Reactions: The Good

• Right at the top of this list has to be the play of Jared Dudley. Where it was a relief to simply see him on the floor in the last game out against the Pacers, the veteran made a real impact in this one. Dudley had 13 points and 5 rebounds on 6-10 shooting, a welcome shooting boost considering the loss of Chris Johnson to Utah.

• The Bucks held the Warriors below their season average of 109.8 points, if only just. They finished the game strong with an improved fourth quarter offensively after a pretty torrid opening 36 minutes. The fact that they only lost this one by 13 is pretty encouraging, considering that if they even just shot close to their average, this game would have gone right to the wire.

• Giannis may not have been quite as sensational as he has been in some of his other performances of late, and he could definitely have done with being more assertive. Saying that, he had yet another efficient shooting night though, his 4-6 from the field a cause for further optimism.
