I don't know man, there is a good reason to hate him and also mock him at the same time and that is the fact that he is not as good of a player as he acts to be. Dude is not one of the best players in his team let alone in the league but when he is playing he is acting as if he is the best player ever. Don't get me wrong being pumped and hyped is a fine thing, I remember Celtics KG times and that dude was pumped and hyped at every second he played, he was just built like that, but when he was doing it that wasn't any dirty showboating type of deal, it was all about "come at me" type of thing and that is not what patbev is doing at all.

In any case dude is already 30+ years old with not so much prospects to look for, I am sure he will be out of the league in under 5 seasons, so he is not really a cared point in the league. At least he didn't injure CP3 on the verge of Finals, that is a good relief, I want to see CP3 win a ring already!

I would love to see the Bucks going into the NBA Finals but if Giannis will not play, their chances of winning is very low. Middleton has his games where he is scoring 30+ but on the other hand, there are some games where he is just very silent so his performance has been going up and down.

We've seen a lot of injuries happened with the star players of every team this post season but the Phoenix Suns are still complete. No injuries that are affecting their team (aside from CP3's which isn't affecting him at all) and their chances of winning right now is very high. I would love to see CP3 having his first title after 16 years of playing and he deserves to win it because of how he is leading this young Suns team. The most surprising team for me .

Because we believe that the Clippers have a chance to win even without Kawhi Leonard, or we thought that Leonard would come back in the series.

PG asks himself, what if Leonard was healthy, maybe they can beat the Suns, well, I think I will say yes and even win the NBA Championship this year.

I'll call it a great year for the Clippers as they reach in the WCF for the first time.

Maybe it depends on the gravity of offence, there was no evidence that Beverly intentionally injured booker, but it was clear that he pushed Paul and did not result to an injury, so it will only be a light punishment on a light offense, but Beverly's attitude should be discipline, that's another thing.

The poll was set up when the Clippers are healthy that's why you see the votes are the majority for the Clippers. I'm not saying Phoenix Suns will not reach the NBA finals if they played against the healthy Clippers but we can't take away the chance that the result might be the other way around.

The injuries of some key players in the playoffs destroy the excitement of the game so we can't say who's the dominating team these playoffs. Anthony Davis, Kawhi Leonard, Kyrie Irving, James Harden, Giannis Antetokoumpo, etc.

There will be no Trae Young for the Hawks.

There will be no Giannis Antetokounmpo for the Bucks.

Both teams are just matched for me. Like to see how both team's rosters will adjust now that their main scorers will be on the sideline.

Can't say who will win that match. It's unpredictable but I'm rooting for the Bucks to win on Game 5.

And now it's down to 9 points lead, the Hawks has a good run in the last couple of minutes. I think Atlanta is still into this game. Even though the Bucks built a good lead, they  are still fighting even without Trae Young.

The 2nd quarter is almost done, down to 2 minutes, so at least it was not a blow out game. For sure both teams are going to come back strong in the 3rd as this is crucial. If Bucks continue on the momentum and build a solid 10 point cushion, they have a good chance of winning and the point spread are going to be covered by the Bucks.

Hawks managed to cut the lead but Bucks continue to dominate inside, Brook Lopez made his appearance being felt
No Giannis no problem let Lopez make the damage.

Good pick for coach Mike Budenholzer bringing Portis in replace for Giannis as he really contribute well and made he's appearance being notice.

One more game for the Bucks before they'll going to meet Suns in the finals, they need to continue playing aggressive like this.

He is, it's not actually that surprising. It's just that they didn't give him quality minutes once he heats up. But, every time they used him to rest Giannis he can score and make the fans go wild. Crazy Eyes! 
Hawks is hurt more when it comes to injuries. Trae is a big part of their team for the play to work while Giannis can do isolation games only. Then, there's Bogdanovic's knee injury that slows him down.
Bucks may finish this at Atlanta if they can't find a way to counter-attack.
