Yet another game where Hill is the crunch time PG.

Bled is the 5th or 6th most important guy on the team, when it comes down to it Hill will be the one closing games

We only lost 1 game(Pacers) due to load management this season and it wasn't clearly load management anyway with Giannis skipping 2 games due to his Liam's birth.

Charlotte’s announcers were even better.

Paschke constantly chatters through spectacular highlights. Nothing the broadcast team says is ever more interesting than a great play.

Be careful, a couple of the self proclaimed geniuses here will scream that Buds totally trusts Bledsoe and he's really the crunchtime PG.

Whole team was ass outside of Giannis but holy ****.

RoLo
Matthews
Bledsoe

Good god.
Hill having a Bledsoe like game was disturbing.

I think this was even worse than the Philly game but Giannis was just like “nah.”

Possibly the most impressive part of Giannis today was that he somehow managed 6 assists despite his teammates shooting at the wrong hoop.

If you trust Bled in crunchtime then you haven't been watching, having Hill makes the decision easy

I suspect a habit borne from years working dreary games, but yeah, that and the pre-packaged segments playing over the game are actively harmful to the experience.

Shocking that the streak is over. I wasn't able to watch but from what you guys are saying Gianni was brilliant (again).

They probably have home court (if they kept Burks and Robinson).

I must be missing this. Seems to me that when Giannis does something spectacular he goes pretty silent, which I love far more than the Gus Johnson climax reaction. Let’s the moment sink in and seem more dramatic

Johnny Mac deserves to do atleast one game this season if he is able.

Giannis Antetokounmpo tonight: 17/28 from the field. Rest of Bucks team: 18/59 :lol:
Giannis scored or assisted on 25 FGs.
He basically soloed them.

I’m pretty sure he was rambling on about Jack Sikma at Illinois State or something in the midst of Giannis’s filthy one handed tap pass off the inbound back to George Hill.

I love seeing the reaction from the (opposing) fans on that dunk. Now people go to their home games to see Giannis. That's incredible.

Close games are good for the team. Nice win against a fired up team who had just beaten Toronto on the road.

No one should give two craps about the 100 point streak. Hell the all time streak is 136, we had a long way to go for that one and unless they start giving out championship trophies for it I couldn't care less.
I'm against picketing but I don't know how to show it.
