Bucks reporter Jim Owczarski and host JR Radcliffe discuss a Bucks team that has won 8 of 10 games, including a win over Orlando on Tuesday that put the Bucks into the NBA Emirates Cup semifinals in Las Vegas. How has Damian Lillard changed his game to accommodate his new surroundings, and how has Giannis adjusted in turn? How big will this NBA Cup opportunity be for the Bucks? What's the review of Khris Middleton's first three games back? What's the deal with Andre Jackson Jr. starting but only playing a minimal amount of minutes.
