Pat with 10/9/3/1/1
Billy actually did have more actions for him for a few possessions too, good thing to see. He looked like he belonged in this game, which is progress
after what we've watch the past month & a 1/2, I'm a bit shocked to see them turn up the defense and lock in to a competitive level
Demar has done this all season, so we shouldnt be surprised, but its also tough to expect it nightly in the playoffs
Vuce has to hit his open jumpers and Zach needs to find a way to contribute with scoring. The knee is a thing obviously, but we wont win this series if he cant get going for stretched throughout the series.
Caruso has been unreal defensively. Overall we need the role players (Alex Pat Coby DJJ) to hit these open looks at a decent rate
If Middleton, who is basically the Bucks closer, is out with that mcl sprain this series might go longer than we anticipated. More opportunities for lavine to have a few special moments. Wouldn't be shocked if lavine gives us a 45 pt gem in a game in Chicago.I really wanted zach to have a defining performance tonight, but he was just good. obviously demar is getting all the accolades and rightfully so, but I still wanna see zach go ham like he used to in the first half of the season.
Think it was effort, also think it was confidence. Somewhere in game 1 you could see it in the body language they finally realized they could at least hang with the Bucks. Once they got there and it wasn't a 30 pt wipe out they started playing with more effort.just goes to show u that the defense we've seen the last 30 games is all about lack of effort, cuz it's been night and day between the regular season and playoffs thus far.
