Bucks up 32-27 after one.
Giannis plays 8 minutes and Bucks are +12 in those minutes. They are -7 in the 4 minutes he sat.

Bucks getting sloppy in the 3rd. Lead down to 7
Giannis goes out. Like clockwork, Middleton misses a couple of shots and has a terrible turnover that directly leads to a layup. 13 point lead shrinks to 9 and Bud calls timeout.
13 point game at the end of 3. Giannis with 22-10-5 and George Hill and Brook Lopez have been lights out
Giannis comes out with Bucks up 18 with 6 minutes left.
24 (10-13 FG), 10 rebounds, 7 assists, 4 blocks in 30 minutes.
Nice to see the backup Gs getting their rhythm. This is what they need come playoff time.
When Giannis goes out, Kris Middleton is becoming a liability. If you’re going to be a black hole on offense, you better make that shit. But therein lies the issue... he’s shooting 42%. And then his tendency to get cute with the ball exacerbates the problem.
I don’t care if he’s a good defender. He’s become a complete liability on offense. That’s how teams like the Lakers and Cavs go on these big runs...
Middleton made the "Dagger" 3 to push the lead to 119-103.
He needs to practice FT's

That's a typical Middleton game. He starts out shooting about 5 for 14 (including 0-3 or 0-4 when Giannis sits) then he'll hit 3 of 4 in the 4th quarter and end up with a decent stat line (8 for 18). He seems to hit 4th quarter shots in close games or in blowouts. He's a much better shooter with Giannis on the floor.
It seems like you need to get Middleton involved early for him to have a big game. Don’t know if it’s a confidence or focus issue but I don’t like the trend of him having big 4Q in games that have already been decided. We need him to step up in other parts of the game too.
Marques Johnson half time ceremony actually had me a bit teary-eyed. Was great to be there and experience the tribute to such an under appreciated player. Was cool to see Big Bob, Junior, and Sir Sid. Congrats #8 you were ahead of your time in being one of the first great point forwards.
