Lillard tried his best harden performance shooting 20 free throws and giannis nearly played the entire second half and the bucks still got smoked with the Celtics playing trash today

It is definitely time to sound the alarm on Denver.

Brunson's foul baiting not being rewarded is always appreciated

He's broke man. Just looks broke. I don't know what injuries he's got or why it's taking so long to get right.


I think he should just sit out for extended time to get himself right

Maybe allow the Nuggets to tank too


Yeah. He needs like 6 months of rehab and rest. I didn't want him on the Canadian Olympic team and I'm Canadian. So many of us were cringing whenever he was out on the court.

Bucks need to trade Bropez for some shooting and just commit to Giannis being a 5. They they just do not have enough fire power.

Never had any doubt how he'd develop. You watching all these games? How many screens you got lol


Two at a time. I am watching Orlando/Indiana and Toronto/Denver now since they're in the fourth.

I wasn't too far off :lol:

Dear lord, Nuggets are total car wreck. Feels like Jokić being sabotaged by rest of the squad.

I wouldn't have done that either. I wouldn't have given Gordon an extension either. They are not talented enough to be a top-heavy team salary wise.

The Bucks' roster is so average. They should trade Middleton/Lopez, but their values are probably cooked.

Not sure they have many options to improve.
