**** like this is why Jrue might be my favorite player to watch now
He’s got such a bizarre combination of strength to just totally body defenders but also fluidity/body control

I've said it before but there is no shot he isn't the league leader in spins per 36.

Re: PG: Bucks Roll Over Wizards
Is the team trying to decide between the 3 seed or the 1 seed? Keep yourself in position and strike if needs be?
I dont think i'd want the 2 seed, tbh and probably play Brooklyn.

That's a brutal end of season schedule. I wouldnt be surprised if we finish 1st or 4th.

Lol no, my kids got there reasonably early but they had given them all out already. Best giveaway ever, but they purposely hold back on the quantity.

If I had one I would definitely sell it today. You'll be able to buy one for 20% of what you get today.

I'm deleting this because I'm not getting involved.

Re: PG: Bucks Roll Over Wizards
Yeah I'm still a little baffled by the obsession with these rings. I listed my Wiz tix last week and they sold pretty quick for just over 2 times face value(wasn't expecting that). The worst part is waiting hours in the rain just to get a replica ring?

What i found odd is this giveaway was out there for awhile and I couldn't giveaway tickets a month ago, and I wasn't the only one. I ended up returning them for credit. But in last week, the prices spiked significantly. Kinda wild.

This was supposed to be green font.
I had a couple friends wait outside since 5:45, miss opening tip and not get rings.
how? Did it really take 90 min to go through the main doors? Anyways for those who aren't concerned with giveways or for busy games like playoffs, put $25 in a BMO account and get a Bucks debit card. Hardly any lines.

10 bucks for a knock off ring on AliExpress. My guess is they’re just as nice as the giveaway for anyone really jonesing for cheap jewelry

I'm trying to imagine what last year's playoffs would have been like if Jrue's shotmaking had been where it's been the last couple games. I think we lose 3 games max.

The weirdest part is that they did as you said, but then didn't control the inventory. They just handed them out like Gruber tshirts to who ever got to the stand first, not checking vouchers or having any lines to stop people from bum rushing.
You would've thought if they had them limited edition, you would leverage it. Oh first 10k people they need to get into lines that snack around the entrance*** in a special line for the giveaway to actually know who the first 10k are. Then say STH (or even add a big donor charity category) who are present can skip the giveway line and scan a bar code in their Bucks app. But only those STH who are present get them to incentivize people attending and not just resellers. Suddenly it seems much more controlled and gives a tangible benefit and air of superiority to STH.
***no idea why the entrance isnt just a single line that shoots off to all the different doors so that the lines move evenly in a control manner for big games. Big events set up port o Johns like this and it is very efficient so a single line doesnt have a single point of failure.

Can you imagine what would happen to Grayson Allen if he played like Pat Bev?
