No way that should be a switch ... that would leave Payne with KP.

I'm sure MIL wouldn't give up Giannis for KAT straight up, not sure what other assets we could use to make it possible without crippling our team..

It’d have to be Mikal and KAT I believe. Id do it

It could happen, as soon as Nico Harrison becomes GM of Milwaukee.

He's supposed to drop to protect the paint, or the guard switches like Brunson just did.


Last season Mitch had a 130 DRTG against them. Tom cares about defending the paint to the point you can exploit it with a stretch 5.

Payne on KP at the 3pt line is actually ok.

everyone on here thought if we got a center who could shoots 3s it would solve everything. they forgot all about the other side of the court. what do you expect, these same people thought rj was the future.

And then they crash out everyday deflecting to Thibs instead of admitting they were wrong.


you don't lose every important game by 20 plus points because of coaching. coaching doesn't matter that much.

You can’t talk sense into them. They’re too stubborn

In a game like this we need dogs who show fight and fire like Divo

Not mellow players like OG and Mikal

The worst is Kat and Brunson have no chemistry they should make life easier for each other yet they just take turns going 1v1
