The Milwaukee Bucks prepare to add Joe Ingles to the floor this week, roughly 10 months after ACL reconstructive surgery. How will Milwaukee's offseason addition impact what the Bucks have going on? Bucks reporters Jim Owczarski and Lori Nickel join host JR Radcliffe to discuss that and more about the team with the top record in the NBA. Milwaukee beats the Warriors, suffers a burn-the-tape moment against Memphis and then downs the Jazz without Giannis and Khris. Is there any method to the madness

The Milwaukee Bucks won three of four last week, led by a resurgent Giannis Antetokounmpo, who perhaps was pretty fired up after Ladder Gate. Bucks reporter Jim Owczarski and host JR Radcliffe discuss his play, the overall improvement of the team, the role Bobby Portis has played this season and the likelihood that some players on the roster (George Hill, Wesley Matthews, Jordan Nwora) will be here at the end of the year. Grayson Allen is suddenly unstoppable, apparently. Plus: What's Making Jim

Brewers reporter Jim Owczarski and host JR Radcliffe discuss Milwaukee's 2-0 start to the year, including a big shot from Wesley Matthews, Giannis being Superman again, a lame (but since rescinded) technical foul, Jevon Carter starting and early returns on a new look defense. They also speak a bit about the trade rumor connecting former Marquette University standout Jae Crowder to the Bucks. Could it work?
