Not gonna lie, I wasnt expecting us to lose that first game and I am the first to admit that I thought it was going to be an easy series minus middleton. One of those things that perhaps makes them less predictable.

I didn't say this was going to be an easy series.
What I said was I don't think the Bucks will beat the Celts in this series because they don't have Middleton.
That's why it's Pierre the Deer and not fear the deer.

Miles Bridges in a celtics uniform 😬😬. Is it possible? He's perfect to replace an aging Al Horford. Unfortunately he's a restricted FA. Not possible unless the Celts are willing to trade Rob Williams for him.

Miles Bridges in a celtics uniform 😬😬. Is it possible? Not likely at all. Celtics are over the cap AND the tax line right now. Aquiring ANY free agents over the MLE or vet min would require a sign and trade. sign and trades trigger the HARD CAP APRON. That is usually only about $7M over the TAX LINE. no room for any of that at all. Tinkering around the edges is all we are likely to see this off-season, unless they move one of the rotation players here now out in a trade ( for a player under contract coming back). we can discuss the TPE's and whether or not ownership will be willing to use them after the season ends.

I really, really, really do not understand you sometimes. What happened to Pierre the Deer? Wasn't it me who said MIL was still a very good team, even without Middleton? I could have sworn you said this would be an easy series. Are you wavering? I really don't want to go back and forth, but I'm just trying to get some clarity on your position You're missing the point. Cabutan said for the Celts to win, they have to be physical and outbully the Bucks. What I said was the Celts can't do that and for the Celts to win, they just have to make open 3s. Most of us here agree that the Celts just have to make those open 3s that the Bucks are intentionally giving the Celts. My debate with Cabutan is about style of play, not about who wins the series. And yes, nobody is afraid of a deer, named Pierre, roaming the wilderness because Pierre is just an ordinary deer. You only fear the deer if Kate Middleton is healthy. Ok then. I'm still a little nervous

The Bucks are doing the exact same thing they have done all year.
The make little or no adjustments for different teams.
The theory is simple Make teams shoot threes Hopely long desperate one as the clock is nearing running out.
Cole nailed it Who's hot or not hot

What the Bucks are doing is really strange.
NBA teams don't give up corners 3s.
But apparently the Bucks think that the 3-ball is a lower percentage shot compared to baskets inside the paint.
The Celts really control their own destiny because it's just make open shots and win or miss open shots and lose.
