You’re wrong on sochan, we wouldn’t have allowed the damn wizard to score 130 points on us if he was there. He’s missing on defense. He was doing too much because Vassell wasn’t there.
Tbh I strongly believe he does fix all the problems the bucks have offensively. A trio of dame khris and giannis offensively is insane still. Doesn’t fix the defense at all though
Middleton isn't the same player before the injury, people base their opinions off of one playoff series and forget the entire regular season last year where he was in and out of the lineup all the time when he was in the Bucks weren't some world beaters by any means
The bucks arent just missing 2 guys. It seems like no one understands how big khris is for this team and hes been out all season so far and ryan rollins missed this game also and hes been stepping up defensively lately
@@RD-zx6pyjrue* was ass for the bucks and they’d be even worse if they had jrue instead of dame rn. He’s a great 5th option. Definitely one of the worst 2nd options possible
Middleton is not the answer to the current problems of the Bucks. Middleton is not the offensive and defensive system of the team. He's just a guy who can put up big numbers. A guy who can put up big numbers is not gonna fix issues in your asinine system. That's why Middleton coming back will not help the Bucks get more wins if the team can't even figure out what the f- they're doing with the players they have. Bucks are literally at the bottom of the barrel in both Offensive and Defensive rating. They're shit right now and it's definitely not because Middleton is missing with an injury
@@Law-of-EnTropyare you serious? Of course Middleton will bring them more wins. They won’t win a finals or anything, but regular season will improve when he gets back
I disagree with the jeremy take having someone he share the ball with may look bad right now but if victor manage to improve doing this right now, he will be scary when he have a star co-star. I don't want him to be like the stars of bucks where they don't know how to play when they need to share the ball
As a spurs fan, castle is sneakily becoming our 2nd favorite guy on the team. fans around the league havent noticed him yet but he'll be an sga like guy in a few years
You got it right. Seems like the Spurs are having him take a bunch of 3s (Pop already said they WANT him taking a lot of 3s) so that he figures this part of his game out. Meanwhile, he's gradually building the strength he lacks so that, in a year or two, he will be strong enough to focus on his post and midrange game. He has the talent. Why NOT make him a French Army Knife?
Crazy how much we differ on Lopez lol. People forget that that dude is N I C E. He’s an excellent borderline allstar player and imo one of the bucks BIGGEST issues over the last 5 years has been their unwillingness to expand his role especially when they are dealing with injuries to other players. All non Gianni’s minutes should be brook post up parties
Crazy night of course the guys you mentioned and Lebrons 3rd straight triple double D Mitch and Tatum each were I think 1 assist/rebound off a triple double, McCain 34 points, Jalen Williams racking up his stat sheet, Zach Levine and DeAaron Fox each also had solid games. Just overall amazing performances across the league.
you hatin :/ even the teams who have been beating the pistons have been doing it just barely. the Knicks are the only team to beat us convincingly so far this season.
If you're a Pistons fan, like myself, you have to get used to this type of disrespect until at least mid-season... I'm thinking more like next season, actually. We won 14 fucking games last season, so you can't be expecting non-fans to be paying much attention and going with last seasons narrative
Wow still finds a way to hate on the bucks didn’t have their 2nd 3rd and fourth options and the back up pg was out no dame no khris no bobby and no Ryan Rolland’s
Pistons were also missing their 2nd and 3rd best players and other rotational pieces, while they’re also supposed to be much worse than the bucks. No Jaden Ivey, No Ausar Thompson, no Tim Hardaway, No Simone Fonteccio, and Isaiah Stewart got ejected. So no excuses
@@obi3924 your right if Simone Fontecio could have brought his 6ppg on 37%fg the pistons would have won. Also why did Stewart get ejected was it because he tried to assassinate Giannis Mid air?
@@jimmyscobie6086 Fonteccio is still one of their better wing defenders and would’ve started over Ron Holland. And you mentioned Ryan Rollins, who averages 3 points. And I don’t condone the Stewart foul at all, but Stewart is statistically one of the best Giannis defenders in the nba. You can look it up. I’m just saying, you mentioned the bucks missing key guys, but the pistons were missing nearly half their rotation, on a team that’s already supposed to be bad.
I've been skeptical of Wemby's shot diet and Spurs fans basically told me I'm not seeing the bigger picture.Maybe they're right. We'll see. Nice 50 piece.
