Bucks at Jazz, January 27th

Bucks really sloppy to start. Have allowed Markinnen to score 10 points in the first 6 minutes. Bucks up 18-17.

The Bucks didn't really play all that well, but the Jazz are tanking. Bucks up 35-26. Micah Potter tried to challenge a Giannis dunk and it went about like you'd expect. Giannis at 14-5-2 after one.

Bucks playing with their food in the first half here. Only a 4 point lead deep into the second quarter.

9 point Bucks lead at the half. They've played mostly disinterested defense.

Bucks up 20 going to the 4th. Everything looking good except Giannis is 3 for 10 from the line.

Bucks were up 24, but getting very sloppy and Jordan Clarkson has gone nuclear and it's down to 15. They may have to bring Giannis back in the 4th even with the back to back tomorrow.

Down to 14 and Giannis has to come back with 5 minutes left. Even if they win, it's setting up a loss tomorrow in the back to back since they couldn't get this done sooner. Giannis and Dame will have to play 35+ minutes now.

Good win, but late games are hard to follow as to how it's going, at least for me.

Now on to Portland tomorrow night, get another win Bucks.

Middleton looked great last night. If you don’t play good defense he can still light you up. But it’s different lighting up the Jazz compared to the Cavs, Knicks, Pacers, or Celtics which is what really matters.

The Jazz are one of the worst teams in the association but if you don’t come to play (especially as a road team) you can get beat.
