Series Thread: ECF: 1) Milwaukee Bucks vs 2) Toronto Raptors

[tlance]

I'm guilty of being an In the Moment Guy. Before playoffs predicted a 4-6 GS sweep over the Bucks. Was talked into believing no chance they'd sweep (even though I allegedly don't listen to others). I'm back to a GS sweep over Bucks.....IF they get there.

I still can't envision a sweep.

And I can envision a Bucks win in a KD-less matchup.

But GS has got to be the favorites either way now.

It's definitely not a lock, but I'm back to thinking sweep. No home court definitely makes this a tough task, though.

Mentally, I think not having home court might make a sweep more likely.

Because if you get games 1 and 2 on the road, chances are you get 3 and 4 at home.

Finishing the sweep on the road is really hard to do unless the two teams are just not close in talent.

Got them losing 4

Ouch, that hurts

Oddswise I saw in a bucks warriors series is warriors -140 and bucks +120 which is close. I think that's with KD playing. Not sure

Not as sad as people missing jokes on a sports talk board

Even worse coming from a self proclaimed troll

Dude, everyone here is a troll. Including, and especially, you and me.

Bullshit, playing hurt isn't real. Everyone tells me so when I bring up Curry in the 2016 Finals

Lebron had a broken hand last year or else he would have averaged 45 10 and 10

Exactly and a healthy Steph in 2016 means no Cleveland title (and possibly no KD to Golden State)

i remember a game in the 76ers series where AI and Desean Jackson and someone else were acting the same was as Drake was last night in a blowout game. I didnt see that become an issue.

Lol @people crying about Drake.

So Drake trolls Giannis.

Anyone remember the Reggie Miller vs. Spike Lee trash talking? That's part of what made the Pacers/Knicks battles so much fun.

I seem to recall Milwaukee’s in house people mockingly playing Kawhi’s laugh as the Raptors were getting shitkicked in game 2. Pretty personal. Raps didn’t say anything.

Baby Giannis is two games from blubbering like Joel did after getting put back in his place and his management have to put out a statement whining about a fan hurting his fee fees.

 

[Bloody Brian Burke]

The funniest thing about this is they’re complaining about Drake. It’s not like it’s fucking Suge Knight threatening to send a crew of Piru’s after them. Fucking Drake lol.

Grow a set.

You take this game too seriously.

I remember that game where Reggie scored something like 10 points in the last minute. A lot of Knicks fans were pissed at Spike Lee for that. LOL.

 

[Robotech]

After the rubbing shoulders comment, I expected a BJ or reach around comment. I'm so disappointed that I'm shaking right now.

Sorry, I screwed that up. I think Drake will stick to massages with Nick Nurse.

Yeah, NBA fans haven't had this much fun with a celebrity on the sideline since Spike. I don't think the league minds this at all.

Nick Nurse said that he didn't even feel the shoulder rub because he was so locked into the game. I guess Drake will have to step it up next time and do a little bit more. LOL.