I didn't know kat was the only one who's supposed to be playing defense for the Knicks though😮😮. Really though I think the other Knicks players should be more under the hot seat for how not well they're playing offensively and defensively for the team this year especially Og and Josh hart
The other players are not playing center and that is by far the most impactful defensive position. So if you have a center that's a big negative on defense, there's not a lot you can do.
Eh Hart and og were playing good defense while hartenstein was the center. The center generally anchors the defense by contesting shots at the rim. KAT can’t do that very well. Defense is team oriented. With the exception of some weird cases like wemby on the spurs last year, one singular player won’t have too much impact. Alex caruso didn’t make the bulls an insanely good defense, even though this year we see him making the thunder defense great. Wemby is also a center. Wing and guard defenders generally don’t win dpoy, and it seems they have set the precedent that centers and bigs will win the all defense first team while guards and wings win second. So while KAT is a great offensive piece, how can you ask your wing defenders stop the 3 ball if your big allows 90% of shots inside?
@@myboithomas but they knew he wasn’t a defensive big, that’s why they need their defensive wings to not play like shit. He’s not horrible defensively when he’s not getting hung out to dry by his perimeter defenders.
@@wolfiewiggins2810 He is horrible defensively man, that's the whole point. The only reason he was ok last season was because he wasn't playing as the center and had the DPOY. This year he's been horrible on defense and will continue to if he's anchoringthe defense. The other guys can't do much beause again, they are not playing center.
That's like if I traded for Steph Curry and got mad at him for not being Magic Johnson. Just because they play the same position doesn't mean it's their fault if the GM doesn't understand that.
You don’t want wemby to end up like Chet by going in the paint while his body isn’t ready and getting injured. Let him develop his shot and he will start developing more in the paint when he will be physically ready.
Bit harsh on the Bucks. Yes, they are looking very grim. But, what? 5 players missing on an already thin roster? Of course they needed 59 from Giannis when their second and third best (on paper) available players were a 37 year old Lopez and Patrick Bin Laden Connaughton
I’m glad you also think KAT driving to the basket looks bad. It looks like he’s running in sagging skinny jeans and shoes that are 3 sizes too big. He is a hooper though
The Sochan hate is crazy he’s been a legitimately really good player this season. He was LAST season too once he moved back to his natural position on the court. He’s definitely a major part of the future of this team, and I’m getting really tired of people ignorantly slandering him
Sochan also is a great release valve in the dunker’s spot or as a cutter when Wemby is drawing multiple defenders, a la Aaron Gordon. Not saying he’s on that level (yet) but the playstyle this season has been similar. And absolutely missing him on defense. It’s just really shortsighted to bash on Sochan
Kat hasn’t been a disaster on defense yes he’s not a good rim protector but I think he’s serviceable, most of the defensive lapses are the guys not used to playing with eachother and honestly Mikal being awful on ball
Basketball these days looks like streetball because refs dont call traveling, carry overs, nothing anymore. The old school pros actually had to play by "the rules" in this aspect
Idk if the nets would be a good fit, Nic Claxton cant hit 3s, the spacing would bad. Plus the Nets would have to give up several first round picks and their young players. Plus they just got done with the whole superstar era, I think they are content to tank and build Through the draft @414lilJay
The spurs started the season without Vassell and Wemby was out of rhythm, as a result the offense was rough. Was Sochan doing too much? yeah but it was supplemental, the offense was not generating and he had to make up for it. Like your take is not really objective, do something about your hate boner for Sochan it’s annoying
Bro the Knicks better figure this shit out, cause they have been trash and they gave up way to much for bridges, massive gamble. I hope it's just growing pains 🤷♂️
I think 3/3 from coby white and 0/2 from Ron Holland changes the narrative a lot. Instead of "KAT played well but was cooked on defense" we might talk about how he needed to bail out NY with his 46. Same with Giannis, we wouldn't talk about his defense but how they just lost to detroit despite Giannis going off and how bad they've recently become
Why. Are. We. Still. Talking. Bad. On. Jeremy. Sochan. Wemby was inefficient in those games and Jeremy was one of the few players playing well for that team
Sochan needs to come off the bench, he’s great and they need the defense off the bench…. Wemby can dunk with two steps from the three point line…. So why not have him shoot the three? The alien magic is: 40+ percent on three pointers so you have to respect it and rim dominance…. Perhaps a sky hook, perhaps a nice floater and post up game…. But he’s not gonna bang with guys, that will just get him hurt
for the last years teh bucks been on the same stupid shot selection , taking early threes without ball or off-ball movement ... and stuff like that, and ofc D.Ham and D.Rivers wont help the issue-.- I just cant with them anymore, Giannis has to switch teams , still makes almost no sense how they won the ship back then and then trade holiday who was the piece that brought the team together
You're Bucks takes have been pretty horrible, inaccurate, and ignorant. However, the idea that Khris doesn't make them dramatically better when all the lineup data from last year suggets that is the year (on both ends btw) might be your worst one. There are so many things you've stated just in this video alone that are inaccurate,and could get picked apart one by one. Also Dame and Giannis have actually been playing well together. Giannis has been a good screener this year. Dame is still needing to improve as a pick and roll playmaker, but he's getting a little better.

