:lol:

He was a -33 with 2 pts and 9 assists in the 4th. He ended in the - teens and with 13 points and 10 assists. If you just looked at the stats, you think he tried hard :lol:

I can't say anyone played well. Collins was scrub by Giannis.
Kevin maybe. That's about it. Just Kevin. Then again he got abused by Brogdon off the ball

Trae got abused.
Hamilton sucks. G League
Bembry was much better than the final results.
Len was the only one that didn't look undersized.

Their odds of getting him are only 14 %.


How is that?


Are you not familiar with the new lottery odds?

So we actually closed the game out with Trae/Lin/Hamilton/Dorsey/Bembry. And crazier yet they took about 13 points off of the lead to keep it from being a historical beatdown.

I know it changed but didnt pay any attention. Interesting though. You would think the better teams had better odds. This screws the Hawks in a rebuild.

That's one starter and three rotational players playing in garbage time where it's time to bring in 3rd stringers. I don't get this lineup at all to end a blowout.

I didn’t have any delusions about the Hawks being competitive in this one. The Bucks are “who we thought they were!” One of the few nights John could be bullied instead of the other way around. Good night for Bembry I guess, kind of a bummer to post a career high in a mopping.

Bledsoe, Brogdon, and Hill gotta be the last PG trio you would want Trae to face. Lin had some decent 2nd quarter play to offset Brogdon a bit from an explosive +/-. The Heat aren’t even playing a traditional PG and still his matchup versus Richardson tomorrow doesn’t look good for him scoring over 10.

Bud’s whole coaching career has culminated up to this season. He and Hammy are on a mission and the Hawks were just in the way. 2nd best coach going for my money.

Looks like Bud wanted his squad to put up 200. He can coach speak all he wants but there’s no way that this one wasn’t marked on his calendar.

At least Trae kind of salvaged the stats a bit. 13 and 10 is perfectly respectable. The 3-9 shooting sucks (second bad shooting game in a row), but his 3-point % continues slowly but steadily increasing with a 2-4 night.

There's no perfect system. But under the old system teams were tanking for draft position. At least now all the bottom teams have the same odds.

Bud still had Ersan out there with two 7-footers. I don't think I have ever seen such a height difference on the floor.

Giannis is a freak. I couldn’t stand listening to Marques Johnson on the Bucks network. Wow, what a homer. He kept raggin on Trae it’s like dang man y’all sucked forever then steal intel on Giannis from us. Lol.
