Both of these must happen

  1. Dame plays. 0-2 without Dame

  2. Giannis and/or Dame drops 30. Better if 3 or 3 players drop 30

As soon as Giannis hit 30 in the Portland game I knew the Bucks were gonna win.

    Newly-minted Bucks fan here. The other day I was driving my car on the interstate freeway and didn’t realize I was on “4” instead of “D” on my shifter. I was wondering why my engine was struggling until I looked down and shifted it properly into drive.

    So far this season, the Bucks remind me of this. They play down to the opposition instead of keeping it in Drive and stepping on their throats early and often. I mean, down by 26 at home to my Blazers, arguably the worst team in the league? It was seamless (and scary) how they just turned it up a notch and put the game away in the second half. The issue is that they shouldn’t have to wait to do that. Dame Time is a nice insurance policy but is not a great tactic to use in every game to bail us out.

    We have Giannis, Dame, BroLo, Khris, Portis, Pat, etc…an embarrassment of riches. We will be just fine. Still, it would be nice see a thirstier, more ruthless Bucks team in the first half.

    Just my $0.02 worth 😉
