PG Kings: Bucks Hold on For 3rd Straight 

Post#1 » by MickeyDavis » Sun Apr 4, 2021 4:21 am

It wasn't easy, it wasn't pretty. Thank God for Jrue. Brook solid as well. As was Portis. I'll take any road win.
I'm against picketing but I don't know how to show it.

Khris started the fourth well and DDV was solid too

Also Khris was not good otherwise

Jrue looks more and more comfortable week by week. Can’t wait to see him in the playoffs.

I can't believe they somehow managed to not foul up 4 with less than 3 seconds to go. I CANNOT BELIEVE IT.

Jrue = Batman
Brook = Robin
Bobby = Nightwing
Khris = Two-Face (Harvey Dent)

Horst is probably on RealGM right now flexing the **** out of Jrue.

Jrue in a 7 game series is going to be huge.

Crazy how that wasn't a comfortable 14-15 point win. Bad habits and bad coaching going to kick us in the ass when it matters again if we're not lucky.

Great Win without Giannis

Brook should attack the rim more like today and shoot way less 3s

Jrue is so **** good. It's ridiculous. He can just take over when needed. We have NEVER had that with our number #2 in recent history.

Back to back west coast road wins against scrappy teams. I’ll take it.

Any win no matter how ugly is a solid win when missing your MVP and DPOY.

The bad news is that if NO wants to fully reset, the Bucks don't have the draft picks to make an offer.

Without looking up stats, the Bucks feel so much better pulling out the win late in close games this year.

Also, Jrue is great.

I think the heirachy is being established.

Jrue is taking up the role as the #2 guy everyone can count and and get behind. Jrue is showing he can pick up the slack.

He didn't come in and insert himself right away, he's been slowly building up and showing he's another leader on this team.

Really cool to see him transition into a leader on this team.

The downside is that Middleton has turned into a pumpkin in the past month and a half. Hope he regains his early season form.

Lopez with the quiet 26, Bobby with huge points of the bench with lineups that would otherwise struggle to score. Donte finally got his springs back.

Jrue continues to be the opposite of Bledsoe.

Cool that Bud let Nwora play though some mistakes and got better minutes later.

Khris really screwed me tonight, but great to see alpha dog Jrue.
