Bledsoe is a good guard. Besides that, cleveland made the finals without kyrie. Do I think the bucks are going to win a title this year, no. Would i be shocked to see them make a deep run, no. That's all I was saying. At the moment, statistically they are favored to win the championship over anyone by quite a bit. 35 percent, second is gs at barely 20 percent. That's just statistical, but it shows that they have a well rounded team. I like them and Toronto out of the east, so seeing them at least make th finals wouldn't be crazy.

The Bucks absolutely demolished the Pistons yesterday. Going to be a 4 game series, 5 max if the Bucks come up flat in one of the Detroit games. The defense is what I think a lot of people are missing, Detroit had very few good looks. Bucks will make it really tough on Toronto and GS if they make it that far...which I expect them to.

Yeah I have been saying for a while that bucks are a good team and I have a 3 way bet on the bucks against two of my friends (they chose celtics and raptors) as far as who will make it out of the east. They play amazing defense and also have some drippy shooters mixed in with giannis.
The nets and rockets also were so much fun to watch in game 1, I can't remember a first round of NBA basketball being so entertaining to watch.

The bucks for years have basically been built to defend Warrior-style basketball. Their defense has so much speed and length, they'll make it tough for Warriors to get clean looks beyond the arc. The Bucks have the highest rated defense in the league, and their best defenders(Bledsoe, Giannis, Middleton) are the guys that will primarily guard Curry/Durant. Over the last 2 years, the Bucks are 2-2 against the Warriors...with the Warriors scoring between 105 and 111 points. That's far from being unstoppable.

As a lifelong bucks fan, i agree GSW in 6.
I would love the bucks to win!
Heart says bucks brain says warriors, ill gladly be wrong though.
People make sich a hige deal about experience...i dont think that matters till the finals and series clinching games.

It was amazing how over the last 2 months of the season, all the talking heads were saying the Celtics and Raptors were the teams to beat in the East. The Bucks have winning records this season against both teams. Also, the Bucks have Bledsoe, Middleton, and Lopez that can be a playmaker and create offense on their own. So for the guy that said the Bucks don't have that 2nd guy...they actually have 3 of them.
I will say I'm admittedly a bit concerned with how the Bucks are going to guard Kyrie. Bledsoe is a bit smaller than I'd like for guarding him, so if Kyrie is hitting his 3s on a given night that will be a tough matchup. I think the Bucks have the advantage at every other position on the court though.

Your nba takes are awful.
Every one of your takes end up bei g dead wrong.
Ya, the bucks had no prob guarding kyrie.
After all bucks had the number 1 defense all year long.
Just like you think toronto would beat the bucks.
Um no, no they wouldnt.

I dont listen to what people say about the bucks. Because those people barley watched the bucks this year.
I have watched every game this year and 90% of games every season over the past decade at least.
So when some one tries and talks about how my bucks will do this or cant do that i laugh and think you are an idiot.

I agree. I think a team has a realistic chance to beat the Golden State Warriors in the final, i think this is the Milwaukee Bucks. For me, the most convincing team is now.
Golden State is not sure to go to the semifinals, Kevin Durant doesn't play on Friday.

Bucks are good enough to beat the warriors with or without durant.
But especially without

The Bucks are a good team and Giannis can't be stopped. Can they win the title? Maybe I mean it wouldn't shock me if the Milwaukee Bucks were your 2018-19 NBA champions but I still give the slight edge to Golden State even if Durant doesn't come back. They just go to another level when the games get bigger and I think that Milwaukee will not be able to overcome that although I do think that Milwaukee vs Golden State is now your likely Finals matchup.
