I certainly like listening to Frank and Kane more, but I'm also pretty sure that a lot of the "arrogance" criticisms about Nehm still stem from his penchant to mock all the pre-2021 Middleton detractors and their obsession with the "Khris isn't a good enough #2" narrative. Cuz he certainly was vindicated and wasn't shy about letting all the David Dunns out there know it lol.

He just pops when he is on the floor.

Yesterday against okc, I think I remember seeing him trying and making two three pointers. If the distant shot making improves, that would be the full package.

Was good to see AJJ make a couple outside shots, but under no circumstances should he ever be taking a step-back 3. All I care about is whether he can hit a corner-3 at or better than 35-36%.

I don't think being convicted in your opinions and observations makes you automatically arrogant. Like, Nehm really knows his ****. Arrogance implies your opinion of self is inflated beyond your actual abilities.

Absolutely. Nehm can certainly come off as "arrogant" but he definitely knows his stuff. He watches film and studies the game extensively. He isn't my favorite person that regularly talks Bucks but he's up there

Timme, Gortman, and Moore out.

Sad about Gortman & Moore. Thought those 2 could maybe develop into something. No idea what we see to keep Wigginton around

It's a big head-scratcher. I'm glad they have TyTy to try and develop into a possible rotation player for the future, so hopefully, they can find some bigs to mold now.

Hopefully not Bolden, he sucks

I hate that I've even had this thought, but Kai Jones would be the perfect player for what we're looking for lmao. Sucks he seems to be going through something at the moment.

From my watch list: Heat waived Alondes Williams, Bulls waived Quenton Jackson, Jazz waived Michael Devoe and Taevion Kinsey.

They still can, with the Herd.

Sure, Gortman was on an Exhibit 10, but I believe Moore is just a FA now. And tbf I'm not going to lose sleep over either. But I don't understand what we see in Wigginton at all. I'd much rather have Gortman or Moore on a 2way than Wigginton

If the plan is just outscore the other team's backcourt Dame + Beasley should be able to do that against most teams.

Definitely bummed about Omari and Gortman but Livingston flashing here and there has been nice.

And of course Dre is money in the bank -- we haven't had a 21 year old who belongs on the court since at least Donte, and I think he's poised to give us a lot more than a healthy Donte would have.

Badgerlander · Post #337 » by **Badgerlander** » Wed Oct 18, 2023 7:08 pm

I bet they waived Moore because there will probably be a few players waived by teams over the roster limit on gtd contracts. Hope Moore sticks around on the Herd. I’m with everyone else on Wigginton, no clue why we keep him around. I bet Gortman gets snapped up quick.

Ron Swanson · Post #338 » by **Ron Swanson** » Wed Oct 18, 2023 7:08 pm

Starting to become more open to the idea of playing AJJ with the starters considering how much we've seen Beasley crashing hard on the offensive glass. There's a universe where he isn't a complete spacing liability with Giannis if he's just running around like a maniac out there cutting, screening, getting put-backs, and running DHO's.

Donte still belongs on a bench somewhere
