Right, but if they lost they game, for sure Curry might have to carry this huge mistakes in his career. So they got lucky, escape with a win. And with that it's down to best of 3 now. And I agree that the next game will be very critical and it's a big chance that whoever wins it, will win this series.

Giannis is back on a must win situation for them against the Miami Heat. And then are taking a 12 point lead, it they will win this game then it's going to be tied as well 2-2. And the next game will be in their homecourt at Fiserv. If not for the injury of Giannis though, they could be up 3-1, but this just makes the series more exciting now as we all know how Jimmy Butler is clutch during playoff games.

Wow! What a display of his skills from Jimmy "Buckets" Butler.
It felt like I was watching the Eastern Conference Finals. This is the Butler that I cannot forget during the bubble when he was going head-to-head against Lebron James. Sadly, at that time he was too exhausted to continue his awesome performance and the Lakers still won it.
But today, they put the number 1 seed, Milwaukee Bucks, on the brink of losing the series at 3-1. 56 points for Butler who played 41 minutes, there's a slight look of fatigue but the energy that was given by the Miami Heat fans did help.

Now, how will the Milwaukee Bucks adjust to this situation? It will be back at their home which is a must-win, but after that, White Hot Miami will be waiting and will not be stopped from helping their players to play like this again.

What a sight to behold, Milwaukee Bucks the top seeded team are on the brink of elimination by the Miami Heat, Milwaukee Bucks for majority of the game, and If I recall correctly Miami Heat first lead came in the 4th Quarter, I really gave up on Miami Heat winning the game already because the Bucks were incredible with almost every possession and late in the 4th Quarter Jimmy Bucket happened, he literally carried the team for the whole of the game, I remember him alone scoring 22 of the entire Miami Heat 28 points in the 1st Quarter, and he became some silent during the 2nd and 3rd Quarters, but he activated his bucket mode yet again in the 4th.

While I wouldn't rule out the chances of the Bucks getting back into this series and possibly force a game 7, It's not going to an easy task especially without the Giannis being very healthy the Miami Heat just need to get a bit physical with him and it's going to be a tough night for him.

Yes, who would have thought.
I mean they lost game one but pounded Miami in game 2. This game today was really strange, wiinning every quarter just to totally collapse in the the 4th one.

After basically sitting out 3 games due to injury ( not counting those 6min in game 1 ) , the return of Giannis was supposed to be the game changer, well it wasn't.

One of the rare occasions a number 1 seed can bust out in the first round, this happened only 4 times in the history.
Obviously the Bucks still have a small chance to turn things around but considering only 13 teams ever came back from a 1:3 deficit this obviously is a big task. I have a felling they can pull this off though!

20 points in the first quarter with 8/9 shooting. 22 points overall in the first quarter alone, a career high for most points in a playoff quarter, and aside from that, it is also a franchise record for most points by a player in a playoff game in a quarter.

56 points was also the most points by a Heat player in a playoffs in Heat franchise history. Not Lebron, not Wade, but Playoff Butler is holding that record. Just imagine a player who can't find his home a many years ago, and he went to multiple teams, and now he is leading the Miami Heat team to a good playoff run again by making an upset against a top seeded team like the Bucks. Take note that many are taking the Bucks to be the champions this season, but they are on a brink of going home in the first round. Just imagine how disappointing it will be for the Bucks if they will lose in the first round.

I don't know TBH.

Base on statistics, teams who are up 3-1 are winning 95.2% of the time (record of 258-13), so let's just say that the chances of the Bucks winning is at 4.8%, but we saw the Cavaliers going to win the title against the Warriors back when they are down 1-3. We also saw the Warriors winning against the Thunder when they are down 1-3. I mean that 4.8% is still a huge thing especially it's the Bucks that we are talking.

Lucky? So you are saying that the Lakers are just lucky that they won against the Grizzlies? What are you saying?

They're just a better team than the Grizzlies, and it wasn't luck that's the reason they won. Many are rooting for the Grizzlies to win against the Lakers because of how impressive they played in the regular season, but remember that the Grizzlies doesn't have Adams, and Clarke to help JJJ defend the paint. It would be a different outcome if those 2 are there to help the team.

