  1. Bucks might need to trade Lopez for myles or valacunes… they need to start bringing in talent that can be here for 2 years at least and before it’s too late they need to make a trade or two cus the bucks ain’t gona win anything they are also relying on Damian who will eventually get hurt

  2. The one guy that shouldn't be talking about the Bucks is Kendrick Perkins. This dude has deep, deep hatred for Giannis. It goes back yrs and yrs ago. Calling Middleton Batman and Giannis Robin just to create division. In 2019 MVP race, Giannis didn't have Middleton and the Bucks were #1 and Giannis averaging 30 points but LeBron had AD and averaging 25 points also #1 in the West. Kendrick Perkins and Stephen A Smith had the guts to say LeBron was the MVP despite LeBron having AD. And remember they have always said AD is better than Giannis. Don't believe me? Go watch the 2019 MVP debates. Also, last yr Giannis played injured against the Heat and he got all the blame after the Bucks lost. Embiid on the other hand played like trash against the Celtics and they gave Embiid a pass. Good or bad, this dude shouldn't be talking about the Bucks. First of all he's a Celtics just in case y'all don't know.

  3. This pick and roll combo should’ve happened years ago, Dame wasted some years in Portland for sure, still glad he’s in a better situation before it was too late.

  4. Just know if the Lakers was doing exactly the same thing as the Bucks with a 13-5 record and defense problems. The media would not cover them like this lol.

  5. In the playoffs most games come down to who can win in the clutch. I don’t see how learning to win close games together is a negative?

  6. they win it's an issue, they lose it's an issue. who cares about double digit wins as long as they get the W ans we're not even 20 games in

  7. this has to be the most ridiculous question i’ve ever heard. they’re winning but are you worried that they’re in too many close games? we just looking for something to talk about.

  8. They find every little reason to nitpick the bucks. Y’all expect the bucks to blow out teams but then they would say they ain’t playing anyone. They win close games they’ll say why is it close? Can’t with these people. They gonna look up and be in the finals when it’s all said and done.

  9. Here's my take…yeah Milwaukee has some flaws on the defensive end, but after 20 games last season. They were 15-5. They are 2 wins away from having the same record. And they had one of the better defenses…I just wish the media would stop blowing things out of proportion. Stop assuming the Bucks should be playing and winning a certain way. It doesn't make any difference if you blow a team out or win by a few points. A win is a win. And nothing is guaranteed come playoff time if your team isn't healthy.

  10. They are too close because their defense has been terrible. Why? Quite a few reasons:
    1. They didn't use drop until November
    2. Their best perimeter defender, Jae Crowder, is injured and will be out until December. Then Marjon, their other wing defender, also got injured.
    3. They lost all of their perimeter defense: Jrue, Jevon Carter, and Wes

    Having said that, their defense in the clutch has been decent. Their problem was the 1st quarter, in which they always started slow. Additionally, they got absolutely terrible opponent shooting luck. They had multiple teams shoot 50% from 3. I don't care how open you are, that's a bonkers number.

    Finally, I fully expect them to make a trade and probably sign someone who gets released.

  11. The bucks made so many tiky tack mistakes against Boston. Multiple turnovers from continuity issues. Dame threw the ball out of bounce 3 times thinking someone was going to be there when they weren’t. They also missed a ton of wide open layups. Doubt that will happen again. And owe the bucks only lost by 3 points? Yeah, give them some time to click and they’ll beat Boston.

  12. i'd rather take the bucks this year that's amazing in clutch rather than the last year's bucks that's amazing in choking leads in the 4th 🤷‍♂

  13. The fact of the matter is the Bucks play best in clutch moments when the game slows down. Its pretty much how most games are played in the playoffs. They may get better at a faster pace with more reps with the new coach and players but i dont see why it matters.

    Last year they had the best record for what? To not really be a strong playoff contender, but this year they look like a team that can win big in the playoffs. The heat last year were hot garbage in the reg. season and yet they went on to go to the finals. Just saying as a Bucks fan my hopes are high that this team with play its best basketball when it counts, but with that being said: the coaching and defense leaves a lot to be desired.

  14. Was work in progress when Dame got to Milwaukee and it took a bit of time for Gainnis and Dame to fully click, now it looks like it’s starting to roll.
    This duo will be deadly and expect 30 plus pts from both of these guys every game and Bucks finally got that closer for them not just a closer but super clutch closer 🔥🙌

  15. Bucks have been beating teams by double digits in the past few regular seasons.. That didnt create enough experience for the tough post season games. As a bucks fan i am happy they are battling for wins. Win is a win as far as they are improving the chemistry!
