Some good signs shown indeed. Romania was not at our level of course, but they did keep a high energy level for most of the match (these are not exhibition games, the teams play defense).
The match with England tomorrow should be a little more competitive.

We look ok even without Giannis, I didn't expect that to be honest. Unbalanced roster, too many wings, not enough shooters, but at least everybody looks in great form. Great passing too. Papagiannis has been working on his game and his body, that's great to see.

So are you guys Bucks fans or just Giannis fans??

Giannis fans are like GSW fans anytime someone talks crap about something they are doing they have to defend it and they attack in a group of posters. Never tell a GSW fan that Curry isn't in the top 5 players in the NBA and never tell a Greek Giannis fan that he shouldn't play on his NT.

Real test will come against Serbia in Belgrade. Let's see how Giannis gets integrated in the team.

I started out as a Giannis bandwagoner, but 4 years later the Bucks are now very dear to my heart. I've just been through too much crap with this team.

That's just silly though, can't really blame them for getting defensive.

I mean it isn't that far off. There are some really good players out there and the top 3 are easily Kahwi lebron KD. So there is only 2 spots left for the rest.
