Giannis, BP and AJJ really willed us to the win this game. With Jae’s injury, it’ll only allow AJJ more opportunity to establish himself in the rotation. Giannis just been on an absolute tear too. Team showed more urgency.
Dame will be fine. Not worried about that. Nice to know we can win with him not playing at his best or Khris.
Still don’t like us giving up almost 20 offensive rebounds. That would just never ever happen under Bud (not a shot at AG but seriously don’t get why we keep doing that).
Not a fan of aggressive close outs either. They cause more bad than good. Hoping we go away from that.
Bout fucking time!!!
And just like that we’re the best team in the NBA.
If you don’t like hot an cold , bipolar fandom THEN YOU DONT LIKE BUCKS BASKETBAAAAL
EDIT: kinda sorta just wondering when Dame is gonna start hitting them smexy logo threes.
Good win derozan and Lavine had pretty bad nights and got a little too close for comfort at the end but team looked better
Finally some good fucking basketball
Guys. The real issue with this team so far this season is lillard. You can blame AG and prunty. You can blame pat or malik or bobby. Those are all easy scapegoats but the fact remains that the bucks worst lineups across the board are the ones with dame and without giannis. The bucks net rating with dame on the court with no giannis is horrific. The bucks are significantly better with neither dame nor giannis than they are with just dame. Cam payne has better chemistry with giannis at this point. We are 10 games in and they had a month of preseason and I’ve seen no improvements yet. The bucks will not get better until dame gets better. Complain about everyone else all you want, but it’s as simple as that. Now there’s plenty of time to improve and I trust dame will get better, but all the other issues we are complaining about will seem insignificant if dame can get back to his regular self.
I am convinced this team is winning it all
Shout out to Andre Jackson Jr. having an electric performance on his birthday today
Win is a win, but dude Bucks really have to cut down on turnovers.
So are they ever going to ramp Khris up some more? How about 25 minutes next game?
I’ll take it. Dame will get better. Giannis is back. And we shot the ball well as a team (emphasis team) for the second straight game. It is clear defense is our problem so hoping we can fix that as the season moves along. Go Bucks babay
Not to sound like a huge buzzkill and take away from a solid win, but the Giannis/Dame pairing is still so uninspiring.
I don’t think Giannis understands that he needs to adjust to being a roller to accommodate Dame (and get some easier looks for himself). He’s gotten so used to the Bud style with him creating at the top of the key. The only year we won was when we went away from that and used Khris more as a primary ball handler.
If we got Dame just for him to have to create on his own or just play off ball while playing worse defense than Jrue, I’m pretty confident we’ll see a second round exit.
Man, Dame was the worst Buck tonight
Swap Marjon & Beasley, give AJJ some more minutes and Pat a few less. Dame is gonna be a rough start until christmas I imagine, notorious slow starter who’s now dealing with injury early in the season
Defense looked solid in the first half and in a few posessions during the third when we fought back against the Bulls run. Trending in the right direction we just need more time.
Still looking for that sweet spot but I’m fine with all the experimenting with lineups and schemes early on. Reserving serious judgement for 2024.
Giannis is still the best player in the world idc
yay a win
So, like… let’s just play the Bulls every game.
Damn Dame statline is horrifying :O
Said this in the game thread but if I’m Griff I give giannis a rest game and let dame play a game of Portland chuck ball just to get heated up.
Seems he’s playing very unsure of himself..we win by 30 if those 3s he missed are half an inch closer and you could tell he was just frustrated and not having fun out there.
Let him go fucking nuts one game.
Was a nice win. I have zero confidence in AG fixing schemes to maximize Dame offensively, and I pray Giannis/Dame get at least a decent 2 man game by the playoffs. Some stars just don’t fit sometimes, and so far it’s looked like that.
Bobby with the +24!!!
Giannis is really really good. He gets 35 without any set plays its just insane. I can’t imagine how good he would be if they had an actual offensive minded coach
Turnovers and rebounding still seems to be an issue, but our defense seemed much better than usual
I get the vibe that neither Dame nor Giannis want to boss the other one around and now they’re just tip-toeing around each other. It’s weird man. They’ll figure it out but it’s not of the question that the personalities didn’t automatically mesh as well as everybody assumed.
Happy Birthday Andre. He turns 22 today. I hope he continues to get more opportunities to play in the rotation like today.
bobby always destroys the bulls. i swear i saw him have his career game against them last year
Fun game to watch Bobby go off!
