Probably a sweep. Maybe one game where it looks like the Bulls will have a chance to win only to lose.

I have the Bucks in 5. But wouldn’t be surprised if they sweep the Bulls.

The last time the Bulls beat the Bucks with Giannis in the lineup was 26-12-2017.

Gentleman's sweep MIL 4-1 CHI


Bulls have had a great season, no way they should hang their head. A little health and rounding out the roster next year + development of some good prospects makes them pretty competitive in the Playoff picture for a few years.
Cheers

Bulls are limping into the playoffs. Zach is probably at 60-70%. Caruso has missed the last few games with a back injury, Lonzo out for the season. Poor matchup too.

I’d be surprised if it went more than 5, sadly. Run it back next season

Well, the Bulls have been rebuilding and have put out some G-league rosters for the past few years. Not sure what value this comment really adds.

About as useless as saying the last time these teams met in the playoffs (2015), Bulls won in 6. Pretty Irrelevant.

One DeRozan explosion (maybe even Game 1) for the Bulls' lone win and Bucks in 5.

Bucks in 4. Holiday's defense and Giannis playing bully ball will pretty much sum up the series.

Gentlemens sweep.

This Bulls team is hurt and lacking some key pieces. They’ll get hot and take one game most likely.

Yay, Caruso-Allen rematch. Bulls hurt Giannis with a season ending injury in game 1, and then proceed with a sweep over Milwaukee

The Bucks in 5. The Chicago Bulls has looked quite medicore since the all star break and have strugggled to win against the better Teams in the NBA.Plus the Bucks have Giannis and Jrue Holiday could easily lockdown Zack Lavine,while also providing a solid offensive punch. They also have a deep bench. The only reason why I don't a full sweep is becasue I think Bucks may take it easy in one of these games and Chicago catches them off guard.
