Pretty much this. They should have won both games comfortably but they've been playing with their guard down. Just bad habits that you can't carry over into the next round. Hopefully they wake up.

I predicted Bucks in 5, but I think it goes 6 or 7 now... the Bulls have realized Giannis can bleed, they're gonna fight to defend home court in a different way than if they were 0-2 and not even in either game. Sleepwalking has consequences.

+17 and giving Middleton a headache. That's the real story.

Since after the 1st quarter of game 1, the bulls have been in the driver seat the whole series .

I know this is a hot take but after watching the last two games I don't think the Bucks are real contenders this year. Lost tonight and looked pretty underwhelming in game 1. And it's not like the Bulls are some tough 6th seed team with huge matchup problems for the Bucks. Technically the Bulls are a negative SRS team lol.

I thought maybe the Bulls would win one game at home so this was a big win to get on the road.

Who would've thought that the Bulls would be more competitive in their series than the Raptors are with theirs? Even in Game 1, the Bulls were taking it to the Bucks. The Raptors are just getting demolished, even when they had their full lineup out there.

My favorite is when Bulls fans, specifically, cry about Giannis' whistle when the player they worshipped is literally where superstar treatment began.

I’ve been saying the bucks have been the most overrated team in the league with how many people have penciled them as the favorites in the east. They have not looked that good this season. Celtics, Heat, Nets, and Sixers would take them out in a series.


Keep that same energy when you're 2-2 playing a game 5 in Boston.


Okay buddy you too :lol:

Got lucky last year KD nearly beat the bucks by himself to change the whole narrative about how the bucks are different. Perennial chokers in the years past before.


Don't think there was any choking last year, in fact, we got a ring. Rings aren't lucky. Imagine that.

Bulls should be up 2-0. Completely outplayed the Bucks so far.

First playoff game in Chicago since Derrick Rose? Wow gonna be scenes in Chicago man.

Jordan never fully sprinted and barreled into players like Giannis.

Not comparable at all.

Your defense is terrifying, making Durant look mentally challenged. Going to be an insane post season.
