Mike Prada @MikePradaNBA
Bucks-Bulls: like a echo of Bucks-Heat Game 1 from last year. We saw how that serial turned out.
Bud improves to 8-9 in Game 1s in his career, and is a Khris Middleton game winner and a couple Bulls missed gimmies from a 7-game Game 1 losing streak. – ten:30 PM

Chicago Bulls @chicagobulls
DeMar: "Offensively, I guarantee you we won't shoot like we shot tonight again, just defence force gives you an opportunity to win.

Julia Poe @byjuliapoe

Julia Poe @byjuliapoe
Zach LaVine on his terminal 3-pointer to effort to tie: "I thought it was a good shot. A lot of my shots, I thought, were proficient. It was i of the cleanest shots I had and information technology just hitting the back of the rim." – 9:38 PM

KC Johnson @KCJHoop
Zach LaVine: "They made a couple more winning plays than we did at the finish. And nosotros had the opportunity to make them. I thought we were in proficient position." – nine:38 PM

KC Johnson @KCJHoop

His explanation: pic.twitter.com/Gl4Z4Stg0s – ix:27 PM

Julia Poe @byjuliapoe
DeMar DeRozan on going 6-for-25 this night: "I don't know what the hell's going on. Probably a calendar week off. Information technology's but non me."
"No way in hell I shoot like that again." – 9:27 PM

KC Johnson @KCJHoop
DeMar DeRozan: "I don't know what the hell was going on. Probably a week off. It but wasn't me. Every shot felt skillful. I guarantee you me, Vooch and Zach aren't going to miss that many adjacent game." – 9:26 PM

Julia Poe @byjuliapoe
Billy Donovan said he has "a lot of confidence" in rookie Ayo Dosunmu, but his minutes volition naturally decrease in the playoffs to brand room for experienced players like LaVine and DeRozan. He says that wasn't the set up program tonight, simply how rotations developed in-game. – 9:26 PM

KC Johnson @KCJHoop
Billy Donovan on Ayo Dosunmu's ix minutes: "I've got a lot of confidence in Ayo." But made clear he's going to apply veterans a lot. – 9:24 PM

Rob Schaefer @rob_schaef
Baton Donovan said he didn't challenge Zach LaVine's fourth foul — a charge on Khris Middleton midway through the third quarter — because Bulls' bench thought information technology was correctly chosen. Didn't desire to lose challenge for later in the game on a telephone call that could take gone either way – ix:23 PM

Rob Schaefer @rob_schaef
Billy Donovan on Patrick Williams' foul on Giannis while jockeying for rebound position down stretch: "I thought it was over-the-dorsum (on Giannis), just from my bending." But said Bulls demand to do improve job moving on to next play – 9:22 PM

KC Johnson @KCJHoop
Billy Donovan thought Giannis went over Patrick Williams' back, which would've been Giannis' 6th foul. Instead, Williams drew a foul. – 9:20 PM

Joe Cowley @JCowleyHoops
Donovan thought Patrick Williams foul was over-the-back on Giannis, simply said his team needs to do a better task of moving on. – 9:19 PM

Joe Cowley @JCowleyHoops

LeBron 5

No other player/team has more than 2 – 9:15 PM

Kyle Ratke @Kyle_Ratke
Thoughts on non-Wolves games over weekend:
– Losing the "games nosotros shouldn't win but could've won" is the ultimate playoff burn
– Mavs with Luka sweep this Jazz team. Bummer he'south out
– Bulls missed ii,388 open looks
– Celtics win was bonkers – Smart is so of import – 9:14 PM

Chuck Swirsky @ctsbulls
Bulls fall in Game ane. Bucks 93-86. Holiday with 9 of his xv in the 4th quarter. Giannis with a game high 27points. Vooch 24-17. Zach: 18-10. Bulls 18% 3pt range. Nosotros will do information technology again . Game ii. 8:15 on @WBBMNewsradio – 9:12 PM

Steve Aschburner @AschNBA
"You miss 100% of the shots you don't take."
— Wayne Gretzky
And nearly that many of your 3FGA if y'all're Bucks/Bulls.
Combined 23% (17-of-74).
Sting of missing so many < sting of watching guys miss so many.
Lawler'due south Police force corollary: Offset to quit doing what doesn't work, wins. – nine:x PM

