Bucks haven't exactly been world beaters this season. We could at least make it interesting with Miller, Hayward, and Miles back.

love 'im or hate ‘im you gotta be intrigued by how Miles' game currently looks as well as the team impact of adding a guy who was playing near borderline all star level before the Lean years

Giannis is missing Bucks game tonight, no clue if that is something that could carry into Friday.

I honestly feel we have a better chance at beating the Bucks than a team like the Rockets right now. We always play the Bucks strong for some reason and we'll get a jolt since Miles is back. We'll get an extra jolt if anyone else comes back too like Miller, Hayward or Terry.

Friday will mark 13 days since Rozier was hurt, he has to be getting close.

When Miles was good he was good because he got a lot of favorable calls. I don’t know if he gets those calls anymore.

Also everyone has looked worse under clifford except for the centers. Miles will be no different.

The only difference with Miles back is we will get a bunch of boos and wife beater crowd chants in addition to losing. He isn’t going to fix our problem unless he is going to run the front office and coach the team

This is some kind of bizarre revisionist history. Miles averaged like 4 FTAs his last season for us, not like he was gifted a lot of free points.

Sounds like they plan to play Miles a lot, but the guy is going to be rusty and off kilter for awhile. It could take weeks before this revised group gets things flowing. But fascinating to see how it plays out Friday.

Miles was good for us because he could get to the rim and finish consistently with both hands. He also had playmaking ability, drew defenders, blocked shots and rebounded. Not to mention his chemistry with LaMelo and ability to open up LaMelos game. I don’t want to get too optimistic since it’s been a full season and 10 games, but he was arguably our second best player the last season he was here and made a big difference in many wins. He was an efficient 20ppg scorer too.

Tomorrow is the Baron Davis game. Maybe we should suit him up and play him as backup PG

#Hornets have transferred Leaky Black and Amari Bailey to the @greensboroswarm. Both will debut for the Swarm tonight and the move is also an indicator of Hornets having more depth tonight against Milwaukee.

Miller and Hayward starting. Miles coming off the bench.

I like it. Let Miles acclimate himself as part of the second unit.

Also keeps the negative energy at bay, no need to hear massive boos during opening lineups.

Ashley ain't got no reason to look that damn good

if they don't miss a shot all game then they might be all right

SWedd523 · Post #20 » by **SWedd523** » Sat Nov 18, 2023 12:15 am

Melo ain't got no reason to shoot from that damn far away
