After Kidd pulled Thon and Giannis, the Bucks later ran the lead from 12 to 14. It didn't cause immediate collapse. We were up 17-5 at the 7:31 mark and then ran it to 23-9

The momentum shifted when JaVale McGee came in and started to challenge the Bucks in the paint.

That said, not many coaches would pull both Giannis and Thon after only 4.5 minutes and your team up 12 on the Warriors. I mean we know the Thon for Monroe thing might be coming. But Giannis for Telly? Who the **** does that?

Not real worried about this one. Giannis played poorly, and GS was hitting everything they threw up after the first. It happens.

Reading this reminded me of Telly pulling up on the fast break for a foot on the line two pointer. Made me laugh, that's positive progress.

I have two lower bowl tickets at the Moda Center waiting for me for $122. I haven't watched a Bucks game in entirety since early December and I feel great about it. I see they are sitting right where I'd imagine: absolute irrelevance but enough to pump the propaganda machine for the owners. Oh yay. I see we are a game back of .500 and, honestly, I ask myself: do I jeopardize my state of enlightenment by witnessing the inevitable Kidd rotations and inevitable dominancing by Lillard and McCollum at the whim and fancy of such a **** egregious defensive scheme? Or, in a positive light, I ask myself: do I want to watch the results of the the lopsided Nurkic trade? I think I am actually asking: Is it worth $122 to watch Nurkic and Giannis?

Thoughts?

**** it. In Portland, I know I can sip a good overpriced hard cider and watch the Bucks fall closer to a late lottery selection.

Middleton is back and is mostly still awesome. Could you leave a trail of Chipotle burritos leading to a Moda Center closet and lock Henson in there? Can you also bring a group of women, preferably a little mouthy in the hopes that Kidd hits one of them in front of a camera forcing him to either resign or have the owners fire him? If that fails, can you leave a trail of alcoholic beverages leading to a car with keys in the ignition?

I laughed but this is savage. I feel dirty now.

Back to Back games against fresh teams...
In all of these we either started hot in the first quarter and then collapsed or we had been totally outplayed from the beginning.

1: @Detroit Loss
2: @Dallas Loss
3: @Miami Loss
4: @Washington Loss
5: Philadelphia Loss
6: Miami Loss
7: @Clevelant Loss
8: @Golden State Loss

Back to Back games against teams on also Back to Backs.
We totally outplayed all of them except Boston and Minnesota, two teams which were 2 of the hottest teams at the time, and both games were decided in the crunch. In Clevelant Kidd threw the white flag without any real reason midway in the 4th quarter.

1: @Chicago Win
2: @Clevelant Loss
3: @Chicago Win
4: Boston Loss in overtime
5: Phoenix Win
6: Indiana Win
7: Toronto Win
8: Minnesota Win

Always tough to lose to these insufferable, self-congratulatory, bumptious Bay City babies, but this one wasn't too painful.

thats a small push ffs

i think its a high chance that delly is a dirty player (as in he loses control in the heat of the moment) but definitely not because any of the previous incidents that people always mention

the only person who got hurt was korver after a normal thing like diving for the ball, like brogdon might have injured curry when he dove for the ball

the gibson leg squeeze is not going to hurt anyone and ok delly tried to headbutt horfords elbow but he missed and it was in retaliation for being dragged down

flop. The Taj one was beautiful, Delly got all inside his head and made him crack the **** 3 times in about 20 seconds. Gibson is an actual dirty player, Delly is a minor troll who plays at an appropriate intensity.

They're generally a pretty good commentary team, but that's amusing coming from a guy who calls games for a team with Draymond and his natural shooting action. Jim Barnett is a joy to listen to and didn't really sound like he wanted any of that discussion.

I know Steph is a beloved son there, but suggesting that's going to lead to him blowing out a knee or rolling an ankle is some pretty heavy handed helicopter parenting.

Thon's minutes next to his game stats make me a sad panda

The funny thing was the bucks social media saying:
"and he's 7 feet, you can't teach that." They post some weird stuff, but yes a very cool pic.

That's what I was wondering, is that the part you can't teach? An average jump shot.

I didn't even notice that part.

I don't have a Twitter account, but I do browse it somewhat regularly. I love how they use #OwnTheFuture on everything.

I wish I had some way to accurately measure it, but to my eye test this pic shows Thon's greatest disadvantage: he wingspan is smaller than Gianni's even though he's supposed to be 2 inches taller. He has kangaroo arms.

Just my eye test though, I might be wrong

*** I know his official combine measurement is 7'3" wingspan which is the same as Gianni's. I don't trust it.

Prince12 · Post #99 » by **Prince12** » Tue Mar 21, 2017 5:38 am

Kangaroo arms is not a way id describe thon..

That is cool, Delly looks like he's doing a great job dribbling those two balls. Couple of guys in the way of the shot a bit tho.
