I will keep on complaining about Pau because he is garbage. I don’t think the b2b has DJ Wilson too tired.

perhaps bud is feeling him (pau) out. He can scrap him come playoff time

There's nothing unreasonable about calling out poor lineup decisions.

It's kind of silly when you still have a halftime lead and are playing the second game of a brutal back to back.

But I get it. People always have to bitch about something here.

The rotation with Giannis taking quick breaks 5 minutes before the end of the 2nd and 4th quarter always causes us problems.

Actually it is when Giannis, Bledsoe and Middleton go to the bench and it is Brogdon+Bench unit. Those units usually struggle. This team is deep enough that I don't understand why we don't try to keep two starters in at all times.

Like, I get it, but this game doesn't really count as far as I'm concerned. Ersan is pretty clearly a scratch at this point, which means DJ is the only other guy dressed who can play. And he's been effectively benched for weeks now. Everybody else is playing roughly even minutes, and sure, Pau is washed up and Patty can't play, but would you rather have our other guys play more minutes than they need to in a game whose outcome is pretty much meaningless?

Brogdon to be better in the 2nd half please. And of course Gasol to give any kind of reason why he should be playing.

At least those people are "bitching" about the actual game, and not other posters.

At least signing Gasol gives us someone new to bitch about, I like Ersan and Tony, and at least Patty hustles...

I don't understand what there is to complain about people complaining. DJ Wilson has been at the end of the bench, sure, but he's also the freshest player on the team right now. And as you just noted, we're playing B2B in a horrible situation with the time change, arrival, etc. Complaining about "washed up" guys not playing over DJ who we have previously seen be such a plus defensively, is totally valid.

Truly the superior type of bitching!

Saving Ersan for the second half

What gets old is the Bucks are up 6 while missing a few key bench contributors (Ersan, Hill), on the road against a good team, while on a B2B. And it's still hard to find a positive comment in this thread.

This is a problem though and I don't see why we shouldn't talk about it in a game thread.

I like the Bucks and I think they played well.

If Buds rotation wasnt so poorly constructed tonight we'd have a cushy lead instead of 2 possessions. With Donte back and Ersan and Dj on the bench we have multiple better options than Pat and Pau and yet those 2 still played enough minutes to let our leads dwindle with them on the floor.

Plus Pau shouldnt be allowed on the floor without Giannis