J. Michael Falgoust @ThisIsJMichael
That elbow Caruso took from Portis gave me flashback of Grant Hill's old Duke teammate Crawford Palmer coming down from a rebound. Nobody like that dude bc he was dingy. Had no feeling in my ear. Didn't realize it was bc information technology was detached from my caput. Spent the nighttime at ER – 9:09 PM

Rob Mahoney @RobMahoney
Something to continue an centre on:
Bucks with Giannis: +19 in 34 minutes
Bucks without Giannis: -12 in fourteen minutes – 9:09 PM

Joe Cowley @JCowleyHoops
That game was there for the taking from the 2d quarter on. This Bulls team did not have it! A game like this comes back to haunt you. – 9:08 PM

Mike McGraw @McGrawDHSports
Fourth dimension will tell if this 93-86 loss was a missed opportunity or just how this series is going to go. At that place's plenty of room for #Bulls to improve, DeRozan was 6-for-25 from field; Bulls went 7-for-37 from 3.
Vucevic 24 & 17 was a vivid spot except for a few missed bunnies. – nine:06 PM

Rob Schaefer @rob_schaef

Vucevic: 24-17-three

Giannis: 27-16-3
Lopez: xviii-5
Teams shoot combined 17-75 from three – 9:05 PM

Nate Duncan @NateDuncanNBA
I thought the Bulls missed a gamble to claiming that foul on Williams where Giannis was kind of over his dorsum. Could have been his 6th. Think it probably would have gotten upheld b/c Williams grabbed him at 1 point, but was worth a shot. – 9:05 PM

Kane Pitman @KanePitman
Add it to the list of big Beck Lopez playoff games. Some monstrous plays on both ends of the floor in the fourth quarter. Milwaukee needed every ane of them on an incredibly scrappy night. – ix:04 PM

KC Johnson @KCJHoop
Bucks 93, Bulls 86
Vucevic 24 pts, 17 rebs
LaVine 18 pts, 10 rebs
DeRozan eighteen pts, viii rebs, 6 assists; 6-25 FGs
Bulls 7-37 from 3
Vucevic missed point blank layup and LaVine missed a 3 in final infinitesimal. This was bully chance for Bulls to steal Game 1.
Giannis 27 pts, fifteen rebs – ix:03 PM

Sam Vecenie @Sam_Vecenie
Bulls are going to be kicking themselves that they didn't win this game. 21-lxx from the field from LaVine, DeRozan and Vucevic is a killer. And at that place were some REALLLLLL open up ones they probably should have canned, including some Vooch layups. – 9:03 PM

Eric Nehm @eric_nehm

Joe Cowley @JCowleyHoops
Ball game … Neither squad played well, officiating was awful. Fire the film, get on the bus, get asses back to Chicago for practice tomorrow. – 9:01 PM

Chris Fedor @ChrisFedor
Bud is hilarious. What the hell is he thinking taking Giannis out and so not calling timeout to out him back in? – ix:01 PM

Nate Duncan @NateDuncanNBA
Likewise Donovan missed the chance to become a improve 2 for 1 past taking a timeout when Bulls got the lath with 38 seconds left and advancing the ball. – nine:00 PM

Sam Vecenie @Sam_Vecenie
Do nosotros recollect that Bud sometimes is just like "let'due south try to brand this as hard as possible on ourselves?"
Playing crime/defence force with Giannis is similar, laugh out loud funny. – 8:59 PM

Nate Duncan @NateDuncanNBA
I thought that was a GREAT shot from LaVine, downwards three and as well could accept gotten the two for 1, which they and so ruined by fouling. – 8:59 PM

Kyle Neubeck @KyleNeubeck
Subbing Giannis out with less than 2 minutes left in the game because he had five fouls is wild, can't believe they got away with it – eight:58 PM

Eric Nehm @eric_nehm
Couple of big stops there from the Bucks. Lopez held up well in the pick-and-roll coverage and Portis came through to challenge at the rim. – 8:58 PM

Julia Poe @byjuliapoe
Zach LaVine launches a likewise-deep three-pointer in an effort to tie things up, but it's well off the rim. Bucks upwardly 89-86 with xv.3 seconds left and the Bulls are forced to foul. – 8:58 PM

Sam Quinn @SamQuinnCBS
Brook Lopez and Alex Caruso having a hell of a duel for the championship of "best role player the Lakers were stupid enough to lose." – eight:56 PM

Julia Poe @byjuliapoe

Eric Nehm @eric_nehm
And in that location'due south another massive Beck Lopez saucepan.
Short roll, catch and a floating finish through contact. He has been large for the bucks here in the fourth quarter. – 8:56 PM

Keith Smith @KeithSmithNBA
This game is:
Post-ups! Midrange jumpers! Michael Jordan! Glenn Robinson! Scottie Pippen! Vin Baker!
Bulls! Bucks! on TNT!

