THINGS I’M LOOKING FOR

1. What’s left in the tank? The four main guys who are playing both games in this back to back played at least 40 minutes last night. They put in a lot of effort at home, so do they have anything left for the road on consecutive nights? This is their third game in four nights and fifth in seven. Winning this game would be super impressive.

2. Flowing through Porzingis: He didn’t play last night, so maybe he can carry the load for everyone. He’ll stress the Bucks defense, which has obviously struggled so far this season. If he can be the focal point of the offense, the normally lead scorers can play more of a supporting role. 

3. Bench contribution: Who on the bench will step up to help eat some minutes for the overtaxed starters? 

4. Jrue Holiday's revenge: It's his first game back in Milwaukee. I don't think he'll try to do too much, but you never know how this will impact him. 

Follow along with my thoughts as the game goes on. They’ll show up below and in the comments section, so hop in and share your opinion as well.
