Bucks starters tonight: Middleton-Giannis-Ersan-Mirotic-Lopez
6'8, 6'10, 6'10, 6'11, 7'0
That might be the tallest starting lineup in Bucks history (maybe one of the tallest in NBA history)

BROOK LOPEZ BLOCK PARTY!!!! 6 BLOCKS IN THE FIRST Q!?!?!?!?
I am guessing the coaches in the NBA just spit their coffee when they saw that starting lineup... because if it works... uh oh.
Wish they would've saved it for the playoffs then unleash it.
Up 3 at the quarter. Gonna be tough tonight in the second half when the back to back game minutes start to effect them and without Bledsoe and Brogdon (and George Hill).
This ongoing Utah run is all about them getting cute offensively. Middleton out there trying behind the back passes, no one penetrating, early shot clock bombs from 30 feet... 
Why is Giannis dribbling in 4 feet to take long 2s instead of just taking a wide open 3?
Starting to get away from them. May just be a game where you sit guys in the 4th and concede.
Connaughton, Canaan, Wilson, Snell, and Lopez playing that many minutes is a give up lineup. They should have just sat Giannis tonight as well.

This is a D league lineup with a good NBA center. No wonder you give up a huge run.
WHERE IS THE OFFENSE!?!?!? They haven’t got a good look in over a quarter. It all started with Middleton and his turnover fest... then the secondary players all got out of rhythm.
This is where they miss Bledsoe. He’s the stabilizer. And ever since they did the “load management” with Giannis, he has sucked offensively. And when he sucks, who’s there to pick it up? When Middleton says “I will!”, he starts turning the friggin ball over.
Giannis should have been rested. These back to back games against rested teams set up terrible games.
Down 7. The bench guys got toasted.
Snell (-21 in 11 minutes), Wilson (-11 in 11), Canaan (-14 in 10), Connaughton (-14 in 15).
Canaan is not a guy who should get NBA minutes.
Yeah, 10 day contract guy, get what you get I guess. Brown, Hill both unavailable, and I'm guessing Bledsoe hit LA last night to celebrate his new deal and the game he played against the Lakers.
They’re letting Mitchell get too comfortable... you let him find a rhythm and he’ll start making everything...
Utah taking little shots at Giannis off the ball now... Goebert and Ingles both with a couple should chucks asctge came by. He’s in their heads now...
If you take away Lopez and Giannis, the rest of the team is 10 for 44

If you also take away Middleton, the rest of the team is 4 for 27. Amazing they are in this position.

How is that not a foul on Ingles and free throws for Ilyasova???
Officials let Ilyasova get abused on a shot with no call and it leads to a 3 on the other end. 5 point swing.
Good grief... they’re taking the first look they get...
