Bucks 12/19 from distance already...
Bucks hang 82 points up in the first half.
Really like the potential of Jordan Nwora. What a find. Has a lightning quick release, 3 point range, size, a little length... a couple years from now he could be dangerous.

He's already more than good enough on offense to get minutes. It's whether he can hold up on defense.
Do you think we can get anything for DJ Wilson? He's got a 4.5 million potentially expiring contract (they could renew him for 6 million LOL).
The Bucks are not just making the looks... the decision making is the key. Extra passes, ball fake and drive to the rim, getting out on the break and making the right pass... just a difference in a year. And with guys that can knock down 3s, itâs like the Warriors of â16 in the quslity of the offense.
Bucks get up big and Giannis starts launching 3s a bit too eagerly
Just when I say that, Giannis jacks up 2 bad 3s...
Sloppy now... mostly Giannis and Middleton. Looks like theyâre trying to get thereâs before they are done for the night...
Not happy with this bullshit in the 3rd quarter...
Its the Thanasis show now!!!!
Nwora looks fantastic!
Buds canât be happy with the layups and the offensive second chances for Detroit.
Still ahead, but sloppy ending again. Giannis FT problems continue (6 of 10)
Giannis now 6 for 12 from the line.
I like it... they disrespect you, you donât take that shit, Giannis.
It would be nice to get a sweep on this homestand but I would expect things definitely will be tougher vs. the Jazz and maybe even the Cavs too.
Tough to get excited about the Pistons man thatâs a bad team.
Bucks need to do a better job in the second half of games. I realize itâs Detroit, but they need to keep their foot on the gas.
Augustin and Portis continue to play well and Nwora is a really interesting player that could make DJ Wilson somewhat expendable. They could really use another more physical big or defender as I think they have plenty of offense and shooter now especially if Nwora continues to emerge.

DJ Wilson is already expendable. I actually like the energy Thanasis brings when he's in the game, but the fact that DJ Wilson can't get on the court in place of Thanasis says a lot. I think he has enough talent to be on an NBA roster, but he's a guy that seems to lack any self-confidence at all at this point. He'd be better off going to a place like Detroit, playing bigger minutes on a crappy team, and proving to himself that he belongs in the NBA. That's probably never happening in Milwaukee. Maybe you can move him for a second-round pick at the deadline and use his prorated salary to sign some guys on the buyout market?
Augustin is a complete defensive liability and it will be interesting to see if you can play him for any minutes in a playoff series. Nwora is big enough to at least challenge shots and held us own last night on the defensive end. I think opposing defenses will have to treat him like they did Kyle Korver, so he'll really space the floor.
With Augustine, heâs the best point man to run P&R on the 2nd unit so heâs going to play. In a playoff series, theyâre going to have to roll the dice and give him 15-20 minutes. If someone is willing to sacrifice their offense to give it over to their PG on the second unit, so be it. Holiday gets all the other minutes anyway.
I am absolutely thrilled about Nwora. Heâs a mess defensively, and he can add some ass that will help him defend 4s, but he is an excellent scoring F. How different is he from Michael Porter Jr.? I would contend heâs a poor manâs version at least- same scoring ability without the hype.
