Bucks IGT - Opening week

[adambr2]

Korver and Matthews look like fantastic additions already.

 

Two four point plays in the 2nd quarter! Nice halftime lead against the Heat.

 

If I have a complaint about this team, and it's a minor one, it'd be nice to start seeing better FT success.

[homer]

I could watch Korver shoot all day.

[adambr2]

Pretty ugly ball here early in the 4th. Bad turnover by Brook.

[adambr2]

Heat are out-hustling the Bucks at an alarming level. You don't blow a 21 point lead at Fiserv to the shorthanded Miami Heat.

[adambr2]

Giannis' jumper does not look any better than last season.

[adambr2]

Sweet pass Mids.

[adambr2]

Wow. Gotta win this now.

[adambr2]

The Middleton contract feels like one that will be excruciating long.

[young guns]

We are falling apart here in ot.

[adambr2]

One of the most pathetic home openers you'll ever see. Got a gift to even get OT and still couldn't do anything with it. Blowing a 21 point second half lead at home to a perennial 8 seed type team is an embarrassing way to start home play.

[owbc]

The Bucks really didn't want to win that game.

[HarveysWBs]

In light of the controversy surrounding Giannis’ long-term status in Milwaukee, someone should make a “Will-he-stay-or-will-he-go?” meter that can be updated after every game. Solidly in the “stay” zone after the big comeback in Houston, wiggling towards “go” after an uninspired home showing vs the Heat. It would be really useful!

The Middleton contract feels like one that will be excruciating long.

Ding ding ding!!!

 

Add Bledsoe's too. Two bad contracts + no championship = Goodbye Giannis.

And Brogdon has looked good his first two games with the Pacers. Just a small hindsight fyi.

[PinaMadness]

The Bucks are going to regret not making Brogdon a priority.

[adambr2]

Pretty disappointed so far with the look of this team. Two large second half leads blown in 4 games.

This happened last year also. Still an issue this year for whatever reason they haven't figured out how to put teams away when they have a big lead early.

Didn't they start like 7-0 last year?

 

Anyway, I hope it's just a blip on the radar and not a sign of things to come. Having a disappointing 50 win, 3-4 seed type team at this point in time could have huge consequences.

Yes they started 7-0 last year but they had stretches where they should have won games where they had big leads going into the half and then all of a sudden in the 3rd they would blow the lead and would be fighting the other team from making a comeback or trying to mount a comeback themselves. It is like this team gets complaisant and just stop stepping on the opponents throats.

 

I am starting to believe Bledsoe is a bad fit on this team and that contract is going to be a headache.

[homer]

Needed that one.

[sveumrules]

Pretty disappointed so far with the look of this team. Two large second half leads blown in 4 games.

 

Also, one large second half defecit overcome, on the road, against a likely WC playoff team.

 

So far they've won 2 games they should have won, lost 2 games they should have won & won 1 game they should have lost.

 

They could be 5-0, should be 4-1 & actually are 3-2.

 

After 5 games I still see high 50 wins & the 1/2 seed in our future.

 

Toronto on the back to back should be fun.

[young guns]

Bucks again trying to hang on after a big lead.

[DuWayne Steurer]

Solid win over a tough team. They could have folded in the fourth and instead they pulled away in the last few minutes. NBA basketball has ebbs and flows and they rolled with it tonight and won the game. They're still finding their way with some new pieces. They're gonna be fine.

[adambr2]

Yeah solid win tonight. I was worried when Bledsoe and Middleton turned it over 4 times in about 90 seconds in the 4th but they came together nicely after that.
