We beat them at home when we were undermanned, it's really big that we didn't let them do the same.

Also really impressed with some of Giannis' shot making later in the 4th. Jumpers and hook shots vs attacking the ring.

Great to see Dame hitting his 3's. I'm also glad Powell didn't hit his.

Sorry but the DLo wiretap story is just the plot of Joker.

We made Powell play off the dribble enough, and forced him to take some above the break 3s. He's awesome on catch and shoot corner 3s, but isn't real good at anything else.

Powell always seems to do great against us. Today he was 3-14 from 3

I thought Dave Koehn was good the first time he did a TV game. I didn't think he was very good today. He misidentified players, missed some stuff, just not good overall ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Beat the Kings and salvage the road trip somewhat.

Was this simulacasted on 620 and TV?

Dame and Giannis are figuring it out. and once they do nothing will matter

they are figuring it out and it still feels very far from its potential / what it should be

So PatBev is Giannis' a-hole now? There's a really weird meme to come out of that I'm sure.

Clippers went on a winning streak after we beat them and we lost 2.... then we come back and beat them again ... they must hate us

Going to be very disappointed if I don't hear "you're our A-hole" chants in Milwaukee.

All I've noticed this road trip is that because Gianni is dealing with the tendonitis, he's been quietly relying more on his finesse, angles, handles and passing in the half-court. And the chemistry with Dame in the pick-and-roll has looked the best it has all season. That is a dramatic development heading toward the playoffs. If they keep figuring it out to where it's like Murray and Jokic and just comes natural good luck to the East to try and stop these two.

I'd like to see Dame get more velocity on some his passes to Giannis, but other than that, I'm happy they went to the pick and roll so much at the end of the game.

I wonder if that was a big learning from the Lakers loss. Give it to Dame and get out of the way certainly can work, but having Dame and Giannis both involved is such an obviously beneficial strategy.

Only three pages for a W? Do people still care about the Oscars?

I didnt watch this game. But if its true that Giannis finally learned how to make screens then I dont know how anybody who watched this game can talk about anything else. Its game changer.

He's still rarely setting *good* screens, but his commitment to it is going up. There was at least one screen where he planted, stayed set and Dame buried it. Giannis needs to see results like that to accept absorbing the contact. He is a physical player, obviously, but he likes to shy away from contact when he does not have the ball. Doc needs him to cut out this slip nonsense, although you can mix that in, and get him to plant and get set consistently. This offense will be unstoppable with Giannis setting strong screens.

Nice to have this Dame guy in crunch time init?
