Reactions: The Bad
- Juice and Bayless started together again. Even if they were better than Carter-Williams and Jabari Parker (which they probably aren’t), how is starting these two guys who will likely not be in Milwaukee one year from now owning the future? What are Jabari and MCW supposed to watch and learn if the offense is constant isolation threes (Juice and Jerryd combined to go 1-9 from long-range this game)?
- Ersan Ilyasova hit the dagger three in this game. Ersan. Ilyasova. Will the Bucks ever trade away someone and not be haunted by the decision afterward?
- The Pistons did not look particularly good on Friday night, and they still beat the Bucks handily. Detroit shot 41.5 percent from the field and actually got out-rebounded, and still had virtually no problems in handling Milwaukee. That’s not a good sign.
