Great game!

HUGE SHOT BY PAT C!

 

[Fairly-Hard]

Yeah this series looks to be moving toward 7 games.

Has Giannis had Covid? That or lingering effects from the vaccine? The talk at the start of the series was how he plays so hard he gets winded, but now they're questioning his early-game breathers. I noticed him laboring in the layup line pre-game today, and then he asked out 2 minutes into the game.

He had to go.....and this is exactly his quote, "tinkle".

In multiple games?

More likely, if he disappeared from view he was getting a hit of oxygen and used the bathroom break as a cover story.

Which begs the question, does the NBA allow oxygen tanks for the players on the sideline like the NFL?

Game 5 bump!

 

[DDolla]

Who wins the 2nd qtr normally wins the game

 

[HailBlazers]

Go Bucks!!

I don’t think Tucker has ever committed a foul in his life (without whining about it).

 

[Hoopguru]

Did I hear a Buck Snort?

 

[BigGameDamian]

Wow! Phoenix is really going to choke?

Bucks are just better. Suns didn’t choke. It’s just not their time. Paul had his chance for years in LA and couldn’t get to WCF. His time has passed.

 

[Tince]

So jealous of Milwaukee who has a handful of players who provide great height/strength for their position. Such an advantage that doesn't required them to always out scheme/talent teams.

 

[JoshuaHall]

Jrue Holiday… redemption game
His defense tho has been insane

 

[PDXFonz]

If They overturn the call on Ayton, wouldn’t it be Bucks ball out of bounds rather than a turnover since he stepped out after the whistle was blown?

 

[SlyPokerDog]

I predicted on the podcast that the Bucks would go down 0-2 then come back to win the series...so far so good

Nice job so far!

 

[Hoopguru]

200 million and cant make free throws!

So the bucks are going to choke then?

 

[PDXFonz]

Oh my goodness

 

[SlyPokerDog]

THAT SEQUENCE WAS FUCKING CRAZY!

 

[HailBlazers]

Defense wins Championships

 

[Hoopguru]

Fear the Dear! Both doe’s and bucks!

 

[DDolla]

Who wins the 2nd qtr wins the game

Called it… it’s always the 2nd qtr

 

[DDolla]

The Bucks top 3 players plays defense. Our top 3 just plays offense

 

[Tince]

Had Bud out coached Monty? Or has the team with superstars of greater size take advantage of their physical advantages?

With all those missed FT’s if the Bucks lost, this one would have been ANTETOKOUNMPO

 

[DDolla]

Dame needs team improvement he also need to play defense to win
