Giannis needs to hunt assists not points. This team would be unstoppable if that ever happened.

Giannis has couple of turnovers in a row and people lose their mind, i get it but relax.

Only thing worries me are the Free throws, those look terrible again

So impressed with Dame in that first half. All his minutes are good minutes. What an absolute killer.

KG and Stax and others were talking about how the first game of the year is always kind of a **** show in one way or another.

Agreed but I kinda like it. Have all season for them to gain chemistry together to make a lethal closing line up. For now, both guys comfort zone is being the guy on offense. Plus 48 minutes of having to deal with either Dame+Giannis, just Dame or just Giannis is hell to deal with defensively.

His inability to pass had been on display though. Just doesn't know where to go with the ball.

I can see him turning it around and maybe even being in the MVP conversation.

Middleton has been doing that for years, in bigger stake games, too. But I feel you. I feel you.


I should have given Mids more credit there. Jrue was not that guy. We have 2 guys now. Assuming Mids is healthy.

Giannis is a little rusty and probably trying too hard for Dame. I'd be surprised if he doesn't have a Giannis-like 2nd half.
Does he look a step slow? He did say he needs to lose some weight

What up with those Robin Lopez minutes, though? :)

Man definition of insanity is giannis doing the same thing over n over again n expecting different results.Why oh why does giannis refuse to get a mid range game I mean he would b unstoppable,For a dude that talks about improving every year he sure isn't doing a good job

We got this one. Sorry Philly, but Harden isn't walking through that door. Because he's fat. And can't fit through it.

I wanna see more of Marjon in the lineup. I like Beasley defensively but on offense he kinda is stagnant for now.

Giannis has worse hands than Rolo.

Chuck great take. Gianni's game will explode and be easier once he plays and commits off ball.

Preach Brother Chuck, preach. Giannis does need to learn how to move without the ball.

He is as close to a Bucks fan as a national pundit gets.
