    Yes. Unlike Brewer.

    Corey Brewer is the hero we don't deserve and really don't need.

    Our second unit really shat the bed early in the second . No one could do anything and the bucks were distrupting our every offensive action . I think we turned the ball over like 4 times in a row .

    Mil went on a 14-0 run to start the 2nd .

    Hope James ankle is OK , because we are gonna need him to play just as well in the second half

    I honestly think he's favoring the toe a bit. I saw him laboring a bit last game.

    Kidd should go back to making Giannis their full-time point guard again. Special talent.

    Law of Averages says it is almost impossible to keep shooting at 70% from the field for 48 minutes.

    It's free throws and 3-pointers. Rockets have twice as many FT attempts (16-8) and more 3-pointers (8-5). The Bucks do have more turnovers, but it's not a huge advantage (13-10).

    It goes without saying, but James Harden is without a doubt the most important player for his respective team, more than any other player in the NBA. What a performance so far sheesh...

    I understand the Bucks shoot 68% from the field, but you have to guard the dynamic duo of Giannis and Jabari better. Both can score 35+ if we don't.

    BS. You know it's the Dmo effect, right? We would beat contenders by 20 if we would have signed him too.

    Not impossible, but however, highly unlikely.

    Harden isn't even on god mode tonight lol. This is actually what I like the most about the Rox, a lot of their losses were really close. Even in games where they up against bad matchups like Memphis or elite teams like the Cavs, you look at the final score and it's not that bad.

    Would be totally surprised if the Rox lose this game, Bucks are playing as good as they'll ever be and we're only down 2 possessions.

    Wonder if the Bucks will miss this half. Probably not.
