Milwaukee Bucks vs Dallas Mavericks Full Highlights 2nd Qtr | Feb 3 | 2024 NBA Regular Season

64% three-point shooting 64% actually sounds like they’re not shooting it well compared to how they started the first quarter shooting from three it’s really come down from the seven 80% playing together on offense it’s as simple as that play together and we’ll play much harder and we’ll certainly be

Able to get some stops on defense as long as their offense is there Lisa and there’s uh playing together great point there coming out of that timeout campaign finding a cutting back door Pat cson for two yeah that’s a similar message from what we heard as Luca gets another Runner to

Fall Luca now with 17 points the playe together message is is something that Melanie reported again in that Portland game from the Huddle doc river is talking about and it was her report to start this game Doc River’s talking about trying I know you guys know that

But I’ve got to say it so that when you don’t I can yell at you I can be clear that that is going to be what makes us great the Dage looks it off to Grant Williams who can’t knock down the three doc rers has talked about on

Offense there’s going to be some tweaks here too Chris Middleton that’s nice more of that please Chris Middleton to jannis for the alley and the points in the paint you’re certainly going to expect to see Milwaukee dominate that Giannis try to get free and it’s going

To it’s going to happen like that for Chris other point guards finding him when he’s open he’s got to get it Yannis has opened up 10 points in 11 minutes of play Bobby trying to tip it to himself into the hands of campaign the outlet pass to Chris Middleton reverse leaves it short

And Luka trying to pull over camper debating right what his weight is and and it doesn’t like he can just he’s remarkable he can hit all the shots I’m not sure it matters if he’s 230 or 250 the way he shoots that ball right now and really from every going

The same speed that he was in warm-ups and it’s just it’s really unexplainable that he’s able to play at that pace Chris with the pocket pass to Janis forced to give it up to cam 5 Seconds to shoot Yannis takes a peek at the shot clock decides to pull the trigger from

Straight away and knocks it down for three got to like that nice Rhythm took his time had his eyes up on the shot clock knew just what he had to do when he gets one of those two of those to go certainly makes the defense respect him

More shooting 60% from the field Giannis has 13 points and the Bucks force a turnover here for the map so an opportunity here for Milwaukee Giannis trying to St on the Baseline counting it out making sure he’s obeying the rules coming from a guy who’s been fine more

Than pretty much anybody in NBA history he’s just making sure Yiannis is abiding by the 10sec r helping him out Luka looks it off there’s an open look for Josh Green who can’t knock it down Cub been more of a fan now these days it seems like right with his new

Role Chris Middleton from mid-range of course that didn’t stop him as the owner either no it did not he’s always vocal always involved and now he’s just a much richer fan he’s got a roll in basketball operations as well jayen Hardy for three oh0 for two from three-point

Territory the only one really who has played except for Grant Williams who hasn’t made a three-pointer on the MAV side and jannis finger roll finished jiannis has spent the off so they got A plus 18 from three and well now it’s plus 21 Tim Hardway Jr with another three

Let’s check in with Melanie Ricks well coach doc says it’s all about getting stops he said before this last time it’s the first time all game we’ve gotten several stops in a row we can’t run if we don’t get stops so let’s keep getting them and we’ll be sure to score on the

Other side makes they’re already at 10 well on that pace here in this game tonight and you just have to pray for the law of averages at this point that they slow down that they calm down but uhoh right away Junior steps in the way of the passing Lane and does

That yeah the turnovers certainly are not going to help the team is making threes you realize think just starting to stack against you and I had said it earlier in the broadcast but I mean it you cannot make enough two-pointers or go trips to the free throw line to catch

Up on a team that’s obviously scoring like Tim Hardway just did and especially making voling three-pointers well shorted on that three-point attempt it’s almost as valuable as a three-point shot Tim Hardway Jr was seven points away from 10,000 in his career coming into tonight he’s well surpass that with 13

And it’s another slam a big one from Josh Green [Applause] couple players and double figures for the Mavs Hardway I mentioned with 13 points LC with 19 he’s the game high scorer working around to Malik Beasley he decides to go off the bouns Dame again working it around to PC giving him

Another chance and it out that’s great possession and you can tell there’s some miscommunication like doc said look this is a new system there’s some things that are being added but that’s the kind of possession to get a good shot just got to knock it down hard away Junior has

Been Lights Out From the Bench him alone he’s got 13 points to the Bucks bench has got a total of four points and another turnover this has been a problem there’s been turnover stretches in the last two Road games on this trip Dage flips it 48 minutes of

