Bucks vs Raptors series down to best of 3
Yes, there's a Bucks vs Raptors series discussion thread. And maybe this will get merged in there later.
But for now, Bucks vs Raptors are tied 2-2. So now it's best of 3. Two games in Milwaukee, one in Toronto.
What must the Bucks do better?
And what must the Raptors do better?

Re: Bucks vs Raptors series down to best of 3
Bucks must actually run a halfcourt offense. If they're not hitting open 3's or hitting contested threes, they become very vulnerable. In a sense, if they're not getting to the rim or hitting three's they're a worse Rockets because their best players are not ELITE Isolation gods like Harden, CP3 or even Eric Gordon.
Raps role players have to actually show up on the road. They may likely regret botching game 1 after Lowry's heroics.

Re: Bucks vs Raptors series down to best of 3
Kawhi looked toast after that 52 min double OT win. He is learning how tough it is to carry both the offensive and defensive load during a deep playoff run for once in his career as opposed to being a defensive specialist, mainly.
The Bucks need to shoot better. Giannis and Bledsore are shooting like shit.
The Raptors, well...I'm not sure they can win this series with 2 games being in Milwaukee and Kawhi not at 100%

raps needs ALL HANDS ON DECK
problem is, bucks have more 3pt shooters. they kill you with the 3. if kawhi had the bucks roster, he'd sweep any team.
bucks winning this.

It's crazy too because the Raptors have a great roster
Siakaham, Lowry, Ibaka, Gasol, Green,
Sheesh
It's lacking a little offense but definitely not defense and as a result Kawhi is stepping up his offense at the expense of his defense

I will put my faith in one leg Kawhi who can shoot the basketball and can get to his spot whenever he wants vs a guy who has no haflcourt game and no jumper.
And also I will pick the FMVP and the group that has multiple players who reached the NBA FINALS before.
It's called playoff experience, which the Bucks ain't got many. That's why I was only stressing about the Celtics lol I wanted the Sixers so we can battle it out with the Celtics in the ECF. The bucks had other plans but they are not as great as people think they are. They just shoot the three better but none of their great shooters can put the ball on the floor. (Mirotic, Ilyasova, Lopez) Except maybe Middleton, Hill and Brogdon. 3 players that can be defended by our guards too. We got players athletic enough to close out on their shooters.
Offensively for us, the ball has got to move. The funny thing is we played our best basketball in game 4 with Kawhi on the bench. We need to keep the ball moving and let them guessing.
Toronto's defense > Buck's defense & Offense

Kawhi doesn't need to dribble the ball 100 times to score.
Kawhi doesn't need the ball 90% of the time to be successful
Kawhi can play off the ball. Kawhi is a better three point shooter than LeBron
Kawhi is a better midrange shooter than LeBron
Kawhi is a better defender than LeBron
Now that we know all that we know...
LeBron ball isn't effective without "LeBron" having the ball in his hands.
This usually happens, when your system is basically centered around giving the ball to one guy and get out of the way.
