I thought Boston won the Dame trade tho.

Coaching staff needs to sort out what we're doing defensively with Bobby on the floor. Whole team had bad stretches in this one but his minutes stuck out like a sore thumb. Only rotational player to be in the minus on the court.

Random note, the Jrue cosplay's got me believing in Livingston's defense.

I double-taked (took?).

That was some of the worst defense I've ever seen him play.

Was a great statement game by the team.

Giannis needs to be put back up in that MVP race by the media. He’s been the forgotten man. No longer after tonight.

I said it in the game thread but will repeat it here:

Khris Middleton has turned into a poor man’s Larry Bird in the best way possible.

Yeah I'm coming around on trading Bobby. We really, really don't need the brand of "instant offense" he brings on this iteration of the team.

What can be done to fix Bobby on D? Does he need to get in better shape, get a little lighter?

I never got on the "bash Beas" bandwagon. I'm not about to be the captain of his fan club yet, either. I'll just say he's trying his ass off on defense. Doesn't mean he's "good" but the effort is there. He's just kind of a half-tick slow to react sometimes.

We already knew he could shoot that thang. Hopefully he keeps it up in the biggest games. Tonight had a first-round playoff game atmosphere and he showed out.

makes no sense. you've got two western teams playing, put them at the usual 9pm slot and put us at 7. Or if you want to get crazy, 8 and 6. 4?

Malik Beasley has fit in so well with the Bucks. While I nitpick over his specific role there is no doubt Beasley's shooting has been a major boost to the roster. The Bucks aren't going to shoot over 60% from 3 very often but even despite the insane shooting variance you have to feel awesome about this offense. The defense is still eh but a very solid win tonight for sure. Moving onto the Semifinals!

No star has ever been more disrespected.

It was horrible. From his first minute to his last minute. Just a layup line when he was out there.

the board what now?

would've assumed you were here but the first 10ish games was just constant Beas bashing. it was relentless. I legit checked out for a while as it was so over the top.

Theoretically this should be annoying from a guy that wealthy but instead it's hilarious.

Trading him for Tari Eason is a good start
