Might have to actually catch a Bucks game uke:

 

[JimLeavy59]

Already got tickets for game 3.

 

[Hasselbeck]

Better question would be.. will the Bucks even win a game?

:nope:

Easy sweep.

 

[JimLeavy59]

Even though its a sweep I hope Larry Sanders has a good series.

 

[JimLeavy59]

Great game Lebron 27 points on 9/11 shooting, 10 rebounds, and 8 assist. Thats how a title contender handles a lower seed Melo and the Knicks need to take notes.

 

[Goober]

This corncob shit isn't going to be on FSN Wisconsin right?

Every win counts the same. :melo:

ESPN highlight featured nothing but Heat. In fact, it featured nothing but Lebron in every clip. Not a single mention of a Bucks player, aside from half mocking Brandon Jennings for having the audacity to predict his team would win the series. HAHAHAHA HOW DARE HE WHAT A JERK.

Not shocking, I know, but this was a close game most of the way, especially in the first half. Pretty embarrassing as usual from ESPN.

Also, later in the show they did an entire segment on Kobe Bryant, who is obviously injured and not even playing.

The Heat pretty much controlled the game the entire time. I was watching the game waiting for the Heat to blow the doors off of it because you could just tell it was coming and the Bucks couldn't really play with them. It's the NBA so every team will make a run(the Bucks getting back down 2 points heading into 2nd quarter and clawing back from 7-9 pt deficits for the entire 2nd quarter) but the story of the game really was Miami doing whatever they wanted to for the most part. They then blew the doors off of them right away in the 2nd half.

Also, quit watching ESPN.

 

[FedEx227]

Yeah, just watch NBA TV.

The score didn't really show how much Miami dictated the game. They took Ersan out of it with rotations and traps and basically welcomed Jennings and Ellis to shoot themselves in the foot.

Pretty much. The Heat stepped on the Bucks neck with Bosh and Wade on the bench and James and Birdman doing the most damage. The Bucks were/are just completely outclassed.

 

[FedEx227]

The worse part for the Bucks: The Heat played pretty poorly. They had a lot of early turnovers and didn't have a great flow, they were all transition buckets for the most part. They'll blow them out of the water in the next few games.

 

[JimLeavy59]

I hope Lebron drops like 50 in game 3.

 

[JimLeavy59]

Man watching Lebron in person is amazing.

 

[Primetime]

Lebron 13/20 30 Pts, 8 Rebs, 7 Asts, 3 Stls, 1 Blk, 5 TOs
Ellis/Jennings: 11/27 24 Pts, 5 Rebs, 9 Asts, 2 Stls, 1 Blk, 8 TOs

 

[Kuzzy Powers]

Jennings and Monta were both pretty awful this series.
