As a bucks fan, the C’s went all the way last year, they are the team to beat until shown otherwise

Celtics would’ve been shown otherwise if the bucks had khris. That man is a Boston killer

That Khris Middleton injury robbed us of a Bucks/Warriors Finals, it would’ve been great. As a Bucks fan, I think that Middleton injury exposed some of our role & bench players though, nobody was able to step up & help Giannis & Jrue. Jrue’s FG% in the playoffs was terrible, but can’t really blame him because he has to do so much on both ends. We need some real shooters, the Bucks only made 57 3pts in that series on 27% shooting, that’s pretty poor in 7 games while the Celtics made 110. Lopez, Hill, & Ibaka are showing their age. And after a great 1st round, Grayson Allen & Portis didn’t play well against the Celtics. Only Pat Connaughton played consistent during the Celtics series, but it’s just not enough. Hopefully Sandro Mamukelashvili is ready, he’s been doing so well in the G-League & he did great in the Fiba tourney. Hopefully our rookie Beauchamp turns into something good. Ingles should help too once he’s healthy. As long as we have our Big 3, we’ll be fine though.

Middleton injury? Or Celtics ref officiating was the reason
Lazzi 24
September 23, 2022 at 3:24 pm
@Mista Idgaf I’d say it’s more so because of that Middleton injury.
Joe Mama
September 23, 2022 at 6:46 pm
@Mista Idgaf it was more Khris Middleton injury and Grant and Horford having shooting performances they will never have again

Raps were three games out of first in the East last year and they got better .LOL and we know what the raps d can do to Giannis,look at his stats when he plays Toronto ,they are not so good.

Stop lying to yourself that’s your prayer then your excuse would be they was young when they lose

@satirical mixed kid Grayson Lopez and even Jrue kinda sold game 6 & 7 vs the Celtics. If Giannis got even a little bit from them the Bucks win

You’re high out of your mind. Toronto might be the 5 or 6th best team…. Huge maybe

Giannis is the best player in the league. Milwaukee is a championship contenders like the Celtics, Sixers, Heat, Cavs. The health is the most important thing.

@Molly Weir seriously !
And if anything the East has been the tougher conference…
buddy boy
September 21, 2022 at 11:31 pm
@Molly Weir Aside from GS which are pretty much a dynasty.. the Suns got outplayed in 21′
the Lakers got lucky with injuries throughout their playoffs especially vs Heat in 20′
Had any team besides GS make the finals they would lose vs Bucks, Nets, Heat, Sixers , Celtics.
buddy boy
September 21, 2022 at 11:32 pm
For the Cavs : Donovan has to take that
Superstar step because hes their best player moving forward.

The sixers the heat and the cavs aren’t championship contenders.. there eastern conference contenders at best
WunderKid

@Molly Weir I did not say that DM is their savour but as a group the Cavs are legit. Now they need to figure out, Coach JB, how they re gonna work together. But for me, i see them ahead of the hawks even though they acquired murray.

They’re the favorite. It’s not a far gone conclusion. It could be Bucks vs Celtics in conference finals. Only team that can spoil that is Brooklyn if things go right….

Health is gonna be the major factor in whichever team wins, as always but if we took health out of the equation. I’m expecting a Brooklyn Nets vs LA Clippers finals. That would be so fun to watch series, both franchises vying for their 1st win.

Why? When healthy the Clippers are built to beat the Warriors
And in the east, a healthy KD and Kyrie plus Simmons are more than capable to win the east
