This series isn't over just yet....but...

What's wrong with the Bucks??

Seems like they're suddenly unable to sustain any momentum or make the necessary adjustments it takes to win a series.

Are they choking?
Just simply getting outplayed?

Or, is it because Toronto is just a bad matchup for them?
ie: Raptors have the battle tested players with more experience.

I think the league wants Toronto. Nothing wrong with Milwaukee

Not sure I agree with the former. Definitely do not agree with the latter.

But I'm willing to wait to see how they'll respond seeing as the next game is a do or die situation for them on the road.

He's gonna be MIA next season when Kawhi leaves and Ujiri remakes the team
Still using the when he leaves line eh?
Why in the fuck would he leave now?
Winning team. Winning culture. Best fans in the NBA. And we can give him 50 million more. This is his best opportunity to win titles .

Every one of those could be applied to the Spurs yet look how that turned out.

He forced his way out of San Antonio. Just don't count your chickens.

Petty isn't the right word. That's some A level trolling though from Ms. Edens. Speaking of A level, her instagram page :thumb:

She's a babe, but this won't be the last run for her bucks. They will be back if they don't rebound from this loss

I really thought the Bucks were going to sweep the Raptors when the series first started. After game two, Toronto looked like they were shell shocked; ready to mail it in. Talk about turning the tide.

Why does Toronto have North on their Jerseys? I don't think they are as far North and Minneapolis or Boston.

We're getting a Warriors/Raptors finals as I told you guys since the end of the regular season

I think we were in agreement that once Kawhi was traded to Toronto that this would put them in the lead for making the Finals as well. Having said that, I was one of those guys that was guilty as well for thinking that Milwaukee was going to dominate Toronto.

If Toronto makes the Finals, and makes it competitive with GS, I have a really hard time seeing Kawhi go elsewhere.
