Finally a win over a team that isn't one of the 3-10 worst teams in the league.

And we beat them very convincingly. No complaints here.

Also, I only got to watch the second half. Why did Adams only play 17 minutes?

Great game. Lack of bigs and guards able to guard Adams/Westbrook was too big for the bucks to have a chance.

Team is slowly improving. I expect a lot of up & downs during the season with hopefully overall improvements.

Definitely a step in the right direction, let’s see if they can build on this over the next couple of games.

Because we would have won by 60 if he played more.

Progress on both ends. I love it.

29 according to ESPN

George really hasn't been impressive. Hopefully we get the all-NBA version eventually

Grant might be making strides.

i'm just glad melo was able to pay off that possession where giannis erased his existence. that was a sweet move by melo and giannis may be the only guy in the league who could have recovered to swat it after being beat so bad.

He might make an all-star team if he plays against third strings every night.

Yahoo has him at 17 as well. Less than all other starters and also Patterson, Abrines, Felton and Grant.

i really like all players mindset right now. No overreaction, win or lose. They seem to know it's a work in progress and the goal is to keep improving and perform the best we can comes playoff time.
