Looking forward to 10 days of no Kris updates.

Only concern for me is Khris's health. Hopefully it isn't anything serious.

Infrastructure win. Good **** boys. He won’t win it, but Bud deserves more COY consideration. Credit where it’s due.

Pretty certain no one is. Pointing out how a great team can be better is not "being miserable".

I interpret those posts differently but agree to disagree. Let’s all enjoy the 1 seed after a long, grueling season.

Let’s see:

Thanasis
Green
MarJon
Leonard
Dragic
Wiggington

Probably give Crowder some minutes since he hasn’t played much. Maybe Wes a few. Not sure about the starters. Maybe a few minutes? Giannis will sit.

The one we waited 50 years for. I get pointing out bad things, hell I do it all the time. Especially hot takes in game threads. But we have a player and team we probably won’t have again in our lifetime. I can’t imagine not enjoying this ride, even if it sometimes comes up short of the final destination.

Enough on the soapbox. GO BUCKS.

And I hope Big O is able to still watch games even if he can’t be here any longer.

Oh no…what did I miss with Big O? Banned?

Oh no not banned. He’s a great poster. He said he hae some issues come up and won’t be posting or reading the board for awhile. Sounded like a long while.

I was able to find his post. Sad to hear that; he’s a great member here.

Have to hope they're being overly cautious with Middleton but it's not something you want to see a week-ish out from the playoffs. We really needed him to be ramping up close to normal by now. Now it's a sit and wait to see if he can maybe play game 1 of the playoffs.

For airing fears that didn't turn out to be true?

Everyone has to be positive or people will get mad? Lame.
I'm pretty sure it's the posters who incessantly whine and complain and be debbie downer bitches that are drawing the ire of our esteemed moderator. Simple criticisms in and of themselves aren't the problem.

Dang, I was scared to ask about his absence. I hope he makes it back soon. Best wishes to him.

Some on this board have been writing off the Bucks all season.

We don’t care about seeding
We rest guys too much
We’re too conservative with injuries
We chuck too many 3’s
We lose games we shouldn’t
We don’t win by enough
Bud is a terrible coach

And yet here we are, 58-22 and the overall 1 seed.

That doesn’t guarantee anything of course. The last 2 champs were 3 seeds.

It’s hard to win a championship and we may not. If we don’t the usual suspects will crow about how smart they were (as Jez pointed out in the game thread). They knew all along we weren’t that good. **** that.

Game 1 will be Sunday the 16th. Possibly against these Bulls.

Whatever happens in the playoffs I love this team. Like most of you I suffered during the lean years. I don’t take Giannis or the team’s success for granted.

Rest up guys, you deserve it.


You guys can rest up, but there's no reason to not hit the lab and get some posts up. Iron sharpens iron.imo

Is that "piss on oneself if the Brewers make the playoffs" still a thing?

So after reading this thread that should be joyous my big impression is none of you can be trusted in the GTs.

I know Bud is tight lipped but the quotes he's given so far are not encouraging.
