Tough loss against the LAC on Saturday.  They got down big and stormed back and forced OT just to fall short. 

The dreaded back to back is next later today against a very good Denver team.

Historically the Bucks rarely win in Denver and it won’t be an easy task but hope they get their legs back and make it a game.  After a tough schedule things will ease up a bit and they return home. 

DEEZ NUTS!

That’s a tough back to back...  LA then to mile high. They go 2-2 and win the two games you wouldn’t have thought they would win. Lopez has made 14 threes the last 2 games.

Bledsoe is a WIP, guys... he showed tonight that he can take over a game in the clutch. He just needs to learn when and when not. He’s never been coached. He’s learning now. He’s not the shooter Kemba is, but he’s a better athlete and defender. He can be better than Teague. 

Lopez had two very good shooting games against the Clippers and Nuggets.  He adds a nice dimension when he can hit those 3s.  

They have played a pretty tough schedule to start the season and are 10-3 with a number of quality wins.   Keep it up and the sky is the limit this year.

Agree with the Bledsoe comments. When he plays like he did against Golden State, the Bucks are a title contender. When he plays like he did against Boston in the playoffs last year, with the new roster the Bucks probably win a playoff series but don't go very deep.

Bucks are 7-3 so far against teams with winning records. 3 of their next 4 are against good teams but all at home. 

I didn’t realize their schedule out of the gate was this challenging. 

Compare that to Toronto that has played 13 games but only 6 games against teams with winning records.  Their schedule gets a lot more challenging end of November up to Christmas.  They face a west coast trip and 11 of 14 against decent teams. 

Point is I am not all that concerned about Toronto and their 12-1 record.   The Bucks are playing their most difficult stretch of the season and are winning most of them. That’s a really good sign.
