Middleton did look pretty decent including how he was moving around on defense.   If the Bucks get that version of Middleton come the postseason the Bucks are as big of a threat as any team out there.

I think what also gets overlooked is that the Bucks are the one team that can go toe to toe with Boston in terms of shooting the 3.  They have 3 guys that are 40% career shooters in Green and Middleton and Portis.   They have 3 more guys that are 38% or better from 3 in Lopez and Dame and Beasley.  Even guys like Pat C and Beverly and Crowder can hit outside shots.

Lillard and Lopez have started to heat up recently so what’s going to be key is that Middleton stays healthy and they continue to move the ball well.  A lot of their 3s today were good looks.

As for Phoenix, I have no idea why that team (like Dallas) is basically a fringe playoff team.  Not sure what the plan was today but Durant was literally a non factor.  How Allen and O’Neale get more shot attempts each is mind boggling to me.

Right now, the 4 teams in the playin for the West are the Lakers, Warriors, Suns, and Mavs. 10 sure-fire HOFers and 2 borderline guys on those 4 teams.

Durant, Doncic, Kyrie, LeBron, AD, Westbrook, Curry, Klay, Draymond, Chris Paul.

Booker, Beal
