Vintage Bucks game 2. Add it to our collection.
We got what we wanted from there.
Rest your bodies, watch film, adjust and start beating them at home.
Let's see what kind of atmosphere we can create this time around.

Stan Van Gundy sucks and I’ve always found him annoying. Failure as a coach as well.

This is a good point. Are we making a point to attack the paint or are they making a point to take away 3s? Also, grant Williams isn't some Giannis stopper. He's is a chubby stubby brick house. Go over or around. No straight through.

One thing. Old man Horford is playing 37 minutes. Giannis needs to put that **** back in his locker. He did it 3 years ago

Can't be Bucks-In-6 without losing two. Oh well. On to Game 3.

Game 2's are the new game 1's for us, apparently.

They tied 20th most 3s in a playoff game on a really high percentage and only scored 109. Just need Giannis to be patient and find open guys on offense and tighten the D just a little more

I think it took way too long for Giannis to settle in and his start was a big reason we lost but the Boston defence is pretty stout and we've got no one else you can really trust offensively. He's got to take jumpers people wont be comfortable with. Hopefully we found something with him in the second half but it is going to be ugly.

Side note: Grant Williams is a dirty af, been so all series. Does subtle little things

This team has been in far worse positions than going back home for two with a series tied. They're going to watch the game film and see this game was somehow still winnable when it shouldn't have been, but we had too many mental mistakes and they beat us to every loose ball. Feels like there were 10 opportunities to get it to within 10 in the last quarter and a half and then the whole game changes.

We have, but this time we are missing one of our best players

One time I would like the Bucks to be the hot team from 3 in the playoffs. Feel free to shoot 50 percent from 3 on Saturday

Well that was bloody embarrassing. Pull your fingers out for the next game, please.

Jrue will be making $112m over the next 3 seasons. He really needs to be better for us to win this series. Can't have him shooting sub-40 all series while making max money.

Yeah, as much heat as Gianni’s has gotten jrue was completely invisible. Can’t have that especially with Khris out

The longer this series goes the more it favors the Bucks, especially with all the games every other day now after game 3. I would bet major money the winner of game 3 will win the series.

Gianni tends to hesitate and play a little too slow to start games. 3rd quarter he bodied up everyone. If he just gets into his moves on the wings quicker itll make the defense react. Expecting better from him next game. And Brook too. Maybe shoot a few more threes, lol.

True and that game had pressure.

I hate talking about the refs , and they are not the reason we lost. But it is truly amazing how you can have all the grabbing , pushing and flopping on one end with no calls , but on the other end you can have a touch foul called. The consistency is horrible and I think the refs get caught up in the home energy. Plus of course the association wants it that way .
