Bucks up 5 in the 2nd. Memphis is playing very physical. Bumping and grinding on every possession. An ugly game right now

A really cheap foul on Giannis and then a bad reach on him gets him in foul trouble and Memphis now ahead.
Officiating has been really questionable tonight. Memphis has been bumping and grabbing all night and getting away with it.
DJ FRIGGIN WILSON!!!
What a 3rd Quarter!!!!
Put Giannis on the bench....still score 41 in the 3rd - Just unreal.
Eye Heart this Milwaukee Buck coaching staff.
No mercy!
Memphis ain't Toronto or Boston but NO MERCY!
DJ Wilson looked like a two way superstar in the 3rd. Music's right - he was dominant.
Giannis scores 27 in 22 minutes.
The Bucks get wins in the back to back and Giannis only has to play 47 minutes total in the two games.
Dude... a 6’9” Japanese player??? Tha ****???
Harden scores 58 and they’re about to lose...
Man, what is there to say about DJ Wilson??? The scores 13-2-2-2, most of it in the 3rd quarter. He was everywhere... total effort, literally changed the game when the Bucks fell behind 59-58.
His defensive technique is amazing. Long arms, but great hands and feet. And unlike Maker, who makes a few big plays and gets out of himself, Wilson just keeps making play after play. Gets a huge steal, and gets the drop off on the break- and instead of trying to crush one, dumps it to Brown for an open layup because the defense came out on him. Very mature play from a young player.
If this is what he will be, he’s going to be a really, really good player for this team. What a difference a year makes...
Best record in the league
DJ is the anti Maker
JSO really highlighted Bledsoe’s play last night, and that’s fair. Bledsoe was just as important. Like DJW he was everywhere- and if he continues to play this way he’s making a strong case to be an All-Defensive team candidate.
The Bucks have the #1 defense in the NBA, and the biggest improvement has been the way Bledsoe has disrupted passing lanes and stayed in front of guys to prevent penetration. Offensively he’s up and down, and he’s a great finisher, but it’s been his defense that’s been the best part.
