Home teams usually get the favorable calls. With this bubble though, it’s interesting to see how the calls go.

Calls are going to go in aggressors' favor. I don't think NBA or refs have a horse in this race, at all. In fact NBA would love to see this series go game 7 triple overtime for extra viewership.

In the meantime it's coaches job to call out FT disparity esp. in the playoffs. Poor Nate is just doing his job. GG


He’s also doing his other job: being a bad coach...he does that well

ahhhh nice, a Bucks fan. Plotting the storylines for when we upset you guys, I see.


Predicting the future. The Bucks (if they get past Orlando) will be in foul trouble throughout the games, but will get meaningless calls down the stretch if the game is already out of reach, so people can argue "oh look the FT disparity wasn't that bad."

In a league that actually had a ref skewing games, which then squashed the FBI investigation implicating others, immediately after coming into possession of the evidence. A league that featured the Kings getting completely hosed in 2002.

I do really like your team though. Not saying their success is completely related to this.






Bucks fans already mad in the GB about the calls we will eventually get over them next round

I speak for myself only. One fan - not other Bucks fans.

I mean, I'm never that confident, but at the same time we're up 3-0 and I feel we're the superior team.

So yeah, we should sweep them tomorrow. It'll be important to crush their spirit early though. Brogdon gonna be a pain in the ass again.

I think so most of the teams in the bubble so far in an elimination game have tried hard for about a quarter and a half and then give up. Also the team thats getting swept is usually the lower seeded team and would have their crowed behind them to will them to a win but without them I think its very hard.

I'd like to think a Jimmy Butler led team will smell blood in the water tomorrow and get the broom out.

I want to see the killer instinct take over.

Fulgore mode.

After watching two series sweeps with the Raptors and Celtics, I'd hope that'd also motivate them to end it tomorrow.

Fight hard and finish this off.

I never count a Pacers team out. They're scrappy and can take one from us, but we should be able to sweep them. That said, who the hell knows?

Closing a team out is the hardest thing to do in any series.

Jae Crowder Day-To-Day
Derrick Jones Jr. Day-To-Day
Andre Iguodala Day-To-Day

Are these accurate?
