hill ? I’m missing something.

I know series will be a tough one and they are very well coached but come on

Hating that entire forum when I loved those dudes in years past is something I really didn't see coming.

They pivoted hard.

Yeah, not sure what happened. Last years series, 7 games, the whole Terry vs Drew Bledsoe thing, it was still all good on Realgm. One 1st place season and all of a sudden it's like playing the Raptor or Sixers? I get it, you could very well beat us, but win something first, then talk trash. Something Raptor fans never learn. Regular season stops mattering when the playoffs start.

That’s the whole thing....I understand them being favorites and I understand them having higher expectations now that they finally won a playoff round but this idea that it won’t be a series or we are insulting them to think we have a chance or wasting time by showing up on the same court as them is laughable.

They say we are arrogant- the reason I am an most of us are feeling confident is because we see matchups that have been exploited by Stevens as recently as last years playoffs plus other years and think we can have success again. It’s based a lot on past experience with Stevens and his ability to attack mismatches and really take advantage of things in our favor

Since we were talking about refs and everything and how the NBA gets to treat certain players differently than others, here's an interview with Tim Danaghy from 4 weeks ago:
