Fuck!
I kinda like this tbh
Win today, and bring him for the game 3.
Don’t rush
Im not mad at all. We should win this by 30-40 without him anyway
​
EDIT: YOU ALL MOCKED AND SCORNED ME
Rest up big man
Khris you got this
Pain.
Fuck
Series and season on the line. It’s a bummer because you’re telling yourself we’re the 1 seed so it really shouldn’t matter but the reality is that we’re a team without our best player and arguably the best player in the league. 2 home losses going into 2 away games down 0-2 is a hole I don’t know any team has overcome. Stats gurus where you at
We win this game and all is well.
We lose this game and this could be a pivotal moment prompting massive changes to this organization.
This has not been fun.
Probably good for the mentality of the team to know he’s out and not have to frame this game around wondering if he’ll be back
Welp
Game 3 isn’t until Saturday, I bet they factored that into this.
Now he can have almost a full week off which is huge
If we can’t beat this heat team with no giannis, we weren’t going anywhere anyway
Atlanta 2021 run it back bitches
I’ll stay positive and just assume the team comes out and performs like how we know they can perform even without Giannis. Im just praying Coach MB actually utilizes the Bucks huge interior presence with Bobby and Brook for easy paint points, limit Butler’s paint scoring , and at least properly contest the 3 point line…. Just make the game easy for themselves but nonetheless Bucks in 6
Alright we need regular season jrue not playoff jrue tonight
Pain
But this is the right choice
This is the best option, rest Giannis until he is 100% and let Khris, Jrue and Brook cook
Celtics fan. I still think you guys come out and win this. Don’t forget they have no Herro out there either. I have zero faith in Strus and Duncan. Strus has 1 or 2 good games a year, and he is going to be locked up now with Herro not being out there. Even if he’s wide open, I watched him go like 0/26 from 3 last year.
if we win this, we’d be doing very well. giannis getting upgraded to questionable before the game implies that he IS hurt but barely enough to not play, and he’s definitely not a “I can barely move” situation.
Of course that means superman SHOULD be available for game 3, and we just destroy the heat from then on.
Every time the Bucks win a playoff game my dog gets whipped cream, and he loves himself some whipped cream. Let’s make it fucking happen.
There’s some things to consider here. First off, Herro is out for the entirety of this series for Miami. We all know Giannis will be back. They’ve shown that they can win a series without Giannis before. A team as experienced as these Bucks should not show desperation against this Miami team by playing him injured.
Jesus people, calm down. Miami isn’t going to shoot 60 percent from 3 again and we aren’t going to have to completely adjust our game plan in the first quarter again. Relax.
Edit: See?
Going down 2-0 at home with no real time table on giannis’ return…that might be the end of our season. Assuming a split in Miami then you’re down 3-1 and out of like 300 teams only 13 have comeback from that deficit. Denver pulled it off twice in 2020 but the bubble was just a different animal. This is a must win tonight. Hope we play like it
Where will Kevin Love try to sell his charges?
I hope all the people worried about the sky falling feel real stupid now.