Basketball sometimes you go okay it’s coach speak I’ve heard that before but obviously that’s more what they’re saying we just can’t have lapses that really cost us hard away misses that one because look you have a five six seven minute stretch that later you look and go that side of the game

That’s why you’re talking about 48 minutes you just can’t have let downs and double team coming on the catch here for Yannis as Bobby tries to split the double team and he does successfully the turnaround Falls for Bobby for his first points Bobby taking some bumps in there

CA coming up holding his chin or his nose and pretty much why cba’s always hurt I think it’s been a toe injury as of late but he’s got his nose and everything always in the mix that nasal fracture actually on Wednesday it was it was debating if he would be playing to

Protect that Nel fracture you know some guys it double figures Dane pulls up knocks it down need more of those eight points for Damen Lillard who hasn’t missed a shot but has only taken three shots here in the first half I like it I think it’s just high IQ shot right there

Understanding look AJ just made one go ahead and get one up good defense down here Derek thinking obviously understanding what guys do being with him at practice and having to watch film good d right there by Bobby the bun fors a turnover they’re looking for AJ who takes it inside looks

It off to Chris Middleton from the [Applause] corner Doc Rivers has said one of these younger guys whether it’s Andre Jackson Jr who’s not available here tonight whether it’s Maron boan AJ Green one of those guys that’s got to perform Derek Jones Jor missed the dunk

Third last game so fine he’s second now for most minutes played but you can imagine why it’s so hard to have him off the court especially if you’re going to Kyrie Irving out there the bucks on a 10 to two run as Luca pulls the trigger you

Mentioned that the minutes per game you know the last three games he played 44 minutes 46 minutes 43 minutes coming into tonight as AJ Green commits corruption on the foul call Dame second personal Chris Middleton chasing over the screen on Luca between the legs now Giannis is on him and he goes straight

Line drive on the right side LCA donic has 21 points in the first half yeah just watching the different matchups putting campaign on him at times Chris Middleton’s guarding Luca Yannis was out there on that one he did a good job up on the ball but then you see as soon as

Luka gets him on his hip 67 230 you can put a little bump on jannis too and still finish D with the bump 43 points in that fourth quarter to win that game and so we’ll see how this game goes but obviously when you got that guy making

Shots like that and pretty much everything else it makes it tough well the last three games Luca is averaging about 49 points and with his 23 points here right now I would say he’s on that pace once again jannis trying to muscle his way in and he gets

It with the jump hook and jannis trying to do all he can he’s got 18 of the 45 here for the Milwaukie bucks to keep putting pressure on him you know what right through his legs Point triple double in those five games and for two games averaged a 50 point triple double

He did not win Western coner player of the week some people out there were saying there’s some Luca haters I mean to that point we talk about our guy Yannis you know not in as much conversation as Luca from Deep drills it right on Q 26 points you know these are

Two guys that we see on the floor Giannis and Luca that probably both of them should generate a little bit more MVP discussion than what they are it’s B it really is I think when you nice move right there by Dame when you see what

These guys do on a nightly basis not a we had a big game or it was a big performance or a big stretch you’re talking about body of work obviously Luca as we’re witnessing absolutely Unstoppable and this game is an offensive game and so that’s always

Going to be be the way that mvp leans and I think you’re right about jannis too you look at his body of work 60% from the field 30 points per game no one in the NBA has had those numbers if he can keep them up not in the MVP convers

So well might require surgery so you would have to think that you know he obviously won’t get the 65 game minimum as Giannis gets the the bounce there on that shot so that kind of eliminates maybe a favorite for the MVP conversation yes you said with the new

Rules with 65 I mean it’s an absolute Game Changer as far as how often you got to play and sometimes guys are hurt and it’s not their fault but it just changes who categorically can even be in that [Applause] conversation jic continuing to put up Nia yic type season numbers Jil

Alexander is up there with the kind of year that OKC is having Malik Beasley drills it from deep and be has his second three-pointer six points in the half I really like what Doc is doing with the rotations right now leaving AJ out there for extended minutes it’s not

Hurting the team the Bucks are playing well with them out there so let the shooter try to heat up other guys are making them as well because of that spacing gotten a couple of Misses just got to get the defensive rebound now Luca generates possibly a second chance opportunity with Giannis defending

Up jannis with that length Uka jannis wins that battle defensively L thought he got fouled here going Point deficit Janis trying to get it to single digits here’s AJ Green he’s got a look at it AJ automatic from the corner and the lead is cut to
