Carlisle out in Dallas.

That's a guy I'd like to see linked to the vacant Bucks job next week.

I like Carlisle, but no thanks. In the last decade since winning the title, he has won....ZERO playoff series.

This game also sucks. I know injuries played a role, but two of the most exciting and entertaining teams in the league have combined for a bunch of atrocious basketball

I have been alternating between this and golf, so I've only seen bits and pieces. But so far, from what I've seen, it looks like the Bucks aren't double-teaming Durant much. They are content with making him work for 2-pointers and not leaving shooters wide open from 3.

No matter the defense on him, Durant is gonna get his. Harden is a shell of himself and Kyrie isn't playing. Don't let the scrubs beat you.

The Bucks are only playing iso ball in the 4th. Should be up 20+.

Bucks went small this game. Much easier to switch every pick. Smart move.

Not exactly. In fact this series should be over and Tues was an inexcusable loss.

Should I bet the farm on the Bucks winning G7? I'd like to retire before the age of 40. Or will they flame out to a depleted team?

I have zero confidence in any of my teams in games like this, so I am expecting a comfortable Nets win. I really hope I’m wrong and the Bucks show up poised and shoot well from 3.

Fair enough. They're the far better team with the Nets' injuries, but their lack of poise is worrisome.

It's the Bucks so... you should never bet on them winning anything substantial.

Not a genius, but not as bad as some here think he is.

This is where I'm at. It just so rarely ends well for them that I can't expect anything.

Right. After the last few years of Packers and Brewers playoff defeats, I am thoroughly conditioned to a heartbreaking Bucks loss on Saturday.

I get that but truthfully I think they should win and are the much better team with the Nets' injuries.

Oh, absolutely.

Hurry up and get all the $$$ you have -- take out a second mortgage, cash in your 401ks, etc.

The Bucks certainly have proven they're a sure thing!

Game 5 was the closest I've felt to the 2014 NFCC game against Seattle.

Wow. 32 pt 2nd half swing in the Jazz/Clippers game. Freaking crazy stuff. Golbert is a liability vs small ball.

Quin Snyder has been paralyzed for almost the entire 2nd half.
