Grades: San Antonio Spurs vs. Milwaukee Bucks – Game #45

[spurs10]

Giannis two-hand shoved Wemby from behind after his putback dunk in the third quarter.


Wouldn't surprise me if Paul saw that and returned the favor later on.

Ahh the plot thickens.

CP3 has always been a dirty player. No point in trying to deny simply because he's spending a year with the Spurs.

I call that high-IQ play by CP3. Giannis has been bullying Wemby, tgrowing elbow, and staring down Wemby after a dunk. Giannis was mad because Wemby blocked him twice

This topic almost deserves a new thread. Some of these antics can really swing a game or a series (Robert Horry for instance)

I liked what I heard post game from Wemby etc...

Wemby trying to be more vocal on defense going forward

It was time tbh.

Just imagine if we eliminate the defensive low IQ situations where they overhelp and leave the 3pts open or foul their guy in the paint in the paint when Wemby is on him etc

Next step, vocal vs PATFO.

Sochan did a great job on Lillard. He was very effective with going over the screen and containing Damian.

Sochan has quietly had a great defensive season. He doesn't produce stocks though and isn't a disruptive player. He just stays glued to them.

Reminds me a bit of Bruce Bowen when he's really locked in and the matchup is good for him. A bit, mind you.

- needs a corner 3 that's straight money
- needs to show he can guard larger opponents, including securing defensive rebounds and not just perimeter matchups consistently
- ball denial simply isn't in the same realm as Bowen, but few are
