Davison, JD Out G League - Two-Way
Hauser, Sam Questionable Injury/Illness - Left Ankle; Sprain
Holiday, Jrue Questionable Injury/Illness - Right AC Joint; Sprain
Peterson, Drew Out G League - Two-Way

Scott Foster officiating and Doris doing the game. Ugh. Fortunately I can watch the local broadcast, even if it's Novak.

I have no problem with Giannis not making the trip for this one. Even if Giannis played 40+ minutes tonight, it's unlikely we would beat the Celtics in Boston.

Not expecting a win tonight, just don't give up 120+ and get embarrassed by 20+ like we did against the Kings and Warriors.

I love Jrue Holiday.

... but can we win with him out? The game plan is force him to beat us on offense. With Jrue out, what's the game plan?

Just curious was he at the home game, and is that weird if he wasn’t?

Gonna need the full experience here w/ 34 out.

Dame Time, Khash Money, Big Bob on they ass, Splash Mountain, Belt 2 A$$, Dairy Bird, Planet Pat, all of it. Celtics are too tough at home for anyone to lay an egg without Giannis.

With Mitchell dealing with injuries in Cleveland and the Knicks a few games back the Bucks are in a good position to lock up a 2 or 3 seed even with Giannis missing time. It might even be a benefit as whole with Dame and Middleton getting higher usage, help prepare them for the playoffs.

Some silver linings.

Only thing is I'd like to see the "Big Three" get reps together on the court.

Comfortable win coming up

Would love too see AJ Green get a decent amount of minutes. Would be good to see how he matches up and how he fits in against Boston.

We’ve gotta bring it today. Celts are gonna be out for blood after we embarrassed them last time we played. If we come with the pube energy this could be really ugly.

Not sure, I don't think Giannis was at the game Sunday. Don't remember seeing him on the bench. I don't think it is weird if he wasn't, Bucks probably told him to stay home and rest.

I was worried until I saw Hauser was out.
