This week’s Tuesday Tracker featured a few questions from week one of the regular season again as we check back in with you about the starting lineup and the team’s defense. Here are some other highlights:

  • A majority of respondents (55.3%) think that Brook Lopez’s playing time shouldn’t be more than it currently is.
  • A whopping 80.7% think that Andre Jackson Jr. should be seeing more playing time over any of the other deeper bench players
  • Two-thirds of voters are in favor of MarJon Beauchamp taking Malik Beasley’s spot in the starting lineup, and only 14% of them want to continue to start Beasley. Two weeks ago, 33% of voters favored Beasley and 32% favored Beauchamp.
  • 53.5% of voters still think the Bucks will finish in the upper half of the league in defensive rating (they are currently 25th), but no one thought they would finish in the top five. In our season-opening poll, 88% of voters thought they’d have a top-fifteen defense, meaning that confidence is down nearly 35%.
  • Adrian Griffin’s disapproval rating is up 28% to the point that 38% of voters don’t believe he’s doing a good job with this Bucks team.
  • The full results are below (rounded to the nearest whole number).
