That was Budenholzer's D
Back on the Bucks board I was actually freaking out how many wide open twos we were allowing, but that was the plan all along, to take away the 3 and the paint as much as possible and lure guys into long twos. It worked out I guess.

John Hensen, who made one 3pt in his entire career, made two against the Pacers this game

Middleton went 5/9 on 3pts; on one of his attempts, it amazed me that he took a highly contested shot with Bogie's hand in his face; in this game he got lucky that the ref bailed him out, in another game another time, he would probably probably have gotten yelled at

Only thing that left a bad taste in my mouth was letting Tony Snell score 10 points.

Watching him score point after point... All i could think to myself as I watched this unfold was, "now i know how Toronto fans felt when Kobe scored 81 on them".

I liked seeing 4 3pt attempts from Myles even though he didn't make any. I want his shot attempts to be at tonight's level every night, in the 12-15 shot attempt range.

we got to 100 so the game was won at the other end. Bucks offense carried the night.

THEy took three point shots at about the same clip we hit twos. And, about half their shots were 3’s. I think Middleton took 9 three point shots. We need to create that same number of 3 pointers for our best shooter (McDermot). Yes, I’d reverse the minutes of mcDermot and Boogie. And try to run more offense to that position.

Bogie was great Wednesday but not Friday. I wouldn't demote him, but I wouldn't substitute by the clock either. The hot hand should play.

Bogies a career 38% 3pt shooter on over 4 attempts a night. Last year he shot over 40% from 3 on almost 5 attempts a night. I’m not sure we need McDermott instead of Bogie if we want to be a better 3 pt shooting team. Maybe both, with Bogie playing some small ball 4?
