Bring Back Zach Lowe ๐
we want Zach Lowe
I still remember when they were saying this duo was the next Kobe and Shaq !!! ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐๐
Really not trying to hate on Victor Oladipo but why does he sound so disinterested?
Yโall wonโt us to fail so bad FEAR THE DEERโผ๏ธ we ainโt doing too much talking yโall gone see how we coming
SO TIRED OF HEARING ABOUT KHRIS MIDDLETON! THESE FUKN MEDIA CLOWNS BEEN MENTIONING HIM FOR THE PAST 4 YEARS AND HE HAS MATTERED AT ALL… STOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOPPPPPPPPPP.
They will be great, they might not start well but from the 20th game to the playoffs, it's going to be prime bucks.
malika why is your husband such a dweeb whitey
EPSN promotes hatred and division. I have seen them showing Giannis missing shots even though he actually played amazing. They have nothing to say about Damian Lillard who shot 2/7. This is disgusting. The company promotes hatred and I don't respect the person who runs ESPN. They are not professional, very biased and actually lie. Yes, lie. We only watch y'all bc we HAVE TO?๐ค๐ค. We really have no choice. The truth is Damian Lillard has been playing like trash ever since he got to the Bucks. Giannis averaged 18 shot attempts last season and Lame Time averaged 17 shots. What do you want Giannis to do? Change his accent to sound exactly like yours, Kendrick Perkins? Bc that seems to be the issue with y'all. He ain't HBCU.
They might be a bad fit
Giannis is the only superstar who gets disrespected. Damian Lillard is a complete fraud and the y'all can't say that so y'all have to blame Giannis bc y'all hate him so much. 7 shot attempts bc he's been shooting bricks ever since he got to Milwaukee. I have never seen y'all saying Lebron has to sacrifice for AD, Luka to Kyrie, Jokic for Jamal Murray, Steph for Klay, Embiid for Maxey. It's always Giannis fault that Dame shoots bricks. He's a complete fraud.
Bucks could win a lot if they let dame run the offense and stop having Giannis dribble up the court n iso and just do more PNR like on his national team
Zach lowe is annoying
Victor oladipo is great for TV , great dude I saw him in Vegas and he embraced his fans
Greek Over Lebron๐ฏ๐คง Dude won a title with a peewee sqaud๐
Detroit Pistons 2025 NBA Champions ๐๐
Why are they acting like khris hasnโt avg 25ppg on 40% from 3 in 2 straight playoffs. ESPN will always hate on the bucks
dame got to milwaukee a couple years too old thats my take on them
Giiannniiss!! Los CamPayne, PatBev
Giannis bas 2 Lopez BRos. Jae CRowder!!! Beasly shooting with Dame. 2 helprrs. Middleton and Portis. Crazy. Interesting
Giannis.
Was Like Wemby and CP3 running.
Need a certain runner
Huge PRoBLem. Yeah Hs GReek.
Americans and PLans on fieldings. He may not recognize very fast enough. Adebayo was trying Bully around Greek.
I feel like Dame will be way better with the bucks this season. He seems more focused
What more do you want Giannis to do Perk???!?? Be more of a screen setter so that Dame can brick more shots.???!
did they even watch the game Dame sprained his ankle so he didn't get really aggressive
Perk calling in from his bathtub? Victor has charisma but looked a bit overdressed.
You can literally hear Malika's smug smile. I really want to like her, she's intelligent and articulate etc, but they really just fired all the people that know basketball well and kept the prettiest girl and Perk, who is sometimes funny but is mostly just a, "You gotta put the ball in the hoop," kind of analyst who is quite literally the opposite of articulate. This is like Disney Star Wars vibes.
They might be reading a lil too much into the preseason
Dame decided to switch teams when age caught up to him
worst panel lineup of all time
Dame is 34 years old now. And he's tiny. I love m, but thinking he's going to get better at this stage…I don't know.
Dame is best suited to be a star of a losing team. Heโll be a hero but theyโll never win. Doc is not the coach to figure this out. Trade coming very soon.
Like they did last year, what changed ?
CAP ๐งข Dame gotta be more efficient and learn how to move without the ball. 2-7 FG percentage is on him, not Giannis
They have gotten rid of max and Zach Lowe and kept andrews and perk make it make sense ๐ญ I miss good journalism
Patrick Beverley was a better fit with Giannis than Dame ๐ญ
Should have kept Jrue.
Amateur hour with perk.. his mic isnโt even on
Bucks are at most a top 5 to playin team with two of the 10 most peak performance players in today. And a good roster. but doc Rivers is the only weak link sadly and i love doc as a person. But as a philly fan at age 31 ive seen alot the last 20 plus years and doc is one i wish now wasnt involved ๐ . So goodluck bucks.
Sometimes 2 players just canโt mix well enough to win. They are the type of team that needs 1 more piece to be truly effective if you want those guys to be at their scariest
Why does it sound like perk is sitting on the toilet
They don't need to improve, they just need to stay healthy.
The Bucks were 44-21 when on the floor together last year.
I think they are really underrated
They are definitely going to make some noise out in the East for sure!!!!
This is a non story the reason Dame wasnโt in his bag fr was two fold . Giannis was playing well and Bobby Portis was cooking there wasnโt a need for a Dame to do a lot . He also just missed some open looks they make stories out of everything lol
the reality is they ran sets for dame in game 1 and they ran sets for giannis in game two.
dame didn't get points cause they didn't run sets to get him looks.
they did some two man game but mostly for giannis.
preseason is warmup and practice. this isn't actual game plans. it's trying things out and seeing what may or may not work
The bucks should trade for lauri and let Giannis play center ๐ซ
