Re: Around the League -All Star Game
It's encouraging but also a frustrating reminder of the shot making we've been missing with Dame in the games that count.

Re: Around the League -All Star Game
Bucks fans watching Dame scorch nylon in the All-Star game after suffering through his 2024 shooting percentages:

Really hope this weekend serves as a turning point for him, and for the Dame/Giannis partnership.

Re: Around the League -All Star Game
It would be awesome if it's Dame's first start and Dame is mvp.
Especially after people were **** on dame as a starter and saying other guys deserved it over Dame.

KD was trying to defend him & has length. Dame still drained that sh--. Think he's on a mission moving forward.

Re: Around the League -All Star Game
he missed his first 3 shots and then has been on fire, maybe we should focus on getting him going first. Giannis will always get his

Re: Around the League -All Star Game
Doesn't mean a whole bunch, but is interesting. Giannis has the highest ppg in All-Star games with a slight edge over Durant at 25.1 to 25.0. And is 26 total points from tying Shaq for 10th all time points.

Hope this opens Giannis’ eyes a bit too.

I don't know if this is how it'd work, but as fast as he can rack up points, it'd be worth trying letting him miss even 5 or 6 in a row to find his rhythm. He definitely needs to be more aggressive, seems like he's even passed up easy shots at times.

Re: Around the League -All Star Game
As much as we like to bitch, Dame and Giannis have the first and second amount of attempts.

Re: Around the League -All Star Game
I wonder if on a game dame misses a few and gets shy and decides to relegate himself and let others get theirs.
But in an asg you miss a few and no one gives a ****. So you keep shooting to get into a rhythm.
What if we just tell damn "KEEP SHOOTING!" forget about focusing on brook and beas, you get your self into a rhythm and then start distributing.
Idk.. Just thinking out loud

Re: Around the League -All Star Game
Even if he doesn't get hot in the second half of the season, him showing he can still be Dame is good in a worst case scenario if we get eliminated in round 1. Hopefully it would be viewed as a bad fit and have some trade value. Obviously I hope this means he is back and we win it all but last week has me in some dark places as a bucks fan.

This ****ing sucks tbh, just bombing 3s. Dame’s half court was cool and I hope this helps get him on track but god damn this is boring.
