Good morning and welcome to the NBA Daily for December 9th, 2024. Coming up, we had another big weekend in the NBA and I've got a bunch of questions like, are the Bucks back? We're going to take a look at the NBA Cup games coming up and make our picks. And we've got another edition of our all weekend team. Good morning everybody, good morning Zena, good morning S. Another big weekend in the NBA.
I honestly, I do not know how a normal fan would keep up with the NBA without listening to like three or four podcasts.
I was about to say, by listening to this podcast. We're the answer, Dave, we're the answer.
Shout out to the guys that are doing the podcast postgame. Pod, Maverick, all those guys doing crazy late nights so that I can stay informed on what's happening. Guys, another big weekend and I'm left with questions here on Monday morning about what's happening in the league. I'm going to start with the Milwaukee Bucks. Und ich frage euch einfach, sind die Bucks zurück?
Sie waren 8-2 in ihren letzten 10. Chris Middleton ist zurück. Giannis spielt auf einem MVP-Level. Was sagst du? Ja oder nein, Zena?
depends back to what when they went to the finals or back to what we expected them to be just because they have yannis and damian lillard and chris middleton that's where my question lies but i do think they're in a great position because as of late these last 10 games they have higher offensive production higher effective field goal higher true shooting percentage and what that tells me is they're taking better shots overall
Their defense has still been pretty decent, higher than top of the middle of the pack for the NBA. But overall, you've got another person to handle the ball in Chris Middleton. Damian Lillard's coming off screens, hitting his shots. And then Giannis has just been Giannis'n, if that's a verb, all season long anyways.
It is now. There you go.
