Game 51: Sixers at Bucks - 2/9/25 - 1:00 p.m. -ABC - Giannis Out

[Matches Malone]

Damn, if Kuz would have finished that...

[MiltownMadness]

Refreshing to see someone working hard for rebounds.

We might be the best defensive rebounding team in the league at full strength, which isn't nothing.

We are one of the worst offensive rebounding teams in the league. Being a good defensive rebounding team when you are playing horrible defense is not something to write home about.

Bucks are 11th in defensive rating dude

Why so abrasive towards a point that could be a positive for our team? I don't get this place sometimes

[Matches Malone]

These cut ins are annoying.

Mark Jones sounds like he's talking through a can and string.

If you haven't noticed a defensive downtrend, then I don't know what team you are watching.

To respond to your edited addition: I was complimenting Kuzma attacking rebounds when you made the comment about being a good rebounding team.

[ReasonablySober]

Not a great final minute or whatever.

Yes, Giannis has been out and we were playing with 2 bigs before that with Bobby out. Tell me again who isn't watching

[MickeyDavis]

Fun half

[Matches Malone]

GTJ!

[midranger]

“NBA ratings are down.”
[watched Embiid and officials]
“Makes sense.”

[Balls2TheWalls]

Great find by Dame at the end.

Bucks are objectively a good rebounding team at full strength we were always towards bottom in offensive rebounding when we were elite rebounding team with Bud. Don't know what to tell ya. This team will be very good at rebounding with Giannis back, I don't know why you're arguing with me

[Dick Tate]

Nice pass but overall Dame ending the half looking like he played too many minutes.

[aboveAverage]

Gary Trent Jr has been fantastic, as he has been all season. Really underrated player, great pickup by Horst.

[MiltownMadness]

He had some uncharacteristic bobbles dribbling towards the basket that half. Don't think he likes afternoon games

You need players with active bodies, athleticism and anticipation to do that and we're severely lacking.

Agreed with your point on defense. This team is trending downward even When Giannis plays

It's not a good point imo, we were playing 2 bigs and one of them is unplayable in 50+% of matchups and the other doesn't like playing C, then Giannis went down. Need to see how it looks with a healthy roster + Kuz

No way, Hubie is a legend give him some credit.

We're still going to be playing Brook and Bobby very often. They're viewed as core pieces on our team.

[Packbuckman]

I hate watching Embiid play the biggest flopping big ever

[soxperry]

Kuz doing some nice small things. He needs to weed taking the ball into traffic without a plan out if his game and it will go a long way. His size and athleticism (vs Khris at least) is definitely helpful
