Tough B2B. Denver lost at Cleveland Saturday night but they're very good at home.

Loss 3 in a row and 4 in 5. Let’s just get to the playoffs. Lakers will pass us, but I can’t see toronto or Boston catching us

Would be ironic if we were hoping this whole time that the Sixers drop to the #6 seed to avoid them in round 2. They drop to #6, but then we drop to #2....lol. I am kidding, Giannis will probably be back Thursday and we have enough of a cusion that we will still get the #1 seed in the east if we simply just beat the sub .500 teams left on our schedule. The Lakers are the only team that might jump us and I still think the Clippers will win the west anyway.

Easy to predict the Loss for the Bucks. As easy as to predict the way their defense will fail them in this game.

Bucks 2.5 point dogs

I like the fight with this team. If we get off to a good start and play with the lead I like us here.

The NBA is funny sometimes. We in a funk atm but think we're going to win anyway.

Maybe a nice small losing streak will get Bud to wake up. We need some kind of spark of creativity on offense. We've been stale since Charlotte.

Well Nuggets just got railroaded by the Cavs in their last matchup which means they’re gonna come out like gangbusters against us smh.

Just need to get back to playing good basketball and work out whatever is making everyone clumsy and turnover prone

We could not beat them at home so how the hell can we them at home without Giannis. Blow out.

Seems pretty easy; they shoot better than 40% on 3s and we shoot <30% on 3s and it's a loss. Otherwise, I like our guys' chances.

We lose 3 in a row during the regular season for the first time since Joe Prunty was our coach.

Both 2-way guys are on the trip. Play the bottom 8 of the roster heavy minutes, sit everyone else & get rested to beat the hell out of Boston on Thursday. This is a schedule loss anyway.

Mason
Connaughton
Brown/Korver
Wilson/Reynolds
Ersan/Thanasis

Absolutely agree.

There are 18 games left. As much as people are going to dislike this, the Bucks need to decide what is the number they believe they need to reach to at least contest for the #1 overall seed and plan for that number instead of playing their main players in games that are most likely losses (and are not against conference rivals for the top seed in the East).

Denver is a funny ass team. They lost from the Cavs the other day with Jokic having a 8-8-8 game.
I expect them to go on a barrage again from the 3p line with Jokic having a triple double against us.

Maybe we need to start playing our main guys more minutes. I look at basically every other team and their starters are playing close to 40 minutes.
