    My Bucks are alive

    Giannis is doing something historic. Now he needs to FINISH

    Don't be afraid to embrace a new generation.

    What a stupid hot take to pretend the Bucks are better without Giannis. He’s not a perfect player but he’s great.

    I would love to see him win with the Bucks after the media did their typical bullshit and tried to get him to a big market after last year’s flameout.
    They were kinda right though? The Bucks aren’t a real championship contender. They’re down 2-1 to a team that would have been knocked out in the first round if everyone was healthy. They were down 2-0 to the Nets and still were a toe away from losing to Durant by himself.

    Banners fly forever or whatever but this is either the last championship he ever wins or the closest he’ll ever get with the Bucks. No one is even going to pick them to make the Finals next year, much less win it.
    They did beat the Nets and the Bucks are allowed to improve their team around Giannis.

    Nobody thought Dirk would win a title either. Giannis will make another finals run in the next five years.

    Can someone explain what these coward coaches are doing with challenges? Each in the last 5 minutes had a chance to challenge a call that would have gone their way and just did nothing. Saving em for OT.

    I don’t hate him like I used to, but it does seem to be treading that way. We’ll see. Series still hasn’t started as nobody has won a road game.

    Even if he wins he loses. Might as well not even play the game

    They beat the Nets by the way.

    Next season is lebron v giannis from day 1if the Bucks win

    LIPO on that one. Lakers need to add a real third wheel, and AD's health is fragile.
    The media is lazier than I am. That will be the narrative. Whether it plays out is another matter

    I think LeBron has one more year at best, if time hasn't already ran out. Call it a Last Dance. Maybe make a series out of it.

    If AD stops being a pussy and they get the right pieces we could have a last run at it

    It's wide open otherwise especially if the Bucks don't close this out

    If Giannis pulls this off it could be a start to a special run
