KPJs minutes need to be at PG. That's simple, just play him more. Playing Dame 36 minutes a night is simply ineffective.


That is what I also think. Dame is a scorer, much more like a sg

The Bucks desperately need to think outside the box and essentially play kpj more minutes

I don’t think Doc should overthink the PG/SG role. As the 2nd best guard on the team (by far), Porter should be starting.

We should start it again and do it every time he is an "analyst" at Firserv.

People being too short sighted with green. He’s in a slump. You need reps to break out of it. Have him take his lumps now and hopefully he’s hot in April/may

A nice "take care of business" W. Need more of those.

It’s fun having J-Rod as a lob threat.

Despite 6/14 and 2/8, if THAT Dame shows up consistently in the postseason we're going to be an extremely tough out. Never pressing, always in control, high level passing, very little, if any, obnoxious-foul-hunting-that-results-in-a-turnover-and-wide-open-bucket-on-the-other-end. More, more, more.

There was another time his sister, Cheryl Miller, was there while working for TNT/TBS. The crowd was chanting "Cheeeeryl. Cheeeeryl. Cheeeeryl. YOU SUCK!" :lol:

Absolutely maddening how easy it was to get him. We've needed him or someone like him for years.

Sure, but SG isn't what's killing the defense

It's plausible to me that we could either get swept in round one, or win the whole damn thing.

I like our spare parts guys enough to think there's a non zero percent chance of them collectively getting hot at the right time.

Of course, whatever punchers shot we have starts and ends with Giannis having a god mode stretch in him and Dame flamethrowing for multiple series in a row. I don't believe there's a team wide "switch" for the playoffs but I do believe Giannis and Dame both have another gear in them.
