Oh my God! We, yes I'm dropping a "we," are going to win this game. The Bucks have absolutely no business being in this game. That 13-0 run was a thing of beauty.

Had is the better term. It's expected that we're going to fire his ass this weekend.

I have no idea who I want to replace him though. JVG would be awesome but I doubt he comes out of retirement. We're probably looking at Byron Scott. Tom Thibodeau wouldn't be bad either.

Atlanta just shat down their legs in this game.

Why not Avery Johnson?

Say what you will about Jennings, but he is clutch from the free throw line.

I'm irrational when it comes to defending BJ. He's like my child...There's been 0 excitement in Milwaukee for the past 8-9 years, and now that this 19 year old kid has come to town, things are looking up. I am going to watch him grow and mature of the next several years, as he blossom into an all star. Wishful thinking.

I know it's mainly been Bogut and Salmons, but I will defend my baby with my life!

We already turned him down (before we hired Vinny) and his coaching style is a lot like Skiles in that he's very demanding. I wouldn't mind Avery but I doubt we go that route. Plus his system is very slow and defensive minded. We need an uptempo system with Derrick and Joakim.

Oh no doubt. He's got a nice looking stroke at the line. But some of his decisions are just horrid. He went from shooting 6 of 7 to going 8 of 20 and he was invisible in the 4th Quarter.

He has immense potential though. Two big ones coming up from the line.

TitansCJftw · 04-28-2010, 09:47 PM

wowza good game big win for the bucks, clutch free throws from jennings

sweetness34 · 04-28-2010, 09:47 PM

Nicely done by Jennings. Pressure situation and he came through.

sweetness34 · 04-28-2010, 09:48 PM

Fear the Deer. Hahahaha that's awesome. Go Bucks! Even though they're a Central Division team I'm always pulling for Skiles to come through.

Boston · 04-28-2010, 09:49 PM

Wow, the Bucks won the game on an 18-4 run. Just ridiculous, I didn't think we had any chance to win this game once we were down 8 with only 4 to go.

SeanTaylorRIP · 04-28-2010, 09:51 PM

So this is basically my worst night as a sports fan. This series is a wrap. No way in hell the Hawks win on the road. Bye bye JJ. Next year back to obscurity for the Hawks, and the lottery race for Perry Jones.

That is a massive understatement. Some shots are just ugly. But this playoff experience is going to go a long, long way as far as building confidence and feeling pressure situations.

No fear in these Deer! Hell yes.

senormysterioso · 04-28-2010, 10:07 PM

I'm so friggin happy. I didn't give them a chance in hell to win this series. When we played them in the regular season we were overmatched and outplayed both times, and the same about the first two games of the season. Credit Skiles and the staff for adjusting. Finish them off guys! GO BUCKS!!

CC.SD · 04-28-2010, 10:40 PM

Burn Nuggets burnnnnn

sweetness34 · 04-28-2010, 10:43 PM

As much as I dislike Boozer, I wouldn't bat an eye if we signed him this offseason. He's a beast when he wants to be and Noah would help hide his defensive deficiencies.

Oh and D-Will is a beast.

A frontcourt composed of two dukies,one of whom broke an agreement with a blind man, and Joakim ******* Noah.

Most hated frontcourt ever?

I sure think so

sweetness34 · 04-28-2010, 11:17 PM

I could really care less how hated they are as long as they win games and get us deep in the playoffs.

Btw, what's this about a blind man?

diabsoule · 04-28-2010, 11:20 PM

****, I really wish the Bucks had Bogut. I'm loving it that their winning but they'd have even more of a chance in the next round w/ the big guy.

Honestly I'd think about putting Boozer at the top of the second tier of FA's. Obviously guys like Joe Johnson and Amare would have to be options but Amare's motor, D (mostly due to effort I guess), and health concern me some and I don't think JJ's going to play THAT well into the tail end of the contract he gets. All three are going to get overpaid though which is unfortunate. Boozer would fit with Rose really well. If he's option 4 I'd be alright with that.

Gund is blind

Hines · 04-28-2010, 11:28 PM

Noah is one of the ugliest people I have ever seen.

Boston · 04-28-2010, 11:44 PM

On another note, I have absolutely no idea how Scott Skiles didn't win Coach of the Year...

Yes he is, but he's a helluva basketball player (can't believe I'm saying that). I still remember how much I hated his guts at Florida and now he's turned into one of my favorite players.

I laughed when Chicago picked him. I thought he was a ****** player and felt that way for a couple years. Then he's turned out to be very good so I'm eating crow.
