Bucks 2020-2021 season thread

[OldSchoolSnapper]

Every time they seem poised to have a run, some non Giannis player hits a big shot which has been great to see.

[DuWayne Steurer]

I mean, they're not necessarily wrong. Lopez is a strong offensive post player and the Nets don't have anyone to neutralize him at all. On top of that, they're rolling Mike James onto him, and Lopez just hangs out near the 3P line, waiting for a pop and shoot opportunity. The first 4 games of this series have proven that if anything, points in the paint are pretty much there for the taking against BKN, and we're not adjusting to it.

Jrue needs to get back to scoring in the paint too. There's really no need to adjust, they knew before game 1 the paint was open for business.

Here comes the run...

[DuWayne Steurer]

Gut check time right now

[OldSchoolSnapper]

Good grief Giannis

[DuWayne Steurer]

Yikes, I don't like him taking that but ok.

[OldSchoolSnapper]

What happened to our ball movement?

[MrTPlush]

Griffin with a failed flop for once.

[Mr Southpaw]

The NY/LA refereeing is coming out now.

[FVBrewerFan]

At what point in the 4th do you put Giannis on Durant?

[DuWayne Steurer]

The offense should be "whoever Harden is guarding"

[OldSchoolSnapper]

This isn't going well.

[Mr Southpaw]

Lopez should be making layups, if not put Portis in the game.

[nate82]

At what point in the 4th do you put Giannis on Durant?

When you want Giannis to foul out.

[DuWayne Steurer]

At what point in the 4th do you put Giannis on Durant?

 

Given the amount of "contact" it takes Durant to draw a foul, never.

[DuWayne Steurer]

So we're gonna tighten up, not pass the ball, and instead take contested jumpers again. Sigh....

[adambr2]

No answer for Durant or Green tonight.

[young guns]

I was looking forward to the solo Durant match up for the storyline. It was Durant’s chance to prove himself as the guy in the NBA.

Well, despite harden being on the floor, this has been the second half.

Yup, pretty much a one superstar on each side. Durant is putting the team on his back…Giannis, while not playing bad by any means, isn’t not doing the same.

[OldSchoolSnapper]

This would be unbelievable if it weren't so predictable.

[DuWayne Steurer]

Just gonna take crappy contested shots now. That's game over if that's the case.

[adambr2]

Bucks absolutely crumbling down the stretch.

[SeaBass]

I see the Bucks are back to playing their "greatest" hits.