Talk about him on your own channel.
50 in 32 minutes is crazy
I thought you were talking about views for a second, I am getting very annoyed about these comments
it wasnt in 32. he played 5-6 minutes later without scoring. He did it in 26 minutes. 26. minutes. Ridiculous
@@arvidbjoerk5307 damn I didn't get to really watch the game but that's amazing
he reached that mark in 26-28 mins however... whilst being the best defender in the building that night... league is cooked yall
It was 26* minutes. He came back for an extra 6 minutes to close out the game since the Wizards came back.
You’re wrong on sochan, we wouldn’t have allowed the damn wizard to score 130 points on us if he was there. He’s missing on defense. He was doing too much because Vassell wasn’t there.
He is a well known hater of Sochan and fails to realize the impact he has on the defensive side of the ball
Bucks miss Middleton as well. Also just because some player starts, doesn't make him 'starter caliber'.
I say this as a bucks fan
Middleton hasn’t been healthy in years and I don’t count him as a starter anymore since he doesn’t play
@@shoeless1137 last 2 playoffs he's played every game and played extremely well so eh. he's there when it counts
Kinda wild that he’s missed so much time lately that someone who covers basketball for a living seemingly forgot he exists.
I don't think Middleton is saving the Bucks by any means, but he still ought to have been mentioned.
Tbh I strongly believe he does fix all the problems the bucks have offensively. A trio of dame khris and giannis offensively is insane still. Doesn’t fix the defense at all though
With Middleton back they might be able to just out score teams
Middleton isn't the same player before the injury, people base their opinions off of one playoff series and forget the entire regular season last year where he was in and out of the lineup all the time when he was in the Bucks weren't some world beaters by any means
He's cooked😐
For the longest time i thought rusty and wendigoon were the same person
😂
Wendigoon doesn't swear lol
The bucks arent just missing 2 guys. It seems like no one understands how big khris is for this team and hes been out all season so far and ryan rollins missed this game also and hes been stepping up defensively lately
Khris is done, they gave Jrue away and now they're dunzo.
@@RD-zx6pyjrue* was ass for the bucks and they’d be even worse if they had jrue instead of dame rn. He’s a great 5th option. Definitely one of the worst 2nd options possible
@xeonbladev18 I've always thought that spelling was funny and I dunno man, Dame has looked weak sauce as a Buck.
@@RD-zx6py this season? He’s been great so far. Last season he was pretty bad but still I think better than what people gave him credit for
@@xeonbladev18yeah, Jrue doing better as a 4th/5th option than Dame as a 2nd option really made people think Jrue was better.
On Wemby, pump fakes from 3 don't work if he doesn't shoot more of them. The two go hand in hand.
You never fail, Rusty, to slander Sochan.
Sochan really isn’t that good and him averaging as many shots per game as Wembanyama is criminal
@@patrick05Morgan I just disagree. Simple as.
Cause Sochan is a bum lol
Rusty Buckets, C'mon!😂 Khris Middleton missing does not hurt the Bucks? Research, Research, Research, etc.😂
literally was so confused how he was acting like middleton doesnt exist
Yeah i disagree with him here too. Middleton is better than people give him credit for.
it absolutely hurts them but his return doesn’t immediately guarantee a ring, he himself isn’t enough to fix the mess that the bucks got themselves in

5 first round picks for a role player may have been a slight overpay
Why. Are. We. Still. Talking. Bad. On. Jeremy. Sochan. Wemby was inefficient in those games and Jeremy was one of the few players playing well for that team
Who is Khris Middleton to you, if not a starter, a bench contributor, or a third or fourth option?
