thought he was terrific in the NCAA tourneyGrant Hill does a pretty good job commentating.
Short and/or to the leftHarden seems a bit .... ineffective.
Yeah, I appreciate his determination but this thing's over.Harden seems a bit .... ineffective.
Ain't over yet.Yeah, I appreciate his determination but this thing's over.
The Bucks will have nobody to blame but themselves if they let this game slip away. They've played lethargic at times and the pace they're playing at only helps the banged up team playing a handful of players (almost) all game long.Lots of the opposite of intensity out there.
KDThe NBA decides for one season they're throwing every player into a draft. The teams will stay together for one year and then disband again. You have first pick. Your only goal is to win a championship this year. Salary doesn't matter, and the future doesn't matter (injuries do).
You'd have to take KD right? I could see arguments for Anthony Edwards and Kelly Oubre, but it has to be Durant, right?
...and the Bucks haven't gotten the ball out of Durant's hands the entire 2nd half.Not one pass, Milwaukee...
Oy
look like the Sixers in the 4th Q last nightNot one pass, Milwaukee...

When?Obvious foul on Griffin there. NBA needs their narrative too much to call that.
Rebound on the second FT from Giannis. He was using both of his arms to wrap around Tucker's arm and hold him. Blatant.When?
Certainly a signature performance. That three over Middleton is going to be on his all-time highlights.I’m pretty delirious but that performance by KD was one of the best things I’ve ever seen. Speechless.
He's like 4 feet taller than a gimpy Harden who is guarding him and he decides to take a fadeaway.End of game Giannis is very bad.
i agree Harden deserves credit for going out there, but why in the world the Bucks didn't run offense through Harden tonight is insane. guy has a bum hamstring and you could see it, why not take advantage of itKevin Durant deserves all the praise he'll rightfully get after this game.
Gotta give it up to James Harden as well tonight. He had no business being out there, didn't play especially well, but he kept the offense on track enough to give noted sharp-shooters KD and Jeff Green a chance to win game 5.
That never, ever would get called there.Rebound on the second FT from Giannis. He was using both of his arms to wrap around Tucker's arm and hold him. Blatant.
This.End of game Giannis is very bad.
He's got one more loss in him.Bucks need to fire budenfolder on the spot. One of the worst coaching performances I've seen Ina while.
I thought it was pretty obvious, particularly that they called a foul for KD on the same reboundThat never, ever would get called there.
i can imagine Brad Stevens is salivating at his house trying to figure out how he can get out of his contract with Boston to go to Milwaukee and coach that teamBucks need to fire budenfolder on the spot. One of the worst coaching performances I've seen in a while.
If he retains or somehow gets another gig, he's got infinite losses in him.He's got one more loss in him.
I blame you for this.gruecd said:If the Bucks somehow manage to not win tonight, then:
(a) they don't even deserve to play game 6/7
(b) Bud should be fired
PJ will continue to guard Durant, but they can now send immediate double-teams. And as great as Durant is as a scorer, he's not the type of guy who makes his teammates better. He's not a playmaker like Kyrie and Harden. He'll take 30+ shots and score 30+ points. Just can't let some clown like Jeff Green or Landry Shamet go off for 20.
Toronto exposed this in the conference finals two years ago but the Bucks still haven’t come up with a plan B in the playoffs for their 2X MVP. It seems to me he’s not being properly coached.This.
He's an absolutely freak of nature but I don't think you can win built around him. He's passive when game's on the line (afraid to get fouled and have to go to foul line to decide a game)
