Det @ mil,Tues 8:00 pm 

Post#1 » by kurtis48239 » Mon Nov 24, 2014 3:57 am

We will be playing the bucks for the 2nd time after a win against them at home on the 7th of nov.

This should be a good game being its in mil and they will be looking for payback.The fans are going to be into this game as well considering how much they hate jennings and the trade.

The knight vs jennings matchup could go either way depending on which one gets hot,they both have reasons to play with chips on their shoulders.

Giannis antetokounmpo is questionable,but should see some minutes off the bench after spraining his ankle.

I think we can win if we play team ball and if we can hit shots from the perimeter and our bigs come out with energy and dre has a dominating game (or at least can stay out of foul trouble).

LETS GET THIS WIN!!!!!!!!!!

Lmaooo at the pics. DRE. Bayless. KIDD. LMFAOOOO.

We got the Bucks again coming up soon iirc. It's odd that we got scheduled to play them 3 times so early in the season.

This will be an epic battle between two teams both not good enough to win games....

So whoever has less stupid plays will win this one. In other words, one team will do more to hurt themself than the other.

The Bucks are 7-7, they are a better team than Detroit. As pathetic as that sounds.

By the time Jodie comes back, this team will be on the brink. Might as well tank.

Josh Smith is on pace to have the worst offensive season of all-time.. We really should bench him.

If we're incredibly lucky. I don't think Drummond is going to turn into the blue chipper that so many pegged him to be. From my perspective, we still don't have a player we can build a team around.

Yeah. If Dre keeps playing like this I think his ceiling would be lower than what we all projected. I'd bench him. If it really shakes his confidence then that says a lot about his character. It's too weak anyways to become an All-Star so why not take the chance?

As one of the biggest "anti-homer" posters on this board with no issues going against popular opinion/criticizing players, I think we all need to take a step back and give Andre a chance. It's not often that someone with his level of offensive skill in year 3 becomes a guy that you can give the ball to and tell him to go get a bucket, sure. But we should at the very least let him play out his rookie contract before constraining what he will/wont become.

I would have NEVER, ever thought that Jimmy Butler would become an efficient 20/6/3 scorer before this season. Last year he didn't even shoot 40% from the field. I saw him as a guy that had limited ball handling and couldn't create his own shot. A guy that was mostly a defensive player who was slightly better than Pat Beverely/Avery Bradley. Fast forward to now and he has become a terrific two-way player capable of getting to the line frequently and creating his own offense, and he's incredibly efficient. I don't think he'll be THIS good for the whole season because Thibs drives his players into the ground, but he had improved tremendously.

The point is, Dre may never became what some of us had hoped he could become at one point. But we've got to at least give him a chance (re-evaluate his progress come time for an extension).

Jimmy Butler really didnt get much a of chance in first two seasons in the league played 8 minutes a game in 42 contests as a rookie and only 26 minutes his sophomore year. Jimmy Butler also really worked on his game this past offseason something that Andre obviously neglected to do despite being on Team USA.

What is more alarming is his terrible post game. SVG must have told him "Hey Andre im gonna give you 5 touches in the post every game so make sure you really work on your game!" Instead he has come out looking like utter ****.

We can and should keep him until his rookie contract is up but we shouldnt exclude him from trades if he doesnt show improvement by the end of this season. Same goes for KCP. How many shots is he going to be allowed to miss before we realize he cant shoot the damn ball
