How about this? Give us an example of a sniper the Bucks should go out and get besides apparently Jae Crowder.

A. Remember playing a pickup game with men and only had 9 dudes so you asked some 12 year old to play but noone actually covered him? His guy kind of zoned around the paint ripping everyone and if the kid actually got it he pissed his pants. That's Donte all year... that's why his 38% is sh#t.

B. Remember when Beal was being hounded on D but still managed to score? Noone has covered Donte like that all year.. that's why his 2 for 5 is sh#t



Wait, you play basketball at the Y with 12 year olds and are using that as a way to explain why Donte is no good?

Thanks, perfect example of knowing how to read but not comprehend.


I completely comprehend the point you are attempting to make, it is just a very narrow minded way to look at NBA basketball.
Dealing with people who exhibit the "smartest person in the room" syndrome can be a challenge. One approach is to listen their opinion while also encouraging open-mindedness. It's important to create an environment where all voices are valued.

Ez championships, why none thought of that?


But are we even sure they're real snipers? Are they making them in the 4th Q or 1st? Plus, I actually don't want regular season snipers, I want the guys who will specifically do it in the playoffs. Like it's not even for sure that we'd want Joe Harris as we don't know if he'll hit 37% in the playoffs or 50%. I want the guy who will get at least 50% if not more in the specific 12 game stretch that I need, heck sometime even over 4 games is enough as long as you ignore the rest of the playoffs. A real GM can predict who will be hot on a specific week off the summer.

Idk who is a better shooter that teams wouldn't dare leave unchecked... I'll just say for the last time --- I don't understand how Donte gets minutes playing next to Giannis. The only thing I can even fathom is that it's to avoid having Forbes playing D next to Middleton-- too much Ole at once. Obviously plus/minus favors a dude playing with starters. Forbes shooting like 90% the last few games isn't enough to get a little more run and we'll mess up his confidence. But anyways it is what it is if we can't upgrade with a trade or buyout I expect to lose the same way we did the last 2 years but I'll STFU now and enjoy watching us go as far as we can. : )

I wonder how that enormous Kelly Oubre luxury tax bill is playing with Ws ownership. It's like they took a **** on the sidewalk last year and then Steph came back like wth and he traded for some bread.

Said this before but he’s still nuking teams but in ways that translate so much better to the postseason. It’s entirely within his reach that we could leave this season considering him truly the best in the world. Even if we don’t win the title, like if he pulls some 2017 Kawhi or 2004 Garnett stuff where his performance is so insane people don’t really care that they didn’t win the title.


He's playing with joy which I think is the biggest positive so far. Leaned in to trusting the process over results. Very keen to see how much he's learned from his "failures" and how it translates to this years playoffs.

Don't want him unless he can hit minimum 45%, preference being 55 actually.



Zing!

you really don't realize he was making fun of you?

Mikal Bridges and Chris Paul are the biggest reasons the Suns are an improved team.


That doesn't mean Booker hasn't been a good player the whole time, or at least the last couple years once he got really good.

No one's saying he isn't good enough to be a starter or anything.

OK, keep thinking he's not good. Worked out well for the Lillard haters saying the same thing.

No one said either of those guys weren't good. They're just not guys you build championship teams around. Heck, I wouldn't mind Zach LaVine if I knew my team sucked.

He's having his best season, by far, but I still wouldn't want him as more than a third guy, and Drue might not like that.

I mean yeah his role would be way different here but his game translates much better off ball than Beal's for example.

Giannis and Beal are a good enough top 2 to win a championship. Giannis, Khris, and Jrue are not a good enough top 3 to win a championship. Think about it.
