Bucks (1-1) at Celtics (1-1) Round 2 Game 3 5/3/19

[ozgod]

This board is hot garbage

It usually is when the team is losing 

[Ogaju]

Giannis on the line and the announcers say Giannis just outside the line. ****!!!!

[SCeltic34]

Watching this has been an affront to my senses.  Refs as usual have been awful.

[Atzar]

The Bucks are basically the same team as last year except they added Nikola Mirotic and Brook Lopez and Giannis got better.

Why can't the Irving-led and Hayward Celtics beat them?

"Giannis got better" is a pretty big understatement, haha.  If he isn't the best player in the league right now, he's second.  He's a nightmare on both ends. 

We can beat them, but it will take great basketball.

Yes the team has played bad, but where is this crowd? Feels like they've been quiet all night long. Even Brown's dunk on Giannis didn't seem that loud. Is it the broadcast?

[RMO]

Can we go through Hayward in the next game?

(Sorry double post)

If Marcus doesn’t come back next game they are done. Too many guys getting lit up, crappy defense, no heart.

GIANNIS WAS ON THE LINE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yep, heel was clearly in the zone. But don't worry guys, what we're seeing is all make-believe

Obviously we need to boo the team. That's the answer.

Man, the refs aren’t why we’re losing.  We CANNOT get any easy looks against them.  Obviously that will wear the team down over time.  It’s basicslly threes or nothing.

You really love to absolve everyone but the players of any and all blame

Yeah, it's pretty ridiculous. Per him, Giannis and Milwaukee are getting a fair whistle, even when any non-blind person can see two different officiating standards out there, and the NBA coach's job is essentially minimal, especially in the game. It's nonsense, of course, per usual.

Come on.  It’s simple, they can get consistently better shots.  Over the course of a game, the cream rises to the top.  The refs are ONLY a story here.  Nowher else.

I'm glad you're here to tell us all what's rational and what isn't.

The bucks are absolutely kicking our ass.  The truth hurts.

That would explain your aversion to it

Oh, yeah it's make believe!!!!

[Ogaju]

BRAD is a useless game day coach. Has absolutely no idea how to work the refs or the crowd or his team. Garbage.

Watch the game.  When was the last easy shot this team got?  It’s not rocket science.  They look like the much better team.

It's not easy to make layups when you're being body checked, so they stopped trying. Not rocket science

Except that’s make believe.  That’s not happening AT ALL.

Alright all clear-seeing one

It’s frankly very weak to blame the refs.  It will not be any kind of story.

[JSD]

Could these commentators be any worse?

[PhoSita]

At least they're losing to a team that has earned it by being great all season.  I like the Bucks.  Really appreciate what they've built.  I hope they make the Finals and give the Warriors a tough series.
