Giannis is the greatest Power Forward in the history of the NBA.

Jokic isn’t in the same stratosphere as Giannis this year. It’s not close.

Just a great, gritty win for the Bucks tonight. Sustained the run that Miami was destined to go on, never completely crumbled and without Giannis, did just enough on the boards as a team to steal a win and control their own destiny Tuesday to winning the group and hosting a Quarterfinal game at home

Everyone knew the Heat would go on a run. It’s basketball. Also 3rd Quarter Bucks. Get momentum back to start the 4th and you’re fine.

Incredible team effort in the 1st half for Milwaukee. Keep your composure. All calls are going against you and you’re dominating the game. Miami definitely has a run in them and that’s fine. Weather it and keep sharing the ball/getting Dame open looks and you’ll walk away with a win.

Dame going crazy!!!! He’s still that dude, but doesn’t have to be when he’s playing with the best player in the world.

Really impressive first quarter for the Bucks. Dame getting to be the primary playmaker and not deferring really puts pressure on Miami that they’re not used to against Milwaukee. Heat would much rather pack the paint (as they do so well when Giannis plays) than run and chase.

Really interested to see how the Bucks perform on the road tonight. Played good enough to steal a game in Miami during the IST last year.

Butler & Herro didn’t play. Bucks surrendered 124 points. Bam = 31

GA & Dame got 30+. KM played 23 min. All 5 starters scored in double figures. Bench = 21 pts

I have many thoughts about the Nat’l Medias NBA MVP talk, but it comes down this:

1) Narratives are like a game, players go on runs from media (4-6 weeks at a time) & momentum won’t last for early leaders through April

2) The hate Giannis/Bucks receive is real and the fans need to rally around it

With tonight’s performances, Damian Lillard and Giannis Antetokounmpo have now each reached the 30-point mark in four games this season.

That’s the most such games by any duo and the most games with multiple 30-point scorers for a team in the NBA this season.

Let’s Go 4-0 This Week!

“AJ Green from Lake Superior!”
Plus anything Splash Mountain
If we don't get a "Dame from the Apostle Islands" call on a deep 3-pointer, we will have failed. (From @themilwaukeebucks.bsky.social on Twitter)

Bucks injury report for tonight isn’t out yet, but Charlotte’s is and it’s LONG.

Miles Bridges, Mark Williams, Nick Richards, Tre Mann, DaJuan Jeffries all OUT with various injuries. Surprisingly they have also assigned Jared Rhoden, KJ Simpson & Nick Smith Jr to the G League.
November 23, 2024 at 5:32 PM
That said, 3 of 4 down and a chance a 4-0 record this week. Giannis better have already locked-in player of the week and there’s no denying he’s Eastern Conference Player of the Month.
November 23, 2024 at 5:51 PM
The chemistry is really starting to build this week. At first it was a possession or two per quarter and now Giannis and Dame are really starting to get in sync consistently. Once they really start learning each other’s movements and tendencies, it’s scary hours for the NBA.

Cavs lose and Bucks find themselves only 9.5 back of the 1 seed.

Last night, @ginamizell.bsky.social izell.bsky.social reported 76ers coach Nick Nurse took more than an hour to come to his postgame press conference after the loss.

Nurse then said Philly had a team meeting.

Embiid's take on the meeting when asked by reporters: "Oh we had a meeting? Don't know."

Cherrypicked stat alert:

There have been 7 games in NBA history where a player:
Hit 5 or more threes, had 4 or more blocks and had 3 or more steals

Brook Lopez has 3 of those 7 games

Since November 1st the #Bucks defense has been 6th best in the NBA (110.6) and 5th best in the half court (93.7)

Impressive defensive effort all night, especially on the perimeter. 1 win in the books. 3 to go this week.
November 19, 2024 at 3:41 AM
AJ Green is an elite defender. His stickiness is incredible tonight. Chest in front of everyone he defends.
November 19, 2024 at 2:33 AM
First of four home games this week. Looking for win number 5 on the season. Let’s Go Bucks!
November 18, 2024 at 11:34 PM
Bulls did Bucks no favors by laying down vs Rockets tonight. Houston will be relatively rested at Fiserv tomorrow.

Giannis and Dame probable.

Rollins and Middleton out.