Julia Poe @byjuliapoe
DeRozan makes his first basket of the fourth quarter with 2:18 left in the game.
Bucks lead 87-84. – 8:55 PM

Nate Duncan @NateDuncanNBA
Caruso has played 28 mins and dominated the quarter defensively. Donovan took him out, then stuck with White for the offensive possession later the timeout, but they missed and Lopez got the and one. – eight:49 PM

Joe Cowley @JCowleyHoops
Every time DeMar falls down and doesn't get the phone call, Holiday screams for the Bucks to run. Moral of the story: Stop falling downward! – 8:49 PM

Sam Vecenie @Sam_Vecenie
Alex Caruso has been the best player on the court for the first 7 minutes of the fourth quarter. The two teams have combined for 13 points, and he's only bravado up everything the Bucks want on criminal offense. This is WILD. This is his kind of quarter. – viii:46 PM

Joe Cowley @JCowleyHoops
Caruso should exist able to play the residue of the fashion. He'southward under 29 minutes and medical just wants him to stay away from loftier 30s. – eight:45 PM

Eric Nehm @eric_nehm
I hateful, that is just an best ugly possession, and withal, the Bulls leave Jrue Holiday open up on the left wing for a 3.
He hits it. Bucks up, lxxx-78, with 4:51 left. – 8:44 PM

Jim Owczarski @JimOwczarski
Coming out of the timeout, Mike Budenholzer goes with his starters — relieve Giannis Antetokounmpo. Pat Connaughton is in for him. – 8:xl PM

Krishna Narsu @knarsu3
Simply a reminder: the Bucks lost every game 1 in terminal yr's playoffs outside of the Heat series and they very much tried to lose that game 1. Besides lost both game 1s in the chimera including to Vucevic'due south Magic team lol. – eight:39 PM

Rob Schaefer @rob_schaef
Wow. Giannis just picked up his fifth foul with eight:14 to play. Alex Caruso stepped in and took a accuse on a drive late in the shot clock – 8:36 PM

Jim Owczarski @JimOwczarski
Giannis Antetokounmpo is called for another offensive foul – his fifth. Alex Caruso was waiting for information technology.
8:14 to become in regulation in this one. – 8:36 PM

Sam Vecenie @Sam_Vecenie
The level to which the Bulls are better when Alex Caruso is out there is so staggering. He simply makes everything then much easier for them on both ends of the court. The defense gets the beloved, simply his ability to bulldoze, handle, pass and make decisions is and then large even on criminal offense. – 8:35 PM

Vincent Goodwill @VinceGoodwill
That Giannis foul is the equivalent of property onto the ropes while you lot've got someone in the figure four. You shouldn't practice it but information technology ain't that bad – 8:35 PM

Eric Nehm @eric_nehm
And Giannis Antetokounmpo just picked up his quaternary personal foul trying to clear out Alex Caruso for a grab on the left elbow. – 8:34 PM

Steve Aschburner @AschNBA
The Bucks are shooting 54.3% on twos and 27.3% on threes.
The Bulls are 57.v% and 24%.
Can't they make a pact to hang a "Airtight" sign exterior the arcs? – 8:31 PM

Police force Murray @LawMurrayTheNU
Merely filed offseason Clippers preview.
Crazy to run across superlative 5 Clippers in total minutes from past season, where they were Dec 2020
Jackson: contemplated retirement
Mann: 12th man
Kennard: eyebrows raised when contract extended
Zubac: backing upward Ibaka
Coffey: 2-style contract – 8:31 PM

Joe Cowley @JCowleyHoops
Neither team has played well then far … up for grabs with 12 minutes left. Volition champs act like champs or will the Bulls get the ski-masks out? – 8:28 PM

Mike McGraw @McGrawDHSports
#Bulls trail 74-71 heading into 4thQ. Need to stay disciplined on defense force vs. Giannis to have a chance. Vucevic 22 & 12, LaVine 18, DeRozan 5-19 FGs for 14 pts. Giannis 27 & 12 – 8:28 PM

Julia Poe @byjuliapoe
Bucks option up a quick ten-2 run to retake the 74-71 at the stop of the third quarter.

