[@miketetteh95]

This man just gave me confidence

[@mariapekson7704]

That’s true what Dame has said. There’s a lot of factors affecting win or lose in a game. The mental and physical factors on long season, coach change style , energy level, etc.

[@jonmcmann6811]

you got Giannis shooting 3's that hit front rim when he should kick it to Lillard or Beasley at least when they miss it rims out.....Giannis shooting 3's is like an automatic turnover

Yeah I think I agree. Dame and giannis need to revert to whatever what going on offensively under griffin. They were leading the offense by what worked for them. Defensively, they can apply the simple changes doc has encouraged

[@mosesofgod6593]

Dame played hard. The high expectations for him to be perfect are no longer in place. He just needs to relax and do his thing. And, makes smart passes.

[@rolandeskye9330]

This is leadership. It’s always quietly confident. I also wonder what the Bucks record would be now if the majority of the offense ran through him. Dame is such an intelligent player. It seems unwise not to capitalize on that. #FearTheDeer

Honestly the Bucks have been through more tribulations and trials than anyone else in the league. You gotta give them credit for being 2 seed in the east, when you think about it. They'll continue to be what they'll do good or average i don't think there's any genuine bad

[@scottborenstein8291]

It’s concerning that things are still being figured out, at this point the playoffs are what count, hopefully they will gel for the playoffs. Playing the Celtics next won’t be easy for them as a team, I hope they can finish the season without injury and with more confidence as a team. Playing in the NBA is very difficult no matter who the player or team is.

They really need to play off of Dame and let him get hot and help the others get to their spots as soon as he gets to be doubled-tripled team out there. Giannis is so dominant inside but a turnover machine

[@elizaschaeffer34]

Dame turns it over just as much. Giannis turnovers typically come off offensive fouls or Giannis passing the ball to a guy with butter fingers. Try not to blame Giannis when he isn't part of the problem.

Damian cried that Adrian Griffin wasn't running his offense (making him the main ball handler) so the Bucks HAD TO fire Griffin. Damian Lillard wanted Doc who makes him the center of everything. With Doc River, Dame is STILL BRICKING. Doc is 1000% a Dame guy. You see how he's always talking about how Dame needs to be comfortable...Well, have fun. The offense was running through Giannis for yrs but y'all changed that. Even under Griffin Giannis was THE GUY but everyone wants to be THE GUY. Want things to run through you like you even know how to run anything. Give Giannis the ball and let him make the decisions. You hear how Doc is running the Dames Portland offense...And Giannis too is responsible for getting HARDHEAD who wants to come in and COMPETE with him. Why bring in a dude like that?
