BS Bill, look at the shooting percentages on this team. BJ and Monta are the ones who cant make shots.

Yeah, maybe we should try a different type of offense. I can’t save I love the dribble hand-off.

i think its more of the offense run by skiles, bucks offense is dribble hand off its whole point is to set the guards up which works well with jennings and ellis but if sanders is going to be involved they seriously need to mix it up and play a little of that and a little pick and roll

They’re both good at getting to the rim…they just both suck at finishing at the rim lol

Spot on.

Take a player like Larry or Mbah a Moute, they know what they can do. They know their offensive limitation and they usually go out and play within their skill sets and deliver good results.

Jennings and Ellis don’t seem to be aware of what their skills are (nor am I). Both should be good at getting to the rim, neither are. Neither can defend at all and are constantly getting out classed by every single opposition match up.

Perfect example of Ellis not having a clue about his game: Under 20% 3 pt shooting this year, under 32% for his career and yet he just keeps shooting 3 pointers. He is by far one of the worst 3pt shooters in the league of people who actually attempt to shoot them on a regular basis.

It was a head shaker of a game to watch, but somehow this scrappy bunch got it done. Difference between this game and the Memphis game is that everyone on the TEAM participated in the game.

Go Bucks

A little harsh Ian, but somewhat agreed. the back court inefficiencies is mind-numbingly frustrating, but I refuse to lose my faith in those two. Too many people already hate the bucks. 95% of Madison(where i am from) could care less about the bucks and it makes me sick.

Backcourt inefficiencies be damned, Bucks just took the season series from the team regarded by most experts as the 2nd best team in the Eastern Conference in the Preseason, they might not have been deserving of that honor but still pretty cool for the Bucks proving head to head superiority over the Celtics is a nice little feather in their cap.