Giannis Antetokounmpo is conveying the load through three quarters for the #Bucks with 27 points, 12 rebounds, two blocks.
#Bucks pb the #Bulls 74-71 after one. – 8:26 PM

Julia Poe @byjuliapoe
Giannis admittedly flattens DeMar on his way to a layup and gets the free throw to kicking. Makes it easier to quell a comeback when he's available to sub back in. – 8:25 PM

Vivek Jacob @vivekmjacob
The efficiency may not exist at that place but I like that Vooch has continued to pop on those three ball looks, tin can be and so of import for a big to practice confronting the Bucks – 8:20 PM

Eric Nehm @eric_nehm
2 great passes, ane from Lopez to Portis and so 1 from Portis to Allen, result in a wide-open up corner three for Allen. Missed information technology.
Bucks are now 8-of-30 from deep. – 8:xix PM

Eric Nehm @eric_nehm
During this week, Jrue Vacation told reporters that we slumber on Zach LaVine and, well, he's giving the Bucks some problems tonight.
LaVine has 18 points on 6-of-13 shooting, but that Middleton accuse was his 4th personal foul.
Bulls cutting information technology to three, just the Bucks lead, 64-58. – 8:14 PM

Julia Poe @byjuliapoe
Javonte just can't do anything on Giannis when the Bucks throw it over the top, hops and hustle can't make up for that size reward – 8:12 PM

Jim Owczarski @JimOwczarski
Khris Middleton draws Zach LaVine'due south fourth foul by taking a charge on a fast pause — which leads to an assistance and bucket by Giannis Antetokounmpo.
Fitting partner for Middleton to laissez passer #Bucks HOFer for No. 4 on the best franchise playoff assists list. – 8:12 PM

Julia Poe @byjuliapoe
LaVine opens the third quarter iii-for-three from the field, only and then picks up his fourth foul on a charge in transition. – 8:11 PM

Jim Owczarski @JimOwczarski
With that three-pointer, Wesley Matthews has passed not only Brandon Jennings for No. 21 on the #Bucks all-time playoffs three-pointers listing …. but also Mike Dunleavy. – 8:08 PM

Eric Nehm @eric_nehm
Bulls score on the starting time possession of the second half.
Khris Middleton immediately scores past dribbling up the left side of the floor and hitting Alex Caruso with a spin move.
Timeout to Billy Donovan. Non happy with his team'due south effort out of the locker room. – 7:59 PM

Rob Schaefer @rob_schaef

KC Johnson @KCJHoop
Donovan burns an aroused timeout just 25 seconds into 2nd half after Middleton beat entire Bulls team downcourt for piece of cake hoop – 7:59 PM

Mike McGraw @McGrawDHSports
Not sure what to make of that 1stH. #Bulls did a great job of weathering the storm, then missed several opportunities to get closer. Bucks pb 51-43 at half. Bulls are three-for-17 from 3, but lead in made FTs 14-5.
DeRozan has 12, LaVine 11, Vucevic 10; Giannis 17 & 11 – 7:43 PM

Julia Poe @byjuliapoe
Bucks lead 51-43 at the half. That's a manageable deficit given how the opening minutes went and given that the Bulls shot 3-for-17 from iii-point in the first half. – seven:42 PM

Bucks 51, Bulls 43 at half
DeRozan 12 pts

#Bucks get into the half upwardly 51-43. – 7:41 PM

Rob Schaefer @rob_schaef
Zach LaVine picks up his 3rd foul with 0.1 secs left in first half. Forearmed Giannis jockeying for rebound position on a last-2nd shot – 7:41 PM

Eric Nehm @eric_nehm
Man, that's simply great hustle from your two all-time players. Antetokounmpo with the competition on LaVine. Middleton with the fight for the rebound. – vii:forty PM

KC Johnson @KCJHoop
Too early apparently to know if these will be series-long trends but Donovan's rotation has been noticeably different in many ways.
Two biggest: Dosunmu has played but iii minutes. And the LaVine/DeRozan breaks are very short. – seven:36 PM

Julia Poe @byjuliapoe
Bucks really cooled off in the second quarter — just xiii points with ii:28 left to become — and the Bulls are keeping this ane within unmarried digits later on things looked dire in the opening minutes. – seven:36 PM

Rob Schaefer @rob_schaef
Bulls are hanging in subsequently disaster start. Have trailed past as many every bit 16, but Zach LaVine has a chance to trim to 6 out of this timeout
Winning the Giannis minutes (by 5 so far) and Bucks shooting five-19 from iii helps – 7:34 PM

