One thing I will say as a Hawks fan. It’s dangerous to look at this team by the numbers. They were injured for half of the season so far. Those bad injury games are skewing the numbers down.
Hawks fan here near Tokyo, just a few months ago helped my daughter move her family to LA with a 6 yr old baller, dressed in lakers purple and gold since he was 2 yrs old
We just have to add a big like Robert Williams and or id give picks for the next 10 years to GS for Kuminga, with Kuminga and Giannis we'd be good for the next 10 years anyway, plus you can get some good undrafted free agents, plus the Bucks have good other younger guys
What annoys me is that, everyone seem to forget how good the Bucks are, yes they aging but we know this team can go on a 18-2 games win streak, Giannis being healthy alone makes us a force
They are good but until they prove that they can get that 18-2 and beat good teams they are shaky. I was more confident last year that they could beat good teams, I had little confidence they could beat bad teams. This year it’s the opposite I don’t have the same trust when they play any team above .500
Bucks need to take advantage of their advantages. Brook shooting 9 threes not an advantage. Our size Atlanta is long we are big. Short rope for Brook and Bobby throwing up bricks not getting back on defense.
After watching the Hawks totally dismantle the NY Knicks.. Man/Woman 😳 I don't know about this one.. The Bucks don't do much of anything well, but miss shots, ignore rebs, turn the ball over and ignore their height advantages. I hope they will play physical and play bully ball in the paint and the shooters actually make shots.
@@92KM1 Capela had 5 fouls in 19 minutes. That was definitely not a part of the plan. A lot of these "star" players are only stars because Adam Silver doesn't let you defend them hard without fouling out by halftime.
Simple idea to take away transition points. Stop turning the ball over at the top of the key on lazy passes. The idea of wanting to not play when you have the opportunity to win a championship (even if it’s the cup) is a losing mentality. If you want to sit a game you can sit the last game of the season
If the Bucks Can control the fast pace, fast break style of the hawks ,they will beat the hawks.. esp the hawks right now is on the roll esp their spacing is so good.. if the bucks can defend that ,they will win But Still Bucks win by 6
Hawks have a good squad, but they don't have a "Greek Freak " he's about to school and get the Hawks Big's in foul trouble....Giannis is about to go crazy....y'all know how he gets when something is on the line,....🍿👍🏾.....🔥👍🏾
it is time to trade/let go of brook lopez he's to slow and taking unnecessary 3's, too slow to switch on defense.. they need to trade him for a younger center that can defend and move fast.. Brook is old..
If... nobody is gonna want take on a 36yr old brookes 25mil contract for a 2031 2cnd round incentive. With all the 2cnd aprin complications. i dont see it
@@kimathi9307only bucks fans think brook is no good, every other fanbase would love brook, he would maximize a mvp big man like Joel, Jokic, AD, I don’t understand bucks fans sometimes
You guys are a little long in the tooth, and OO matches well against Gannis, Dyson should be guarding Dame, Atlanta has the advantage, we've had you guys since Dubai, Popeye used to scare me, not anymore 😂😂😂😂😂 you guys went all in on dame now you guys have 4 impact players because of the cap
Ur delusional, I’ll come back to this nonsense take after bucks blowout the hawks, hawks are good tho I like them but no they don’t match up well with the bucks
When was the last time y'all won a championship 😂😂😂😂😂Maaan be silent 😅😅😅. Giannis is about to school the Hawks Big's...im not worried about this game..I promise you Bucks will come out victorious 🔥👍🏾
@TerranceHandy yeah, like he did the last game 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 you do realize we broke your win streak fuck Milwaukee, Gannis, bug eye, dame and Lopez won't win today 😂😂😂😂😂
If Gianni’s was hurt I think it’s a easy win for the bucks the bucks play harder when he’s not there just have to get them playing like that when everyone’s healthy

This will be a good barometer for where the bucks are in the east
Not really
I agree with you. The Hawks is a strong contender in the EC.
Facts
And a barometer of how the bucks deal with athleticism
As a Hawks fan, I have to save all the other fan bases. Milwaukee has the kindest. Looking forward to the game Saturday. Our matchups are always fun.
Elite basketball knowledge and analysis.
Im excited for this rematch! Hawks look good again, long athletic and young
1st time hearing the Locked on Bucks podcast. Excellent job on your analysis of the match-up. That's coming from a Hawks fan.
As a hawks fan do not be excited about being up on us after the 1Q we usually have slow starts
How did that work out for ya
@ we were right there. Free throws lost us this game. It wasn’t until the last minute where the game was definitively over
Excited for this game!
😂😂 Love the Intercontinental Championship reference!!
Dont sleep on Dyson

Praying for robert williams
Kris has played with Giannis his whole career, I’ve heard,and there is a really close relationship, might be key .

Giannis shot 26 free throws last game. Adam Silver is a bucks fan..
@@kaii231giannis is unstoppable is what you mean, he’s getting fouled on most of his drives
@@kaii231 I’m pretty sure they were fouling on purpose

@@kaii231 It has nothing to do with Adam Silver and more to do with defenders being helpless.

Giannis went crazy on dec 3rd and the hawks won the game in Milwaukee. I like my Hawks chances on a neutral court. #TrueToAtlanta
@the_dixon_way that 1 time huh🤣🤣..ok good luck and let's enjoy
@@the_dixon_waysame
Yes let Lopez go and get a center that plays just like Hakeem Olajuwon.The problem where to find him.
Refs gave giannis 26 free throws in the last one. We know who the nba wants to win. Hawks have to come extra hard.
Dude it’s Giannis💀the scariest rim runner in the league no shit he’s gonna get to the free throw line
Vegas wont be so nice with these calls Giannis will have to shoot the ball
Exactly. I knew when Giannis was shooting free throws in the first 13 seconds of the game that we (Hawks) were in for a fight.
Come extra hard?? Just delete ur comment
it is time to trade/let go of brook lopez he's to slow and taking unnecessary 3's, too slow to switch on defense.. they need to trade him for a younger center that can defend and move fast.. Brook is old..
As a hawks fan Brook has been torching us since he was a net lol ima be happy the day he leaves y’all
If... nobody is gonna want take on a 36yr old brookes 25mil contract for a 2031 2cnd round incentive. With all the 2cnd aprin complications. i dont see it
that young center also NEEDS to be able to space the floor next to giannis, while also being an elite shot blocker which is hard to replace
Brook is still elite defender. And he can go off for 25 on any given night. Hawks too small to guard him 8n the post.
