Just pull all the starters at this point 

Bucks mailing it in 

Hope Giannis is bonding with his kid over All Star weekend 

This was almost a coaching/management loss. When you sit down Korver (as well as George Hill) for load management right before you have a week off, it sends th e message you are mailing it in as a staff. 

I was surprised that Giannis didn't play tonight as well. I'd have rather seen him come back and play tonight and then sit out all-star weekend to spend time with his family. 

This is what Bucks basketball will look like if Giannis leaves. They'll beat the bad teams and win about 45 games and be a 6 seed. In other words, they'd look like the Pacers. A couple of good players (Oladipo/Sabonis = Middleton/Bledsoe) and good defense, but struggle to score. 

The Bucks are unbeaten without Giannis, but this is the first decent team they've played without him. 

The wins are against the Pelicans (without Zion), Hawks, Magic, Wizards, and Kings at home. None of those teams play defense. 

 

The officials are allowing an awwwwwful lot of contact on Bucks drives. 11 first half turnovers allowing 15 fast break points. Of course shooting 35% isn’t helping defense either... the  Bucks can’t throw it in the ocean. 

But it looks like they started the All Star break a game early. There’s no intensity- very much going through the motions. That doesn’t happen if #34 is around...
