Is he a guarantee to play? Thought I saw he missed practice yesterday too with his lingering injury…

He’s going to play, how good can he play with those injuries is the question. That groin or abductor looks like it’s really bothering him. He has no burst at all right now.

So,, SAS brought out that all of Dame is +30 point performances at Fiserv his kids were in town.

Kidnap the kids, Edens!

The other talking point with Shannon & Tim Legler, was pushing if Dame is unhappy & wants to be in Miami, you have to deal him to Miami. My reaction to that was, f--- off. If he didn't actually want to be here don't suggest it as a destination.

So Shannon and Legler were saying what I have been saying since like the 1st week of November about Dame wanting to be Miami and wanting no part of being in Milwaukee.

I am going to have to check that one out.....lol.

To me it's been obvious, I've said it many times over the past 6 months. Dame in a Bucks uniform looks like a guy who is being forced to do something he wants absolutely no part of doing. He only suits up in a Bucks uniform because he's contractually obligated to and wants to collect his pay check.

It's hilarious that people think Dame is going to suddenly go hard in the playoffs. Dame sees these playoffs as the light at the end of the tunnel to getting the hell out of Milwaukee.

He’s wearing me down, and I’m actually starting to agree with him on this one.

Go back to our pre-Giannis era. We had some stereotypical NBA divas who got all Emo when they got traded to Milwaukee, and pouted their way out of town. RJ and Stephen Jackson among others.

Dame will show us what he’s of made of in the playoffs. I don’t know which way this will go.

So not counting the wonky years of lockouts and Covid, the Bucks are aiming to be the first team since the 1995 Rockets to win the NBA title with less than 50 reg season wins.

Doc says that the Bucks have a 50-50 chance of beating the Pacers without Giannis, though there's only a 10% chance of that.

I feel for him re: the kids. But don't you think that through before demanding your way?

At the POTO hosted Thanalysis live podcast Giannis made some point about spoiled brats in the NBA.

Then he said I'm not talking about these guys: Brook, Bobby, Bev (in audience), Marjon. I don't think Dame is that either but I'd be lying if I didn't say I was connecting dots between the First Take banter & that comment.

Like most people here, I hope he's not in line with the former malcontented.

Well, I think they could beat them without him. Brook & Bobby have a say.

If the fifty percent is dictated by the defense the remaining players commit to & moving the ball, then I can back that. But he should be rallying the team, re: the ball they have to play, the defense & (Doc phrase) "no wasted possessions".
