All these injuries to the Bucks give Doc another pass. Won't be on the hot seat after this.

That’s good for us though. Lol

Pacers still need to finish off the bucks.

If Giannis plays in the remaining 3 games, they might have a shot. It’s over otherwise.

[KillahGhostface]

It’s almost Aaron Nesmith time.

Imagine how lucky you are to be alive at the exact time to see him.

13 on 6 shots, 2 blocks.

We are all witnesses.

Myles Turner, late bloomer?

Really disappointed Brad didn't get Gallo while he could, he's had such a big impact for Bucks.

[Triple7]

Damn the wolves are loaded. Their size and length at all position overwhelming the suns. Could give the nuggets problems, especially with jamal iffy.

Defense like that will never let Luka win a chip.

Those who keep saying Luka is better than Tatum, just look at this pathetic defense from Luka.

Lol. If you try really hard, you could find some weak ass defense on anyone, even defensive player candidates. Also, by your logic, Steph Curry shouldn’t have won any chip. You just need to surround them with defensive players to cover up their weakness. That’s on the coach.

You need to be just good enough not to be able to consistently get picked on. Steph was definitely good enough to not get picked on, and had an all time great defensive player behind him.

Teams with good wings relentlessly target Luka.

This.

Triple7, nobody is asking Luka to be a good defender.

Just be decent so that he won't be picked on.

That's the same problem the Bucks are having with Dame.

The rotation gets screwed up when teammates have to help Dame.

Steph is not really a good defender, but he does enough to keep offenses honest.

Nope. Steph was always getting picked on. Good for him he had all world defenders for teammates in klay, draymond, iggy and bigman bogut. Same thing with luka. You guys just want to see what you want to see. I just watched game 2 of the mavs clips live, and i tell you, luka ain’t lazy. Also, i takes a lot trying to score while being doubled, and give it all on the other end. Its the coaches job to hide that weakness. We played against a heat lineup of lowry, vincent, duncan robinson, strus all playing at the same time last year, yet we didn’t exploit all the mismatches.

Nah. Steph and luka are the same on D. Just like what you’ve said, steph had draymond, and a bunch of good defenders covering for him. Luka had nothing like that.

[Lee Van Cleef]

The Wolves might win the West if Jamal Murray is gone. I don’t think OKC would stand a chance against them.

Edwards reminds me of Jordan so much. He even looks like him!

[Shak_Celts]

Ant that dude and it's been a pleasure watching him! Excellent leader and player!

Exactly! He has the skills and mentality. A two way menace.

[Boston508]

Damn, how many people are going to get hurt today? Everyone going down. Wolves coach just got hit.

[Triple7]

1st time ever coach getting injured in the game. Weird game.

Beal continued to prove people right about him being better than JB. He made it look easy playing with other excellent players. His defense was excellent too. So easy to become a good defender if you say it, I never doubted it. Sorry we missed out. I'm sure he'll be in the MVP convo next season to prove once and for all, JB is a bum in comparison.
