ya sure man the guy with a cut over his eye that was protecting his teammate lyles is lucky it was broken up

As a small market team and Giannis being a super nice guy I’m always happy for the Bucks. That said, I was glad to see Trey be chippy. We need to be more chippy as a team.

It was a high level game we need to learn to play at the next level.

Great game Bucks and Kings. Really enjoyable game from start to (almost - dumb Lyles) finish.
Kings didn't have a way to slow Giannis down at all and then Mids and Lopez started hitting everything.
Great game by Sabonis/Fox and Huerter from the Kings' POV. Bucks did a number on the Kings bench too.

Important win for the Warriors with a 5 game in 7 night road trip coming up on Wednesday for them that will include a healthy Clips + Dallas and a road b2b in Memphis (all battling for seeding). I'd be thrilled with a 3-2 stint, but 1 or 2 wins is the most likely scenario with Wiggins and Kuminga out.

Wouldn't worry about it, when the Bucks are healthy and get in that mode they are really, really tough to beat, they just wear everyone down. The Kings played great, can't wait to see what they can do in the playoffs.

Giannis definitely started because he is too competitive to just take a shot clock violation. He definitely wanted a foul. Just a childish thing but his childless relentlessness is why i love him. Still shouldn't do it. But Trey just snapped and took it from chippy to possible suspensions from a fight. It all was unnecessary.

Anyways, I hope we settle this in June.

It’s good for Basketball to show a little chippiness. And for a Kings team it was great to see. I think it’s a suspension well worth taking.

As a funny aside Matt Barnes is a Kings post game commentator. Every was kidding him about how he kept his jacket on and off the floor. He commented he was tempted but reminded himself he was 42. Lol :lol:

Giannis still the best player in the league. If this version of Middleton is really back, lights out for the East and Boston has zero chance.

What did Giannis do? Trey should be sitting a game for wrapping his hands around Lopez’s throat.

That seems like the kind of overreaction from the Kings that you get when you haven’t been there before.

Something about unwritten rules, I don't know I never understood it. And then Lopez had to follow some other unwritten rule that says you have to "protect" your teammate (who was already merrily on his way to the showers by the way)
It's all pretty hilarious to be honest

It was a high level game we need to learn to play at the next level.

Lyles is a idiot - let’s be honest-

is it really tough to START a fight with a guy that would kill if there was no one there to pull y’all apart?
I could see if Giannis REALLY violated him or Lopez really violated him -

Giannis dribbled in front of him lol-

Mike brown backing his player in an altercation is his first mistake - the point is to not be in a position where all your key players had monster offensive games and you still lost by a mile when it was close going into the forth on your home floor- NOT to be in your feelings about someone dribbling in front of you and “standing up for yourself”.

Standing up for yourself on the basketball court is playing defense and winning.:.. not getting into wrestling matches with bigger men.

Notice Giannis walked away? Like “look at these kids… taking 2 Ls tonight… I’m not getting hurt doing stuff that will prevent us from getting a ring”

We see it all the time in sports - standing up for yourself with behaviors that don’t translate to winning while losing…

For a hint on how to do this right see - Luka and Booker - No chocking - no hitting- no backing down- a threat of beating the other ON THE COURT… the anticipation of basketball beef settled with basketball play…

The Kings proving why they been JV forever-

Play BALL - cause y’all don’t really want to fight LOPEZ:::

A guy who routinely fought with a 7 foot brother that himself is 7 foot and if he puts his hands on you it’s kinda over- and no one wants it with Giannis… cause his brother won’t have a problem getting supended doing what is needed to back up Giannis..: and he is litterally sitting on the bench…

Kings - pleasesssss play ball - y’all have a chance to be a great team if you don’t succumb to grizzlies type BS

He must mean non basketball related Sh*t.

You took a lot of Sh*t in that 2nd half. To the tune of 80 points to your 62.

Who wins?
