Bucks (10-4) at Celtics (11-3) Game #15 11/22/23

[Atzar]

Encouraging to see Jaylen play a nearly-flawless half of basketball after a real stinker against Charlotte. 

Keep leaning on that pick-and-roll game with him and Porzingis.  That's a weapon for us and stats support that.

JB with a really nice first half.  Choosing his spots and attacking the rim hard, moving the ball around.
13 points on 6 shots and 5 assists, 0 turnovers.

we're shooting 58% overall and 52% from 3, Bucks at 40% and 36% from 3...Bucks will come back hard in the 2nd half, they have to be ready. Our shooting from 3 is probably going to tail off, we can't let that spark some Bucks runs. Their defense leaves much to be desired but I have a lot of respect for their offense, especially Dame who can get it going in an instant

Celtics should still be able to get whatever they want. Bucks defense is poor.

Up 20 and then gave up a 7-2 run. Need to close this half better...

Yeah not good bucks will have to feel good

They haven't shown us anything to be scared of yet.
They have 0 answers on d and their offense is random. We're making them work hard for most of their pts.

[Who]

They are going to have to trade Middleton. He can't get it done out there.

2yrs after this one left on his deal.

Who would want him at that money?

Someone who has a worse contract they want to get out of.

Who would that be? I can't think of anyone....

Yeah, I am struggling too. Beal? If he doesn't pan out in Phoenix. LaVine. Chicago should get better offers.

Might have to wait until next offseason until they can move Middleton. Easier to move with only 2 years on his deal.

I wish Holiday wasn’t worse than Smart offensively, but at least he is awesome defensively.

Nice that we have a lead, but I’m not encouraged by our complete inability to grab a defensive rebound. Bucks have a number of easy put-backs. They won’t go away because of that ability, so we are going to need to keep shooting lights out to win.

38-36 in the 2nd quarter makes me a bit uncomfortable

If Middleton can't play better def than he showed tonight, and he is really that cooked, the list is going to be really short (ie none).
Bucks gotta hope he still hasn't fully recovered and that he will be better as the season goes along.

Lillard looking sharp. Hope he keeps shooting.

Yup. Middleton is looking like Joe Ingles out there.

[jpotter33]

Terrible start. We look slow.

[Phantom255x]

Horrible start. Come on guys...

[SCeltic34]

Not another letdown 3rd quarter please.

[Phantom255x]

CALL A TIMEOUT

[Phantom255x]

Oh my god Doris Burke truly is a Celtics hater. She praises Lopez so much then rips on KP like huh??

[Phantom255x]

Jays just need to take this over. Bucks can't stop them
