Not a good start shooting. My stream is still showing the Mia/Atl game. Is this starting on espn2 or something?

Wow, surprising poll results. I picked Paul thinking he'd be the runaway winner and only the 2nd vote while Ayton has 6.

Quite a few votes for Cam too....would be nice to see since his last good game was March 4th.

And now a blown layup. He’s trying to do way too much.

Nah screw this.

How are people here defending him so much? When you’re a shooter and your shot is off, pass the damn ball and set screens. Wait till you get some easy layups or putback opportunities or FTs to get confidence up before shooting again.

And Crowder is not a Steph Curry type shooter that should have this type of green light.

I don’t care how open he is, Crowder should not shoot the rest of this series. Set screens and play defense, that’s it.

Crowder is terrible. Can we trade him for a ham sandwich?

Why are we forcing Crowder to play in this game?

I get the impression he doesn't want to be on the floor.

Milwaukee are blowing out Chicago away at 1-1 without Middleton, if we're the much better team we can do the same.

Crowder is now 2-17 from the field and 0-10 from three to this point.

Williams NEEDS to bench him. I'd almost rather see Craig at this point as at least he's got a better chance to get something going and is more athletic to stay on Ingram.

They've actually left Crowder open on at least two occasions now unless I'm mistaken. It's if they're daring him to shoot knowing he's in the darkest of funks.
