jayu70 Posted October 29, 2022 Author Share Posted October 29, 2022 This should be De'Andre Hunter's game. He'll be matched up vs Jrue or Grayson Allen and should take advantage. He's gotta stop fouling 3pt shooters and rebound. We've got to do a better job of boxing out, their guards and wings killed us with rebounds during the preseason games. iIf the preseason holds to form, Clint will start off defending Giannis. How Trae handles the defensive pressure from Carter - giving up the ball early on traps etc and being the Maestro will be big. Portis has given us problems - How do we contain him. JJ and OO has to match his intensity and physicalilty. Will OO get to defend Giannis? Atlantafan21 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DirtybyrdGA Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 A tie for first in the east on the line, even if November is days away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Banana Bandit Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 I just got the bally sports app for last night's game and I'm blown away at how good it is on computer. I honestly think I'm going to keep it. It's worth checking out if you haven't. It's everything you'd hope sports streaming should be.

DirtybyrdGA Posted October 30, 2022 Share Posted October 30, 2022 Lopez is owning. At least it's not Giannis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Atlantafan21 Posted October 30, 2022 Share Posted October 30, 2022 Not sure if Trae is tired or what but some bad passing and ugly shots even with good looks. Everyone with some lazy passing and ball handling in that second quarter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Expert Poster Posted October 30, 2022 Share Posted October 30, 2022 Getting outplayed but still in it. Going to need to play more cohesively on both ends of the floor. 2smooth4u 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I heard from the radio station that the Bucks has favorable home stretch the beginning of this season. Must be nice not having to travel early.

RING OF HONOR Posted October 30, 2022 Share Posted October 30, 2022 Capella should be ashamed... letting Lopez go off.... Murray gonna go off second half Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Expert Poster Posted October 30, 2022 Share Posted October 30, 2022 The Bucks are playing Trae pretty much the same way they did for most of that playoff series and in the meetings since. They're playing a lot of drop and taking away the PnR. They want to make Trae force the action instead of gambling and giving him anything to exploit. I think it's an implicit indictment on Nate's inability as a coach to design an effective counter outside of Trae's individual brilliance. blkbigdog35 and 2smooth4u 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Murray gonna go off second half I wouldn't really pin it on Capela. In most cases, it's an issue of poor/late defensive rotations by other guys. You don't really want Capela guarding guys 30 feet from the basket. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expert Poster Posted October 30, 2022 Share Posted October 30, 2022 We've actually played Giannis pretty well, but Lopez and Jrue going off on the same night is tough to contend with. Atlantafan21 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expert Poster Posted October 30, 2022 Share Posted October 30, 2022 Exciting 4th quarter. Need a good possession here. Don't mind Trae shooting a three if that's what ends up being available, but don't force anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Expert Poster Posted October 30, 2022 Share Posted October 30, 2022 Having Murray as a secondary playmaker in these late game situations is such a luxury. Could be really awesome when you add Bogi to the mix. jayu70, 2smooth4u and Atlantafan21 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
