This might be insurmountable. In 90 seconds of game time.
The foul at the end of the first half really turned the momentum, but when you are 3 for 20 from the three point line on a lot of open looks, you have to look in the mirror first to assess blame.

He drew a charge on Tatum, but other than that he has a deer the headlights look. AIrballing 3s, both FTS were way short. He looks like he's scared to death.
Giannis, Holiday, and Lopez are 17 for 34.
The rest of the team is 3 for 15.
Could have easily been Tatum's 5th (Holiday hack on the rebound, Matthews block).
Figured Tatum would have to take someone's head off to get another foul call. He just almost did.
By the way, with Portis struggling has anyone checked whether Ibaka died?
This is about over. The Bucks just can't generate any offense.
Kane Fitzgerald (for both sides) has made this game unwatchable. Just a terrible job officiating.
Why is Grayson Allen in? He's just killing them on both ends.
Allen, Hill, Pat C , Wes are giving them nothing.
Down 16 with 14 minutes left.
Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor?
Giannis has 23-16-9 at the end of three quarters.
Holiday 16-3-7
Lopez 13-7
Portis at 8-4
60 points.
Other players have 4 on 1 for 14 shooting and 0 for 10 from three.
In all honesty, I don't know how you bring G. Allen back next year after this.

You could argue this series was really decided when Middleton slipped in Game 2 of the first round.

Well, they essentially chose him over PJ Tucker. Baaad decision.

But Matthews is better than Tucker anyways, so that was really a wash (you can't play Matthews and Tucker together anyway).
The real crime is not trying Jevon Carter in real minutes. How much worse could he have been ?
You just can’t officiate a Game 7 like this

Huh?

Kane Fitzgerald is not the reason the Bucks are going to lose this game. They will lose because they've gotten nothing from three and their backup wings have been awful.
But Kane Fitzgerald and has taken control of the game with questionable calls against both teams

Yup, but not the Lopez call you commented on.
3-15
9-27
7-29
4-26.
That's the Bucks from three in the 4 losses in this series.
23 for 97.
If they even hit 35% it's a completely different series.
Of those 97 shots, Middleton probably gets 30 of them, minimum, if he's playing.
Giannis had two "poor" games in the series.
28-9-7
25-20-9
First player with 200, 100, and 50 in a series. Ever.
Allen makes $4 million a year. Someone in the Bucks organization needs to realize they’re not getting a return on that investment.
Outscored by 51 at the three point line.
Might want to rethink the drop scheme in the offseason?

He goes up to 8.5 million next year. They extended him for 2 years/17 million
Brook Lopez, Jrue Holiday, Wesley Matthews, Grayson Allen and Pat Connaughton are a combined 1 for 24 from 3-pt range.
Let that sink in.
Man, this is a disappointing way to end the season. They just seemed to run out of gas. No Middleton was the difference here.
I bet Boston 🤷♂️🫢 Does that make me Eeyore?
