PG: Nurse and Starters all star caliber choke job

I swear some posters would trade our entire team just to secure 1 meaningless regular season win. No self awareness at all.

We got what they want. Do you think we will see them around here when the Bucks lose and Giannis bolts outta Mil?

We want a title for sure but i would argue that we have what you want and that is to have an actual shot at a title each and every year for the foreseeable future. Those days are gone for you guys and i'm not saying that to be cruel it's just a matter of fact.

Sure thing Criswell...

Any Raptors fan would be banned on sight for posting this tripe on the Bucks board.

Enjoy our freedom. 8-)

Wow, the man played through it. Sure helps explains what I saw from him yesterday. Atypically cloudy-headed and erratic. Which fed into Ibaka. Ibaka needs Lowry to click.

I thought we did an excellent job on their big 2. Middleton's night was mostly off broken plays and some generous interpretations of the rule book by jumping into the defender's space. He had one easy drive to the bucket on a bad rotation by Ibaka (who was beyond horrible in pretty much every facet of the game of basketball last night). The silver lining is that we got away with covering Middleton with our short point guards and he couldn't punish them. 3/8 in almost 7 minutes of coverage against FVV and Lowry, and only 2 3s conceded (both misses), and 0 FTAs.

Our guys just can't score under pressure. Ibaka? Kyle? Siakam? Fred?

Last year Kawhi took on double and even triple D team so the rest of the guys would have open shots. Remember the many daggers from Fred???

Gasol and/or Powell might have made a difference, but not sure if it's enough to win. Tonight was Buck's back-to-back and we made the Wizards look like the playoff team. (yikes)

You guys read far too much into meaningless sample sizes. The Bucks shot 38.1% last night. They have shot it 48% on the year The team that can play a high level of defense and get the bucks off their game has a chance in the playoffs. We did that last night. We proved we have a shot.

Kyle shot 2 of 12. Serge was 2 of 15. Kyle apparently was puking so he might have had the flu. Fred was 5 of 14. Yes the bucks had something to do with this, but especially with Serge, he just missed open shots. We really missed Norm and Gasol out there against a truly great team.

The bucks are a fantastic team. They are the favourites. I found last nights game both disappointing because we lost and entirely encouraging because the bucks looked like a team that could be beat.

I am sure we can win a few games against the bucks in the playoffs but I just don't see us beating them in 7. Also fans should temper their expectations of Siakam, he still is very timid on offense especially against teams that can match his length.

Raptors in 7 when heathly.

I have to admit, I've been a bit critical of OG at times this year, but it seems strange to complain about a guy when he played one of his better games.

It's pretty wild that without Gasol and Powell and Ibaka and Lowry playing their worst games of the year going
a combined 4-27 the Bucks only won 1 quarter.

Ibaka never forces or takes contested shots he'll only shoot if he's open and he was 2-15 lol that might've been
his worst performance as a Raptor ever.

Lowry? was he sick? maybe he also has these clunkers that we're all accustomed to at this point. Give
the Bucks credit especially George Hill who's been a thorn to his side since his Indy days. Lowry also
bounces back when he gets these clunkers out of his system.

One thing that is clear is McCaw and RHJ are of no real value against the Bucks. Our defense is good enough we
need more offense and shooting. Boucher and Thomas need to be developed offensively here in the 2nd half
of the season they showed they could be really valuable.

George Hill had that one great series against Lowry when he was with the Pacers, and then Lowry has played well against ever since. I hope people remember that he balled out against the Bucks last playoffs and don't start running with this "length" boogeyman issue. I'd like to think KL was sick last night, but we've seen that game a bunch over the years where the refs just get into him and he starts taking cheap shots at the opposition. He's a sore loser and you have to take the bad with the good.

Lowry is an ultra competitive guy sometimes when you're like that you lose your cool. As for the refs him and
the team have been screwed over so many times over the years I don't blame him and Nurse leading the league
in Technicals but against the Bucks you can't lose composure and give up free points. As for George Hill he may
have had a few more good games against him after the Indy series but for the most part it has been a non issue.
Bucks fans did tell me the other day that Hill has improved.

These quotes are not good. He probably still remembers last year when Drake made him a meme at the free throw line.

Drake has to relax on the banter or ban him from Bucks games.

seriously, where is the humility. If the same team ran it back okay maybe there is a reason to act like a kid who has never won or achieve something meaningful in life.

I really think he is trying to make up for the game 7 shot he missed. We are all champs still, no need to rock two belts and diamonds all over, if this was a close out game and the raps were up then I get it.

do not give anyone motivation to play harder against the raptors, teams bring their best against the champs.

No Norman&Marc. It was a very good night, all things considered.

It is becoming obvious that Siakam will have a tough time scoring on Giannis(with Marvin Williams), Bam Adebayo and Ben Simmons in the playoffs..those players are built to stop him. So I wasn't too surprised to see Pascal struggle.

I had almost forgot that Serge was pretty much a non-factor against the Bucks in the playoffs..Last night, I can only assume that the length of Brook Lopez contesting his shots bothered him.

We're also trying to target Giannis behind the scenes.
The ambassador of the team can't be his foe.

I don't understand the choke part; did the Raptors build a sizeable lead at any point during the game?

People think that Siakam is going to magically be able to overcome length in the playoffs with "reps", thats not going to happen.
That would be like Embiid being able to suddenly dominate Gasol.

We will have to hang our hat on our defense neutralizing Giannis and our penetrating guards like Norm creating opportunities.
