Yeah early Brook was better.  Definitely more versatile offensively and similar defensively.

We don’t have enough explosive scorers to make a run nor a good enough defense to clamp down.

Don't care if Giannis misses all four FTs, keep going at mobley

The rebounding is really bad

Re: Game 3: Bucks at Cavs - 10/26/25 - 5:00 - FDSWI
Shame Turner slapped down, because there’s no way Mobley was making a layup there. He didn’t have full control of the ball.

Giannis not at all engaged with rebounding is a massive strike against coaching.Siefer wrote:The rebounding is really bad

Re: Game 3: Bucks at Cavs - 10/26/25 - 5:00 - FDSWI
Ridiculous to call that foul on Giannis after letting Cavs get away with more contact on more drives.

Re: Game 3: Bucks at Cavs - 10/26/25 - 5:00 - FDSWI
Bucks are stuck between a rock and hard place. They’re gonna want to make some moves to placate giannis but don’t really have any assets until the offseason.  
This team lacks a lot of fundamental basketball skills. While they’re athletic and unselfish, this is one of the worst rebounding/ball handling/passing teams we’ve seen in a long time. Turner and Bobby have been putrid early.

Re: Game 3: Bucks at Cavs - 10/26/25 - 5:00 - FDSWI
I love that we finally put together a roster with adequate ball handling and by game 3 the best 2 are on ice and we're back to flailing.

Maybe but it shouldn't take coaching to get a 2X MVP to rebound better.

I stand corrected. Lisa tells me it is only 4 fouls on Mobley....

I know his inside scoring over the course of his career does not match Brook. Both are solid shooters and can do it on volume too. Rebounding is known as a weakness for both. What am I missing?

Re: Game 3: Bucks at Cavs - 10/26/25 - 5:00 - FDSWI
Like how this team competes though.  We will be fine once we get our other ball handlers.  This thing clicks with KPJ in that starting 5

Green and Merrill both at 20 minutes.   Merrill has 6 3 point attempts, Green has 3.
