The one thing I would like to see is Claxton slashing to the basket harder. Don't need to try and post up when that clearly isn't his strong suit. But I'm not mad at this point lol.

Middleton hitting shots now. Showing up late and we're still playing tough defense on him.

We need to pressure Middleton and not give him good looks. Shutting him down basically kills the Bucks offense.

need to see clax pass out of the paint as well when the D has him stood up with help waiting. the quicker he's able to make that read the better the offense flows.

Middleton got one uncontested turnaround jumper, and then made his next two contested 3s. He's too good of a player to be this bad for this long.

He made few really tough shots. I'll give him that. Can he make it constantly vs us.

I know we can

What a half.

We looked a little tired at the end - not sure if it was the heavy minutes, or just slowing it down cause of the score - or their zone took us out of rhythm.

Let's shut it down in the 3rd.

Screw these halftime clowns. They are all rooting for the bucks and acting depressed. Sweep these losers.

it’s going to be hilarious when casual NBA fans realize we have 4 picks in the draft after a championship run and developing Brown, Claxton, Shamet.

Keep the pressure on him. If he can beat us jacking up contested threes God bless him.

They picked the Bucks to beat us. They don't watch our games so they're shocked to see that we actually can defend.

Want to express my respect for Blake. This guy is rising for the moment and is the xfactor going forward. Hustle and just playing smart basketball. Hope he stays a Net for our time with the big 3. The haters with their washed comments can keep eating their crow. He is awesome out there.

Marks is out here snatching playoff calibre role players like they grow on trees. I don't think we're ever going to struggle for depth.

I trust Marks, but even I had my doubts after the Harden trade. The pick ups he made were huge. Everyone wanted to focus on Blake and LMA because they were big names (and they wanted to cry about the buyout market), but the other guys he picked up have been huge as well. If Marks doesn't win executive of the year then its high way robbery.
