The Bucks with another good defensive showing in the 2nd half. It seems like Pat Bev’s influence on this team has had an impact, but it’s all about stringing together wins if you’re Milwaukee
GOOD W BUCKS, WHAT THEY GOTTA SAY NOW?! THE TOP TEAM IN THE WESTERN CONFERENCE, BEAT THEM ON THEIR HOME FLOOR SO I NEED THE BUCKS HATERS TO STFU FOR A BIT 🔥
The Greek Freak & Dame both double double. Good game BUCKS
First
Zion Cooked!!
8/23 (34%) and 2/6 (25%) from 3. Damian Lillard sucks yall and there's no other way around it🤣🤣🤣. This dude eill get Doc fired🤣🤣
Loved watching this one! There was great energy and a lot of defensive effort 👍
Great win Milwaukee 🎉
First half, Bucks were competing hard, but there was no flow to their offense. Everything was a struggle.
Then it happened. Coming out of halftime, the ball started to move. Dame was diming and hitting his shots. There was flow. The offense was on fire. And, you know what? It was fueled by the effort and discipline on the defensive end. A lineup of Dame, Beas, Pat, Bobby and Giannis is not the five you would think of as a defensive lineup. And yet, that lineup was coughing up turnovers and contesting shots. Getting rebounds– something that has been a huge part of their struggles this season. A complete game was being played.
Going on a 20-2 run to end the third, Milwaukee held the Minnesota up-and-comers to 13 points in the quarter to take a 17 point lead after being down six at the half.
Then the fourth opened, and the Bucks slacked off again. Clearly, consistency is going to be key and the time to build consistency is now. But rather than folding, this time the Bucks would pull it together and hang on for a gritty dub; Giannis knocking down free throws, Dame coming up big down the stretch.
They kept their composure, Giannis said. Right on.
Tonight showed a truth. This is clear: This team can and could win against anyone any time, IF they play like they did in the 3rd Q and down the stretch in the 4th tonight. Keep it going, Bucks!
Giannis Antetokounmpo

2/8 from 3 pt shooting with 8/23 overall from Dame. Looks like Dame changed back from all star weekend to his regular game form today I see.
Bucks just showed what they can do let’s go on a run🔥
Bucks last 4 games…
– Wins over the Nuggets and Timberwolves
– Blowout loss to the Heat with no Jimmy Butler and loss to a Grizzlies team down 10 players
Can anybody figure this team out?
Let’s go Buckss
Damn time is ball hog again.
Damian Lillard
21 Pts, 9 Reb, 10 Ast, 1 Blk, 2 Stl

Dame and Giannas are finally starting to connect, and I am here for it. 🔥
When the Bucks play with that kinda energy, they typically win.

No Dame slander please …..The TWolves are F'ing good
I already knew they were gonna win this game. was confident af. bet my first bet ever. Milwaukee bucks 2024!!
I don’t know what was worse, Ants shooting and 3rd quarter performance or the refs in this game
Giannis has had an MVP season so far but the media won't talk about it, he's in pace of becoming the first player ever to average 30 on 60% FG
Malik Beasley
14 Pts, 2 Reb, 3 Ast, 3 Stl (4-9, 4-3PT)

my team needs giannis whistle
Doc Rivers will be thumping his chest at his haters after this. If only the Bucks can keep playing like this, though.
Dame struggled in the beginning, but had so many clutch shots towards the end. Giannis was great and was making his free throws during the end. It's pretty obvious that they miss middleton though, especially when their stars are on the bench.
I would of been balling 🏀 at the YMCA
😂😂😂😂😂 loss wolves
Giannis owned the bigs tonight.
The refs allowing Giannis to shoot 21 free throws should be investigated.
Dame is a clutch player compare to choker Edwards
Wow you breathe on Giannis and he gets the foul called. The third quarter by the Wolves was bad but the officiating was ridiculous.
Daaaaame Timeeeeee
Haters in the media were so quick to write off the Bucks and Rivers. Lets see how they backpedal tomorrow.
When the top comment ruib the out come
Cant man with his empty stats 😂
if i am bucks its concerning lillards buckets are all tough one's. he's not goign to be making those maybe only 2 games in a playoff series.i dont think bucks can get reallly far with lillard taking tough shots, they should pounding it into gannis inside out and even lopez who is a great inside player. no one can gaurd them, lillard should be second option
Dame time on Lopez
Wembanyama
Dame is Clutch
Giannis should be firmly in the MVP conversation. His team has the same success as the Nuggets, for whom most people have Nikola Jokic as the overwhelming MVP. But Giannis has better stats than him. There's probably 3 or 4 guys right now who should be in the thick of it. No overwhelming favorites.
The bucks gotta play like this against other top tier teams fr fr
Another near 4th qt Doc Rivers meltdown. Thankfully Dolla saved the day.
Had a good feeling the Bucks would win this game tonight after all the negative press they’ve been getting lately
Impressive win by Milwaukee. All they have to do now is to find good consistency and flow in their performances every game, especially Dame, and they will be good to go, and that will hopefully start in the City of Brotherly Love
