The Hawks have proven over and over again they can win without Trae. Meanwhile the Bucks are paper thin. This looks bad for Milwaukee, but any team can potentially win 2/3

Bucks have been terrible on open and wide open threes in the playoffs, I guess there's a chance it's just variance and the odds gods will be smiling on us in 2 of the potential last 3 games?

Idk man, your guys are just not known as having a soft touch/being talented shooters, it's more like 'yea they can kinda shoot 3s too'. I wouldn't hope for better shooting, I'd hope for Hawks' worse shooting if I were you.

More shootarounds need to happen before reports are updated. I assume Trae plays Bogs will, and Cap will (eye injury not serious).

Giannis will be sadly out unless a miracle happens.

Really hard to predict the rest of this series with so many uncertainties for both teams. I would favor the team with two home games left but I can't believe the Hawks are in this position. Super bold pick by me to say that I think the winner tonight wins the series.

I think Atlanta goes to the finals, I dont trust Middleton and Jrue to win 2 out of the 3, they arent that consistent.

I wont do it at all. He might do more damage to that knee that is going to screw him for the rest of his life. Even if he has the determination to get back there, one mistake out there and he is going to put his playing career on the line. Not worth the price at all.


Also, no structural damage doesn't mean there isn't an injury there.

Milwaukee does have the talent and allstar while the Hawks don't have any except for team effort. Nate must make the proper adjustments as needed.

Does doubtful mean he is out? I guess maybe he sits out tonight for more rest/recovery. If they lose he comes back game 6 and if they win, maybe not comeback at all or game 7

I really think the bucks will try to play Giannis tonight. I think it’s a mistake. But I can see it Happening. He will be useless if he plays and could have long term damage. I didn’t want harden to play when Irving went down. But he went out there and played at half speed and it hurt the team. He was lucky to not injure himself more.
