SO MUCH FOR THAT ARGUMENT ABOUT HOW GOOD JENNINGS WAS HEAD-TO-HEAD WITH IRVING. Brew Hoop took a swipe at Jennings too.

You know, I really didn’t hear a anyone argue that Jennings should have been chosen over Kyre Irving. Maybe I missed it.

Most defense of Brandon was over Holiday pick. That their records were close and Bucks had a winning record where 76ers did not. That in the last match up Brandon shut Holiday down.

Brandon really struggled last night, but I take no pleasure in that.

Go Bucks!

That makes it 4 losses between the Cavs and pistons. Instead of being 26-15, they are 22-19. A scary thought is looking at what the Central Division will look like in 2 years. The Bulls staying good with their core pieces, the Pacers same thing, the Cavs with Irving/Waiters and another high draft pick, the Pistons with Drummond/Monroe and a lot of other young pieces. Where will that leave the Bucks?

And its games like these that make it hard to jump on to the Bucks band wagon. They start to play good ball and you start to get your hopes up only to be let down with a second half meltdown against an inferior team. Being a Bucks fan will cause me to have a premature death.

Man, I was at a bar watching last night so I didn’t see what was really the cause of the loss. But man was I peeved. Of course I’m the only guy around wearing Bucks gear and urrybody starts talking junk. Asking me how the Bucks blew a 20 point lead. Grr! Hate this loss. Hate this loss a lot.

Man, these are games we HAVE TO WIN. I was at a concert and checked my phone between sets and saw they were up 20 and I thought, “No worries!” Then we lost.

Gotta beat teams like this to get better seeding. I suppose since Golden State is good we’ll win by 10 tonight… But then we have Detroit again and apparently we’re scared of them the most. C’mon guys…

I watched the game and when it ended I went back and watched the fourth quarter again to try and understand how this happened. It started in the third quarter where Bucks matched the Cavs in score, but the momentum did start to shift.
Then in the fourth there was a call against Dunleavy where the Cav shoved his knee into Mike’s back. Next Jennings was called for a foul where the Cav lost his balance because he stuck his knee out to keep BJ off and Jennings never touched him. Then a foul against Ersan on the other end that was not called. Well, that 7 point shift energized the crowd, the Cavs and frustrated the Bucks. The physical play of the larger Cavs stopped the Bucks from getting fast break points and the offense collapsed. Dunleavy & Jennings really struggled and this team doesn’t win when they are off.

Golden State had an equally bad game against the Bulls last night, so it is up to the Bucks to shake this off and play aggressive against GS tonight.

Go Bucks!
