    Holy ****. 32 to 17 FT discrepency for the Lakers on the road against a 29-7 home team. The NBA continues to cover for the Lakers.

    Just a preview of what Doc has in store for the Bucks during the playoffs. This **** isn't a coincidence lol.

    Giannis bricks 2 free throws. Davis swishes 2.

    Say what you will about the Lakers, but they showed way more heart tonight than the Bucks.

    The Bucks were 4th in DRtg last season. This season, they are 16th. Their offense improved but their net rating got worse.

    They should never have traded Holiday for Lillard.

    We just need Draymond to go back to being Draymond and whack somebody to finally put the Warriors out of contention.

    Stop crying about the refs. Bucks had a 19 point lead in the 4th. Sometimes you just have to learn to close. Giannis has never been a closer.

    The Lakers are middle of the pack in both offense and defense. Their expected W/L record is 36-35, but because they have the highest FT discrepency in the league they are now 40-32. It's bullshit.

    I agree that the Lakers get very favorable whistles, but that's not why they won this game. Milwaukee was up huge in the 4th and choked.

    Well, when you are called for twice as many fouls as the opposing team, it's easy to choke away a game you once controlled. Just look at the Houston-Texas A&M game Sunday night.

    Exactly.

    Khris Middleton being more over the hill than Dame is another problem. He just doesn't move the same.

    Lastly, while Mike Budenholzer wasn't the greatest coach ever, the complete, total and absolute blunder of hiring Adrian Griffin killed this franchise. To add insult to injury, getting rid of Griffin forced them to commit $40 million to Doc.

    At least they got one lucky championship out of it.
