Glad we won

Fourth quarter was very strange. Doc left Giannis off for too long and we dropped our intensity as Ball and Miller kept making shots. We simple need to be locked in for 48 minutes because we can't have games coming down to Giannis being good at the line.

If they ever get healthy, it's a nice team. They'll need some more defenders though

All the Adrian Griffin truthers - remember we were having to come back from 20 points down to beat these same quality teams last year. Now we just lose 20 point leads against them!

It really was just as simple as benching Patty C. Dude has some good years for us, but now, like Thanasis, the team can help him transition to coaching if he wants it.

Gotta show appreciation to how well Dame played tonight, fantastic.

GTJ once more shows improvement game after game, love it.

Another win and Giannis played less than 32 minutes. I'm still not convinced Prince isn't just a different flavoured Pat.

In the post-expansion league, without a conference divide, Bucks are the 17th seed.

Get an athletic backup center that can play D and rebound and they are all set.

Giannis consistently dominating in the 2nd game of back to backs while other so called stars sit out isn't talked about enough.

Let's remember this tho.. take away 3 of our fast shots and run 20 sec off instead.. that's 1 full min less of clock for them. Did you see what they did the last minute that wouldn't have existed? Got within 2... learn how to run clock

For all intents and purposes we won 3 straight before he was benched. All performances were decent to good in this 12-game stretch other than the Knicks loss. So I don't think there's much to it. And no need to kick a guy when he's down.

Was he a difference-maker? No, but I don't think he was an albatross either. Did a lot of little things that added up - switchability, rebounding, facilitating, etc. Just not a couple big things - mediocre 1 v. 1 defender & wasn't hitting outside enough.

GTJ looks great... another of my predictions on track

I hate Hornets!!!

Going forward Doc needs to install more m9vement for Green and Trent Jr running of Portis and Lopez screens. Give me that over Bobby post ups

TA suffered a season ending injury training, after the Pacers eliminated the Bucks.

He's not hanging it up.

Everyone else is playing better ball. Patty C wasnt the reason Brook, Trent, or Bobby couldn't make a 3 to start the season.

No Patty C was the reason Patty C was shooting 35% and 30%.

Keep it rolling

Tough 4th but I'll take a win on the 2nd of a B2B. Super glad we could get that one, only 2 games in the next 7 days.

Barring injuries, LaMelo/Miller's gonna be a tough ass duo for a while. Will be interesting to see if they can put enough around them in the coming years.

Charlotte has certainly been vindicated for taking miller over scoot.
