Damn the Mavs got off to a pretty strong start against the Bucks 44-20 at the end of the first quarter.
Strong response by the Bucks, and a solid win. Dame was nearly perfect--30 points on 11 shots. Pretty impressive that he, Giannis and Middleton all had 8+ assists. I wonder how often that's happened.
He played through it in Utah. They decided to rest him vs the Suns. Bucks coach Doc Rivers said during his pregame media session that Lillard wanted to play against Phoenix. “Obviously, if it was a playoff game, he would play,” Rivers said. “Losing Dame for this team is a big one because Dame brings the ball up.”
I will be very surprised if they don't go on a big winning streak before the end of the regular season. (Of course, it will also be amazing if they don't flame out in the playoffs.)
what if Doc ruins the Bucks, the Bucks can not fire him because they would have to pay 3 Coaches, Giannis is fed up with it and decides to leave. We own their future. Let's hope it get's messy
