The energy in the arena tonight was unbelievable, was crazy.

And it feels good.

You know, we're happy that we're able to come to see it and Milwaukee.

We're happy that we are going to the third round and we're happy that, you know,

the people are into it.

I don't think I've ever seen people of Milwaukee be so excited about basketball.

Welcome back to another episode of the Ike Bucks podcast. My name is K.J. Ixted and the Milwaukee

Bucks have gone up three to one in the series versus the Chicago Bulls. There was trash talk. There was chippiness. There was some questionable refereeing. There was quite a bit of falling over by a certain team. But Janice, Grayson Allen, Drew Holiday, and the supporting cast put the Bulls to bed in the fourth game of the series. It's going to be an exciting show today. I can't wait to talk about it. I'm joined with my co-host Alex. Alex, how you doing? KJ, I'm doing great Bucks fans. I'm feeling like Bobby Portis pointing at my ring finger as I'm walking around my place because the champions are back. They've got the swagger. They've got the attitude. Bobby is set in the tone. Janice is the leader. Grayson Allen is the man on fire, the torch. It is exciting out there, and I'm excited to talk about it on this podcast today. Thanks for having me. Yeah, Bucks fans, I don't know how many of you maybe have seen one of Kanye West's live concerts in which he was unveiling Donda, part one and part

two. And he started off in the childhood home that was burning down. And Kanye was actually

in a special suit where he was literally on fire. And that was Drayson Allen today. I know

Alex threw up a couple tweets on Ike Bucks where basically Grace and Allen was pretty much acting like he was on fire.

He had the hot hand.

And I thought it was awesome.

Like not just the fact that he got hot in terms of 10 for 12 from the field, six for seven from three, one for one from the line.

But he was cutting and slashing and playing defense, playing with the mojo that honestly looked

like a star out there.

You know, like everyone's talking about a pool for Golden State Warriors and rightly so.

Nobody's going to be talking about Grayson like that.

But let's just say we did notice, I mean, Alex, I don't know if you want to expand on the

man on fire right there.

Caruso, the man underwater. He had zero points in 17 minutes today. Grace and Alan got the better of him. He looked great, Cage. He's filling in for, you know, Chris. I think what happened is when Chris Middleton went down, Janus became de facto leader. You know, everyone looks towards Janus. Not saying that he always isn't the de facto leader, but sometimes he can defer to Middleton, you know, and, uh, but now that's not the case. Connington, you know, he kind of just does him. He is another solid performance, but Grayson Allen is this wild card. And today he went off. He was pure six of seven from three, 27 points off the bench. like you said at Cage, he should be getting talked about because that's not a normal performance. That's huge in the playoffs. And that's pretty much why the Bucks ended up winning by 24 here in Game 4, really, you know, taking command of the series. It took the bench to show up, and the bench did in both games. Yeah, I just want to add on top of that. I remember game two, the bucks lost by four, and Pat and Grayson had a combined, I think

it was six points in like 40-some minutes.
