Official Game Thread: Hawks at Bucks -- ECF GAME 1

[bleachkit]

Kinda surprising to see Bogi with the best +/- of the post season.

[Spud2nique]

Odds for Friday are out.

Bucks -7.5

Ohhhkkaaayyy. They like getting schooled. Keep underestimating us. We like it like that.

I love how Ja Morant has been cheerleading for Trae during the postseason. 

It shows how these young guys are rooting for each other. Meanwhile, Luka is quiet as a church mouse. But when he was going off in the playoff bubble, Trae was giving him his props. 

Luka ain't a real one deep down.

knicks and sixers made the bucks easy

NBA players LOVE our Trae and ALL of them would LOVE to play with him. Like I said, we’re gonna have the picks of the litter.

You know, it’s already a topic on social media.  Trae Young vs Devin Booker in the finals.

Luka's over in Europe which is six or seven hours ahead.

This is why they keep on building those shiny, billion-dollar casinos in Vegas, folks. And yes, I'm still up. 

I recall saying a couple of months ago that the so-called 'Big 3' in the East had better hope and pray that the Knicks, Celtics, or cHeat do their dirty work by knocking the Hawks out of the playoffs early.

While casual fans and the national media may not know any better, all three of those teams knew what was stewing in the pot down here. The very LAST thing that they wanted to see was those guys pulling up into the parking lot of their arena, as their 6-2 playoff road record will attest.

The fact that they're doing this without Hunter, Reddish, and Bogdanovic not at full strength should be a living nightmare to the rest of the league on the level of The Exorcist, The Serpent and the Rainbow, Saw, or The Conjuring. Our team is the new Joker of the NBA and, well, I'll let Alfred explain...

the metro going crazy

I’m not here as often as I’d like to be these daze, super busy being #1 at my #1 company (no brag). So only able to via my iPhone. Would LOVE those who are so inclined to find the 3 year old “conversations” between me and The Chiropractor about Schlenk, how we’d be in the ECFs, and a FA destination by right about now instead of 5-10 years from even contending for playoffs. And how he called me out as an uninformed homer and PM’d me asking if “I was just that stupid or just trolling him”

The one thing that's very encouraging about this game was the refs swallowed their whistles and Trae still dropped 48 on their heads.  Blow your whistle don't blow your whistle this kid will always make the right play.

They can change the rules “for Trae” all they’d like for something Curry, Harden, etc started. But there were no calls like that tonight and Trae still dropped an all-time record. Those rule changes might affect Curry and Harden, but they won’t affect Trae

Another thing i noticed and i know we lowkey like the guy but hes really fun to get on but solol was killing the offensive rebounds in the first qtr

Change those rules all you’d like. Trae doesn’t kick legs out. If you beat your man and he’s behind you, you can stop forward progress all you like. If they start calling running into behind, NBA becomes WWE.

He was out there in case it got chippy. Solo sux but I love him in case we need to decapitate somebody. Every team needs “that guy” vet.

F That.  I almost stood up when Solo went in for the Dunk!!

You can tell the other guys want no part of Solo

I actually like him a lot

He’s our new “Ivan”

Shoutout to Capela

for every missed bunny layup, he hit the biggest shot of his career with his left hand. And that one was probably harder than 90% of the bunnies he missed at points this season

Amazing..
