I’m so lucky to have Fox Sports WI and not have to watch any national bs.  Of course I have YouTube TV and just got notice that Sinclair and Google are in a dispute so I’m losing FS WI in a couple of daysðŸ˜Ą- hope they get it worked out soon!

Just got home from Fiserve. It was Throwback Night....Bucks did a great job filling the forum with energy, probably one of the best atmospheres in my many games to the Forum. Great music, fun events, tons of throw back uniforms.....and Kareem was there. 

Bucks were like a well oiled machine. 13 players played 10 minutes or more. 133-87 and OKC has won 14 of their last 17 so they are no slouch.

So much fun !!

 

It’s come to the point with me that I just look past the bullshit.  You know, Lakers this, Harden (MVP) that, the Bucks haven’t won anything, Giannis may go elsewhere, yadda yadda yadda. 

In the end what I do think matters is you continue to improve and stay hungry and motivated.   This team - starting with Giannis - seems to have that laser focus and don’t care about the stats or the drama and that’s a good place for this team to be.  It also appears that they are developing that killer mentality that every good team needs to have to push you past the finish line. 

To be a championship team in the NBA it seems you have to take your lumps before eventually getting over. It’s almost like a rite of passage.  Last years playoff experience (disappointment) should prepare them well for what’s coming in May and hopefully June.

Fox Sports Wisconsin? What's that? I live in Wisconsin and have not ever had that channel in my cable line up.

You have to remember that the ESPN panel had Paul Prentice, former Celtic, on it. All his pro Boston crap is just that. Crap. All the other heads on that panel were saying Giannis should on a bigger market team and taking jabs at the Milwaukee market. I think they are actually afraid of the Bucks. I do not think they have seen anything like them, ever! I'd like to hear what Kareem has to say about Milwaukee, this year. I'm betting it isn't about the Bucks being in a smaller market or about Boston getting into the play offs.

Re: Harden 😆😂  

What Giannis said was true. "I want someone who is going to pass the ball" He didn't question Hardens skill level. 

What Harden said is not true "7 feet tall & only dunk" When Giannis does dunk, he usually has to fight through 3 or more defenders on his way to the rim. This ain't some pickup game at the YMCA. That takes skill in the NBA. Not to mention Giannis pops 3's & has been working on that deadly turn around "Durant style" mid-range jumper. They call Durant the Slim Reaper. Giannis might have to be called the Greek Ripper

Rockets aren't going to make the finals. They might get past first round but It sure would be juicy if they did make finals vs. Milwaukee.

Coach Budd has a big job the next 8 weeks. Keeping this entire team sharp with virtually nothing to play for.

Bucks have 23 left. They could lose all 23 & still be the 6 seed. If they go 11-12, they're still no worse than the 3rd seed, provided Toronto or Boston don't lose 3 or more. If they go 14-9 worst they can end up is #2.

Coach Budd has a big job ahead of him.

Cheezers, thats terrible news.  We “cut the cable” a couple years ago and when choosing a streaming package my one qualifier was - it had to have a regional sports package with Fox’s Sports Wisconsin. I dont watch much “TV” but when I do its gonna be the Brewers and Bucks. Went with DirecTV Now which is now AT&T TV Now. Have to go up a few packages to get FSW but we are paying less than half of what we paid Spectrum Cable . 

Harden needs to understand that Giannis is a 1st team All NBA defensive player which is something he knows nothing about.  

Harden is a gifted scorer but damn so are about 50 others in the NBA.   There are only a few players in the league that can do what Giannis can do on both ends of the court.  Lebron, AD, Kahwi, Embiid - that’s about it.
