Hi! Right on time. Send me to sleep please justin. Go bango
Bucks looked really locked in.
A good sign. Everyone playing with intensity. Brooke showed improvement on D. PC played with hustle, Portis played with finesse, and AJ (Roadrunner) looked more confident getting to the hole.
Dame's shot looked much better than last year. And assists seem to be going up, with the ball moving around well and more guys (like Trent) taking it to the hole.
Overall defense was better.
Dame got another deflection and guys were even chasing down loose balls out of bounds. Awesome to see in preseason play. Go Bucks!
GTJ is phenomenal for us, AJ looks like he can help us, we got guys who can get physical and not get pushed around like Beasely did last year
BUCKS look better and better 👍 They'll ready 💯% for the opening night 🔥🔥🔥💞🔥🔥
Our starters didn't look good against the Bulls bench. They was missing Lavine, White, Vuc, Ball, Williams and Auyo Dumo
AJ Johnson is getting to the rim easily he just has to finish the play. I’m still feeling good about my AJ Johnson contributing take
How the starters struggle with a bunch of randoms?
The offense looks clunky because Gianni’s forces shots 1 vs. 3 or 1 vs. 4 every other play while guys stand wide open around the perimeter. Even if he scores it just looks clunky compared to other teams who just shoot open shots all day because they kick it out consistently.
I said it all last season and I’ll keep saying it. Giannis still plays like he doesn’t have any help and forces way too much instead of using his gravity to pick the defense apart with his passing. Just watch the ball movement and player movement the moment he leaves the court.
