Episode 237: Fool's Gold

About this episode

The episode discusses the Milwaukee Bucks' recent performance struggles and the implications of Giannis' return.

The real joy of the Milwaukee Bucks winning eight of 10 was the friends we made along the way. After their best stretch of the season, the Bucks have lost three straight games in blowout fashion. Jackson and Jack return to break down Giannis' first game back, the inexplicable rotation decisions, Doc Rivers’ role in this sudden downturn, and where they go from here. They also talk about how the Bucks' lack of pace and defense is hurting them, and how that compares to the Bucks of old. Jack then delves deep into the insanity that is the Australian Football League draft.
