Dame/Giannis/Brook have a +31.3 net rating since Griffin got fired. That #1 in the league out of 284 total 3-man lineups with 100+ minutes in that span.
Bucks are also 6th in the league in DRTG post Griffin firing. Doc/Joerger may have transformed this team.

This kid can play.
Its been funny to see guys go at him and he just stays strong and stays in front of them.

Is this team more likely to win a title with Khris Middleton or Jae Crowder playing more minutes?
It can be both.Karsenmitsche wrote:Can we please stop pretending this has anything to do with Pat Bev and nothing to do with the work the coaching staff has been doing? Transition approach on off/def alone is night and day difference. Communication/connectivity is something we haven't seen all year.

Throw Beasley in there and they are at +31.8.

He's okay one on one, he plays defense with his chest like Jrue. He still dies on screens almost as bad as Giannis.
Come playoffs he'll get targeted, hopefully he keeps improving.

As teams start to pay attention, he'll need to work on attacking close-outs and being able to hit a tough layup/floater or dish to guys in the dunker spot. But he can play.

Crowder is cursed though.

He has a quick release and a high release. I’d tell him to let it rip in rhythm. If a defender really tries to bother his shot he’ll be at high risk of fouling him.
