Man, Monte’s post-game locker room talks get me pumped. That’s a leader who you want to blast through a wall for.
[quote=“dkb964”]156-1 Celtics are frauds when pressure is put on them. They would have been toast if Luka was not stupid enough to foul himself out. Enjoy this ONE finals win. There will never be another with the Js and the Celtics cant afford stacked team.[/quote]

Interesting why you would say that when the majority of the NBA pundits are rooting for Giannis & the bucks to win it all.

The Bucks have had the benefit of the whistle most of these series so I don't think Bucks fans have any right to complain about favorable calls.


Nope.


Game 4
Bucks 24-29
Suns 16-19

Game 3
Suns 11-16
Bucks 20-26

Nope proved you wrong here, stats don't lie as you can clearly see Bucks got the benefit of the whistle the last two games.

Suns should have won this one and I'm not blaming this loss on that but it's ridiculous to think that the Bucks haven't had the benefit of the calls the last two games.

Giannis, CP3, Cam, Booker, seriously attractive group right there (nh).
It's all good. Just be true to yourself. You can be h. Or not.

Telegenic....that works, too.

Those are NOT fans ...the fans are outside....bucks fans can’t afford those tickets. Those are corporate cats and rich even seekers...real fans out side rooting their guys on


Yeah, that's not true. Tickets really weren't that expensive and I know plenty of average fans who went. We're not talking about MSG or Chase center here

My bad...$730-6200 when I checked...and I ain’t going alone...so my bad Elon....for me thats tooo damn much for a few hours

Just glad the Bucks got the win despite Crowder on the ground flopping like a fish for the 2nd half and complaining about the most obvious fouls. Don't get me started on Booker's unlimited foul cheat code...

My friends actually got some for ~$350, so not too bad. Probably hard to get now tho

I've changed my pick from "Suns in 6" to "Suns in 7".

Gotta see Phoenix lose on their home court before I believe the Bucks can win the series.

The Bucks won, but this still blows my mind

I should have added the coaching was bad too.

Hey, I enjoyed it but it was a pretty low quality game by finals standards.

Bucks foul the least out of any team in the league and their numbers are right about at their regular season averages. PHX numbers are skewed by intentionally fouling Giannis. Nice try, champ.

350 each...so that’s better than I paid for wiz first round but I want to actually sit in decent seats...rather be outside then in nose bleeds....I was going to come to it Milwaukee but didn’t see anything below 730...and I checked...

I'm assuming there's some joke here that is going over my head
