Neither one of these teams is playing their best basketball and this is still a very competitive game. Feels like the Bulls could get swept while making every game a nail biter.

Jrue Holiday first half: 6 points, 2 assists, 5 turnovers
Khris Middleton first half: 3 points, 3 assists, 3 turnovers

Changed my vote to Bucks in 6. They look ****

Catching up with this one after the Sixers game, looks like DD and Lavine came to play tonight.

Do Jrue and Khris know this is a real game and not a scrimmage??

Bulls with a 14 point lead at halftime was not on my bingo card for tonight, but I'll take it.

Agreed there. I mean I actually do still like him.....at 20 mill. On a 4-5 year MAX that just screams albatross. He's not a true MAX guy.

A disingenuous take after nearly losing to a fish-out-of-water team. This is, of course, after the Bucks showed their true colors of cowardice by avoiding the Nets in the first round. The irony that they nearly choked to their hand picked opponent wasn’t lost, I promise you that.


There's a lot of dumb packed in here.

I never felt it was in doubt. Now, you may say I'm crazy for that, but it's true.

The 2nd and 3rd sentences are baseless nonsense of course.

Milwaukee might have lost so much respect for the Bulls after game 1 that they've completely taken this one off but at some point they're going to have to do just enough to actually wrap this up, taking an L here should be quite the wake up call

Despite the game one loss, the Bulls have looked like the better team so far this series IMO.

Bulls are finally playing with that early season grit and grind.

Shame we're missing Lonzo.

We'll lose this series, but it looks like it'll be a dogfight.

Lavine hate is strong in this forum. If Tobias Harris can get a max, Lavine can too. Don't forget he was in the mvp conversation the first couple months of the season before he had the knee injury.

But the consensus is that Harris' max contract is one of the worst contracts in the league :-?
I don't think your argument is nearly as convincing as you thought it'd be :lol:

OMG Lavine what a move.
