Classic let down game. Tournament game. Giannis dominated them Monday night. Need to get back on track.

Go Bucks

I think a win and Heat loss secures 50k minimum for each player and AG. 75% of 50k for the assistants.

Great opportunity for a get right game after losing to Boston. Giannis needs to dominate and the defense really needs to clamp down and not let Poole and Kuzma have a field day scoring like last game.

Need this to be a confidence game for quite a few of the guys after Boston. I still can't believe how many basic lay-ups were missed in that game. Everyone but Brook was off offensively (and of course, we were our usual sieve on defense).

140-124.

Giannis listed as probable with non covid illness

Must win.

Agree 140-124 makes sense, I don't know if we can hold down a bad team to 104

For what's it's worth in regard to Giannis not having a great game vs Boston, he said he had a cold in his post game interview yesterday.

Not to be a smart ass, but he looked like he had some brain fog Wednesday.

Get right game for the Bucks.

We Bucks fans can sometimes be cruel
One loss and we want to retool
But today I'll be grateful
For cold turkey, a plateful
And to face Wizards like Jordan Poole

Is the once-promising Poole now a running joke in the NBA? The morning team on NBA radio, Frank Isola and Brian Scalabrine, openly mock another host, the somewhat doofus-y Rick Kamla, for enthusiastically saying Poole is his kind of player.

Now watch him go for 50. Bucks still win though, something like 150-124.

We’re at the point where Giannis dominating against teams like the Wizards is completely meaningless if not detrimental to the long term outlook of the team.

Getting fat on bad Washington teams, far from being detrimental, is what champions do. The 1950s Yankees coasted to the World Series year after year by piling up wins against the Washington Senators. And if there were no Washington Generals, where would the Harlem Globetrotters be?

May the Bucks carry on the tradition tonight. It's not about bad habits. It's about championships, baby.

If you have the time, take them up to the 3rd deck to the Panorama club (it's free, I promise) and get the overview of the court and even a peek at downtown Milwaukee from a super unique view.

Giannis downgraded to questionable. He was sick Wednesday night and appears he's worse.

tedbrogen · Post #16 » by **tedbrogen** » Fri Nov 24, 2023 6:16 pm

Really need Beas to miss a game or two to force AG’s hand with starting Marjon or Dre instead. Preferably before Crowder gets back or they’ll just start him instead.

Getting off to better starts would be helpful. We are really good in the rest of the game

Covid and something else non covid is spreading through mke right now so id be surprised if he goes tonight. Waiting for the round of covid cases this winter the numbers are up and youd have to expect a few players to catch it.

If Giannis doesn't play and we are playing Washington then there is no better opportunity to go:

Lopez
Middleton
Beauchamp
Jackson
Dame

What's really going to happen:

Lopez
Pat
Middleton
Beasley
Dame

There is also a fan area where they have a "my first game print out". Sometimes they give a small little gift. (both are meant for littlier kids). It's left side of the arena when going in the main entrance. Ask an usher at the stairs and they would know
