On the latest episode of Timeout with Ti, host Ti Windisch sat down with Adam McGee to talk all things Milwaukee Bucks.

Hey there. It had been a while since I got to talk about the Milwaukee Bucks on a podcast, so I decided to have my good friend and site co-expert from Behind the Buck Pass Adam McGee on Timeout with Ti to talk Bucks.

After winning six straight games, the Bucks dropped an ugly one to the Memphis Grizzlies on Monday night. Adam and I started off by talking about the streak dying an ugly death in Memphis.

We then moved to the assigning blame phase of sports fandom, although as Adam reminded us all later on in the pod he’s actually an Atlanta Hawks fan. We spoke about Milwaukee’s two-center lineup, weird rotations and the season going forward.

Adam and I also talked about how the rotation could change if the Bucks qualify for the 2017 NBA Playoffs, and the importance of Thon Maker, Greg Monroe and John Henson going forward. Bucks fans have had problems with Henson, but he might be important!

We touched on Milwaukee’s injury problems as well, although not for too long because that stuff is depressing. After doing a lot of Bucks coverage, Adam and I decided to talk about two young players he wrote about recently: Nikola Jokic and Jamal Murray.

Jokic is so much fun to watch, and although Adam and I disagree on assessing his defensive capabilities there’s no question that he’s one of the most interesting players in the NBA going forward.

Adam wrote that Jamal Murray looks like the new Stephen Curry, and after watching Murray ball out lately it’s becoming hard to disagree. Murray vs. Devin Booker was a fun discussion question we tackled as well.

There’s also a passionate fight about the merits of the NBA All-Star game in there somewhere for your listening pleasure. As always, please let me know how you felt about the latest episode of Timeout with Ti, either on Twitter, iTunes or Stitcher.

Also I would be remiss to forget to shout out Joey Burbs! Joey provides the intro and outro music to Timeout with Ti, and the pod would be exceptionally bland without him.
