    If we stay healthy we certainly should be in the mix for the title.

    Will be interesting to see if Giannis has improved his outside shooting or changed anything in the off season. Last year his free throw shooting was much improved.

    That's the nice thing about it. Who knows if or how many more titles the Bucks can win, but with Giannis at 27, players will want to play with him and as long as he stays in Milwaukee they should often be in the mix. That is all you can really ask for as a fan.

    Interesting notes and stats from this article. The Bucks are tweaking their philosophy when it comes to the opposing team's 3-point attempts. Brook Lopez showed up to training camp in possibly the best shape he has ever been in. The Bucks own a 71.7% winning percentage over the past 2 seasons (including playoffs) when each member of the Big 3 plays. EuroBasket helped Giannis progress even further in terms of how to play against a packed lane (no illegal defense/3 seconds in the lane). Team is excited for when Joe Ingles joins the team in December/January.
