It's rare to see coming back from 3-0. Maybe Giannis could accomplish it.  Wink
I hope he does.
History and a chance for championship. Also, proving that he is one of the best player in the league.
I am still going to bet for the Bucks at Game 4. I don't know why but maybe a hunch.

I was hoping that They'll be able to win the game today, but to my surprise Heat outscored them in the last quarter,.
Very difficult now but there's still game if they win it the chance still alive.

Lakers seems to be losing their first games. (Blazers) Is this some kind of strategy or just testing their opponent first before they come up with a good play?

Not sure but seems to be something like that, still long series to come many things can happen along the way.

Bucks lost today.  Undecided
Hands Down for now, LoL. but it's quite close I think.
Just a little more for Bucks, that's really for sure.
Need 4 straight wins for them. Still holding on.

I can see the eagerness of Giannis. I agree, just a little more, and hoping that the hope that we're seeing can be extended up to game 7. If not, Heat also deserves to move forward.

Where are the fans of Ja Morant? got some pretty good news!
-
He deserved that recognition, no doubt about it. It cannot be Zion not unless he had matched Ja's effort the entire regular season. I just wonder, who's the guy who didn't give him first place vote  Grin, and what in the world is he thinkin' to vote it down on Zion Huh Don't get me wrong, I'm not mad though I just can't help but to think 'bout his opinion.
You know what is even weirder about the situation. Ja Morant got 99 first place votes out of 100 possible which is probably one of the highest but there could be more, and that is not bad at all, I can really see that. However Zion Williamson got that one vote for the first place, the person who didn't voted for Ja gave his vote to Zion and he finished third as well, dude became the third best rookie of the year based on votes.

Zion literally played in 24 games only for the whole season and even though it was just a short season Ja played in almost every game I think while Zion only had 1/3 amount of games, not like Zion blew the competition away, Ja was a lot more important to Grizz than Zion was ever to Pelicans. I can't believe how much hyped this kid is, even without properly playing he got a rookie of the year vote.

It seems the bucks wasn't lucky in their last game do you think guys they still have a chance to come back up to 3-4?
Come back what? They are winless in the series so far, if you call them unlucky, you are wrong because they need to be called unlucky in the last 3 games and that is not a good excuse.

I thought Giannis would be able to carry the team up to finals in regards with the Lakers it's surprising to see them lose since I bet on Lakers this game 1.

Then you are wrong, Giannis is a star but the whole team needs to support him, he can't carry his team because he is very limited and very predictable.



But in that case he would loose a lot of money as he is eligible for supermax contract, and as we know only Bucks can offer him one. He will have to decide what's more important, money or titles.
But was it already guaranteed that he will get a max contract?

What if the management changes their minds?

With the way they are playing, I would say that their chances are slim to none to come back after loosing 0-3 against the Heat. But who knows, I also thought that Denver won't come back after 1-3 vs Jazz, and we saw what happened.

Bucks getting kicked out in the Conference 1/2 will be a surprise, and who knows, might even make Giannini to leave them. There were rumours that Mark Cuban was interested into getting him to Dallas. That would be very interesting to see, him coming there and playing with Doncic and Porzingis, they would be complement each other nicely I think.

What happen to buck and Giannis? They were already outscore with the MIA 3-0 in favor of MIA in the series. This team was literally good after making it in the last playoff to which the team had almost make it to the finals. Bucks probably needed more shooters outside to help Giannis in scoring. They are having hard time to score especially outside the perimeter.
Giannis was aweful, he keeps shooting 3 points but can't even get a bucket. Damn, they have no answers against the Heat.
After the 3rd quarter, I was like, "HEY, THIS BUCKS TEAM WILL COME BACK", but they were outscored pretty bad in the 4th quarter.

They are good as out, unless they'll make a history.

Anyway, this season I think is in favor to lakers. Lakers has the highest chance to play in finals and become the champ with lebron. Lakers too had good players and this team is solid.

Lakers lose against the Rockets tonight, but it's just game one, so, no worries.

Game today is Bucks vs Heat game 3, can the Bucks also win in game 3?
My instincts says yes.

