PG: Bucks Pound Thunder

Neuromancer56 · Post #41 » by **Neuromancer56** » Mon Mar 25, 2024 1:59 am

Some of the best swarming defense I've seen out of the Bucks in years. Looks like Doc and the team are getting it figured out.

This game was a thing of beauty. I love to see the effort.

I do think this is a particularly bad matchup for OKC and good matchup for the Bucks. OKC needed Chet to shoot the ball really well to try to play Brook off the court and then just attack the basket. But he wasn't having that kinda night and the Bucks did a really good job of cutting off driving lanes otherwise.

Seems like we have too much strength in the paint for OKC to handle.

Denver I think is a dead even matchup and would be a close series.

Boston is just a different animal. I don’t think anyone has an answer to the problems they present.

I completely disagree about Boston, they're very good and with HCA can be very justifiably considered the favorites. But I don't see some unstoppable juggernaut.

I think we beat Denver, Denver beats Boston and unfortunately Boston beats us

Ironically the Celtics players themselves will be their own undoing

Don't agree, Boston matchup is drastically better for us than it was in the past. We will see but the Bucks in playoff mode will be a different animal. Think Heat have a decent chance of beating Boston in first round, mental is everything with Boston. Make them uncomfortable and they **** crumble, that's why their owns fans have doubts, they know this.

If Giannis has a big game Tuesday night against Lebron he may be able to get a media push for MVP since the Lakers are the only team some of these clowns watch

True. Giannis with big games against SHA and LeBron could have him back in the conversation.

Best win of the season. Thunder are the real deal and the bucks whooped them with no flukey shooting variance.

Full strength Wolves on the road was way better but not too shabby

What's going to drive you nuts is that the *backup* radio guy is at least as good as Koehn.

Really? Listened to him for the Brooklyn game and thought he was awkward as hell. Doesn't have the voice or charisma for radio. Also he would announce if the shot missed like 4 seconds after the fact and that bugged the hell outta me :lol:

I didn't watch but radio was left in good hands when Ted retired.

Dope, I think I have a good pulse for radio. Koehn is great and probably should be on TV, if he gets really good could find a bigtime job with that radio voice

Thunder too small.

Bobby-Giannis bigs lineup unlocked.

Coaching matters a lot.

He tries to provide way too much analysis and info. If he would just stick to describing the action, he would be much better. His style is better suited for TV.
