Episode 228: Giannis Returns

from Deer Diaries: A Milwaukee Bucks Podcast · host Brew Hoop

The Milwaukee Bucks had a positive week. With wins against the Indiana Pacers and Chicago Bulls sandwiching a loss to the Grizzlies. Kyle Jackson and Van discuss these games and the surprising return of Giannis Antetokounmpo from his calf injury. Then they discuss how Giannis can help the team, but Doc Rivers needs to do a better job at playing and utilizing the other players more. Then wonder why can't Doc play Ryan Rollins and KPJ together when the numbers suggest otherwise.Van throws some counterpoints to Kyle and Jack's discussion of trades the Bucks could make, along with the Bucks' draft history, comparing it to other successful, competent organizations. The three try to figure out if any potential trade targets are worth either taking on extra salary with or giving up a future first-round pick for. To wrap it up, Jackson builds a Star Wars LEGO set, Van goes to Turkey for the Warped Tour, and Kyle reviews the 2007 comedy Knocked Up. Thanks for listening, and Happy New Year.Van's Warped Tour: Athena Holigan https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AmjkeJ8MeBg
