    Is Coach Bud good? He lost in ECF when he had #1 seed in Atlanta. He lost in ECF when he had #1 seed in Milwaukee last year. And now he’s losing to the Magic.

    Stotts beats Rockets, Clips, and Nuggets without HCA. Meanwhile, Bud chokes on #1 seeds. The Pelicans series is a big blemish for Stotts though.

    In how many of those series did Stotts win game 1?

    No Bud is not good, he's a bad coach. Also Giannis is overrated, he wouldn't even be a for sure allstar in the west, maybe he would be a backup.

    They were both good to great yesterday, but since we now know the result of this one game, they are not good.

    I didn't pay any attention to the Indy/Heat game. I just read that Oladipo went to the hospital after 9 minutes after an eye poke.

    Anyone who was watching: was it a dirty play, or just one of those things?

    But a pattern is developing. Bucks have lost 5 straight playoff games. He got two of his teams the #1 seed and both lost in the conference finals. And then today happens. Bud is the new George Karl. Choke city. At least Karl made the Finals once.

    Hey I know we beat the Lakers today and the Magic beat the Bucks but these series haven't even started. Also according to many analysts definition no series will start this year because a series doesn't start until the home team loses and no one is at home, except maybe the Magic but I'm still not sure about that.

    Technically the Lakers were the home team so they lost, so the series started.
