MIlwaukee is easily our best matchup among the top 4 teams, they're a one man team and we can handle one guy. Miami shoots the lights out from deep, Philly has Embiid, and Boston has three elite defenders to throw at Zach and DeMar.

Wanted to check in and see how this has held up for you. Seems like the Bulls are getting slapped despite it being their best matchup.

Well we won a playoff game despite massive injuries and covid protocols and we were supposed to barely be in the play-ins before the season started. Good luck with Boston.

DDR can't have this series thrown on him nor should he. He gave everyone on the team plenty of open looks because the bucks 100% took him out of the game tonight and no one helped out. He also carried the only win in the series when he had more help. This isn't on DDR its on his weak teammates without a doubt

Your fanbase is classy. If this happened to my team the board would've had a meltdown. I was here for Derozan. Respect to you guys. Hopefully your guys can develop defensively this summer.

Hawks and Bulls have been similar in many ways but one is that they've approached the playoffs as if it's a regular season game.

Good sportsmanship shown by both teams.

Most of everyone predicted a sweep this series, there really shouldn't be any bad blood on either side. Against the Celts I expect that to be a more heated series for the Bucks. Celts are tough and hungry (like a younger Bucks team)

Sorry but this was the most boring series this playoffs. Didnt even watch a single minute of it

The whole Allen on Caruso thing sort of fizzled out...

God I hope we actually get a good series between Boston and Milwaukee

I’m glad you came to comment on the series without watching a single minute of it

Well i only watched tonight's game to check the Bucks before our matchup but it was boring indeed. I didn't learn anything about the Bucks but i learned that the Bulls are not going to be contending anytime soon.
They are the worse defending team I've seen this season i think. This was like a regular season game. No toughness, no hunger. They seemed like they are happy to just play in the first round.

It should have. I mean that was something I guess for a minute... I think the Bucks and Grayson handled it poorly but after that game... let it go. Bulls answered back even to the point that soft Vuc gave him an elbow... its over. Should have been a long time ago. Hard foul, that was a standard foul any 90's Bull's team would have given imho. Unfortunate outcome? Yeah for sure but Dwight Howard destroyed Rose harder on 2 occasions and there was not that big of an outcry. Mitchell Robinson injured Pat Williams in the 5th game and the outcry wasn't that big. Grayson is just really really unlikable so it had more feet than it deserved.

I'll try to remember this for next year. I wonder by then what the next excuse will be to deflect blame off of him. At some point the finger needs to be pointed at himself and not others

Who wins the series?
