Really nice touch on that shot by PP.
Nothing wrong with having a different opinion - as long as it's done respectfully. It'd be lame if we all agreed on everything :)

Didn’t love the last shot. If he hit it I would have.

Sam was about to be wide open with a little more JT patience on that last shot. Usually he’s great at finding Sam.

Expect these shots from Dame and Giannis to fall for them eventually. Don't veer away from what got you the lead. Offense has been crisp so far apart from a couple of meh early shots

Really wish JT would be more quicker with the ball in the post. I get he’s trying to read the defense and bait them into doubling but sometimes I just want him to get the ball and right away attack his defender towards the hoop before the defense even can double.

Overall, can't complain about a quarter like that. Now keep it up!

For as bad as Gianni’s and dame have been, you think they’d be behind more

Other than settling for some quick 3 point shots. I feel we are a far superior team and . The bucks will have no answers for us.

Only 1 trip to the line for Giannis and Dame in the quarter, about 10 shy of the usual.

Hauser is over a 42% 3pt shooter, when he's on.

There's definitely some shooting variance involved in building the lead. I hope they realize that and keep playing hard.

Other than a few early pull up threes but I like the way they're playing

I'd like to see Holiday completely eliminate the pullup 3s and get Porzingis in some pick and pops to get him going.

Never understand this teams ability to beat itself.

Don’t foul, be patient on offense but not in a hold the ball kind of way either, get rebounds and we’ll win this one pretty easy.

They can’t guard us so we can’t let them get easy ones (from the line or second chance points).

Agree on Giannis and Dame but Milwaukee still has to stop someone
