Looks like Denver could lose their 4th in a row. Gave up 72 points in the half. Guess coach Malone isn’t doing so good in the timeout calling department.
Quoting Nick from the now locked Ime thread:

At some point you have to blame the performance on the court on the players on the court. Every loss is not the coach's fault and every win isn't because of the players.

It’s absolutely ridiculous how Giannis and Embiid are refereed. Even if they truck over someone intentionally the defender gets called for a foul

And through nearly 3 quarters of this Bucks-Suns game, Giannis has zero fouls. That’s a joke. No way he hasn’t committed any fouls

Well, if the Bucks aren't going to even lose one game on a Sacramento/Phoenix B2B road game, not sure we were going to catch up with them in the standings anyways regardless of our own play.

Nonetheless, the game between us later this month will still go a long way as a measuring stick game and giving the winning team confidence going into a potential series. That's especially true if we win given the history of the series this season.

I'm watching the Suns. Does Ayton always play with a near zero basketball IQ?

Don't diss Ayton, he's part of their Big Four.

I have a feeling that game will see both teams not at full strength.

Time to let the one seed go. In fact it might be time to embrace the 3 seed

It’s pretty awful watching the Sixers play with Embiid and Harden both quite genuinely cheating. Giannis is the same, and Lopez going down the Iguodala route of acting like a confused clown every time a call goes against him

Lebron also. All of these guys travel, lower their shoulder going to the hoop, run through defenders and use the off arm to clear space. Giannias travels almost every possession. It is just unfair.

The league wouldn’t, though.  They want stars putting up video game numbers.

I got to say though I respect that the Bucks, a team that won it all two years ago, are still playing every night hard and like they have a chip on their shoulders, no matter who the opponent and what the situation is. Even when there's some adversity in games or their schedule, they handle it head on and at times they also play selfless basketball.

C's could learn a thing. They haven't won anything yet, yet still act like they can coast and "flip a switch" when needed. The Bucks are taking care of business against bad teams while the C's can't even beat the Rockets nowadays
