Another Rendition Becoming Tradition | Official HEAT (#8) vs. Bucks (#1) 1st Round Series Thread

[funkee]

Jrue holiday and Middleton are terrible decision makers, especially holiday. Milwaukee won game 2 by moving the ball and pounding it inside. Last night holiday especially decided it was his time to shine and started ballhogging. Ball just dies in his and middleton’s hands. They don’t involve Lopez or Allen on offense enough. And coach bud has to go even if they win this year. This stupid ass drop defense just gives up open shot after open shot. This team would kill with a coach like udoka or mike brown.

I think the Bucks were overconfident and took a gamble that they can win this game without Giannis playing

Yup. I 100% believe he could have played game 3 but they stupidly tried to sneak a win without him.

Supposedly he was practicing before he got on the team bus, so I assumed that he was going to play.

Yup. If Ja Morant can drop a 45 point triple double with a fukked up hand, Giannis definitely could have came in and dominated with a back bruise. The Bucks wanted to be cute trying to load manage this nikka in the playoffs and got punished for it.


I still think the Bucks can win this series without him, but they'd be stupid to keep trying it.

Giannis is bricking FTs

He’s back

 

[Frump]

I still think Giannis is hurt badly

You don’t sit your best player when the series 1-1 game 3 on the road knowing if you lose then the next game is a must win on the road just to make sure he’s 100 percent

You sit him in a game like that because he was physically unable to play and not doing well at all

His presence will obviously give them a lift, but I’d imagine that he’ll be moving around gingerly. They were banking on being able to dispose of Miami without him and give him extra time to rest before the next round, can’t play with fire anymore and risk going down 3-1.

On the bright side he’s been doing court work the last few days and it’s been almost 10 days since the fall

But it’s do or die now. Bucks can’t go down 3-1

 

[Thavoiceofthevoiceless]

Giannis being back tonight doesn’t necessarily mean anything if the Bucks don’t shore up the 3pt line

 

[Walt]

Giannis is definitely hurt badly. They were talking about him missing the entire series. Hope he doesn't fukk his shyt up too much playing ahead of schedule like this.

 

[SchoolboyC]

Bucks lose this game they lose the series, no way Giannis wasn’t playing, even if he’s only a shell of himself
