NBA can be so whack sometimes.

Giannis come on down! We can team up now without any pressure.

What are the ramifications in the event of Heat sweeping Bucks?

What a comedy of officiating errors in the final ~10 seconds.

Butler looked to be fouled in the corner on the trap, and if not fouled, Hill had his heel out of bounds anyway. Then the awful call on Dragic...capped off with a literal touch foul on Giannis with no time on the clock.

The Giannis foul was so apparent though. It was the right call despite the time on the clock.

Giannis...is it time to worry?

Ya it was the right call, Giannis gave a bonehead foul

Butler had a pretty bad game overall, and a disastrous last couple of minutes. He's damn lucky Giannis fouled him there because it really bailed him out of a bad game so he could be the "hero" again.

For parts of that game guys were being mauled and no calls we being made. Then all of a sudden the refs grabbed the spotlight in the dying seconds and called everything by the letter of the rule book.

So we lack a true superstar but have elite role players, secondary stars and coach and Giannis is a superstar but lacks a good supporting cast and coach...

Hmm

Giannis leaving the Bucks looks a lot more realistic now doesnt it

Is that the first playoff game in history to end with a free throw and zero time on the clock?

I wouldn't be surprised.

Thats a hard L to accept if you're a Bucks fan.

pingpongrac · Post #1656 » by **pingpongrac** » Thu Sep 3, 2020 1:51 am

Also, how is Giannis only playing ~36 minutes in the playoffs?

Since the ball was already at the top of its arc, that is most often let go.

Dennis 37 · Post #1658 » by **Dennis 37** » Thu Sep 3, 2020 1:51 am

I never used to watch other team's playoff games. I had no interest in watching a game that included Paul Pierce, Alonzo Mourning, Bruce Bowen, Chris Bosh (Miami), Vince Carter (New Jersey), or any other player whose integrity or sportsmanship could be called into question.

I find the East playoff to be devoid of players who I consider interfere with my enjoyment of the game.

Klayforspicy · Post #1659 » by **Klayforspicy** » Thu Sep 3, 2020 1:52 am

even down 0-2 i think theres a good shot to win the east
