Nonsense


Middleton plays like Kevin Durant against the Celtics. He almost always kills them.

Not sure how you consider this a good start to be honest. Bricked shots and turnovers. Luckily the bucks are equal to the task

Not being down 10 points already is a good start! :lol: :lol:

If it wasn`t for Middleton going crazy again we would be leading nicely...also our 3 isnt`t falling even though it was all open shots...

We have to be happy with our defense...just keep playing and we got this...

Great defense so far but the Bucks will adjust. We need to start hitting those wild open shots.

They are shooting too many threes. But i like switching strategy, it slows down Milwaukee.

It's probably a combination of butterflies, jacked up emotion, and rust from not playing in a week. We'll be fine.

He’s a great player but yeah, he shots some shots on the C’s. Jaylen I thought contested him nicely on his last trey and still bottoms

Try and get Bledsoe in foul trouble, keep attacking their back court and dictate the pace of the game. Most importantly move the ball and play as one.
