Every upstart team, such as this season's Bucks, has a show-and-tell to play before we typecast them as contenders or pretenders. The telling is done during the regular season, where the Bucks have already told us more than an earful about their potential; now, it's time for them to show it in the playoffs.
CoY favorite Mike Budenholzer needs to show he can maximize his first superstar-helmed roster in a seven-game series; the league-best regular-season team needs to show that it's not just paper tigers; and MVP frontrunner Giannis needs to show that he's the BITW come playoffs time.
And why shouldn't Giannis do so at least in this series? No one has the stature to guard him against for Andre Drummond and a hobbled Blake Griffin

I gave Detroit one , cause Bucks could stink it up , under pressure or some dam
absurd shooting off night , standing around flat.
It will be perfect for Coach Bud to kick some as$ and get them to the title series.

Everyone's talking about what a mis-match GS vs. LAC is. Is this series any more competitive?

I love my Pistons so I will give then 1. Bucks in 5. The greek freak is the man, and I cannot wait to see what he does this Playoffs.
Once you get past my Pistons, I'm rooting for ya!

I say Bucks in 5 out of respect for Blake's talent but if he's legit hurt this really should be a sweep. Hopefully the absence of Brogdon doesn't matter in this one, definitely will against Boston tho.

Bucks woud have to be playing with such a level of boredom to lose a game in this series.

Re: Playoffs Round 1: Bucks vs Pistons Series Thread
Pistons are a one man team for the most part and Blake is the man. He's banged up. If he's healthy and other guys show up I can see the Pistons stealing one game...that's it. Series 4-1 Bucks.

Pistons in 6
Pistons pack paint on Greek freak easy win
Re: Playoffs Round 1: Bucks vs Pistons Series Thread
It wasn't gonna be close with Blake, but without him it's a ****ing wash. Easy sweep.
