Those two defenders are good. So if they ever face GSW in the finals, I'm sure Giannis will have a tough time as compare to the Toronto series. Green and Iguodala are very athletic and can match very well against Giannis either if he is facing or doing isolation in the post.

The Greek Freak is really unstoppable against Toronto. But let us see if Kawhi Leonard can still pull some upsets or at least the team take some collaborative effort to put a brake on Giannis. Too many easy shots, dunks and three's for him.

Giannis Antetokounmpo was unbelievable in his game against the Toronto Raptors. And I don't agree when you say that the Toronto defense was weak. You may not agree with me, but in my opinion the Toronto point guards saved a lot of points for their team. It was the combination of Giannis Antetokounmpo and Ersan Ilyasova which did the trick.

Anyway.. Sunday's game should be interesting.... can they make it 3-0?

What do you think guys? Do you think that it is sealed now? Bucks would be the team to advance or is there could be another form of redemption for the trailing Raptors? The situation for both conferences is the same. Warriors dominating trailblazers, and at the east Bucks dominating raptors.
The series is not yet over. Home teams have done their work so it's gonna be the other team come game3 and game4. If the Warriors/Bucks can steal a game on the opponents home then we could say that they are in a deep hole which they need to climb. There were no teams in NBA history to win the series after they are down 0-3 while the chance is so slim if they fall 1-3. They need to tie the series to make these an interesting one.
Right, but the next game will be critical, if they loss the next game, it's gonna be difficult as no team has comeback from being down 0-3 and win the series. So it's very important for either the Toronto Raptors and Portland Trailblazers to get back in the contention by winning game 4 in their homecourt.

Milwaukee are currently roling here on game two, they've started the game way better than they did in game one, and have led by as much as 18 points during the first quarter, but the quarter ended 35-21 in favor of the Bucks!

64-39 half time score, in favor of the bucks, it should be an easy win for the Bucks.
They will win this as they don't give up a lead unlike the Raptors, Bucks bench are scoring really well in this game.

Right, the final score 103-125.

They throw everything in the first quarter and it was enough to hold off the Raptors. Toronto though was able to cut the lead in the third, but wasn't enough as the Bucks tighten their defense.

Ersan Ilyasova came off the bench to add 17 points, Giannis added 30 points to go with 17 rebounds.

The Greek Freak made another amazing performance tonight. I hope he will endure this beast mode and go all the way to the finals and win the ring because he truly deserves it this season.
Ilyasova wasn't the player that was helping a lot during the season but he has to help the Bucks now that they are in the end. He has the skill to do it and I hope he will continue performing in the next games.

Giannis was really unstoppable, he also developed his three point shot, making him more dangerous. And I don't think someone from Toronto can stop him as this point, whether doing isolation plays or running a fast break. But I think Toronto will steal the next game and make this series more interesting. Leonard will go full mode and so is Lowry.
I lose hope for Toronto after their second game. No one is stepping up, Lowry's offense isn't enough to help Kawhi. If they can't steal Game3, it's all over, they don't stand a chance to win against Bucks in this series. What more against Warriors. Well, as of now I'd like to see Green or Iguodala guarding Giannis. Let's see if they can hold this guy.

They can't stop the Greek Freak in Game 2 so they got the win in a huge margin. Their bench really played well especially Ilyasova who helped his team to get a huge margin at the end of the halftime. Now Games 3 & 4 will be on the North. Do you expect that they will make the series tied or the Bucks will steal one game on the road??
Every game there's different players that are stepping up for the Bucks, and that makes them very unpredictable.
Game 3 is a  must win for the Raptors, let's see if they can win this one, if they loss, I'm afraid it will be a sweep by the Bucks and that is very embarrassing because they also got swept by the Cavaliers last year.

Long series as the game will shift to the home court of Raptors. So I'm expecting them to get a win next game. And winning game 3 will change the complexion of the game.

So I wouldn't discounted both Raptors or Portland, if they win in the next game, they will have the momentum. So let's see and hope that both of them to win game 3.

Seth Curry also said along the line that Warrior are not better without Durant, but they are difficult to guard because of the constant movement's, pick around. And that is so true in the last 2 games. I don't think that Durant will come and play though. Steve Kerr already admitted that it is more serious that they initially thought it would be, referring to Durant's injury.
This lineup is a preview of the Warriors face next season and they might not even need Cousins as he might just slow down the tempo of their offense.

James Harden has found a way to defeat the Warriors but he won't reveal it, might be recruiting Durant to the Rockets  Grin.

I don't think they will recruit Durant next year. I'm sure it's either D'Antoni or Paul who's head are going to roll.  Grin. Rumors that Durant and Kyrie might be teaming up in New York, but that's just a rumour. It couldn't be a blessing for the Warriors not to see Durant played leading up to the NBA Finals.  Grin

I didn't watch the first quarter but I saw that score and the Raptors never lead the entire game.

I expected that this game will be a closer one like the Warriors Blazers but its the opposite. Early foul trouble for Siakam and Lowry. Green isn't contributing to them. Only Leonard is the one with a good performance there compare to the Bucks who contributed all of them. Bench players really stepped up in this game and Giannis as always. Good game for the Raptors and I believe that they will get their revenge on their home Smiley.

They crowd of the Toronto Raptors is big, they might come back in the series if they will win game 3, but everyone from the Raptors has to stepped up, especially the bench. Once again, Leonard gives his best tonight scoring 31 points, but the other 4 starters have not contributed and Lowly's performance have dropped this game scoring only 15 points from a poor shooting (4-13).

Do you really think they will need Durant from now on? I mean they are 2-0 ahead right now, there is technically 5 games left at most, even if it goes to 4-3 which I doubt it will. So that means warriors only need to win 2 more games in the next possible 5 games, I am pretty sure they can manage to do that without Durant. However, the question is if you do not Durant now and rest him to get better, how well will he be in the finals after so much rest ?

Well, I think he is Durant and nothing could go wrong, he is the best scorer in the league right now and he can do whatever he wants even at his worst he is better than iggy and if he feels tired you can bench him whenever you want. I am voting for keeping Durant resting for the remainder of this series and we will see about how it goes when finals come.

The GSW could use this opportunity to rest Durant for the whole series. I mean the current line up they have right now is formidable, this is the line up that brought championship in 2016.
Durant could be a surprise weapon in the finals, as he will be fresh and got a good rest.
On the other hand,  Bucks and GSW will be a good match up in the finals.
