AJJ needs to play 30 mins a game the rest of the season if we want to have any title hopes. Hope AG can wake up.

Jrue's been really average the last 2-3 games for Boston.

He's gotta be feeling contact that just isn't there and it's messing with him? Has been this way the last few years. Also his touch can never be trusted.
You guys need anti-depressants. He's largely taken solid looks, just missed about 3-4 makeable shots. He got Pat, Payne and Dame open looks if i recall that missed. My beef is the lack of hustle on defense.

Amazingly Kendrick Perkins was right in his analysis in that Bucks are still looking to establish an identity.

They looked much better with MJB and Andre out there.

let's look at it in the most positive way possible:

Giannis/Dame/Khris combined: 7 of 29. We are down 14.

Play Dre, trade for Caruso, let them run wild alongside Dame/Giannis, profit.

I want it noted that I was team Middleton come off the bench and be our 6th man since the Dame trade. With his minutes restriction this should have been happening from the jump.

Hated the signing when it happened , always wanted to get younger and quicker. But yet we spent a lot of money on a guy who never seems in shape and as of late can't stay healthy ! Best thing to is to dump his contract asap ! Hope he proves me wrong.

PG Graveyard wrote:Honestly with this shooting discrepancy we should probably be down a lot more. It’s within reach right now if Giannis and Dame can get it going and they cool off

It sucks right now but big picture wise that's encouraging.

We played our worst while Boston with all their guys out there played at their ceiling and we're still in the game.

That and he's terrified to shoot.

As bad as his defense was it actually felt like he killed us more by passing up good shots.

The shooting thing tonight is weird. He's deferring wide open looks

I'm actually really encouraged by what I saw in the first half. Obviously we need to do the usual simple things like make wide open layups, but those aren't things that would be a chronic problem. We know Marjon and AJJ need to continue to expand there role, but clearly they are up to the task. Giannis and Dame had no problem getting their shots.

They have scored at will when he is on the floor.

i vote lillard, ajax, marjon, khris, giannis.

hide khris ass on porzingas or horford. if they set the screen which they would you pressure the dribbler and force the pass back to the pop which i would trust getting back to with the smaller guys

theyll pick and try to force the switch but i trust khris to show back to a shooter better than i do lopez.

if they post porzingas and horford up on khris then you take youre medicine but if we doubled immediately i think we could make it work

If the Celtics go up 30, i fully expect Doris Burke to start taking off articles of clothing and making lurid gestures towards the Celtics bench.

Anti-depressants?

I'd argue they haven't been makeable shots in this matchup. And the question should be why?
