I usually like Anderson and don't mind SVG but it was crazy how they kept hyping up ATL hanging in there despite their poor shooting. They shot 41% to our 31% from three

Also we were all probably too hard on Dame. That’s actually a heckuva game against Daniel’s. He absolutely dogged Brunson on Wednesday. He’s a great defender. The Hawks are really good when they are healthy.

Any win against a healthy playoff team is a good win. Some are only happy when it rains. Personally I think that's Garbage.

Yes, and its refreshing


I totally forgot about Wright.


We'll see him again

He is in preseason mode.

Yup, Atlanta shot poorly because we controlled the dribble and contested everything inside.

Hawks had 7 offensive boards. Last time they had 15.

Hawks had 3 steals tonight. Last time they had 16.

Hawks had 42 points in the paint, last time they had 64.

Hawks had 15 fast break points. Last time 30.

The improvements from 10 days ago are remarkable.
I'm against picketing but I don't know how to show it.

Yup. He's the king of clutch defense.


It’s a real thing too. People should talk about it. He’s a monster in close and late games on defense



Bucks 2nd in the NBA in clutch defensive rating. We know why.

Its to bad in MVP voting that they don't look at defensive side of things, if they did Giannis would win it in a landslide!
I owe dairybird a apology, didn't think he was a player in the NBA , let alone a integral part of our rotation. Too bad he gets zero respect from the reffs.
Can't stand Young! , I get it he is a great player, but the head snap back like he got shot and him throwing out his legs and push offs with the reffs falling for it is disgusting! On top of it he gets the continuation almost every time! Crazy that they don't do the same for Dame!
Nice win , especially after our last time we played these guys!

I’m happy about it because it felt the Hawks really had our number since the Championship. Many games where they just ran us off the court due in part to our aging players.

All I know is that is the sweatiest I’ve ever seen Khris. Was practically a walking swimming pool.

I really hope we get the Rockets. Brook owns Sengun.

A sufficiently motivated Giannis can block literally any shot.

When the lights are bright, Khris Middleton glistens he glistens because the lights are hot and he glistens because he sweats alot.

End of that game felt like the end of those games in the 2023 playoffs vs. Miami. Maybe it’s all Khris’s fault?
