Budenholzer more than Giannis had no answer for what Nurse did to them in this series.

He shot 32% for the playoffs and 25% for the season. Let's slow down on calling him a knockdown shooter

Mirotic, Bledsoe, or Middleton actually played halfway decent in these 4 losses, Milwaukee is likely going to the Finals.

Easy to blame the superstar, but the supporting cast played like absolute arse.


Yep. The Bucks may have prematurely paid Eric. They will have some tough decisions to make with Brogdon and Middleton. They don't have cap space, so the question is do you go far into the luxury tax with this group? Can this group get to the finals?

Every star that has won it all has had a mountain to climb before reaching the promise land. If Giannis takes another step forward next season, that may be all that is needed to get them to the Finals. It is scary to think he is only 24.

Don’t forget about Brogdon, after game 2 his face should have been on a milk carton.

Truth. He will develop a shot over the next few years and he will be a true superstar.

Now is just too early.

So flawed that they made it to the ECF series. Must suck to be them...

Hes not a great player unkess he has a head of steam.
He was cery guardable after game 2.
Skillwise, hes just average. But when hes on the move, his hieght/athleticism make him hard to stop.

I don’t think they’re “flawed” as much as Toronto is a bad matchup and figured them out between games 3&4. Toronto was putting 4 guys out there that could put the ball on the floor and halfway shoot from 3. The Bucks had no answer for that. Hell, they basically benched Mirotic for the last 6-7 quarters of the series.

Really don’t understand why him leaving the game with one minute left in the biggest game of his career to that point hasn’t been brought up more. Any other superstar would have been incinerated for doing that.

Not to mention taking himself out in crunch time of game 5 because he was "tired"


Reminds me of Rams-Titans super bowl, 2nd to last plays of the game, and Kevin Carter and Demarco Farr are asking to be taken out, 2 tired. Then last play, they again are both signaling to the sideline, Dick Vermeil yells at them both, "Are you fricking serious"? And goes into a rant into the coaches mic

Giannis played decent. He was outplayed by Kawhi, but this isn't why they lost. The Bucks supporting cast absolutely sucked, meanwhile thr Raps supporting cast showed up.

The Bucks could have still won this series. But Giannis would have to develop that playoff Lebron God mode. Giannis can get there, but he isn't there yet.
