    Welp...

    We were already in trouble given this is a terrible matchup for us and that Eric Bledsoe owns us. This is the icing on the cake.

    SMH. Hope the Rockets are ready to play.

    I'm sorry but I don't see what Scola jerking off into a bell has to do with winning this game. :eek:

    Really excited about the game!

    Expecting the length of the Bucks to cause us major troubles, anything better than a 20 point loss is a bonus!
    I think House in the starting lineup is brilliant, our bench looks so good with EGo on it (as long as he is having fun).
    Tyson Chandler should get the spot minutes against RoLo
    Harden might go for 50 in Wes Mathews grill?

    • This game features the past three Most Valuable Player winners: Giannis Antetokounmpo (2018-19), James Harden (2017-18) and Russell Westbrook (2016-17). Harden finished as the runner-up behind both Antetokounmpo and Westbrook when they won their MVPs.

    • Last season, Milwaukee swept the two-game season series with Houston for the first time since 1999-2000. A win over the Rockets would give the Bucks their longest winning streak in the series since winning three straight from 3/24/98-3/16/00.
    • In two games against the Bucks last season, James Harden averaged 32.5 points (his ninth-lowest average against any team), while shooting 39.3% (his fourth-lowest percentage) from the field and 28% from beyond the arc (his sixth-lowest percentage).
    • In two games against the Rockets last season, Giannis Antetokounmpo averaged 23 points per game (his sixth-lowest average against any opponent). He shot just 48.4% from the field (his lowest average against any team he faced more than once), but his 17.5 rebounds were his highest average against any team he faced more than once.
    • Russell Westbrook is set to make his Rockets debut against the Bucks. In two games against Milwaukee last season while he was with OKC, Westbrook averaged 14 points, 14 rebounds and 12 assists as the Thunder were one of only two teams to sweep a season series over the league-leading 60-win Bucks.

    Harden gonna age like Lebron IMO...still dominant at age 34 or 35 putting up nice box score stats with trash D...put mediocre talent around him, and there’s a good chance he won’t be able to secure a playoff spot in the West

    I’m expecting a double digit loss. Think this team is going to take some time to find itself. Prove me wrong boys.

    Harden and these shots in warmups on NBATV is ridiculous. This guy makes everything.
