PG Thread (Orlando) - Core busts tank

[LedZepp007]

I enjoyed that. I'm all over http://www.tankathon.com but that was fun. ...We dropped to the 11th pick.
I thought Jennings looked like a team player; albeit a bench guy.
Giannis is playing like he's got it figured out.
Moose should be traded. I think he needs high colonic.
I wonder if the Bucks will wheel and deal on draft night.
Jabari is building and I'm confident he'll make major improvements over the summer.
$ is tremendous.
This team is so much fun. I feel proud to be a Bucks fan. I'm so pumped-up I may fornicate with my sleeping wife.

While she's still sleeping? Jesus.

Will she wake up? Lol.

Good god you would think we didn't have two 21 year olds who just dominated down the stretch of a competitive game.

I loved watching Jabari and Giannis go beast mode.

But there are two bigger issues here than those guys having great games tonight,

First, Kidd is a damn loose cannon. The minutes he plays these guys, especially when they're going for 2-3 quarters with no rest, is troubling. You don't think this is gonna continue into next season? It's an issue, period.

And then there's the whole draft position thing. I think getting the 8th slot (and better chance at top 3) is much more important than a few meaningless wins right now, and ending up with pick 11.

So yeah, people have the right to take issue with those things.

-I enjoyed it too. A loss wouldn't have hurt my enjoyment one iota, but I totally get people being happy they won.

-To your last point, pics or it didn't happen. Too far?

Never too far. Our combined weight is around 750 lbs. I hope you're into that.

I'm only into that if you're midgets. Anything else GTFO.

I wouldn't suggest doing that because if she mistakes you with some rapist or something your balls are doomed

Can't complain when Giannis and Jabari trash the other team while Ennis plays great. You just can't.

They need though to start and play Ennis 35mpg for these last 6. They just have to see how he responds. Maybe we don't have to pay Delly huge money.

2 things.

One is that you never have to pay Delly huge money. It is in fact disadvantageous to ever pay him huge money.

One is that you can't learn what Ennis is made of in these circumstances.

[Shaffty]

Hard to complain when Giannis/Jabri run train

That third quarter where it was just them dunking off eachother's passes was pure bliss

1. No, I don't think it's going to continue into next season.

2. No, picking 8 or 10 is not that important to me. 8 is better. 10 is barely not better.

3. No, I don't think there's a larger issue than Jabari and Giannis calmly exerting their will on the game.

[Rockmaninoff]

Historically, the 10 spot has yielded high quality players. Whether that is statistical noise or teams 6-9 generally picking project busts and leaving quality "low upside" players is open for debate, but I want 10.

6-9. Get her done, BuckHole.

Pretty pissed I missed this game. Heard Middleton/GA went at it for a bit, can someone explain more?

Nice **** minute distribution. Christ.

Yet you and several others primary complaint with hiring Thibs is his minute distribution.

Are people blind? We have Thibs right now. Except our Thibs is not a good coach.

Really? He's been doing it all season. And still down the stretch in meaningless games. Why in the world would he stop next year?

Even if he somehow fixes this roster that he screwed up last year, the big 3 will still be our best players. And I bet anything he still rides them hard.

meh looks harmless. actually kind of like it, just two really competitive guys letting it all out. sh*t happens. LOVE that Jabari was the mediator here, this is the leadership/intangibles everyone was talking about before the draft, it's pretty obvious to me he's going to be the vocal leader of this team going forward, and a damn good one at that.

Are people blind? We have Thibs right now. Except out Thibs is not a good coach.

Umm, what am I missing here? Luke hates Kidd's minute distribution and doesn't want Thibs as coach because of his minute distribution.

It's a consistent position, so it appears you're the one that's blind.

[bizarro]

Tank-wise, this was not the result I'm looking for. But, I go back to: This was an extremely enjoyable game to watch. Sure, there were epically sloppy fastbreaks from both teams. We had some golden Vasquez nuggets. Some JOB sugar sprinkled on top. BUT, I just can't complain or be morose anymore when I see good things from our core 3. The more they gel and the closer they get to this being the 'Norm', the better off we are.

And, of course, I don't like the minute distribution to our core 3. And, of course I'm still livid as hell Vasquez is on the roster while we lost a nice chip in next year's draft not to mention giving Toronto what appears to be a solid rotation piece for years to come in Norman Powell (obviously, early). And, of course, I question a number of other things related to the Bucks basketball ops in general - given Hammond's tenure and, in general, a unique ability for the Bucks to historically **** the proverbial bed when it comes to asset evaluation and management.

BUT, this is my team. It always has been. It always will. I'll take any silver lining I can get. Dunkathon 3rd quarter was mighty nice.

People seem satisfied with the status quo (Kidd as HC) because they feel the future "stars" will be able to overcome his deficiencies at HC. Dude can't even draw up his own play?

Game 7 of the NBA finals. Down 2 with 0.9 seconds left...would Pop, Phil Jackson, or Pat Riley hand over their clipboard to their assistant coach? This is a ****show here.

Do you ignore what happened to the Bulls this year without Thibs? I guess I'm not blind because I see where the Bulls are in the standings vs last year under a different coach.

We might miss out on a higher ranked Schwartz client at this rate.

Good god you would think we didn't have two 21 year olds who just dominated down the stretch of a competitive game.

Just further proves that people really never are happy. Always moving the goal posts just a bit further.

But at least this time around it was two young, very soon to be stars leading the charge for a win instead of the likes of Beno Udrih or Mr. Have It All playing hero ball and barely grazing the rim on a heavily contested shot.
