Guys did you hear? First time this year we won a game when we down by double digits... I'll repeat in case you didn't understand. First time we won after being down 10 or more. What does everyone think of that? Can we have a thread discussing?

It's 8 of 9. That's pretty solid any way you look at it. Heck of a response after that 5 game slide.

MVP of the team, clear All-Star starter, 50/40/90 at 20/6/6 like Larry Bird, underpaid, underrated, underappreciated.

I am going to choose to take this 100% seriously. That’s my choice to make.

After that game when Giannis shot 1/10 FTs he is shooting for 71.7%(185/258) from the line.

Edit: That's exactly his career percentage btw. 8-)

If he settles somewhere between 72%-76% then we good.

This stretch of his feels pretty good but we know a bad game or two is coming. He's done this before.

It is just weird to have a top 5 Buck of this Century be so hated by the vocal minority. If the Bucks win a championship, we will need Khris to play well. Yet about 5 posters get tickled pink when Khris does poorly.

Khris wasn't too good, but at least he got a stop on Westbrook closing out the game.


I'm glad to see the team stacking winning plays during crunch time.

Giannis asked (politely) Russell to demand a trade for Bucks?

You have to love a win with 8 players in double digit scoring and Jrue/Midds on a combined 9/30 FG

"Great game Russ! I am truly inspired by the way you keep shooting 3's and jumpers even though everyone criticizes you for it. I used to do that too, but then I started listening to the haters and doubting myself. What a fool I am! After watching you tonight, I understand how wrong I was to lose confidence in my jumper. For my next game, I will be sure to honor you and 'let it fly' once again, because that's the only way to prove my critics wrong. Thank you for the lesson in greatness."

The Paschke-stat-arrhea that blew out this juicy bit, among many others equally irrelevant, is starting to grate on me a little. The poor guy seems less and less connected to numbers that matter and more and more just filling time with things that the interns must snicker at in pre-production meetings.

But then he's always been kind of tone deaf about how interesting or determinative a given stat is.

If I had to watch Westbrook on the Bucks I'd probably stab my eyes with pencils.

Also, really need Jrue to shake off the rust. He is key to our playoff run. I'll give him the benefit of the doubt for now, of course. He did have some nice late threes to give us a lead.

I wonder if covid has some lingering effects on him. It can impact you months later.
