One thing that's working in Milwuakee's advantage is there's no homecourt or travel. So I think the odds of them coming back are slightly better than they'd be otherwise.

I agree.

Win game 4 and they can potentially change momentum.

Where before they might have had a 1% chance, now I give them about 3%.

@WiggyRuss can you come up with one of your asinine predictions for the Heat's next series (conference finals), bud?


Assuming we don't lose 4 in a row, there is no doubt in my mind that the winner of the Boston/Toronto series will be a much tougher opponent than what we've seen from Bubble Bucks.

So finally they aren't the team to beat IYO? :yahoo:

I mean, this is really about matchups.

The Bucks struggled with the Heat all year. Miami’s strengths play directly to Milwuakee’s weaknesses.

This is a nightmare matchup for Milwaukee. I think the Celtics are better than the Heat, and at the same time also less likely to beat the Bucks.

When they lose that 4th game, which they probably will, they will no longer be the team to beat.


So the team which you just gave a 97% chance to lose is still the team to beat?
That makes absolutely no sense.

All the Bucks are as of this moment is a 1 seed who is down 3-0 to a team who has looked better than them throughout, and although I'm sure the Heat still respects them, they certainly don't fear them.

The Bucks are chokers.

I agree with this post, but it directly counters you saying a Bucks team down 3-0 is still the team to beat.
