    Bucks are getting drilled by the Raps

    Joe Harris having 5 3pt attempts in nearly as many minutes is not ideal…

    We had some of the worst three point D in the league before that too. Obviously up until this year I could draw the correlation in the roster holdovers that were leading Chauncey's teams, this year I don't think we can tell for sure if it's Chauncey's scheme or the fact that we have such a young team.

    I like Chauncey, he seems like a great guy but I'm not sure about his ability to be a head coach at the NBA level. I don't think our opponent's three point percentage will be one of the measuring sticks for if Chauncey is successful this season.

    That pass from Scoot to Ayton should have been a dunk.

    That pass to Ayton was good. It's not Scoot's fault that Ayton fumbled it.

    Sasser or Murray? Murray was supposed to be ready to play. Sasser is making an impact. I get that Sasser wasn't a need, but do we expect Murray to be impactful?

    I just watched it again and Scoot dumped it right into Ayton's lap. He fumbled it.

    They're shooting 40% better than us from 3.
