Thank you. Hoping for a better outcome today.

Miami really in  Giannis’ head right now. 

💦🏔!!!!

Bucks are a goddamn mess 

Miami gets away with a lot of grabbing. 

The Bucks are getting outclassed in every phase of the game.

Sloppy uninspired play.  Too many turnovers already 

Offensively just completely lost. Miami’s ball pressure is really really in their heads. That’s why you gotta run. You gotta get them uncomfortable. But stop trying these ridiculous high degree of difficulty passes already! 

5 out lends itself to one on one... but when the opponent is up to the task, you gotta try something else. Bud needs to just acknowledge- their backcourt is better. Play chess here and dictate the matchups! 

Run! Drive! Kick! 

It's almost like the refs look for reasons to call fouls on Giannis. Most superstars they give the benefit of the doubt. 

The turnovers have been embarrassing though. 

Heat in 5 games. 

The Bucks are -11 in Connaughton's first 5 minutes. 

Bad offense leading to worse defense... 

If not for Brook Lopez, this game might already be really gone. 

Down 9 after 1 with both Giannis and Middleton having 2 fouls. 

Since the first quarter of Game 1, the Heat have outscored the Bucks 116-93. 

Miami’s backcourt just throttling the Bucks backcourt. No answers, everything coming too easy. 

And now Middleton with his 3rd foul in 7 minutes of playing time.

When you play 10 guys you end up having guys like Connaughton and Marvin Williams more minutes that a typical playoff team does. It leads to some mismatches. 

Get DDV out of there. 

Stick a fork in the Bucks? 

Somebody argue persuasively otherwise. Talk me off the ledge. 

Too easy...

Bud is not making any changes to the way they’re defending anything. This is getting really frustrating. Miami just being allowed to do their thing... no adjustments. 

This is pathetic. It's almost like the Bucks know they are overmatched.

Bud just played a lineup of

Bledsoe-Divincenzo-Korver-Marvin-Lopez 

Seriously, WTF? 

The talk in Colorado last week was that Malone was coaching for his job.....he coached em up.  Is Bud?

Jimmy Butler and Adebayo have not had to do much. 

The Bucks are being dissected by Kelly Olynk, a 34 year old European player, and a kid that played for Whitnall High School two years ago. 

At least Giannis hasn't air-balled a FT yet. 

Spoelstra is so much of a better playoff coach than Bud it's embarrassing. The Heat get their players in spots where they are comfortable shooting. Bud hands to ball to Giannis and waits for him to drive and kick. 

Miami finally getting called for the contact... 

This is pathetic. The Bucks have no answers. None

They look like the Keystone Kops out there.

Giannis now with 3 fouls. I'd challenge that.

This series is probably the end of Bud's Bucks if it doesn't turn around soon. There is no way they can bring this team back if they can't compete against a scrappy Miami team. The Lakers, Clippers, Celtics, Raptors, etc. do not fear the Heat. 

Come on man... need to back away from the ledge. It’s a 9 point game... not 29. 

Why bring back Giannis now? You've almost survived the half and you bring him back to risk his 4th?

Thanks. I needed that. It seems more like 29. 

Wes Matthews thought process must be - I get an offensive rebound. Let me shoot a fallaway off-balance 12 footer falling out of bounds with 14 seconds on the shot clock.
