00:00I want to go back to Saturday and the cup games and it's simple for me if you can't

00:08and no one can stop Giannis you're not beating this team in a big game he had 32 against

00:13the Hawks and it didn't matter how good the Hawks have been this year because they've

00:17been better in the box but they weren't better Saturday night and Milwaukee makes the final

00:21against the Thunder first talk about this game then we'll talk about the Thunders win

00:25over the Rockets.

00:27Yeah I mean what a performance especially in the fourth quarter by the Milwaukee boxing

00:31team let's be honest Pharrell that I've you know kind of questioned how they've looked

00:35but Pharrell I mean name a better team since the middle of November since Milwaukee they've

00:40lost two games and one of them they avenged which is that one 19-104 loss they had to

00:44Atlanta but to me it's about the fact that I've like I've seen Pharrell on the defensive

00:49end of the floor only giving up 102 points Giannis with a 32 and 32-14 a monster performance

00:57from a guy that let's be honest Pharrell when he's engaged and he's rebounding and doing

01:03everything and they're not atrocious at the three-point line they defend they give themselves

01:09a chance to win but as good as you got at a 34-14 and nine from Giannis you still got

01:1525 and 7 and 6 from Dean you got 16 from Brook Lopez you got almost a double-double

01:21out at Bobby Portis they're playing better basketball and it sets up a really interesting

01:27matchup versus OKC tomorrow night in Vegas.

01:30How about Middleton not mattering in that rotation right now like Bobby Portis matters

01:36more to the Bucs than Middleton does I know it's crazy to say but it's true.

01:40It is true but also Pharrell if you really think about it it was really a smart move

01:47by Doc Rivers putting Andre Jackson Jr. into the starting lineup why Pharrell they can't

01:55defend guards so now you put Andre Jackson you remember him from UConn 6'5 6'6 long

02:01wingspan can guard 1-2-3 now you can protect Dame guarding the perimeter and have Andre

02:09be the best the better defender and then you bring guys like Portis, Middleton, Trent

02:14Jr. off the bench that's a pretty good bench for Milwaukee right now let's see if Jackson

02:21can slow down probably a guy that could be the MVP this year and that's SGA tomorrow

02:25night.
