So unbelievable they lost! – ESPN react to Bucks loss to Kings 129-94 despite Giannis shines 30 Pts

94 Victory welcome to Bucks live presented by frer and the Medical College of Wisconsin kashan and Steve Novak late night and uh this one did not turn out to be in the Buck’s favor whatsoever it was right out of the it’s funny cuz the other night Steve

The Bucks and the uh Clippers had 28 lead changes tonight there were no lead changes ironic fortunate because that Clippers game it was back and forth and Milwaukee I think really showed late in the game they’ve got the guys that can step up it was Giannis facilitating it

Was Dame making those shots and well we never quite got to that tonight because it was the Sacramento Kings right out of the gate coming out scoring the first few buckets and it was riging three-pointers it seemed like from the start and so obviously that defensive remember this was the fourth game the

Last game of a West Coast Road Trip where the team has been on the road for a long time and not to make excuses but this Sacramento Kings team they shot lights out and it was the difference in this game and so unfortunately for Milwaukee falling in this one hoping to

Even out make it two and two on this West Coast road trip now making it just one and three and so they get to come home to the Comforts of firer forum after this and hopefully get things a little bit right against Philly but for tonight it was not such a great game

Yeah it seemed like uh from the get-go you could tell the Kings just seemed like they had a score to settle against Milwaukee and give them credit they came out and a mission accomplished for them and they did it with the three-point shot in the first quarter to build their

Big league that’s our big money moment here tonight Steve they made was going so bonus was facilitating and so it really was an impressive allaround performance from this Sacramento Kings team that the Bucks they did see this team not that long ago and they did that as well but looking at those three-point

Numbers Craig this was the differentiator there are Knights when teams make threes and it matters there are nights when you miss and when you go about 3940 attempts wise the same and I think as you watch this game you really did see the Bucks got a lot of good

Looks there were a lot of guys you saw Beverly get good looks Pat conon Beasley a lot of guys getting good C it’s not an excuse it’s just one of those nights when you play 82 games in a season I do think there’s going to be nights where

Unfortunately when you’re not going the other team you’re playing is and this was one of those nights well the three-pointers for the bucks the seven they made tied a season low percent uh that was it as far as three-pointers go as far as accuracy for Milwaukee so can

Only go up from here when the Sixers come to town on Thursday you know that all right Malik monk we featured him in our bucks live pregame show a tremendous player off the bench in the NBA and uh for the Sacramento Kings C had a a mission 25 points five rebounds five

Assists and he was PL playing like a feisty guy out there wanting to get his shots he was getting some technical fouls he was scrapping like you said Craig he was add a little bit of Defense out there as well and so you got to credit Mike Brown you got to credit this

Sacramento Kings Group for like you said responding to an overtime loss here January 14th against Milwaukee when Dame Lillard had a little Dame time hit a big time shot to win the game when Sacramento thought they had won that game and so I do feel like there was a

Little different energy in this one and obviously Malik monk having the night that he did at 20 five five and five Off the Bench that’s really hard to counter the Bucks didn’t tonight and there was no question he was a big reason they ran away with this one and there were like

You said no lead changes and no ties they went after to just 10 points here and you could tell he was frustrated from the get-go Giannis was frustrated as well but I tell you what he there was a little different energy in this one and obviously Malik monk

Heaven the night that he did at 25 five and five Off the Bench that’s really hard to the Bucks didn’t tonight and there was no question he was the big reason they ran away with this one and there were like you said no lead changes

And no ties they went after to just 10 points here and you could tell he was frustrated from the get-go Giannis so Buck looking for some bigger things outside the Eric as far as three go uh next time now janisan Copo LED Milwaukee and scoring here in this one 30 points

13 rebounds as well 22 of those coming in the first half with the Bucks Trail 7556 at the break and it was just uh a tough comeback it was just a big hole tonight for Milwaukee looking for some bigger things outside the Eric as far as three go uh

Next time now janisan Copo LED Milwaukee in scoring here in this one 30 points 13 rebounds as well 22 of those coming in the first half where the Bucks trailed 7556 at the break and it was just uh a tough comeback back it was just a big

Hole tonight for Milwaukee be honest we know that you know it was and I think he was the guy that gave this team what is it to dunk on guys is it to rebound he was out there flying around doing everything he possibly could and so another strong night from him but I

