  • At some point you need to make an adjustment when your opponent is raining threes on you. I know that Sweeney handles the defense, but the buck stops with the coach. It’s his responsibility to make a drastic change when it’s clear the strategy you’re using will certainly lead to defeat.
  • This was Prunty’s last game as interim head coach before Kidd returns to the team Monday. With the change questions abound. Will Khris Middleton keep up his great play? Will JOB see more court? Will Giannis and Parker ever take another jumper? Find out next week on Milwaukee Bucks: The Return of the Kidd.