Davis? At the start of the game, many thought that he wasn't playing because of an hip injury, so I guess it's kind of expected that he will not be the same Davis that we used to see where he is dominating. What's good about the Lakers is that they have players who can step up if needed. Players like Reaves, Schroeder, Hachimura, Russell, and Vanderbilt. That's why they're a better team than the Grizzlies. I guess I will not see the Grizzlies, and the Warriors matching up in the 2nd round because they might lose in the first round. Well, there is still 4.8% chance for the Grizzlies to win.

For the record, Lebron is the oldest player in history to tally a 20 point-20 rebound game in a playoff, and it's the first one since Shaq way back in 2004. It looks like we saw a prime Lebron playing just a few hours ago.

This series would be tied 2-2 if not for D'Angelo Russell's three shots in a row (two 3-pointers and a 2-pointer). He had been struggling in the past few games, but he had his best game of the series in game 4. The Lakers have the ability to win on the road, so I wouldn't be surprised if they eliminate Memphis on their home court. Personally, I would like to see this series go to game 7 as it has been a very good series so far.
Is that a Lakers vs Heat rematch? LOL... It's possible but unlikely to happen.

Expect the unexpected is always the right word and we can really never know the real output if the game is not ended yet, Right now the game between Miami Heat and the Milwaukee Bucks, can end in game 5, or game 5 can be a turn of tables for the Milwaukee Bucks, while game 5 for the Golden State Warriors and the Sacramento Kings may come to a critical state because it is a tied game right now for me it is really exciting for a game like these you will never know who's going to win or lose, I thought that the Sacramento Kings could win game 4 because it was super close but Harrison Barnes just choke and couldn't make that Crucial shot,


They have already adjusted to the deficit that they have against the Cleveland Cavaliers and from many fans doubting them now to gaining momentum right now Julius Randall is just choking on crucial games so that is why while the tandem of Jalen Brunson and RJ Barrett is amazing and was very successful at the moment if this continues until game 5 the New York Knicks is advancing to the finals,


I am really amazed at the feat of Jimmy Butler it was really astonishing to watch and right now that Giannis Antetokoumpo is not in his 100% they need to make haste, in taking this opportunity while the Milwaukee Bucks are on the verge of not in their 100% form, for me there is no chance for the Milwaukee Bucks to regain their momentum this is going to be a win for the Miami Heat for sure,

What a show from Jimmy Butler last night against Bucks with a total of 56 points! I'm currently watching the 2nd half because that is where I felt asleep and I still cannot believe it that Miami took the game and they are leading the series 3-1. Giannis what a rough night with only 26 points and it was all on Lopez for scoring points and sames goes for Middleton who forgot how to score 3 pointers...

Seems that he takes the challenge seriously, and even without the words he is showing it by actions, we just see a playoff
monsters who take care of the game in last minutes of the game.

I like how he answers his critics and the challenge from the young trash talkers of Memphis, not by words but by the game he's playing now.

One more win for the Lakers and this series will be over. They will beat the top 2 seeds from the west.

It's just one game for Schroder, and I think that he will come back stronger coming into Game 5 knowing that they're up 3-1, and it will be on the road for them. As for the Grizzlies, I don't know how they will bounce back with this one, but they're one of the best home teams right now, so even though the Lakers snatched one game from them, I think that the Grizzlies will take Game 5. That is if the morale of the team is still up like the Timberwolves where they forced a Game 5.

Reporters wanted to interview Brooks after the game, but he didn't face them, and just said "I'm out". What a funny guy he is.

He is just trash talk, but his performance can't back it up. They needed him in the last 2 games knowing that the Lakers stole one on their home, but what did Brooks do in their last 2 games? Hit Lebron in the groin, and got ejected in Game 3? And in Game 4, he only scored 11 points, in 4/11 FG shooting with 1/7 from threes? He is just pure trash talk, and he's even blaming the media because of how the people look at him right now. I mean I would praise him if he's an superstar like Booker who is a trash talker as well, but he's backing it up whenever he's on the court. This player is just pure trash talk.

Anyway, I will just add some things that I saw online (Facebook).
- Ime Udoka will be the next Rockets head coach after they fired Stephen Silas. Welcome back to him I guess. I hope he will rebuild the Rockets team like what he did with the Celtics.
- Dejounte Murray will be suspended for Game 5 against the Celtics because of verbal abuse against the referees.
- Kawhi Leonard will be out for Game 5 as well because of the same injury. I hope that the Clippers will trade him next season because nothing happened with this team since him and PG came.
