This Bucks team has been a lot of fun (and good) since the trade deadline.

Listen to me, I feel like a school boy again....lol.

I think we need to sign three new 2-way players. Yikes.

Agree, and its too late.
I am not seeng with AJJ and Livingston. Time to punt. Otherwise great game.

Maybe we can trade them for AD after he gets bought out.

KPJ has such a feel for the game that it's frustrating when he makes a lazy out-of-bounds pass or something similarly wayward. The dimes he had tonight were largely simple plays expertly delivered. Real good sign to see him fit in amongst his max-level teammates.

Have to assume they'll see the Cavs in the semis. Sunday's game will be a good peek. Perfect time to put KPJ on Mitchell and Garland and see what it looks like.

Another great game.

If you play him, he produces. It's seems to be that simple

Not a chance we keep him unless he's willing to take a pay cut to stay with the team that gave him a chance. With him, GTJ, Bobby, Sims, Brook it's going to be real tough.

Also, this is wild:

KPJ seems to be having the time of his life. He might just opt in to continue repairing his image and building his value in a positive environment.

100% yes! He probably will be!

There was a question in the GT on whether KPJ is Salmons or Sessions? Interesting thought experiment, and I'm going to have to throw John Lucas into the mix.

I've been rooting hard for Livingston but he looks like an AAAA player every time he's on the court.

I saw a rebound followed by a nearly full court lob & assist to AJAX for the dunk. Any other vet starter we've leaned on too much for how many years now wouldn't rebound or activate or make that lob connex, admit it, that last one you saw was $Khash$ to Giannis & it wasn't last year. I don't care how it looks; he hustles, he passes, he rebounds and if you want the bench to atrophy w Thanasis or old men or rilly rilly good playerz who'll never see the light of day let alone the court, alrighty then.

I'm probably putting too much stake in what was probably a boilerplate interview answer, but that combined with on-court body language (Chones don't do it!!!!!!!!!) indicates he might be realizing the situation he's in.

He looks like he'd be fun to play with, and tbf, maddening to coach. Look, I have a fondness for likeable knuckleheads, ok.
