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?

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.

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%

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

That team went 17-5 without KAWHI.. Lebron is expected to carry teams that cant even with 20 games in a season to titles

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.

Why would anybody take what you say seriously? You were wrong on all the predictions you made this playoffs. Where the Nets at? Weren't they suppose to beat the Sixers? Oh yeah they got backdoor swept. :oldlol: :lol
Please do us a favor and SHUT THE **** UP MANNY. YOU ARE A B!TCH ASS FAKKIT
The Craptors are 2 games away from their first NBA final appearances. If they are the "craptors" what are we suppose to call the Nets who lost in the first round? :confusedshrug:
