Injuries happen every year. Even last year Milwaukee lost its starting SG in the 3rd playoff game and was without Giannis for 2 full games in the ECF and yet it still won the title because it is so well constructed (plus they have Giannis). Middleton being out is a major blow to Milwaukee. If both teams were fully healthy Milwaukee would have won this series already as they are simply a better team with BY FAR the best player on the floor. Boston needs to win this game as that is its best shot a title in over a decade. They have to capitalize on Middleton being out.
Yeah, I guess then they should have just forfeit and let Milwaukee advance, right? Because they don't have Middleton so it's not fair 
What an idiotic take.
Strange, I seemed to see Middleton in street clothes all 7 games of the series.
I picked Boston in 7 before the series started. Hmm. Boston won in 7. Guess I was right.
