  1. Pat needs to learn to pump fake. dude’s fly by him all the time because they’re always running to get to him

  2. Realy looking for forward to somewhere around the game20 point of the season, to maliciously mock all those "analysts" who had the Bucks like 10th in their power rankings entering the season, when they gonna flip flop their "analysis" and post all these articles about how much better the Bucks look this year that they have a stable coaching stuff, a proper offseason preparation for everyone and a better structured roster (no kidding, i wonder why, great analysis guys). And when i say "flip flop" i mean "flip flop AGAIN" cause last year they had set the bar to "Finals or bust" on a team that had to fundamentaly change their style of play to incorporate a new superstar with poor offseason prep, under a new and rookie head coach, whereas this year it's " they're washed / this window has closed" etc, based on completely random factors (Giannis missing all playoff games).
    PS: Just kind of wondering, if Tatum or Brown missed all playoff games, how would the "unstopable" Celtics fair in the postseason? Yes,im refering to the same "unstopable Celtics who have no rival in the East" that benched their entire starting five at halftime cause they were getting clowned by the "washed and overaged" Bucks.

  3. Two things that stood out to me. I was surprised how fluid the offensive was and (SLOB) sideline out of bounds plays. We scored a ton of those.

  4. It was just so immediately evident that the offense is more dialed in, some possessions 3, 4, 5 actions – great to watch and Dame just looks more like Dame. Hope this all continues!

  5. The brook and dame connection is utmost importance. Probably more important than a Giannis-dame pick and roll. This action allows giannis to be that dangerous roaming presence outside of dame coming iff the brook screen and shooting, brook rolling, popping, the possibilities are endless.

  6. MO bamba to the Bucks.. for Pat and Marjon and 2picks then we can go get Thanasis…Go Bucks 💯 Stephen A Sucks 😂😂😂

  7. Camille, i love what you've done . Im so excited and happy that you've continued to progress and succeed in all you do. So much love to you .🎉🎉🎉

  8. Lights out Lopez! Hopefully saying that consistently this year, everyone played well good win for coaching staff as well.

  9. Camille, I wanna appreciate you for being professional. Maybe you hate Giannis behind the scene, but from what I have seen you have been very professional and humane.

    I have seen this very channel hate on Giannis and i am dude who remembers things yrs back. Yes, i don't. I think the Bucks 100% take Giannis for granted. Giannis is very thankful that the Bucks gave him a chance and that's why he wants to stay in Milwaukee but i dont think the Bucks appreciated what Giannis has done.

    Giannis needs to leave the Bucks. I was in a situation where I thought I needed some ppl but I was brave enough to get out and be my own person. Guess what? Im so, so glad that I made that decision. My life is way better. I am way happier.

    Giannis is just DUMB is he doesn't play for at least one more team. Go out and explore. Go put on a different jersey, different weather. Go make more fan base. Go win a championship for another city.

    There's so many other opportunities out there. If I were Giannis' mentor i don't think these ESPN hatred would be going on coz i would've told Giannis to literally hired 5 people just to promote Giannis bc the Bucks don't wanna do it.

    Anyone who hates Giannis can go to hell. Go to hell.

  10. Oh we're back lol. Wonder how Frank's grumpy ass is gonna hate on Bobby this season. Peep how he talks about Pat
