We started 7-0 last year therefore anything less than that it clearly means we have regressed and have no hope.

The Rockets are the one team that we really need Bledsoe for. His defense on Harden is so valuable. Nevertheless, who on that team will stop Giannis?

On the other hand, if we do drop that game it's going to be really annoying to watch Harden thump his chest and act like it's some kind of proof of him being shafted last season.... even though we swept them last year....

NBA needs to stop these White Power symbols.

Looks like they finally fixed Sterling's numbers

We are significantly better than last season.

Just going off preseason, I suspect our bench will be better and our defense better because of robin Lopez.

But offensively we look about the same...a little too much standing around in the half court and too slow running our sets.

First preseason post.

Bucks in 6.

My only concern about the preseason is we have yet to see us up against any good teams. Utah was probably the best but they didn't have Gobert. But we did what we should and beat up on the bad teams

we're definitely better RS team than last year. Our depth is endless, pretty much anyone not named Giannis missing games and it doesn't even matter. We're missing Bledsoe for how many games now and I didn't even notice.

The Bucks are so deep. Deeper than they've ever been in my 35+ years watching them.

Even on a poor shooting night, and missing their first-team all defense point guard and primary ball handler, there is just so much depth that they can afford to just kinda lean on teams for 48 minutes and bury them.

I haven't actually watched a single preseason game but has Brogdon been missed, like, at all?

You really think they will lose to the Nets and Hornets?

Ehh half of the league went against **** foreign teams to make them look better than they do and we didn't even get that luxury.

DJ must love having weird dudes around. We probably have the weirdest team in the league. I bet these guys love Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind as much as I do.

Top 5 movie of all time.

Who?

I don't mean this is a bitter "Brent Favre" kind of way, but truly I forget he was the team last year. Same with Snell. If Bledsoe or Midds go down, I will take back everything I just said.

That's fair. All I'm saying is we beat up on these teams and we should have. It's like Wisconsin football beating up on South Florida & Central Michigan. They looked great but they should have dominated. I'm waiting to see how the game against Houston goes, but I am excited by how we have looked as a whole

It'd be one thing if we just came off another mediocre 42-40 season and people were getting too hyped over preseason. But this team won 60 games in dominating fashion last year. The preseason is just a continuing trend of that. This team is great because of the talent and system and people need to just start getting used to that.

You could tell last preseason that we were gonna f**k teams up, too.

A well-oiled machine is a well-oiled machine, whether the games matter or not.

I honestly think we'll hand it to the Rockets pretty good. I think the game starts off sloppy, the Rockets go on a mini run in the 2nd quarter, Bucks settle in and pull away. 12-15 point win.
