Kuz is better at the 4 so I wonder how that works out with Giannis
Hopefully less brook and Bobby together time

Solid win, any win without 34 is.

Every game moving forward that has Dre/Prince starting is coaching malpractice. It’s been that way for a minute but it’s getting especially ridiculous. It is beyond time Doc cut the **** and started the players that deserve to start.

I know you're taunting me, so I guess I'll point out that we were better when he was out again today. JK, I'm super happy with the win.

Just less Brook overall. Bobby has earned keeping his role.

No reason for Hubie to quit yet. Hope he comes back.

Was actually taunting rilamann for his GT comments but ya you aren't his biggest fan, which is fine. I'm just petty and dislike personal comments like that

Nurse full court press down 24 terrorism stole Jericho Sims minutes from us.

I think this is mainly the Kuzma we can expect going forward. An inefficient scorer(5/13 today), solid rebounder(8 boards), decent passer(5 assists), and somewhat turnover prone(3 turnovers)

Basically I think was a typical Kuzma game most nights
Coach Drew: "Milwaukee has always been a team that I have been intrigued by. When we played them, they were a tough team for us to play. Although we did beat them all four times"

I think it will create chaos but Dame and Giannis thrive with that... Giannis might look at Kuz and hit open shooters instead or pivot away from the traffic and hit Kuz anyways.

Especially when you have not one but two guys that deserve to start and are more well rounded players and better floor spacers.

Total minutes and closing minutes matter more, yeah, sure, but let’s maximize the time together with guys that deserve it and will be a part of closing lineups.

Kuzma brings a number of things we needed, but his shot decisions can be brain smashing. I hope it doesn't become contagious.

Ajax starting seems to be a player development thing, but get Prince way out of there

Yeah, with Giannis and more easy shots that % could go up but yeah, defer and fill up the box score in other ways.

I thought he was actually a very good passer. I think he set up a lot of hockey assists that were key in creating open corner 3s. He also shot 2 end of quarter buzzer pressed shots (which I actually applaud him for taking instead of protecting his stats). I can't defend him being a little out of control going to the hoop, but it looked like sometimes he is going to yam on someone and will bring the juice. He has to work the Wizard possessions out of his game also. He is on a much better team and can't throw possessions away trying to take stepback 3s early in shot clocks.

Kuzma looks better than I thought he would be he should be better once he gets more comfortable with this team. He is bigger than I thought should really help are rebounding and defense can’t wait to see this team with Giannis and at full strength. Great gm today keep it going tomorrow nite.

I have no doubt the Nurse wastes all his practice time on gimmicks and never works on the basics. He sucks.

I wonder if his back is acting up or something
