Or at least involved in a pick and roll where they have to think about it for a second.

Through I think it was partly go after who ever Franz is on

Lillard was crap tonight. Shot us back in a bit, but was -19 when the rest of the starters were fine. Four TO, 4 fouls. Cole Anthony had a huge game.

Kpj did not touch the ball for a long time. He is the playmaker, not Dame. That was the crucial mistake of the Bucks. Plus Dame defended poorly towards the end.

I remember when Dame was on fire and Giannis and Brook wouldn't pass him the ball.

That spin move step back 3 was a thing of beauty.

Dame completely forgetting that Giannis exists on the final possession of 1 possession games has gotten really annoying.

What makes it even worse is they are horrible shots.

Yes that was the reason we lost.

Those words were in my post where...?

Dame is a good player but his yearning to show off Dame time is terrible for the Bucks.

Yeah Dame isn't the reason we lost this game. He wasn't great but he was good enough.

It was kind of a reverse Dame game where he made his big plays early to keep us in but missed the showcase shot.

Really wish a fadeaway off balance 3 wasn’t the shot we were looking for down 2. Ball should have been in Giannis’s hands

Kuzma's shot making is going to be the end of us. A wild ride either good or bad.

Will live with Dame at the end of games but a pretty tough shot there.

Tonight is on Kuzma & Brook, and a little AJ Green. The first 2 were straight up bad tonight.

You can throw it into the greatest interior basketball player in the league or you can let the tiny guard guarded by the huge wing take a deep fade away 3 with no vision. Tough choice...

I would like to run an actual play there instead of letting Dame go iso. Everyone knows what's coming and the looks have been mostly bad in games like this.

Only caught the 4th of this one but Kuzma and Giannis missed 3 bunnies with like 4-5 minutes to go. KCP blocking Dame and having it go off his fingertips. Just one of those games imo.

I wish we'd go 82-0 but I'm not going to get worked up over a loss. We're 6-2 with Giannis/Dame/Kuzma/KPJ ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

AJ didn't make a basketball. That's pretty big when he is on the floor for his three point shooting.

Dame was -19 tonight. Strong argument he was the biggest reason they lost.
Do it for Chuck
