Huh?
Lowry - 13/5/6 on 40% shooting
Simmons - 12/7/5 on 60% shooting
Simmons was definitely more disappointing, but that's mostly because we just expect these performances from Lowry in the playoffs. :lol
Kawhi had very little help against the 76ers.
[QUOTE=Rudeboy3]3 assist no turnovers bitch boi :roll: :roll:
no it isn't indicative of great defence[/QUOTE]
You are one dense retard, aren't you?
Kawhi guarded Giannis on 17.8% of his (Giannis) possessions vs the Raptors. On those 17.8% of possessions, Giannis scored only 5.6% of this total points vs the Raptors. So yeah, there's that.
Giannis is a great player and retards like you are just going to make people hate him through your completely asinine and moronic posts.

TBF, those 12 points a game were the most empty 12 points a game in the history of the NBA.
Do you want to guess how these two shot charts belong to:

Simmons in the PO's this season and Shaq during the '01 season. :oldlol:
bucks in 5

Simmons should be traded, problem is Embiid's health and durability.
Embiid needs a PG who can shoot and space the offense.
IMHO, Philly should keep Butler, Harris, take the gamble with Embiid and trade Simmons for a true PG.
On Raptors-Bucks series, its not going less than 6 games. Kawhi could limkt Giannis but he is too important in the offense, so they will take turns on defending Giannis.
That shot chart is absolutely disgusting. :roll: How is an NBA guard incapable of even TAKING a shot outside the painted area? Mind boggling.
Bucks first playoff meeting w/ the Raptors was 2017 First Round where Raptors won 4-2.
Both teams have improved since two years ago. Giannis vs. Kawhi is epic, but I still give the edge to Giannis.
bucks are the favorites playing good ball right now. hopefully this'll be a better series than the impending beatdown in the warriors blazers series.
Bucks in 6 or 7
Lowry is the weak link of the Raps
Bucks in 6.
Kawhi ain't going down without a fight, but I don't trust his team mates to step up enough to upset the Deer. Also, Budenholzer will coach circles around Nurse.
Raps in 6.
Kawhi > Giannis ... it's not close right now
People picking the Bucks are trusting Giannis > Kawhi.. man.. some of y'all are just pathetic
since they're so similarly matched it will absolutely come down to which superstar plays the best
I cannot understand anyone picking Giannis over Kawhi right now. :facepalm

Yeah, Kawhi is the best, but Raptors supporting cast was very underwhelming so far. Kawhi carried Raptors big time.

Yeah. It's gonna come down to whether or not gasol/siakam/ibaka can make wide open shots.
I feel like a lot of folks are overrating the bucks because of the beatdown they put on a boston team that completely laid down. Al horford was their best player for christs sake and kyrie, hayward, and tatum were all terrible. No way kawhi & siakam turn in performances like that.

Kawhi no, but Siakam and the rest? yeah
like i said before, I want Kawhi to make it to the finals but this Toronto team really knows how to disappear during the playoffs. Bucks have a better coach and surrounding cast that is peaking right now, that can make a big difference.
