This reminds me of the bull Quin Snyder was doing last year in Atlanta.

Jokic's jumper is lot better this season early. Glad he got his wrist healed.

Interesting with Olynyk out, the Raps were defending Jokic with the rookie Mogbo.

Paolo Banchero with an absolutely monster half. 37 points (on 17 shots), 7 boards and 6 assists in just 20 minutes.

Just an idiotic scheme. Siakam doesn't have the strength to defend him without help.

Quickley is wearing a big arse cowboy hat. Looking like Norm McDonald from that SNL skit.

Celtics due for a loss, looking sloppy.

Bucks getting a lot of calls too.

I think they were going with the let him drop 50 and stop everyone else plan. But he was absolutely locked in to the point were they forced carlise to switch it up.

They tried Nesmith without luck. They should try Walker IMO.

Bucks beat the Celtics last season even while in a slump IIRC. They get up for those boys.

The calls the Bucks are getting this game is absurd.

First manufactured game of the season, I see.