Eric Nehm @eric_nehm
Bucks haven't had much going offensively here in the 2d quarter.
After 34 points in the showtime quarter, the Bucks have scored just 13 points in the second quarter with 2:28 remaining until half fourth dimension. – vii:33 PM

KC Johnson @KCJHoop
Patrick Williams, who passed upwards an open up iii on last possession, has however to take a shot in 12 minutes. – 7:33 PM

Giannis Antetokounmpo just picked up his 2nd personal foul and Mike Budenholzer opted to bring Bobby Portis into the game for him.
8:18 left in the second quarter. – 7:21 PM

Julia Poe @byjuliapoe
Really rough start for Alex Caruso. Two fouls already, plus he keeps getting stuck in tough mismatches. 0-for-three on the other cease and all of his shots have been 3-pointers. – 7:xx PM

Brian Mahoney @briancmahoney
Not even sure how many syllables Antetokounmpo actually has. But it's somewhere around 11 when Ian Eagle screams information technology later he'due south done something incredible. – 7:nineteen PM

Eric Nehm @eric_nehm
Giannis Antetokounmpo simply did that thing where he throws it off the backboard to himself and dunks. – vii:xviii PM

Julia Poe @byjuliapoe
DeRozan draws a adequately lite offensive foul on Giannis, who wags his finger at the ref as he jogs back down the courtroom – 7:xiii PM

Eric Nehm @eric_nehm
I was wondering if we were going to come across the Bucks bring the sideline out of bounds Middleton-Antetokounmpo alley-oop back in the postseason.
Information technology's been in that location throughout the regular flavor, but they haven't been throwing it. – 7:11 PM

Julia Poe @byjuliapoe

Rob Schaefer @rob_schaef
Disaster formula midway through first quarter for Bulls:
Giannis has ix-7-2 in less than vii minutes
Bulls are 1-six from 3 and i-four at the rim. iii-xiv from field overall – 6:55 PM

Julia Poe @byjuliapoe
The Bulls take gotten some genuinely great looks from 3-point range, just they're not falling at all. Alex Caruso whiffs completely to drib the Bulls to i-for-5 from behind the arc. – 6:51 PM

Julia Poe @byjuliapoe
Vooch gets the first Bulls points of the night with a 3-arrow. Bulls need him to click early to continue this series competitive. – half-dozen:47 PM

Vivek Jacob @vivekmjacob
giannis pulling up like that less than 2 mins in about as disrespectful as kyrie throwing it off the backboard to lebron on the opening possession of the series against the raptors – 6:45 PM

Eric Nehm @eric_nehm
Giannis Antetokounmpo hits a pull-upwardly triple and mean mugs every bit he flexes down the floor.
Bucks upward, 9-0, after a minute and a half. Timeout to Billy Donovan. – 6:44 PM

KC Johnson @KCJHoop
Bucks take nine-0 lead earlier Donovan burns a timeout. DeRozan 0-2 from midrange. Lopez 4 points off switches. – 6:43 PM

Julia Poe @byjuliapoe
Bucks tear off a 9-0 run earlier Billy Donovan takes a timeout. Less than platonic showtime for the Bulls. – 6:43 PM

Julia Poe @byjuliapoe
Brook Lopez with the first four points of the game.
Billy Donovan spoke before the game almost how much of an edge he adds for the Bucks around the rim. – 6:43 PM

Eric Nehm @eric_nehm
Brook Lopez opens scoring today with two costless throws subsequently getting lost behind the defence force in the dunker and getting fouled on his shot effort. – 6:42 PM

Frank Madden @fmaddenNBA
History suggests tonight might be Bulls' best gamble to steal one in Milwaukee. Terminal year Bucks lost 3 of 4 games 1s — their merely win the Middleton OT game-winner vs. Miami — but were 15-4 in all other games. Fugitive some other dull series start a good test of Bucks' preparation. – 6:41 PM

Krishna Narsu @knarsu3
KD definitely gets way less slander than any other star in the league. If Steph or Harden or Giannis or Jokic or option any other star had that game, the takes that'd exist flight… – six:40 PM

Julia Poe @byjuliapoe
Tonight's canticle vocalist in Milwaukee optioned upward more in three minutes than Aaron Tveit in an entire Broadway season – 6:35 PM

Gerald Bourguet @GeraldBourguet
