Giannis sets the scoring mark, but a disappointing end to the week (04.05.2022)

Author: Milwaukee Journal Sentinel April 5, 2022 Duration: 45:12
 The Milwaukee Bucks enjoyed a great start to the week, with a nail-biting win over Philadelphia and Giannis Antetokounmpo setting the franchise scoring mark in a thrilling OT win in Brooklyn. But then, a punted battle with the Clippers and a disappointing loss to Dallas has them back in the fight for a top-two playoff positioning. With one week left, should we be scratching our heads that the Bucks are choosing rest over seeding? Who are the teams that are most concerning as potential first-round foes, does Giannis still have a chance to win MVP and is Jevon Carter in line for more minutes? Plus, One Quick Buck cheats a little to profile a Naismith Hall of Famer and What's Making Jim Mad.
