What's it going to be, Bucks? Will they defend their honor as Champions, tonight? Will their shooters be more consistent? Will the officials allow flopping or other bad behavior? We'll know, soon enough! GO BUCKS!!!

Win, tonight, for Bob Lanier!!!
Already as many 3 pointers as Game 2.
I think Al Horford could tackle Giannis and not get called for a foul.
Gonna be another slugfest. Bucks need to be up for it.

On the other hand, Tatum and Brown don't get the same leeway even though they are bigger "stars." Horford has a reputation that allows him to do this.
Portis can't buy a bucket.
Portis needs to make those mid rangers
Horford missed. I guess he is human.
Dammit Giannis quit shooting threes
FFS Brown travelled
Theis plays as good as positional defense on Holiday as Horford does on Giannis but will pick up a foul every time.
Easily a foul on Thies. Holiday makes 2 FTs
At the end of 1, Bucks 28, Boston 26.
Marcus Smart acts likes been shot in a drive by on any play where he makes contact with another player.

I'm not saying it's not, but Horford has done similar things to Giannis and other Bucks in the paint and gets the benefit of the doubt.

Yes, he has. Horford shoved Giannis earlier, when Giannis had the ball. No call.
Tatum flopping on his 3 attempt.
Bobby Portis is still playing hard and clearing the defensive boards, but he is borderline unplayable right now on offense. He is struggling to get shots off against guys he should be dominating (Pritchard).
Down 5. In danger of getting away from them.
Grayson Allen is killing them in this game
Bucks not driving to the basket. Settling for 3s without any rebounder.
Giannis finally got a call against Horford.
Refs taking over now
It sure would be nice to have DDV instead of Ibaka right now
Theis hacks Holiday no call
Down 9. Into a danger zone.
Just stating the obvious. Holiday is not Middleton. He can't score in isolation and his inability to do so (and that the Bucks have no one else to do so with Portis struggling is killing them.
This might be over at halftime unless some other Bucks player besides Giannis figures out how to generate offense. Down double digits.
