PG Nets: Bucks Choke
Not blaming the refs, Bucks choked this game away.
            
                                    
                                    I'm against picketing but I don't know how to show it.

Re: PG Nets: Bucks Choke
This team still does a bunch of stupid **** and the coaching doesn't help at all. We should've controlled this game and run away with it and yet...

Re: PG Nets: Bucks Choke
Doc worried about hitting the links for Xmas. 
Was Dame on the bench or still in Portland?

There were some stretches of what can be and a sad look at what is.

Re: PG Nets: Bucks Choke
We didn't have our guys so it's whatever..
But the early season "we've righted the ship" **** is over. This team will be judged by seed and preparedness for the playoffs. Plenty of work to do.

Re: PG Nets: Bucks Choke
Just absolute CTE ball in that 4th quarter. That game was there to be won if we just play like a professional team and execute. Instead we decided to try and have Khris try and be Luka or something

Re: PG Nets: Bucks Choke
Being at the game it's hard to mask the glaring flaws of KM being a liability every time he dribbles, Wright not belonging on a NBA court, Rollins not anywhere close to being "the guy" anyone could hope for, and an overall gap with ball handling any time we put the ball on the floor.

Re: PG Nets: Bucks Choke
Could've mostly avoided the result by taking out Delon Wright after half time, but 3 plays that completely flipped the script -
1) Calling the flagrant on Khris against Johnson - already lost the possession, but adding 2 FTs on top of it to reward a defender for completely crowding a guy's space was backbreaking.
2) Bobby's tap out on the jump ball. Assumed that 1.5 seconds was too little time, but he tapped it right to their Mid Guy Having a Career Night who made his prayer.
3) Bobby leaving Cam Johnson to double Ben **** Simmons from the 3 point line. Open 3 point make, plus the foul leads to a 4 point swing.

Re: PG Nets: Bucks Choke
We’ve run into these “house money” stretches before when we don’t have our stars out there but yet we find a way to win against the bad teams. 
Then there’s the game that shows our flaws on the bench. Still need to make upgrades on the margins, this isn’t a championship team yet.
Rollins and Wright are not playoff rotation players. Need to find an actual backup PG that can play consistently.
Hopefully Giannis and Dame are playing on Saturday.

Was hoping for guys to step up like the last 2 games, but that didn't happen tonight.

Re: PG Nets: Bucks Choke
Really brutal last 15 minutes.  Wright should be out of the league, and Green had one of his worst games of the season.  Midds was generally good, but way too many turnovers.  Needed more Dre and Trent.

Losing games like this is how you end up in the play-in.

I would take current George Hill over Delon Wrong.

Re: PG Nets: Bucks Choke
Missing our 2 main guys, I was not expecting much.
I still like what I see from Green. There was a play with just under 5 minutes left, he hounded his guy with the ball the entire possession and the guy shot up a desperate airball.
Just keep giving Green those minutes to clean up some of the bad switches. His on ball defense is already very good.

Team with or without it's stars refuses to play smart and beat you with the open man.  We get by because our players are that **** good.

The most impressive thing about Giannis and Dame is their ability to mask what a horrific coach Doc Rivers is.
