Knuck if you Buck......... Bucks v Hawks Eastern Conference Finals

[RubioTheCruel]

Was trae that injured that he couldn’t play?

He got the bone bruise on Sunday, those things take a long time to heal. Depending on how deep it is it wouldn't surprise me if he can't play game 6 either; he'll probably give it a go no matter what since they can be eliminated.

I wouldn't expect him to be fully healthy out there for a while

Bud coaching a little better with a more traditional lineup

Thats the crazy thing, this mf was a great coach in Atlanta and had a team led by Paul millsap and al horford (good players but not elite) to 60 wins, then 48 the year after that.

Just seen the numbers of Lopez

 

[Thavoiceofthevoiceless]

We need a rebounding specialist bad.

Isn’t that Capela

That’s essentially what Capela is considering as he’s limited offensively and can’t do much else.

After going 4-7 from 3 in the second quarter I thought them bums would fizzle out but they went 9-22 from 3 in the second half

problem is bucks outscored them 66-36 in the paint for the game

bucks better attack the paint from start to finish on Saturday

Hawks are soft!!!!

Didn't post during the game, but I like when players like Bobby Portis go off for big games like this because you know they can be capable of having performances like this often if they get out of there own head.

you dont find brooke lopez playing a traditional center role and dominating "exciting"? these playoffs are one of the best in recent memory, sans the injuries. young guys who you never thought + vets proving they can still dominate in important games. I've been entertained

Hes a nets fan

JC and Capela gotta step up in the post. Last night also showed why I wouldn’t run OO at center long term.

Size matters and the Bucks abused us with it in the post last night.

100% agree. If you a basketball fan, it shouldn't matter

 

[philmonroe]

The Hawks get blown out tonight. Role players pay better at home.

Connaughton
Portis
Forbes

They all eat tonight

You called it props.

 

[old pig]

So you just watch basketball because of the stars?

I agree…definitely was up until a point…but this felt like the last straw…I’m just not as worked up about seeing the hawks play the bux when neither team is at their best or to see either of these weakened teams in the finals against phoenix…trae or giannis come back and it’s a different story

 

[O.iatlhawksfan]

Hawks gotta make Lopez a liability on defense again, they were just straight up attacking him to the rim, at the end of the day he’s 7 feet. They have to make him choose between defending the guy with the ball or the guy who’s rolling off the pick and roll, that’s where they had success

 

[get these nets]

Facts. That's why when the first round started the Lakers were playing on the prime channels and other matchup were on ESPN 6
