Bucks up 17-12
I haven't watched LeBron in a while. You forget how much of a whiner he is. Literally every call he acts as if he's been denied what he deserves and the officials are against him.

Man, how bad are the Lakers with all that talent.......
JFC but the Lakers are bad.
Couldn’t happen to a more deserving group of self-important prima donnas
In general, the Lakers look like a bunch of guys playing at the Y. They look completely disinterested and their only offense consists of LeBron holding for about 8 seconds and then shooting.
With this being 3rd game in 4 days, I just hope the Bucks can hang on for 4 quarters.
So the Bucks put up 78 in the 1st half. Are the Lakers even trying at this point?
Giannis gets a technical for doing about 1/10th of what LeBron did.
Bucks go up 30, but then let the Lakers go 6-0 coming out of timeout. Just keep this 25 or so and it can be a Thanasis 4th quarter.
Now 8-0 run as Bud sits both Giannis and Middleton. Not sure why you take them both out in this situation. Still 22, but seemed a bit early to do that.
Bucks put Giannis back and it stabilizes. Would be more without the classic DDV wild turnover.
Down to 14. This team just really sucks at putting teams away. They get big leads, only to piss them away.
If there were more than 3 minutes left, I’d be really nervous. I’m still not sold this game is over. We’ve been outscored 26-16 in the 4th.
Giannis playing out of his mind, beside a rather pedestrian night at the line. 17 of 20 from the floor, 44 points, 14 rebounds, 8 assists a steal and two blocks.
Milwaukee 4-0 to start February, with wins of 14, 29, 24 and 15.
If Giannis isn’t getting SERIOUS MVP consideration, something is wrong.
Typical NBA game the Bucks build a huge lead and LA hangs around a lot longer than they should.
Giannis with a monster effort. Lakers are just awful defensively. That’s not a good team.
Portis has been playing unreal the last several games. 20+ again.

ESPN does not want to promote him like they do LeBron, Durant, Curry, and a few others. This is from an exchange on ESPN yesterday between JJ Redick and Stephen A. Smith when Smith was downplaying Giannis.
Disclaimer - I never watch Smith - I think he and Bayless are buffoons, so I got this indirectly from Twitter.
The Bucks played the Lakers twice this year. Anthony Davis (supposedly as good a defender to guard Giannis as anyone in the league) played both games.
Giannis averaged
45.5 points, 11.5 points, 5.5 assists, 1.5 blocks, 1 steal, 2 turnovers, 36 minutes
35-43 from the floor (81.45%) LOL
5-6 from three (83.3%)
16-24 from the line (67%)
And the Lakers lose to a bunch of no names in Portland. Simply amazing.
The LAL are an absolute shit show and I’m loving every minute of it.

That doesn't shock me one little bit. I don't watch ESPN much anymore but I do follow them on twitter. What you get on twitter is a tweet every few minutes about every little thing LABron or the Lakers do in a game. Prime example was they showed LABron doing a reverse dunk against the Bucks. But they fail to mention the Lakers were down 22 points at the time.
I swear ESPN would post about the color and consistency of LABron's morning dumps.
Just heard Bucks trade for Serge Ibaka and DDV is gone to Sacramento.
