Feels like the Bucks may tank this one so they face the Celtics.

I think we should give DJ and well deserved rest.

The Orlando line against Milwaukee is +12. I like the Bucks to cover. The Magic is tired, the Bucks is rested, and Milwaukee really, really needs this win. Orlando could take a 40 point bled-letting in this game.

Jabari looks good in highlights but he doesn't start and he's only avg. 12ppg...is he on restriction? (I'm scouting) 8-)

None of this would have happened if we had just traded for Eric Bledsoe.
11/18/2017 - I have officially disowned Nikola Vucevic and branded him a loser.

- Skal Labissiere was my guy in 2016 pre-trade. Whoops, but I still believe.
- Malik Monk was my guy in 2017. Whoops(?)
- Mo Bamba was my guy in 2018. TBD.

They just can't stop the Shelvin Mack + Bismack Biyombo pick and roll. Then again, who can?

Biz is being utilized correctly today. No passes that he can't handle

I can't figure out who the tanking team is. They're missing a suspicious amount of gimmes.

I haven’t seen much of him this year but there was a very interesting article on this not long ago. Apparently he and Giannis don’t mesh well on the court. No locker room or personal issues, just the team feels they have a better team when time shared on the court is minimized / at least one is on the court at all times.

Given he could command a very large contract, this article predicted he will play elsewhere soon.
