I hope not, Bledsoe has been horrible.


That’s exactly why the swap will probably happen. It makes too much sense. The Bucks lacked an additional playmaker whenever they have their starting lineup on the floor. Hill will be (in theory) a more consistent, smarter player to help Giannis ease getting picked apart by the Raptors defence.

This will allow Bledsoe to match up with out bench and take advantage of guys like FVV.


Bud is in a pickle.

Brodgon and Middleton are Kawhi's two main defenders. He'll have nobody from the bench to defend Kawhi if he's out there against the Bucks bench. Even if Giannis is out there, a Mirotic/Illyasova frontcourt is supreme BBQ chicken if Bud happens to bring Brogdon and/or Hill in place of Bledsoe and Mirotic.

Also, not acting like a spoiled brat, playing incredible defense and being a real leader. Those are some other non statistical categories where Kyle has a huge edge over Kyrie.

I worry that this stupid every 48 hours schedule will not allow Kawhi to heal properly. Whatever happened to an extra travel day when they change cities?

The flight to Milwaukee is only 1.5hours thankfully. They’ll probably be in Wisconsin before some Raptors fans get home from downtown tonight, but it sucks that it doesn’t seem like sufficient time to recover from anything.

I knew Game 4 would be a blowout, didnt want to post and jinx.

If Raps can withstand their first punch, remain close or possibly take a slim lead by the end of the 1st, this game should be ours. They're inexperienced while we are. Hopefully Kawhi looks better than he did tonight and the role guys maintain, especially ibaka getting mins and playing with Gasol.

Will OG ever come back? Any updates on him?

need this one. Hope we can get the same balanced offense again (and contributions off the bench) so Kawhi can focus on locking down Giannis

We need someone to interview OG...

I need some answers what's going on with that yute...dude been out so long he legit now has a beard growing lol tf...

We could use some spare minutes now n then to not let Kawhi physically break down. I know there's good chance he shows some rust but we don't need to ask a ton from him offensively, just be solid defensively n hold things down a couple minutes here, a couple minutes there and keep Kawhi somewhere in the 30s.
