PG: Bucks Ground Rockets

Post #1 » by **MickeyDavis** » Mon Dec 18, 2023 2:32 am

Great, hard fought win on a B2B. Bucks win their 4th straight while ending the Rockets streak at 5.

Khris Klutch in the 4th.

AJJ very nice game in a career high 36 minutes.

Dame had a couple of bad turnovers down the stretch but had an overall very good game.

Rockets have put together a good team. Some bad years with high picks. Then used cap space for some talented vets.

Khris Middleton and Malik Beasley are the same player imo

I think we have to live with that, he does it every game.

Start of the Dre era.

Sneaky good win. Houston checks-out as a scrappy solid team; feel good about this on the second half of a B2B.

I was switching between Bucks and NFL game.

1.) Can someone tell me what happened when Giannis was bleeding? I saw him called for a foul then turned around and his arm was bleeding pretty heavily.

2.) Does anyone have video of what Brooks did? I missed it.

That was a very good W. Physical game in a B2B and they outlasted a solid Rockets team. Dre really gives the starting unit a good feel.

In Dre and Dairy Bird we've actually brought in some young guys with NBA skills. Marjon too, hopefully we can see an uptick in his play soon.

Brooks would be a great fit for us.

Fun game. The team is definitely coming together. Dame was one free throw shy of a 40 piece with 11 assists. Giannis is now the franchise leader in points, rebounds, and assists.

Boy, the **Rockets** sure **blew up** at the end!

Feel like we should have won that a bit easier. Defensively this team keeps a lot of teams in games.

The starters/rotation definitely needs what Dre can bring to the table. His energy and hustle helped us out a ton when we were being a little careless and lazy. Having at least one perimeter defender who knows what he's doing is a bonus too.

It wasn't much. Got called for flopping (borderline) then had some words for the ref.

I don’t have an issue with Malik Beasley, I think he’s been somewhat of a pleasant surprise this year and welcomed addition. However, I think it’s finally time to make the smart decision and use him as a bench scorer and start Dre Jack. Let him take his lumps now when it doesn’t matter, when the playoffs roll around he’s gonna be even more useful. Get him acclimated now with the starters and closing group, tonight was a prime example. Awesome win. Dame Time is hall of fame time, long live Giannis and Khris and Brook are good. #KingsOfThe4th

1. Nothing burger. Bad call on the foul. He got scratched by a finger nail.

2. Also nothing burger. Brooks kind of flopped out of bounds and yelled at ref who was right on top of the play. Got a T. Argued more, got a second. Game was already over. Shrug.

I’m not sure, but on the replay the ref called the T after he started yelling at him. He may have called it for flopping, but if his reaction isn’t to yell at the ref, nothing is called.

Almost 40 minutes tonight for Giannis on the second night of a back to back. Seemed like he played the entire 4th beside being out for a hot second to patch his hand.
