    The Raptors our better and Kawhi has high points total in the playoffs. Then you add Mark Gasol and Dany Green . They our stronger as far as experiences goes . There our three all star on the Raptors . The Bucks our a team that has to prove there better team in post season .

    Mac Gasol all star in the past ,Kawhi all star,Danny Green all star and Kyle lowery . Kyle Lowry is back and playing better then he has in the past . Pascal Siakam should have been all star this year . You go to post season experience you got Kawhi ,Mar Gasol and Danny Green Danny green and Kawhi both won in the finals and Mac Gasol has got to western conferences finals with Memphis. Kyle Lowry also been to eastern finals with Toronto.

    Bucks are a season team not a playoff team… not enough experience in the Playoffs they Might make it to the ECF?

    “I’m not sold on that yet” SAS knows that Boston is still a threat. The top 5 teams (excluding Indiana) in the east are real threats to GSW, I can see all of them taking them to 7 games, now the Raptors and Celtics might have what it takes to beat them, but as of rn, the Celtics have severe internal issues that need solving, & the Raptors would really have to insert themselves into a mind state that Bron and Kyrie did to beat GSW without KD & Boogie. But it might end off as a GSW 3-peat when it’s all said and done because they play on a godlike level in the playoffs. Especially KD.

    Kawhi can produce you 35+ points, Siakam 25+, VanVleet 15+, Lowry 15+, Ibaka 15+ , Green 15+, ananoby 6+ and Gasol 10+ ******bucks can’t match up!*******

    bs max kawhi is still top 4 he had no hiccups the only reason why hes not top 5 in people eyes is because of how top 10 lists are not always about how they play but the hype sourrounding them

    Bucks are unproven in the playoffs people forget Giannias hasn’t won a playoff series yet Kawhi has won the finals and finals mvp he knows how to get their the difference between the bucks and the raptors with their leaders the raptors is champion in Kawhi and the bucks is hasn’t won a series in the playoffs

    Did max just say gasol and Lopez are kinda the same? Wtf! Dpoy & all Stars vs ?

    SAS needs to stop talking out his ass, Giannis leads the league in the most unassisted dunks from drives…and its not even close, he’s going to demolish the record, so I think he is a very good ball handler he brings the ball up on offense 65% of the time. No one on the planet can stop him in the Fast Break, SAS needs to actually watch Bucks games and stop looking at Box Scores