Do think as you watched Giannis throughout the night that fire kind of started to feel like a little bit of a helplessness from him where he was thinking all right these shot did a heck of a job you got to give them credit for running their offense sabonis the guy in

The middle I think facilitating making sure everybody was involved for them and so as much as Giannis was doing it just was not the Milwaukee Bucks night a frustrating 30 points for jannis back here from down low 17.9% from three-point land and that turned out to be a big difference SE Fox

Led the way with 29 Giannis had 30 for Milwaukee here’s Doc Rivers on the loss it’s going to say they shot 53% but and we listen Malik had some wide open shots over the pat Conor and but that’s all foods go the ball didn’t move tonight we took difficult shots um Sacramento

Overhal they have to they’re they’re they uh and we didn’t take advantage of it at all uh the few times we did it we did get good shots but I thought the way we played uh offensively I thought we chase points all night everybody first

Play of the game I think uh player pump Fay got in the paint we told him that run at you kick it out we take contest the TW so we deserved it tonight um you know my fault I didn’t get them prepared the way they should mentally I thought

Um I shoot around just you know we guys talking about uh planes and leaving um we as a staff we talked about it at the shoo around I was like if our focus is not better than this morning it’s going to be a long day and it was a long day

So that’s on us um what did you see them do with with Dame or try to do with Dame in terms of either making it that much more difficult ult on him over the half court and maybe preventing some of it just pressured him a lot him tries to do that

But they were very successful at it tonight give Ellis credit I thought he did a great job on day you talk about those first two quarters of King scored 38 in the first and then 37 then that kind of you know no I still thought it

Was due to our offense you know they they didn’t have to take the ball out all game I mean they were running down our throat out for misses you know Vantage every time down the floor we just didn’t have a very smart game uh today

Uh I’m not going to overplay it it’s one game but we had two this trip could have easily been two and two um but it’s not it it is what it is and we have to deal with that uh after that loss to the Warriors Jay

Talked a little bit about how you guys didn’t find the pace of the game until the second quarter felt like that happened again tonight I didn’t think we ever found it I thought we had the one stretch where we cut it to six I think

Uh and then in the third this trip could have easily been two and two uh um but it’s not it is what it is and we have to deal with that uh after that loss to the Warriors Jay had talked a little bit about how you guys didn’t find the pace

Of the game until the second quarter felt like that happened again tonight I didn’t think we ever found it I thought we had the one stretch where we cut it to six I think uh and then in the third bad shots so I didn’t think we learned

Our lesson tonight we just kept uh having self-inflicted W wounds so uh you’ve talked about how this is an older team it’s not a quick team uses its length yeah in games like this do you feel like this is can be a problem playoff time with teams that I worry

About it yeah I think um that’s what we’re going to have to move the ball we have struggled against all year you know Indiana Pacers being that as an example and so we have to figure out the right formula uh to do that we will uh but we don’t have it right

Now you alluded to that but just one and three on this road trip you have been feeling like you guys were making steps in the right direction how do you sum up I still do I mean you know again as I said when we won whatever in a row I

Said I’m not judging us by that uh let other people I’m not um um I said then we wern’t ready yet and we’re still not but we will be uh you mentioned teams are going to try this on dayot they have in the past some nights you’ve been more

Successful you weren’t tonight what do you find is successful when teams do pressure him if they’re going to pressure him and and trap him um if we space the floor move the ball we work on the drill every day uh we should be able to pick it apart think about it if

They’re trapping Dame that’s Giannis in the middle of the floor uh we didn’t take advantage of that tonight we we really just didn’t move the ball tonight um and it’s that simple uh you mentioned not being able to take advantage of your size that’s something you’ve kind of

Struggled with since you’ve taken over not being able to find Brooke down there what are you seeing as the problem with that we we got to throw him the ball he’s got to go down there more too but that’s on us we got to get Brooke down

There if they want to put a guard on about the uh the ball handling tonight it seemed like you gave up a few of them in the steals yeah we just we’re sloppy I mean we really were um it’s a sloppy night so there’s not much you can do

  1. Another garbage game from lilard, nothing that we don't expect. Lilard can't be a starter anymore, maybe he could be a starter on pistons
