NBA Draft

[Da Coach]

In the 4th and final scheduled Summer League game, the Milwaukee Bucks team beat the Dallas Mavericks 100-89. A.J. Green bounced back from two poor games and shot pretty well. He scored 15 points off the bench, was 5-9 overall, and 5-9 from three. The Bucks finished 3-1 in the scheduled games, tied for the best record, and will likely play one more game on Sunday.

Javon Freeman-Liberty played for the Bulls yesterday and had 2 points on 1-5 shooting.

The NBA playing style has just changed a lot. There has been a lot bigger focus on perimeter play, big men just aren't as important as before..

Yes, definitely. NBA teams still want size but they want their big men to be mobile and play a wing position as well as posting up.
If you look at the teams that have made the NBA Finals over the past decade and a half, it's hard to find a single team that was built around
a true low-post, back-to-the-basket center like we used to see all the time in the Finals with Russell, Wilt, Jabbar, Ewing, Shaq or Duncan.
The teams that have the best big men in the NBA (Giannis, Anthony Davis, Embiid, Towns, Jokic, Vucevic) either utilize them largely as wing players
and not strictly low post guys, or they strangely are not among the last 30 teams in the NBA Finals.
Too many teams are dominated by scoring wing players who don't ever look to feed the low post, so Kofi's gonna starve down there unless he can
defend and rebound well enough to create his own opportunities.

A.J. Green had another bad game in the Bucks' final game Sunday. He started the game, but went scoreless in 17 minutes of play. He was 0-3 from the floor in the Bucks' 80-69 loss to the Toronto Raptors.
