    Brogdon was money in that game 1. It never ceases to amaze me how mature, and good he is as a 2nd round rookie. I was at the game Parker went down. Everyone stopped caring about the game and was checking their phones for news. It kind of ruined the Middleton come back which was that same night.

    I am officially on the Milwaukee bandwagon. I hope Greek Freak and his team mates makes it to the EC finals. Don't think they have enough to overcome Warriors, Spurs or Rockets but they can at least attempt to win Eastern Conference.

    I am a big Brogdon fan. He has the chance to be a big time contributor to a winning team. He also had the game of his life against the Celtics, so maybe my small sample size isn't the best.

    I never really got why NBA teams don't look at PG and G a little differently than other positions when talking about potential and the importance of age.

    He was a great PG for 4 years in college, he may not be the next CP but he had a floor much much higher than a lot of players taken before him (and a ceiling not that much lower).

    From my understanding he had injury concerns to most teams. Yeah the game against your Cs was crazy. He went off in that 4th quarter. I remember watching at work.

    Well if they get past the Raptors, it's Cavs after that. Oh boy.

    Need OKC to show some fight tomorrow night.. even if we lose , need to go home knowing exactly what we have to do win and with the confidence that we can do so. Too many young players I think another blow out will kill their confidence...

    Russ won't shoot that bad again... and our big men have led the league in rebounding last 2 years... stick to the script. Game 1 was not OKC basketball.

    OKC has been awful against Houston this year. It's just not a good match up for the team. I'm honestly expecting a series sweep.

    First three games we looked like the better team... they came down to the wire though.. and honestly we should've won the third game... they called a terrible foul on Jerami Grant's should be game winning block. after the trade deadline Lou Will put them over the top and they slapped us up in the 4th game even though we fought back to lose by what 7? We can beat them.. we just have to bring our A game.. Game 1 we did not. OLADIPO AND KANTER NEED TO STEP THE FUCK UP!

    Why write it twice. I am predicting at the 7:34 mark in the first that the Celtics are going to get torched tonight.

    Let's go Bucks! Giannis is my favorite player in the league right now

    It's nice they have a NBA halftime show so I am able to watch highlights of actual competitive playoff games.

    Every time I see a rebound opportunity, I get the same feeling I did when any Jets QB threw a pass and the ball was in the air

    What's going on man? I guess you were right with your pessimism before the playoffs started.

    As I'm sure you know, when you watch a team for 82 games you know what to expect and how good they really are.

    As a C's fan, you can't be much happier in regards to the position they are in for the future.

    Unless you have Giannis.

    Yeah it's spectacular the young future stars a Smaller market team such as the Bucks have. I'm really excited for the rest of the playoffs, and especially next year. They're getting a new stadium built, and I can't wait to see how nice it is.

    I've always had a soft spot for the bucks.

    When I was a kid I had a sports VHS, and one of the segments was about about signed basketball by the Bucks and their team.

    Odd choice, as they were awful when I was about child. But sorry, if the celtics lose I go right to Lebron.

    I hate it too, but I've been a huge fan since he's been in the league.
