Giannis is basically the world's best magnet out there attracting 3 and 4 Bulls even without having the ball.
On offense he is just trying not to touch anybody because the Refs really love the flops tonight.

Denying him the paint this way it just spares his energy so he has more to give on defense.
In the first two games he was atleast driving with the ball to score.

+36 with Giannis on the floor.

Only Giannis and Curry have such ridiculous gravity in the game.

DeRozan did not shoot 6-25 again tonight.

Bucks Pride showed up big tonight.

Yeah, I know the Bulls aren't great. Still, Milwaukee made a statement. They are not going quietly to anyone this postseason.

The Bulls are the worst team to make the playoffs this season and it has nothing to do with talent, they simply have no heart and no fight

I said before the game that not only does losing Middleton make no difference but I’m certain the Bulls would lose this series even if Giannis didn’t play

The difference in defense, offense and coaching is night and day, so what else is left that could possibly keep the game close? Effort…well the Bucks have shown more of that too

Bulls fans used to say Boozer was a bad defender, but Vucevic makes Boozer look like Mutombo. Why on earth does Donovan have him guarding Giannis? Even when he backs off and gives him room, Giannis takes 1 dribble and still blows past him

On offense they look confused, now the Bucks are really good defensively but the Bulls are lost, no one wants to take good shots, they’re passing up open looks for worse looks.

How many 3’s are Vucevic and Caruso going to brick this series? You’re open for a reason, run a different play? Every shot is hitting the front of the rim, did they come back home and start partying after their game 2 win?

This series ends 4-1, they don’t have the heart to come back like the Grizzlies did yesterday. I know they won’t, but they should hit the reset button this off-season and try to get rid of pretty much everyone except for Ball, DeRozan and Ayo

The Bucks could have gone scoreless the entire 4th quarter and they’d still be up 90-73 with just over 2 minutes left, that’s embarrassing

The farther the series goes the better the Bucks play. It's happened in almost every series with Bud as a coach.

The best passer since Giannis' draft.

If the Bucks went scoreless in the 4th quarter they still would have won by 9, that’s embarrassing. I’m convinced the Bulls were partying after game 2 and thought they’d accomplished something because almost every shot was hitting the front of the rim
