I am thoroughly enjoying watching Thanasis play right now.

people really tried to say Thanasis is less deserving of an NBA spot than Bronny

He had back to back fun plays, one handed lob from Sears followed by a pretty sick drive and finish

I am hoping Doc sees how good Livingston is playing and gives him more minutes at the start of the game Sunday let him be first sub at the 3 spot see how he does.

Yeah, I want to see some of those guys in non-complete scrub lineups.

I'd like some of them to get relegated to only playing against scrubs, also. Watching 11-15 play was brutal. That Bouyea, Ajax lineup was poison for my eyes.

Ajax was showing some great flashes last season, before getting benched towards the end. The summer didn't seem to help him, unfortunately.

Hey that lineup won the game I thought Ajax played pretty good. But Livingston stood out both games he just looks more aggressive and comfortable out there still really young but you can see the talent he has I can see why he was a top recruit from high school. Now he needs to keep working on his game and getting experience playing with better players.

Livingston needs to get a real chance this year

Who knows.. but i'm glad. No need to risk anything with him. Just slot him in at starting 1 and profit.

I'm completely perplexed how Thanasis can still jump like that. What in the world

Bucks are incredible and it's all without Giannis. Bucks in four.

Dairy might about be the deadliest spot up shooter in the NBA this year. It’ll be interesting to see if he has added new things to his game this offseason.

I get that Liv is 21 and we took him as a scratch off on a favorable deal... but geez fking get in front of someone. At this point he's worse that Thanasis and it isn't close. Defensively, he reminds me of Malik when he was here where on ball he's useless and off ball he's lost. Offensively...basically nothing, clumsy idk ... he's fully guarnteed but it's a low salary. Is he a cut candidate? Just athletic with no feel; I hope I'm wrong but he reminds me of a really athletic, tall soccer guy they had to convince to play basketball and he didn't catch on.
