I really like boylan as well. But if he can't figure out ways to get spoiled nba players to follow his exact directions then he's just not qualified to be an NBA coach. I'm rooting for him though. He just isn't going to be able to have every player that doesn't care to listen to him traded. It's critical that his puffs up his stature and authority pronto, time is running out. The 1 2 3 bucks! chants coming out of huddles that nobody on the team joins him in are borderline pathetic...

We should've won this game but JJ hit 2 big clutch shots for the win. Really reinforces my belief that its better to overpay for All-Star level players then to be cheap and not have none at all.

Pretty much sums it up.

Honestly if you sit back and think that these next couple of wins or losses is going to make Hammond end trade negotiations or pull the trigger on a trade then I don't know what to tell you. He (and the powers above him) either like the win now talent coming back or they don't. The outcomes of these next couple games means nothing really.

You guys won't be happy until we draft Lebron James. I just want to see them win and entertain. They aren't a horrible team. They have proven when at full health they can play with the best team in the East.

5 things I hated about tonight's game:

1) Bucks lost
2) Mbah a Moute's defense at the end of OT. (have to deny him the ball)
3) Mbah a Moute and Ilyasova's defense at the of regulation. (are you fu**ing kidding me giving up a wide open three up three?)
4) Refs were bad (one-sided)
5) Seemingly every loose ball/almost turnover/deflected pass/offensive rebound ended up killing the Bucks.

5 things I liked about tonight's game:

1) Monta Ellis being showcased
2) Larry being back
3) Barclays Center's music (Biggie, Jay-Z, Eminem, Noreaga... Bradley Center would have been playing The Chicken Dance, YMCA, and I Don't Wanna Work, Streetlife)
4) Tony Smith >>>>> McGlocklin... made for an enjoyable telecast
5) Jennings with a nice bounce back game

Or you can be like the Bucks and overpay for non All Stars.

I'm actually surprised that u wouldn't agree that the person who hinted at what I'm referring to isn't 'very reliable' relative to just about anyone else... You understand the context of what I'm saying and who I'm referring to right?

I would really appreciate if someone can send me a link to the Post game show podcast link. I enjoyed listening to the last one at work here.

I don't believe anything at the deadline. I like discussing all the rumors and all the nuggets, but nothing ever happens the way it's leaked.

Per John Schuhmann on twitter, Joe Johnson is 9-10 this season with under a minute to go in the 4th or OT with the score differential 3 pts or less.

Yes it was the BuckPack rumour saying the Bucks would closely moniter how we did in the few games leading up to the deadline in regards to making moves. A piece of info like that could get skewed around so much by the time it goes through the FO and all the way through to BuckPack's guy then to BuckPack then us. You can't take every little word for gospel and clearly the Front Office has been very busy in talks and already has some deals on the table, these Brooklyn games just aren't going to make us take everything off the table and sit still.

Especially if the rumoured deal is Moute / 1st for Redick, why on earth would you want to lose 2 games and then make a deal like that. Our Front Office is dumb but not dumb enough to sit idle and not try improve the team (even their definition) basis two games against the Nets.

In my opinion they haven't proven that at all. We actually score one less point a game than we give up on average this season. We're the 23 ranked offensive team and the 10 ranked defensive team in the NBA. That means we are essentially a middling team in every essence of the word.

Refs were fine tonight. If anything I thought the reffing dispelled the notion that the Nets get all the calls. That offensive foul call on Williams at the end was a no-call waiting to happen and they saw through Deron's phantom acting on defense a short while later.
