The Milwaukee Bucks made easy work of a shorthanded Chicago Bulls team on Wednesday, 116-100. The Bucks closed out the series 4-1 as they now advance to the next round to face off against the mighty Boston Celtics in what should be an epic series.
Before turning their focus to Jayson Tatum and Co., however, the Bucks' social media team made sure to have some fun on Twitter first. Naturally, it was at the expense of the Chicago Bulls, who were missing All-Star shooting guard Zach LaVine after he was placed in the league's health and safety protocols:

Yup, the Bucks went there. Not only did they manhandle the Bulls in Game 5, but they also made sure to add insult to injury by cooking them on Twitter. This definitely won't sit well with Chicago fans.
For what it's worth, it was actually Giannis Antetokounmpo who was cooking in this one, dropping a game-high 33 points on 11-of-15 shooting, to go along with nine rebounds and three assists. The Bucks superstar was hot from the get-go and he made sure that the Bulls would not even get a chance at trying to steal away this game.
