Game 39: Magic and Bucks - 1/15/25 - 7:00 - FDSWI

Rematch from Friday, it went down to the wire. Banchero was very good. Giannis was great.

Khris will play. Not sure about Trent. Not sure about Giannis.

As usual, please keep the discussion on the game itself. Thx.

All I want is to see us play multiple games in a row like we did last night. I swear to god we play 1 good game, then 4 average, then 1-2 bad games. Rinse and repeat.

"Magic and Bucks" sounds like a failed 80's buddy cop pilot starring Earvin Johnson, Jr.

Important for the standings. Need the W and protect home court.

Must win
Schedule loss

win 120-104
overreact when we lose

At what point does Trent or Green get inserted to the starting lineup? AJax is much more suited as a bench sparkplug.

IDK... Trent gives you some of the Dame vibes when Dame is out, that's most of your GTJ minutes..let him get some handling and 2 man game stuff with GA. Green comes in off the bench and is usually instantly hitting shots so why change that..

Dame found AJax on a baseline cut.. get him better at the timed cuts and get him some layups/dunks as teams overreact to GA and Dame action.

They might be babying this injury because the last time he tried to play thru an issue he sucked & tumbled down the depth chart. This weekend they were acting like he already could play if it was the playoffs.

The Bucks are going to need Green & Rollins to step up on both ends to make up for the loss. They have the younger legs, so shouldn't be as hindered by the back-to-back. One should start over Ajax, who should be situational like Pat. And this is not a match-up where Ajax has much to do on paper, so he should be straight benched, unless nothing else's working.

Yeah, plus Rollins is looking good with the minutes... good chance to see what we have

I think i prefer 'Orlando and the Buck'. Has a more 70's buddy show feel to it.

AJJ can be an "energy" guy off the bench. He has no business starting.
