You are exactly right about getting to the free throw line able to make something happen when your shots not falling from the outside and you need a bucket you know they're going to either have to follow you or are you going to make the shot
I think the Bucks should treat Thomas like they used to treat Lillard (play calls),
Always good to hear from Eric.Pete nance has put on some muscle
The biggest thing i like about both dieng and thomas is their basketball IQ they make the game easier😊
Dude only thing that matters is winning! Winning solves EVERYTHING!💯
Jericho looks better because he's getting easy lobs from KPJ. Lots of Bucks fans seem to not like KPJ, but Jericho is setting the same screens and rolling to the rim like he has all season. The difference is that KPJ is setting him up. Kevin is a better distributor than Rollins. I like them both, but they have different skill sets.
He had 19pts, 11rebs and 4blocks from the three position and you're still whining. 😑
I don't trust this coaching staff at all when it comes to maximizing the roster and getting the most out of players. Thankfully they have so much talent on the team that we just may get lucky though.
(And it seemed like such an obvious blunder with Pete Nance. It's actually comical how we have people like the Amazon announcers thinking he's some recent pickup)
He or Parker didn't need to get to the free throw line! I don't want to watch free throws! Score the ball. That is the bottom line. No one gets to the line in the NBA. Bucks dont gets calls. It's about pace and tempo and being able to FINISH. What are you talking about. In fact, when Giannis gets to the line it ruins the offense because first he cannot hit free throws consistently and it slows them down and slows down the flow of the game. What are you people talking about Free throws for???
Bucks don't need Giannis until he is 100% healthy…period. I think many of you overate him. The Bucks can get back to the playin without him. Get him healthy. His zeal is going to be his undoing. I say do not let him play, but he will play and tear that Achilles like Dame did and then we are stuck and screwed. It is just like I said 5 years ago going into that Miami series, clam down. Slow down. Do not go kamikaze against the Heat, they will hurt you and use your aggressiveness against yourself. he stayed true to himself and was stubborn and got hurt from the last 3-4 years on. I would not bring back Giannis at all. Just like I would not have allowed him to play for his National Team this summer being hurt! Bucks kiss him too much. But you all rip me. Okary, okay. We'll see.
I agree about adding strength the same I would advise for KPJ and Rollins. Teams are playing Bucks guards very physically. Jordan and Kobe both added muscle and strengthened their bodies. Giannis should show them. It also reduces injuries.
Cam Thomas wouldn’t except his role because the Nets are awful buddy.
He was there best scorer. On the Bucks he doesn’t have to be.
Agreed on Giannis needing 5 less minutes a game and some weight off his shoulders. He's very stubborn and would play at 50% if the coaches let him and the team really needed it.
was it the coaching
Ousmane Dieng the instant impact the bucks needs
I swear everything and everyone the Thunder touch turns to gold..
Eric Nehm is spot on. Bucks is still terrible.
AJ Green,Dieng trade, acquisition of KPJ, Cam Thomas signing…Too me Dieng was really good, because the KPJ was a no brainer given his talent vs Marjon, these players are making up for the lack of development/draft picks they've wasted or didn't have
I hope Eric has a line to Coaching and Management and share some of these points with them. They should develop Dieng like that.
All I can say about these 2 steals. The bucks have made recently from chicago via o k c & brooklyn is thank you basketball gods for letting other teams?Do our picks that we can't do ourselves but smart enough to pick them up on the low i've never heard of the guy from the bulls. How a guy that talented flies under the radar is Beyond me, he just got to the bucks.And he was playing like a veteran as for cam, he was lighting, the bucks up 3/4 years ago.And i'm like, he's not that good.He can't be he'll be out of the league he's just a flash in the pan.Thank god I was wrong
The 80's Lakers, Celtics, 76ers, and Bucks had multiple talented players who could make plays. Their coaches got them to play together in ways that each could shine while making their teams successful.
Giannis' style of sprinting from baseline to baseline constantly was great when he was young. He's not young now, basketball career speaking. He and the Bucks' coaches need to make him more of a half court player to extend his career, or he might lose years from injuries, particularly Achilles.
He should do calisthenics. Would want to see him too bulked and mess with his shot. Focus on core strength he will be great 💪🏾
