They made almost every mid range shot, judging by the shot chart they went 18/24 outside the paint

It felt like the Blazers got a lot of wide open threes, especially in the first half. This is something to keep an eye on as it has been an issue for Bud throughout his coaching career. Over the five year stretch while he was the coach of the Hawks, the Hawks allowed the most open three pointers in the NBA and the second most three pointers overall. This season, the Bucks are allowing the most open three pointers (opponents are attempting 22.2 3P/game without a Bucks defender within 6 feet) and the second most total three pointers in the league (41.0 per game).

Bud lost the game tonight let it go uncontrollable all game.

Lopez good on offense beyond **** on defense.

Brogdon needs to get traded ASAP

Bledsoe terrible day for an off night.

Middleton disappeared.

Giannis some dumb shots by the end but overall did what he expected to do,.

We might need to make some adjustments.
Specifically that thing where they are always open? That thing.

Between them hitting everything they threw up, the refs swallowing their whistle all game, Bledsoe/Brogdon looking like D-Leaguers, and Bud coaching like a glue-sniffer for some reason, that was brutal to watch.

How is a team coached by Terry Stotts that good? Haha.

Ugly. Plain and simple.

Bucks would have very rarely won this game. We might have a problem with guards like CJ, Kyrie, Kemba, all have went nuts against us

Giannis is great. Probably the best Buck since Kareem. But his hesitation when he gets the ball open at the top of the key hamstrings this offense at times. Teams know he's afraid to shoot it, so they let him sit up there and close the gaps created by the ball movement and reset. Sometimes this means that Giannis is able to drive and dunk with his incredible natural gifts. Othertimes, it leads to good position for drawing offensive fouls or turnovers because defenders have position on our guys.

He has to get it in his mind that he's either going to release on an open 3 or look to move it immediately, because when he hesitates for even a second, it leads to some really ugly basketball.

I'm starting to sour on Giannis. He's not perfect and I don't think he'll ever be at this point.

I hope the reason Giannis came out was because he passed up the open three for the long two. I'd support that decision. He had a frustrating game overall.

Portland was on it tonight. The defense has issues, but it's not a finished product. Bud isn't an idiot-- he knows he can't allow scoring guards to wreak havoc.
