    Lets hope GG, Rivers, Houston continue to contribute! Would like to see some Gary Clark with the second unit, try to match up with Malcom

    Good news is Bucks is not offensive rebounding power house and they don't defend 3 that well.

    I actually think a good number of women are attracted to PJ. Don’t underestimate the thiccness bro.

    The Paul Pierce/ Billups combo is so much better than the TNT crew. Chauncey is super insightful.

    The Bucks length could give us fits. I'm not really sure who's going to slow down Giannis. Going to be a tough one.

    We're probably going to lose this game. And maybe even badly. This is a game where Houston absolutely needs Chris Paul and Eric Gordon playing. With both out I think we will get outplayed.

    The Bucks are actually a good team unlike the Nuggets. Not only that, but they take almost as much 3s as us. The know their math. And unlike us and the Warriors, the Bucks actually are playing good defense this season.

    Milwaukee has the defense of the Thunder, and they have the offense of the Warriors. And they're hungry. Unless the Rockets shoot lights out this game then it will be extremely tough.

    I'm just happy this tough stretch of games will be over

    Blazers
    Lakers
    Grizzlies
    Jazz
    Wizards
    Heat
    Spurs
    Thunder
    Celtics
    Grizzlies
    Warriors
    Blazers
    Nuggets
    Bucks

    8-2 is good in my book. And without Chris and Eric, too. Hopefully the Rockets don't slack off.[/S]

    The Bucks stole our offensive gameplan in terms of taking shots at the rim or beyond the arc. Maybe it would be better to Clint on Giannis and PJ on Lopez considering Lopez has more range than Giannis?

    This is going to be an interesting game. I really think the Bucks should be favored against a short handed Rockets team. The Bucks play at a very fast pace while the Rockets slow it down. The Bucks are strong at rebounding and defense. This looks very challenging for the Rockets. As usual we need to get back on defense and hit our threes.
