He won't really be able to put on much weight with that frame either. I expect him to be one of those guys who doesn't improve as much as you would think after their rookie season. OKC desperately needs size, they are toast in the playoffs this year


After this season, OKC should give up all their picks to acquire 2 time NBA champion Bobby Portis for the toughness, leadership, and rebounding.

We've had this PBP guy doing radio for the last two and a half years while the TV broadcast has stunk up the joint?

Was hoping for 3/3, but I think there is something to this old team picking and choosing when they truly compete and that might be a jarring difference in the playoffs. Optimistically of course lol

This is the third TV game he's done. The first and this one he was good. The second one he was stumbling for some reason. Misidentified players, got other stuff wrong. But overall yes he's much better than Lisa

He is better on TV next to Marques than he is on the radio, this is coming from someone who listens to about 60% of games on the radio

He has a terrible habit of making tiny errors that only Bucks nerds would notice. You get over it quickly but always notice it. Better with time I'd assume

His voice and delivery reminds me a bit of Paschke which is oddly comforting.

Giannis:

34 min. 30/19/4/1blk 13/18 overall 72%. +7

Thats a crazy **** statline!!!

SHA:

30 min 12/3/2/3stl/1 overall 41% - 17

I don't know how SHA plays against top competition but he was a complete nonfactor tonight.

No idea why OKC didn't use some of their draft capital to get more size.

Let Lisa finish calling March Madness and then send her to call women's field hockey where she belongs.

And from Giannis' 13/18, the missed 5 were:

2 bad alley-oop passes by Khris
2 stupid turnaround middies
1 missed bunny which was recovered and converted 1 second later

Not bad all in all.

That's why this Bucks win was so impressive. Shai usually shows up against top competition

we have a nice cushion with Cavs, even though play ins will give us one of Heat, Indiana or Sixers

A game like this is the kinda game that makes you disregard the 'who do you want to play' conversation because the way they played in the 3rd quarter, I think only Denver can hit that level (Boston can, but only if they get hot from 3).

I do think this is a particularly bad matchup for OKC and good matchup for the Bucks. OKC needed Chet to shoot the ball really well to try to play Brook off the court and then just attack the basket. But he wasn't having that kinda night and the Bucks did a really good job of cutting off driving lanes otherwise.

Shai is quite good and to me the MVP but some nights you come up against Patty C and Beas and just have no answers.

Seems like we have too much strength in the paint for OKC to handle.

Denver I think is a dead even matchup and would be a close series.

Boston is just a different animal. I don’t think anyone has an answer to the problems they present.
