Series Thread: 2nd Round: Milwaukee Bucks vs Brooklyn Nets

[Sportsguy9695]

In my opinion if the bucks win tonight they win the series in 6. But if somehow the Nets could pull off a win I see them winning this series in 7. So this game is very big for both teams

Harden upgraded to "doubtful" for tonight's game.

If I'm the Nets...he sits until they're facing elimination.

So tonight?

 

[DJ]

You were wrong.

He is the type of role player that fits well on any team. Just gritty and tough.

Yep.

 

[DJ]

Harden plays tonight IMO.

So tonight?

It's 2-2. They're not facing elimination unless they lose tonight.

Cowherd just said that Shams is saying that "barring any pre-game setbacks, Harden will play tonight".

He's been upgraded to questionable so starting to seem likely.

I figured it was a bit fishy when he was "ruled out" yesterday but every report I saw said he was participating in work outs and prepping.

Pretty big risk going from "out" to "I'm gonna play" especially considering I'm pretty sure the Nets can easily win game 6 and 7 if either of Harden or Irving play

Yeah, hammy's can be cranky as hell. I'd sit him if I were the Nets. It's not an elimination game. It would suck for it to flare up again and then he's out for games 6 and 7 and/or the next series.

Yeah, I don't know about easily. But they definitely are far more likely to win if they have Harden playing than if they don't, Was just watching a show where they were saying you don't go from "out" to "doubtful" to "probable" in the space of 3 hours.

Obviously, they have a better idea of where his injury is than we do. But we also know that you don't really want to mess with a hammy.

Heart of a champion

Heart of a dumbass (talking more about the Nets) if he fucks it up and can't play in games 6 and 7.

I get him wanting to play, but imo, that's where the team needs to protect him from himself.

Hopefully, it wasn't that severe and he really is good to go.

There are many words one can use to describe James Harden but 'heart' and 'champion' are not among them.

And I am sure that factors in to his decision to play.

We shall see if he can actually do it.

 

[DJ]

This should be a really good game.

 

[tlance]

Very early, but excellent start for the Bucks

 

[msgkings322]

Good start for Milwaukee.

Props to Harden for trying but he's clearly being very careful on that hammy.

Joe Harris been a major struggle in this series
