Never seen a team get easy rebounds like this without any resistance off missed shots like this.

If giannis doesn't catch his proverbial second wind i dont see how the bucks take this one, they need him aggressively setting screens rolling hard and bullying down low. Right now he is WALKING around the court pretty much, bunch of horrible defensive miscues from him too.

Man, neither team playing well, but Suns are sloppy..too many turnovers...and fouls.

It's always going to be tough going against basically an all star team...or at least 5 all stars or former all stars but more Suns players need to step up.

Free Rider wrote:My god if the Bucks has a real point guard they would be so deadly. There are so many times where they've missed a wide open and streaking player because of the tunnel vision of guys like Holiday and Teague running their offense.


I keep thinking about what their offense would look like if they had someone like T.J. McConnell or Rubio at the point and Holiday back to shooting guard. I think they're going to try and bring in someone like that during the off-season.

why did the refs switch to calling the game soft? It's not like a fight broke out or anything.

Moving screens make the NBA unwatchable at times.

Yet it’s a tie game with him having a bad game. Bucks could easily win this even with him playing like this. Says a lot about the Suns.

Has Tucker ever committed a foul in his professional career? He always looks genuinely shocked when he gets called for one.

Both teams were equally exposed in that half.

I’m just not as impressed with Holidays defense as others are. Even with Giannis a little off, game still tied.