I like that, very positive about Bucks. People still trust them, they are still the favorites today despite 2 straight loses, I guess I have to bet them in the first half as I expect them to start strong which is their weakness in the last two games, maybe they can improve in this game.
well, I don't really believe on streaks, besides all teams on NBA have experienced such scenario and most of the time after 2-4  consecutive losses they actually turn the tables on their side. Especially in case of Bucks, like I said it's not impossible besides if it's a minute on the last game they might have won, though we still can't deny the fact that Miami has a strong line up too 😅

Game has started already, I'm enjoying it now, hopefully my internet connection would not slow down as I'm only watching through live streaming.

Miami Heat vs Bucks. It's a must win game by the Bucks here, what do you think guys, are they going to win tomorrow or would lose the game and be in the position that no team has even come back in the history of NBA?
Based on my own calculations using there past matches, they'll win against the miami tomorrow,... besides Miami is just 2points ahead on the last game so it's still possible to get a win, also Bucks hasn't given up yet as we can see to their past matches. And If we're still on the game of betting I would go for Bucks this time.
Why nobody is talking about that long pass made by Lowry to OG? That's impressive too knowing a 7-foot+ guy (Tacko Fall) was right in front of him.
too much for the highlights I guess 😂

I think the real topic now is OG Anunoby, that last show was amazing, 99% the Raptors would lose but they prove us wrong. With 0.5 seconds only, OG Anunoby made a cod blooded 3 and that changes how this series looks like, it could have been a 3-0 as Walker made an impressive assist.

That was indeed a crazy match today. Well I didn't thought Raptors had a chance with half second remaining on the clock. Timing was perfect and the pointer was perfect to keep them in the playoff run. Anunoby has stealed a star moment today and that is the only name running in Raptors fan mind today.

Still they have also keep it tight and not give it away in next.

He will now be stuck inside every Raptor's fans, with that finishing touched for sure he will remind everyone.


It's also changed  the pace of this series, 0-3 down is very difficult to catch up but with what happened today, Raptors

keep the series close and bring back the intensity and another more game for this series..

I don't want to expect too much about the Raptors in the series, that wasn't a convincing win but just a lucky win.

In the last 3 games, Celtics are always dictating the game game, Raptors only come back in the 4th quarter to make it a close game, well, good thing they got lucky on this one but I doubt if they will not improve in game 4,they would still be this lucky.

That luck saves them, and no matter what we say, that's still considered a win, and who knows, they might adjust effectively in game 4 and beat the Celtics, that would make the effort of OG Anunoby's effect not wasted as they will tie the series and will have chance to win the series.

We can still say that last shot was designed for Mitchell but decided to change it up since people will be expecting for Mitchell to take the shot. Conley was also a reliable shooter but I guess it was not their day. (Such a cool series, one of the best 7 game series I guess).
Decided to change it up? I just said he turned the ball over to the opposing team (that's not changing up). The last shot by Conley wasn't by design either. Did you really watch the game or at least the last 24 seconds of that game?

Steve Nash was a great team-player and maybe the team can change their style with that. When Nash was a player, he ultimately decides on whether who can take the shot and was named MVP because of that. Kyrie decides to hog ball whenever he thinks he can take the shot and that is not that bad if he scores.
When he's holding the ball too long and taking tough shots when he could just find an open man, it affects the team play and rhythm. That's still bad regardless if he makes it or not.



~
Did you see the highlights of Steve Nash before?
Not just highlights. I've watched whole games when he was with Suns that were broadcasted live.

It is really awesome especially his passes that are extraordinary but the thing is it is now different because he is now a coach and not a player.
What are the chances that the coach will implement his style of play to the team? Maybe we can take a look at how Mark Jackson transformed the Warriors team before Kerr took over.

I said here I am going to wait for Stephen A. reaction about the Nets hiring Steve Nash.
And he did. Of course, he will. Durant is his man.  Grin

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kRyGZr-ezWE
I just don't like how he connected it with the battle for racism.
If that is true then get some facts first. Is the owner/manager of the Nets really a racist type?
Or he is just being too dramatic about the issue?

I know there are a lot of better coaches who are on the line and Nash doesn't even have experience coaching.
But what if it will end up like how Steve Kerr did it. (the power of Steve's)  Grin

Max Kellerman though have a different view.
