The only negative about this series is going be the fact that Giannis will never request a trade to the team that eliminated him from the playoffs in 2 consecutive seasons.

Also, Kris Middleton’s head

How many times will Brook Lopez kick his leg out on a 3pt attempt this time around?

Crowder hit 45% of his three’s against the Bucks in last year’s series. We will need Ariza to have a similar output.

We win this game, the Bucks will have some major PTSD.

Strike first. Strike hard. No mercy.

Budenholzer will make a great assistant for Spo in the offseason.

SECOND IN!

I have decent amount of respect for the Bucks for not ducking us when they could have.

It's ironic that they may well have to pay the price for it

We’re even better equipped to wall off Giannis personnel wise, this year, then we were last year.

And say what you want about Spo, but defensive game planning in the playoffs is his bread and butter.

Them having Jrue instead of Bledsoe is a big boost. Better iso player and a more trust worthy shooter. But I think KNunn is going to be a much bigger factor for us this post season run. Going to need Dragic to bring out that same juice he had in the bubble, and Herro to be even better. Think the series is going to come down to how the guards perform. Should be fun.

Shadow realm loses its power at the end of the regular season.

Kinda poetic that Mia faces the Bucks.

Lots a back-stories and narratives to highlight.

I think 2 consecutive playoff matchups makes for an official rivalry, in my book at least.

I don’t fear dear, I mount them.

Heat in 5!!!!

I don't think we will get raped but it is certain that we have significantly less depth and a worst team than last year, plus we don't have the bubble advantage... that being said, we may get lucky again and a have number 2 3 4 and 5 best players in the series... there is no way to debunk Gianni's as number 1
