Good point. The Bucks had chemistry when Holiday was here. Not a knock on Lillard, just an observation.I agree. He's mouthy but he can back it up with his play. He's in the same category as Jrue Holiday in my opinion. Halliburton scores more but their brand of play is so similar. They're not selfish and see the floor well.
I don't think the average NBA fan really sees the inside makings of each game, and what it takes as a blend of players out there to win consistently. With only 5 guys playing at one time and usually using 3 or 4 subs at most during key games, the chemistry is either there or you get hammered like the Bucks did by the Pacers, which quite honestly, was not that difficult to predict considering how both teams were playing at the end of the season.
Sounds like the Bucks and Giannis will be together for the foreseeable future. Horst has a huge, but not impossible challenge to find guys who can play together, offense and defense. There are some pieces in place, certainly not all.
But how was the hapless Horst extended......? Don't get me started.
