Game 19: Milwaukee Bucks at Phoenix Suns, Wednesday, November 22, 7PM MST

[bwgood77]

"It's just another game," Bledsoe said after Monday's 99-88 loss to the Washington Wizards. "Another game we just got to win. We got to win this game, get above .500, build off that."

Bledsoe said he wasn't sure how he would be received by the Phoenix crowd after helping to orchestrate his departure out of town.
"Who knows?" Bledsoe said. "I love the fans and I hope they love me back, but you know how that go. Love my teammates I played with while I was there. I'm just focused on the game. I got great teammates that will have my back."

Bledsoe did acknowledge that playing against his former teammates would bring him some extra joy...a team he still believes in "because they got way better players than their record show."

We would have been a lot better if he actually gave a flying f@ck when he was on the floor for us.

I want to win this one.

By a lot.

I've watched a couple bucks games since the trade and bledsoe really seems to have the same I don't really care to be out here attitude with Milwaukee as well. Maybe he's trying to learn the system and fit in the offense and find his way but he's giving the same non effort as he was here. Not running back on defense, taking terrible shots. I'm so happy we are rid of him and want this game badly

Let's feed Monroe for 40.

Wouldn't be mad

The Bucks without Jabari are just an average team IMO, we can win this one.

Antetokounmpo starts at PF for them...another tough matchup for Chriss and Bender.
Probably Jackson can try to defend him, he made a good job on Markanenn the other night.

They have lost two in a row and Bledsoe is not playing well.

I would like to see Bender on Giannis. Good test.

I have bad feelings about this game...

No matter the result, it's important to remember that Dragan has several years of physical maturation still before him. Remember how skinny Alex was at that age? Now, if nothing else, Alex is a physical force out there. Dragan won't be able to play the physical game for another couple years, yet. Still, it would be encouraging to see Dragan stay in front of the Freak.

You should. It'll be one of the few times this year Bled puts in 100% effort.

[m1chal]

I'd love to win this one, Monroe to go for 30/10 and Bled to have a 3/13 fgs, 4 ast game

Yeah really want to win this.

I have a feeling Bledsoe is going to cook Ulis and James though.

[darealjuice]

Got tickets for the game, be nice to get a win for me after I had to sit through losing to the Lakers. With that said, I’m fully expecting Bled to kill our guards and Giannis to make Quese foul him on the drive at least twice before the first three minutes pass.

[Mulhollanddrive]

Milwaukee will have to play small ball as they only have 4 fit players at SF, PF, C.

Expecting a big game from Monroe (possibly 20-10).

[MilotheSlayer]

Truthfully, the most frustrating part of the game is Bled is going to get every call on his bowlingball drives he does. Where he barrels into his guy then fades at the last second. He'll shoot 15fts and end with a triple double. Book and Warren should both have good games. Our conventional bigs (Len, Monroe) should both have big games.

[Stark]

Bled will be focused, he is a guy who chooses games. When he wants to play he is a serious threat. Like when he is playing against Westbrook and Lillard he plays like a beast but i think we forgot one thing Bledsoe is not going to be the only player who is going to be pissed. Monroe is also going to play hard. Whenever he plays against Detroit he always had a good game.

I think our biggest problem is still Giannis we have nobody who can guard him... Well most of the NBA teams also don't have a player like that. As long as Booker and Warren is hot we can win this. I'm not scared of Bucks.

We don't even know how many minutes Triano will play Monroe since Chandler will be back also.

Over or under that Chriss gets into foul trouble within 5 minutes ?
