The Bucks are 28th in rebounds which should be addressed because at that point it’s just effort that is lacking. The Bucks are also 28th in assists which is concerning if it keeps up. However, between Lillard getting more comfortable, Giannis focusing in passing off the PnR, and Khris getting more minutes that will inevitably increase.
Middleton off minutes restriction, I don’t think “saving him for the playoffs” is a smart idea. If he’s not able to play now how is he going to against playoff defenses?
Rebounding needs fixed asap
Defense needs fixed and Beasley needs out of the starting lineup. I’m not sure what coach would think Dame and Beasley would make a good backcourt defense but it isn’t working. People say it looks better but I think it was just a outlier that Raptors and Bulls just shot like shit because those are some and offensive teams.
I really think we end up getting fucked tonight against the Hornets with guys like Lamelo and Terry. Wouldn’t be surprised if we lost by 20 and this isn’t me trying be a doomer but that’s another young team that plays us well even when we had jrue last year. But luckily if Giannis plays they have 0 bigs to defend him.
I ain’t worried about Giannis and Dame clicking, they had basically like a week or two before the season and that goes with Dame and the whole team also. They will figure it out, they are to talented not to figure it out.
