That can work but not in the last two minutes.  He barely touched the ball down the stretch.

6:55		Lou Williams bad pass (P.J. Tucker steals)	91 - 95
6:51		Pat Connaughton makes two point shot (P.J. Tucker assists)	93 - 95
6:26		Bogdan Bogdanovic misses 26-foot three point jumper	93 - 95
6:22		P.J. Tucker defensive rebound	93 - 95
6:14		Khris Middleton makes 26-foot three pointer	96 - 95
5:52		Trae Young makes 25-foot three pointer	96 - 98
5:39		Khris Middleton makes 18-foot step back jumpshot	98 - 98

Plenty of time to hack Giannis or swap defenders or put him on his ass...ANYTHING!

Meh....your opinions are constantly negative and pessimistic. I don't buy into the dark cloud stuff over all of our players not named Trae. Hunter is plenty good to be the 2. And the nench would be significantly better if Hunter and Cam were healthy too. 

Cam is an upgrade over Solo, but he struggles to shoot and score. He is not a good player as of right now.

One person complains that I'm fair weather and others complain that I'm all negative. People are going to say what they want to say. Whatever.

You're probably not getting to the finals with guys like Collins, Hunter or Bogi as your number 2.

Good players but you need a little more at this time of the year.

The bench also needs some changes. Gallo pretty much has ran solo in terms of the bench.

Lou Williams didn't really pay off... 

Solo should be cut ASAP.

There is probably less than a week to go... We'll see what happens.

 

 

 

Over reacting. This team as currently constructed has over achieved with the possibility of surprising us even more this year.

The Bucks are a championship built team with Hall Of Famer Giannis . . All-Star Middleton . . and All-Star level Holiday.  We got the poor game from Holiday, but Middleton played like a HOF.  That's what most championship level teams have.

Our big 3 is Hall Of Famer Trae . . and the #2 and #3 guy are by committee.  Normally that's tough to roll with in the playoffs.  This is what doomed that "guy in Dallas".

With the lob threat all but done, Capela's impact on offense has been neutered.  Bogi's shot is dead, so he can't be the #2 . . . or even the #5 scoring option at this point.  Collins is most suited to be the #3 guy.  Gallo possibly can be the #2, but he's a #3 type scorer as well.

 

Give Trae a player like Bradley Beal, and now we're talking about a legit title team.

 

I'm waiting on the Game 4 response before I consider the series done.

Tough loss.  The officiating was not good.  When Gallo got hacked on a three attempt right in front of the ref and no call?  And that's only one example.  I have no words on why the ref was that close behind Trae.  Just infuriating.  On to the next one.

It was a lot of missed calls! A lot! That's why I am still heated.

Solo shouldn't even be in the NBA. There is no legit reason for him to be playing. He doesn't contribute.

He should be an emergency guy in case there are injuries, but not a rotation piece.

I don't think you fairweather. I just don't always agree with you like with Reddish for example but I think you know the game. You was the only one that could see the Highlight factory was a dead end from the start with me.

Agreed.  I wouldn't use the word "missed".  They deliberately swallowed the whistle on several plays.

[NBASupes]

Solo has a role on our team but when you playing him 14 mins in the ECF. You probably aren't favorites unless you got Bron

[jbdrs]

More Okongwu!!!!!

Some Cam!!!!

Less Bogi!!!!

I wasn't this upset after the blowout in Game 2. This one felt stolen. Like the Hawks were going to lose no matter what they did even though they were leading in the 4th.

Cap can get 15-17 PPG during the high scoring regular season by out working players. It just doesn't translate to the playoffs.

Wait he said this tonight? 3-16…

[NBASupes]

I know why he plays Solo, BBIQ and energy but Solo energy is neutralized in the playoffs so basically you playing him because he's smart but he has no specific thing he does well at this level of play other than be in the right places which don't matter cause they gonna score anyway

Hawks have gotten out worked by Bucks each of last 2 games.
