I guess his hammy is relatively fine then & playing him thru the back-to-back wasn't a big deal. It was worth it in the cost-benefit analysis. Tonight would be as well, but I guess Doc needs an excuse going into the break to protect his job (can him anyway).

This is the exact situation we were trying to avoid when we brought Kuz here. He's supposed to be 3rd option instead of 1st, like in DC. I guess last yr he wasn't half bad in that role. But at least they had Poole & Jones as handlers. We got Rollins & Porter. And the Zards still only won 15. Don't think this will go well for Kuz or the Bucks. Don't overreact (some will).

Play defense, let that keep them in it. BS that Edwards is playing. If we don't have Giannis, they should sit Edwards.

It's fine, they're giving him an extended rest going into the break. We don't have to make it into a thing even though I already know people will jump at the chance.

It's not fine with me. The Bucks are TWO games up in the loss column from being in the play in. Either he's hurt or he's not.

Sitting out tonight and playing in the all star game shows what the Bucks think of the regular season.

No respect for the fans.

At some point in the rest of the regular season, Dame may actually be hurt and have to miss some games. These games will matter in determining if they end up in the play in or worse.

I'll repeat. Quit playing with your food.

AS game is a jog through for a guy like Dame... shooting practice.. he wouldn't be expected to dunk like Giannis would... non-story... don't let anyone make it one.. it would be like a scrimmage practice half speed.. he won't drive

I am excited to kick the tires on what’s-his-face for 40+ minutes tonight. He’s going to be a great player, given the opportunity

I wish they would give Brook some rest when they decide to punt games. Would like to see Sims get some minutes and see how we fair without Brook slowing us down for big chunks of the game.

Let's be real, contending for championships went out the door when they hired Doc.

Complain about players playing "hurt", complain about players not playing "hurt". The ASG is a glorified shoot around. He'll go in, jack up some half court shots and go home. Hell, he'd probably get more activity going home and playing with his kids all weekend.

Kuz, not bad D but dumb foul.. don't reach forward

Kind of amazing the one guy not getting rest is Brook.

I expect Kuzma to miss and he usually doesn't disappoint
