This is the biggest 'must-win' game in the history of the NBA, including the Finals, and if we hit 120-104, that's an omen that we win it all this season.

Anything else and we're lottery-bound.

It'd be way more fun if they were full-go right now but I'll take ramping up over a hamstring pull or calf strain that causes one of them to miss 6 weeks

Yup, conditioning should happen in a controlled environment, not in games.

Huh ramping up minutes to me is conditioning in a controlled enviroment.How many players work their asses off during the iff season only to not be in game shape when the games start.Thats why every team other than the bucks have had their starters playing upper 20s to lower 30 mins as we end the PS so thry are game ready come next week.
See it happen all the time a player may be in great condition but not be in basketbsll condition.Thats why these teams get their players up to 30 mins a game ....again i would be surprised if buck starters dont play high mins tonight

It's preseason guys. Some of y'all are in playoffs mode.

I'm trying my hardest to stay chill with everything.....but with the Dame trade, it really is "all in" time.

This is my final look before my auction draft Sunday night results in me spending over half my budget on Giannis, Dame, and Khris.

If you stay ready, you don't have to get ready.

As the old hats say: Work hard, Coast (in the regular season) hard.

The real question is will Thanasis out play RoLo and look like he could actually play regular season minutes AGAIN?!

More Rolo in the high post. Let him cook.

I am hoping to see our planned starters for the regular season play together at least a quarter. Same for the planned first tier bench.

So: Brook Giannis Khris Malik Dame: starters

1st tier bench, not sure here for all the names:

Portis, mjb, Pat, Robin, Payne, Jae.

Thanasis and Ajj will also play. Would like to see Green get more than a few short minutes.

Looking forward to the game. We have a strong starter group and a strong bench.

At least a quater times that x2.5 cant go into the season with your starters only averging 20 mins a game when every other team already has their starters in game shape by going 30 mins last 2 games.Buck starters better be near 28 tonight

Over/under 1.5 RoLo jump hooks before the "Fire Bu--" errr I mean "Fire Griffin" chants break out.
