      Well, that was fun, confetti and all.

      And, lo and behold, there was a shot clock violation call at the end of the game.lol

      I predicted the Celtics in 6 and no team has won on the road, so, I am glad with our backs against the wall, Bucks are forcing game 7 at the Garden.

      Giannis carried the team, no doubt. The key was FB points advantage and the Bucks had more rebounds. It's very rare when the Bucks out rebound their opponent.

      I like Tatum over Rozier, Rozier shot 5 of 17.

      Tatum is smooth as silk.

      Loved the energy of the crowd at the BC, loved it. Stood for the last 6 minutes of the game.

      Bucks fans don't forget, every time Smart came in and out, they booed him. And, he was a non-factor.

          I’ll be ready to calculate the trash and soft percentages.

            Still fuming with everyone from Stevens down to the players after last night. What an utter embarrassing and putrid performance. I’ll say y’all from a long winded profanity laced tirade though. Just know I’m mad in real life and online.

              What do you think your chances of an game 7 upset is?

              And Smart plays better at home. He goes from non shooter to Elite shooters if he gets going on defense. One of the weirdiest and hardest players to rate in NBA 2K. Like the wildcard badge isn't enough for him lol

                I'll just get us started now.

                Amazing how we bitch and moan about the east and west and wanting to seed 1-16 and all this other crap based on first round matchups because let's be honest, that's what 1-16 seeding is always about because we generally get the two best teams in each conference playing against each other in the end and generally get entertaining Finals series outside of a few misses here and there. But here we are and the eastern conference first round has been the most fun to watch so far in these playoffs while the west has been a big bag of Meh outside of Utah vs OKC. We could potentially have 3 game 7s coming out of the east this weekend while all but one series is wrapped up in the west 5 games or less in the west. Leave the seeding alone and just keep enjoying basketball the way it is.

                    If the Raptors want to slay the demon of the "Old Raptors" then they need to close it out tonight. If they lose and close out in 7, sure they can quell the talk for a little bit longer, but there will be whispers still the rest of the way in these playoffs. If they close it out right now they shut that talk up and god help them if they drop this game and the unthinkable happens on Sunday (that's when game 7 would be right).

                        Last night, the Bucks were giving Giannis space. He was determined to take it to Horford and Baynes. I heard that after game 4, Giannis told his teammates he wanted to catch the ball in his sweet spots. I think Kash needs to see the ball more, too, because last night he went 7 of 8, and according to the one and only Shaq, is the most underrated player in the NBA. lol Also, one would think Drew Bled no show would show up for 1 game of the 7.

                        Neither team has been able to win on the road and that part doesn't impress me, so, my heart says the Bucks, but my brain disagrees and says the Celtics.

                        The first time the Bucks have taken a series to game 7 since 2001, so, they have that going for them.

                          BREAKING: Otto Porter Jr. is undergoing a small procedure on his left leg today to address a build up of blood flow in the area of his contusion, the Washington Post has learned.

                          He is OUT for Game 6, as well as the rest of the series if it continues.

                            Must’ve got worse because this morning it was a bone bruise.

                            Oh well.
