If the Bucks lose 1st round, I think Giannis asks for a trade. Even though MIL has done everything for him.

At some point you have to blame the performance on the court on the players on the court. Every loss is not the coach's fault and every win isn't because of the players.

He would be absolutely perfect in Houston or San Antonio

Hate to say it but New York and Miami are other good options if they could pull it off

Dallas would be very interesting. Kyrie-Giannis-AD

Of course, we can joke about the Lakers getting him to. But I can't imagine the Bucks GM is Nico Harrison 2.0... right??

This Pacers fast-paced scoring attack is still pretty lethal. They won't be a pushover for anyone.

Wow. The Bucks without Dame might be the worst of the 16 playoff teams.

Can't wait to see Giannis on HOU next year.

Giannis really is just allowed to bullrush guys and get a foul call

And then also still takes like 20 seconds between FTs  ::)

LOL the crowd is chanting the countdown for the FTs too  :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

May feel different as round one unfolds but as of now I like our side of the bracket.  Will be interesting to see if Lillard?s return makes a difference. Game 1 blowout doesn?t really mean much. Bucks still able to get one of two in Indy and that?s what matters. But? Indy looks very good today.

I am curious if the Bucks decide to blow it up, what would happen to Lillard?

Bucks brought Kuzma in to be the third option and he's chipped in a completely empty box score with the exception of two fouls.  Wow.

Kind of like last night's game, one man (AD/Giannis) show while the rest are mostly duds

The Bucks giving up Middleton and AJ Johnson for Kuzma never made any sense to me. To make matters worse, Johnson had a really strong end to the season and might actually end up being a real player. Bucks front office has been garbage during the Giannis era.

I think there would be takers for Lillard. MIA, MIN, ORL come to mind.

90 seconds left, down 15. Perfect time for Doc to challenge a foul!

Kawhi being healthy makes the Clips a real darkhorse threat in the West IMO
