How is it not a issue? Bucks need just don't have that killer aattiude you need in the playoffs. It's great to domiante in the regular season but bucks seem to become a different team in the playoffs.

They swept Miami 4-0, they are only down 1 game vs #2 seed.......its not the big issue with this team

Ok what is the issue then because it seems this team is not capable at least this series of putting a complete game together. When they play better talent they struggle badly to have a complete game.

I have mentioned it multiple times.....but lets see, other than Game 2 has Brooklyn placed a complete game? no...have Philly played a complete game vs Atlanta? no...have Utah? no Have the Clips? no. Only team that has is maybe Phoenix.

Back to Milwaukee. They have got very inconsistent play at PG vs Brooklyn, Holiday did his best Bledsoe impression in the 4th quarter. Tucker has been solid on D, but hes not been consistent on offense.
 
CBS Sports sure seems confident in Bucks tonight saying it's very unlikely Nets have another great game.

The Nets could very easily still win this series, but that doesn't necessarily mean they are going to win Game 6. Durant just played maybe the best playoff game of the century. Can he really be expected to repeat that? Can Jeff Green make seven 3-pointers again? Will the Bucks let James Harden get away with complete and utter immobility again? If the Bucks get out to another big lead, the Nets have no reason to go all out and play Durant 48 minutes again. The pressure is on Milwaukee. If this gets out of hand, the Nets can remove Durant and rest him for Game 7 at home. Urgency won Brooklyn Game 5. If it's gone, the Bucks should be OK for Game 6. The pick: Bucks -5.5

Jeff Green has scored 14 or more points in only 18 of his 76 playoff games. What happened in Game 5 is par for the Green course. He explodes for one or two games in a series before becoming a normal role player again. That would be fine if the Nets were at full strength, but they aren't. He was responsible for almost a quarter of Brooklyn's points in Game 5. The Bucks will be ready in Game 6, and he should regress. The pick: Green under 13.5 points


Brook Lopez has made only five 2-point shots in the past four games. It makes very little sense. The Nets are using their long big man to guard Giannis Antetokounmpo, and the Bucks aren't punishing them for that by posting up Lopez against mismatches. He's almost entirely been a standstill shooter in this series. He made three 3s in Game 5, but if he isn't scoring near the basket consistently, he's probably not getting to this total. The pick: Lopez under 13.5 points

I think Nets will go hard to close the series. We have seen the Bucks can fold with a lead so unless it's up like 10+ with under 5 I cant see the Nets not try to put this to bed. Why take a gamble to go to a game 7

Everyone tries to close out a series that’s not even debatable, sure they will “try”. But their analysis of Durant and Green were 100% accurate

Durant yeah odds he has another off the charts game are under 10% but Green he's a streak player never can now when he will produce.

Green is a career 34% shooter from 3, he’s not going 7-8 again anytime soon, he’s not a streak shooter as the article pointed out. 1-2 games he scores rest meh
