Game Thread, G16: Hawks at Bucks, 01/24/2021

For Sundays matchup vs Bucks all eyes will be on Giannis, however the matchup I'll be watching most closely is Hunter vs Middleton.

It will also be interesting to see if LP sticks with Huerter in the starting lineup. DDV vs Huerter. Or does Cam start to matchup vs Jrue leaving Trae on DDV.

There is a concern with Lopez pulling Capela from the paint, so I want to see how LP counters. I think we'll be cross matching in some form so Capela stays close to the basket.

Started at -7 I believe last night so public pounding Bucks. To be honest I haven’t seen the Bucks more than once this season. Not sure what to expect. Like other teams I guess it depends on if they bring it. Funky season.

So Bud made Horford a three point shooting big man and Brook Lopez. What would happen if he had Capela on his roster. Would he just start shooting threes as well? Always kind of wondered that.

I haven't been impressed with Milwaukee and their style. I hope we keep the pace of the game fast but that will depend on if we're making our shots or not.

Welp. We'll finally get to see how the offense flows without ball-hogging Trae Young pounding the ball into oblivion. Huerter, Cam and Collins need to ball out and put up some big numbers tonight -- win or lose.

If those guys throw up a big goose egg tonight as the featured players on offense, I don't ever want to hear them complain about touches again. And if those three can't keep us even remotely close without Trae...then none of them are worth anywhere near a max contract.

Put up or shut up time, fellas. No excuses.

Welp...having Trae running the offense wasn't so bad, huh...John?

Hunter is an absolute hooper.

Making John Collins expendable as we type. Love watching JC...but all I get is Shareef Abdur-Rahim empty 20/10 double doubles with him.

Hate to say it.
