The Bucks FINALLY win back-to-back games again | How can the Bucks keep these winning ways going?
Milwaukee Bucks finally break their back-to-back win drought, powering past the Charlotte Hornets for the first consecutive victories since October. Can Giannis Antetokounmpo and company transform these wins into a true streak and climb the Eastern Conference standings?
Camille Davis and Frank Madden break down the Bucks’ group effort in the win against the Hornets, spotlighting Bobby Portis’ hot shooting, Myles Turner’s standout performance, and the surging confidence among young guards Kevin Porter Jr. and Ryan Rollins. The hosts analyze Milwaukee’s play adjustments with Giannis in the lineup, free-throw shooting, and discuss key upcoming challenges against the Washington Wizards to end the 2025 calendar year. With Giannis back—albeit on a minutes restriction—could the Bucks finally be finding their rhythm on both ends of the court?
Don’t miss this fresh look at the team’s evolving identity and their quest to climb out of an early season hole.

We got our ass kicked on the boards tonite without Sims out there, 48-31. The Hornets got a lot more offensive rebounds, too, 16-4. The only reason that didn't hurt us was bc Charlotte shot terribly and missed those extra possession opportunities. A better team would have made us pay for that.
thanks for the show guys!
We will win the next 4 games. I am confident.
Yessss.. lets go. 🥰👏👏👏.
Shout out to Frank and Camille 😍
Just what was needed – back to back wins to keep Quack Rivers job till next year
fire doc the day before yesterday
Another sad performance from Green, the great sniper hits 0ne 3 in 26 minutes giving up 30 puppies to the other team – sad
Is it Halloween, Trent looked hideous in new hairdo, does Quack Rivers do hair too?
Giannis might actually be a better player playing less
This guy used the word "LIKE" at least 50 times … I'm 100% confident that if you took that word out of his vocab, he would perish. ☠
I kind of like Giannis‘s minute restriction seems to be working good. Seems more efficient and the other guys are learning to play together better it probably doesn’t make any sense to keep playing him less it just seemed earlier in the season that there was too much pressure on him to carry the load.
And some idiots were in here talking about Trade Giannis. Swear y'all are nowhere to be seen when we win
Fire Doc🎉🎉 Harris out there getting exercise to many minutes. Kuzma basketball IQ is terrible to many minutes. If AJ green not hitting 3’s why is he playing 30 minutes I don’t get. Bobby might be the worst rebounder in traffic I ever seen but long as he gets buckets he’s good. Still on Sims or Jackson jr. I don’t get it.
I dont understand why we play green and not ajax? If green dont hit then its 4 vs 5 on the defensiv end but ajax would gives us elite defensive effort for the same price…
Awesome to win back to back games but uhhhh these rebounding numbers are just so bad. Hornets had 16 more rebounds than the Bucks. We're over 30 games in and still dealing with this….being average would make this team so much better. Maybe something will change….
for real, i never expected seeing kpj playing so mature, organizing, playing for the team, instead of running around doing fancy things with no real purpose.. hope he keeps that mindset and when he's back to his top shape, gets back to his scoring (they'll need him to) and he increases his effort on def. as i think he can (but as for now and with giannis back… !!). as for rollings.. the improvement is at least obvious (thought he has to get faster and stronger, esp for his high, to shine in this league) but for his first year actually..
so as it seems, there is "one guy" on that bench, who's doin a good job actually !. who knows, maybe he deserves a better job one day, if he wish…(?!!) the talent is there i believe. (guess everyone knows who i'm talking about… let's give this guy some flowers, you can see the result of his presence there with the first look. and.. at least, one good thing doc did for this team too.)
Go bucks.giannis almost has recorded from the injury is good news for the bucks and I mean is the reason that bucks win and he will make again bucks t look like a good team and as for him t look like the mvp.the statistics of giannis is the best of all the players of NBA why they stealing from him his trying to win everything again? because all the NBA want Giannis to their team but giannis is made for the bucks and I think never ever forever left Milwaukee
We Won 2 games in a row and giannis is back. GET PUMPED FRANK!!!!
