They have size in all the key positions and Brooke should feast in the middle if the play it right! If the Bucks arent mental midgets they should win in 6 or 7.

Yeah just not against this lot mate, too much firepower in KD alone forget about the other 2

Brown + Timelord healthy and this is almost a series

They won’t shoot as well when they have to defend more than one person. They’ll be tired and won’t be able to hit a thing, hopefully.

Plant Kyrie on his ass, a clean foul but make it count.

we're playing without one of the best defenders/rim protectors in the league (time lord) and durant is arguably one of the 10 best offensive weapons of all time..
Nothing wrong with having a different opinion - as long as it's done respectfully. It'd be lame if we all agreed on everything :)

Grant Williams just tipped away a perfect dime from Jabari to Payton underneath.

Send him to the moon.

Nice pass, Jabari. I know it's your first time, so I'll give you a break. Dunno if it was to Pritchard, though. Either way, probably a missed shot anyway.

You aren't allowed to breath in his direction, so you are correct.

He'd have 25 points without FT'S..

Nothing arguable about it, other than top 10 is selling him way too short.

Nesmith should start next game, to maximize what little chance we have left
