Looking forward to this one. I enjoy watching Jokic. It was a good game when we played them a couple of weeks ago. Once again a premiere matchup is regulated to a Monday night, no national TV.

No Khris.

First of another B2B

Go Bucks

would be a good one to win to restore some optimism

Should've played today in place of Heat/Boston.

Is the other Denver game the only game we’ve had the starting 5 under doc? Injuries and personal stuff happens but we’ve had bad luck all season

Really? Brook, Giannis and Dame have been injury-free. If anything, Khris' injury was the first time the core was impacted. Not bad for a high miles quartet.

True on the injury front but I was counting Adrian Griffen being a horrible coach/hire as bad luck too. As soon as we got rid of him, Dame got banged up, Brook missed some games and now it looks like we might only have a dozen or so games before the playoffs with new coaching and our core guys.

Nuggets favored by 1.5

Griff being bad ain't luck, but maybe he put the bad mojo on w/ his departure.

A key player in this game is Nicole A. Jokic.imo

Bucks at home. I expect a solid W. Something to get this board excite.

Maybe a 120-104 victory is in order.

I miss the days when I thought we had a shot to win a game like this. Last season seems like so long ago.

I’m interested to see how Jamal Murray plays against Pat Bev. I think we’re gonna find out right away what type of dividends that trade is gonna pay. He went for 35 on good efficiency in Denver but admittedly he hit quite a few tough shots with Beasley in good position. I’m hoping the Pat Bev mind game is the difference maker in that regard. A tall task for a 6’2” 35yr old but I’m sure he’s up for the challenge. Bucks in 6

The Bucks are playing much better defense, for the most part. I expect continued improvement.

I do find it funny that some of the same people who criticized BP for getting into tangles with the opposition, are now celebrating the
likelihood of Beverly doing the same thing.

I do think Beverly is a smarter player than BP, but he does lose it on occasion and it isn't always planned like he tries to portray.

I love the addition of an edge player, but in a big game it could cause issues. Will Beverly allow KM to grab him like KM does with BP when he goes too far?

Games like these are great for the bet against the home team strategy. If the Bucks win you don't regret the money lost, and if they don't you atleast get some compensation.

Pat Bev has the same wingspan as Jrue. He's not all mindgames. He defends.

The first Sixers game vs. Denver this year he did hold Murray to 0 points & 2 turnovers, when defending him.

Not sure how he fared in the rematch, with Murray getting 23 & Nuggets winning by 6. No Embiid or Maxey. *Though I did see he had 17 points & 11 assists himself.

Scott Foster officiating

Did you think we'd win the Boston game?

I expect a win

It's Prunty's birthday... they're going to be unstoppable.

A Bucks win would feel great. Really hope Pat Bev can continue his level of impact and have the crowd and Bobby and others feed off that.
