Pat Connaughton Appreciation Thread

Pat was a great Buck. Obviously, he lost a gear over the last couple years, but he was a big contributor to our culture and championship. Good luck to Pat! Hope he can find some minutes somewhere.

Could've played baseball, instead chose to help us win a chip and remained humble throughout.

No chance he makes the same bag playing baseball.

Time moves fsst. Thank you Pat.

Actually had to do a double take to see if this thread was actually made. I know he gets some crap for his off-court gentrification stuff, but man he was a warrior for us.

One thing I think is super cool is he scored his career high in his last game with Milwaukee. The perfect send off. Cheers to a key part of the championship run.

Very fun game to be at. As a Bucks nerd, getting a chance to see all the players I generally don't was fun. Seeing Planet Pat in full orbit was crazy. We were going nuts.

Here's an appreciation I can get behind. Super limited dude who gave us all he could and never seemed bothered by the playoffs like so many better players were.

If this doesn't end up having more posts than the Dame thread I will absolutely spam the **** out of this until it does.

Pat was our best role player over our peak Bud years. He didn’t have the ability of some of the others, but he never shied away from the competition the tougher things got.

The dude was fearless, and I hope we can find more guys like him. He’s a champion.

I'm craving a montage of every hit to the head as a Buck.

Dude came in as a Jon Brockman level football throwing mascot, turned into a championship level role player for a minute and will leave a real estate mogul in the surrounding areas. Hats off to Pat, I imagine we'll see him around in the future.

His play in the championship run should never be forgotten. Still came out and busted his arse this past season, prior to the Sims/KPJ efforts his bench energy vs. others was almost shocking. Love this man. All the best Pat.

Do you appreciate his blow bys on the perimeter?

Now they have a certain beauty to them...

I raised an eyebrow at a stupid comment in a meeting last week and swear I saw Pat fly right past me and landed on the other side of Spring Street.

Dude signed a vet min after his rookie contract then was in closing lineups for a team that won the NBA Finals. Let that sink in.

Wasted opportunity to punt a Dunleavy-type into the stands...

Dude was a rare role player who got better as the games got harder.

Farewell sweet Prince Patty!

Patty C was my son’s favorite Buck. Maybe because of his blow by contests of the threes lol. Solid player and guy for these Bucks glory years, easy to root for Pat, Appreciated how he like Khris always brought it against the Celtics.
