Literally everyone thinks this season is about injuries. Its not a hot take or controversial opinion.

You quoted and responded to me. If my opinion infuriates you so much then don't comment. No need to get all worked up and lash out out in an all caps tirade.

Its basketball. Not that serious. The sun will come up tomorrow.


idk, deep down you know injuries happen every year, and you just can't let that go. I know you know that, that's your actual opinion man.

See how that works? I'm not giving you factual information about your own psyche. I live in your head now, so now I'll puff out my chest some more and tell you what YOU think.


This discussion is going beyond basketball and is just about personal attacks. So I will not engage.

Please review forum rules if you need further guidance. Thanks.

What a turn of events.

Guessing now Suns/Hawks Finals. Who would have imagined that at the start of the season?

Phoenix looking good for the title, IMO. I won't count out the Hawks, though, if Trae heals up.

Don't want to give up on the Hawks, but Giannis is so central to everything they do not sure the team can recover from that. And I don't think the Clips have the bodies/endurance to take 2 more games from the Suns.
Thank you Nico!

Don’t count out the clips. Crazy turn of events have happened all playoffs. We could very well have a Clips vs Hawks finals. That’s a little more unpredictable of a series

Middelton and Bucks won game 4 last year against Miami without Giannis and they have Jrue now too. I like their chances in game 5 & 7 at home especially with hobbled Trae and who knows whats wrong with Capela.

Jrue looks like he forgot how to play offense and he seems to get cooked far more on defense from what i remember.

Watching Jrue in the 18 playoffs in Nola to now he isnt even half the player he was

I dont know why teams go out to sign obvious scrubs like Jeff Teague tho what a waste of a roster spot

Good guys BLEW OUT the bad guys tonight without Trae. I don't want to hear about Giannis's injury. He was getting blown out at the time he was hurt. All the Hawks have to do is win one at home and one on the road. And we will. My prediction of Hawks in six is going to come true.

Bucks defense is as overrated as I expected going into this series. We can do anything we want whenever we want to them. They have no answer to our team now that we are getting people like Reddish healthy.

If the Hawks were fully healthy for this series we would have won in five. Another gentleman's sweep like the Knicks series.


Real mouthy now, huh.

Tell us how the ref purposely tried to injure Trae though.

Bucks fans were only joking at the fact that Trae stepped WAY back ONTO a standing persons foot and blamed him

Nobody wanted him hurt


Sorry, I know you are one of the good ones but I saw and the other Hawks fans saw the comments made by other Bucks here and on your board. You guys as a whole threw a party that he got hurt. It was classless. I'm not going to celebrate Giannis getting hurt. That's just not cool.


Why do you **** lie all the time?

We saw your clown posts talking about the ref tried to injure Trae. On some baby ****.

Youre just trying to say this to salvage the precious 2nd round win.

In reality every Bucks fan will bring up the Giannis injury everytime this playoffs is brought up. Whether you want to accept it or not.

We'll see how your team looks without its MVP.


Oh, so now you're in my brain more. Got it, but again, take the L. A ship is a ship. When we lose in the playoffs, I don't bitch about refs, I don't bitch about injuries. They're part of the game. You telling me how I feel, is nothing but projecting on your part, and as shown earlier in this thread, you're still clearly insecure about your own team. So, as I said earlier in this thread, god bless.


You want to pretend injuries don't play a major role in the playoffs. I do.

I think more fans agree with me than you. But have your own opinion.

This season was determined by injuries and deep down you know it.


Brooklyn evened out.

Harden - Came in fat. Of course he was going to have a hamstring injury eventually.
Kyrie - unlucky. Truly.
Durant - Lucky that there were no lingering Achilles effects from being played into the ground.

I haven't lied once. What drugs are you on? Drunk from losing the game I guess? I saw the posts on here and the Bucks board when Trae got hurt. People were celebrating it. Don't lie.

Crazy playoffs, very unpredictable with all these injuries. You think you know whos going to win beforehand, but these injuries have caused this years championship to be up in the air. It's truly wide open for anyone to win.

I guess its safe to say now the team with less injuries is gonna win the chip. :lol:

No one's afraid of Trae that they'd cheer for his injury. The Matt Ryan of superstars.

Im definitely here for the Bucks fans vs. Hawks fans going at it. Two fan bases that historically haven’t supported their team now going hard in the paint at each other.

...what does that even mean? Trae's a future HOF player with a MVP? :lol:

Notice you didn't disagree with me. The posts speak for themselves. A lot of Bucks fans were happy he got hurt. Meanwhile Hawks fans are hoping Giannis is ok. Little bit of a difference.

I said before the series started Hawks in six and I haven't seen anything yet that's changed my mind on the outcome. If you want to randomly bring up other sports to compare to this Hawks team have fun. This Hawks team is real. Believe that.

Not superstar enough to ever really matter. Matt Ryan in the HOF? Yeah right. :lol:

I already said you're lying. No need to reiterate it. If you want to prove that Bucks fans were celebrating that Trae got injured, you go find the posts.

This Hawks team wouldn't get past Durant. Wouldn't stand a chance against a healthy (and engaged) Bucks team.

What does this mean? I have never heard bad things about the hawks fans, and the bucks have one of the most active boards here. If you are talking about people in Wisconsin supporting the bucks, sadly that's true. We have a die hard fan base, but there is a large band wagon fanbase because the Packers come first, brewers come second, then badgers and Marquette, and then the bucks. Before Giannis or in early Giannis years, you legit couldn't get bucks gear in store unless you went to the bucks proshop.
