The Milwaukee Bucks continued their winning ways by going two for two last week. Here are five observations:
Splash Mountain has gotten off to a dry start from behind the arc, connecting on only 28.6 percent of his three-point attempts so far. It has yet to affect the gravity teams give him, but it’s only a matter of time until his man begins to creep closer and closer to the rim. Fortunately, he’s still a beast when it comes to protecting the paint on defense.
Lopez contests 16.3 shots per game (seventh-most in the NBA), most of them coming near the lane.
