Was there anything from Game Four that can be built upon heading forward? And what is Kyle Kuzma doing out there, anyway?Riley, Jack, and Jackson put on their funereal garb in this edition of Instant Reaction podcasts.

Kyle Carr and Van Fayaz got together post-game to talk GTJ's heroism, Giannis Antetokounmpo chugging along, whatever Kyle Kuzma is doing, and a flash of mettle from a Bucks team that won't go away quietly.
