Giannis seems to be finding his stroke from the FT line at least. Best time of the year to be on a hot streak (ignoring literally everything else with this team)

The Bucks have a bunch of good basketball minds as assistants and Ham is second to Doc. That says it all.

Kuzma did play really well those first 2 weeks. So well that I was actually surprised and jokingly wondered if maybe he just had not been infected by Doc Rivers yet.

Maybe there is something to that.
Why does that feel so real?


Probably because there is some actual truth to it.

I just remember those first 2 weeks Kuzma played well and his effort and intensity level was noticeably higher than everyone else on the Bucks.

I also remember watching that and I was kind of joking, but I said maybe Doc or the bad vibes of team had not infected Kuzma, but they eventually would.

They have.

Stuff like that is why I don't buy the idea that this is a horrible roster. It's not a tier 1 roster, but it is a massively underachieving roster.

Think about it, I am the pessimistic jerk and my expectations going into this season were some of the lowest on the board.

But this Bucks team has even fallen short of my expectations.

We do not want to rebound. Refuse to on some instances.

That play was disgusting. Brook and KPG just refusing to even attempt to rebound.

Sure, but he's pretty much out of options. This roster, with a few guys out, is awful. Every wing option is a replacement level player

Our defense was top 10 when Ajax was playing then trade happened he benches him and starts prince with kuzma instead of GTJ and don’t play Ajax at all instead goes with Pat our defense is terrible now you can’t have that many slow footed players playing together but Doc does.


GTJ is also a bad defender, so I don't know what you're trying to get. Ajax has some gifts, but he's too dumb to put out there regularly.

Any guard is quicker than prince guarding any guard same with Pat are you watching them getting constantly blown by GTJ AJ at least try and for the most part keeps their man in front Ajax gives you more size for rebounding too

I think Prince gets too much hate. He has been a great minimum signing. He is an okay player being used wronged by the coaches but has been a consistent shooter for the Bucks.

Chasing stats but we could also blow the lead pretty quickly. Tough to manage.

Telling Giannis to take a seat when he is stat chasing in year where not much else is going right is not good for your career

Return to Milwaukee Bucks
