Are we too late to call AJ Whitest Donte? Can you get a shout out from Marques? Novak?

The crux is this: who is more white between Sam and AJ?

I will say this, the AI version of AJ Green will be pre-named the Autobot.

Despite Beas playing with the starters, and AJ Green in a bench role, the Bucks have been better with Green on the floor. Beas has no advantage over him in shooting, and Green is the better passer and defender.

Beas has shot well, but remains our worst option at SG, and eventually his shooting will normalize, making this even more evident.

He has.

I just get tired of the Middleton garbage around here.

Not really comparing them. I just think the Beasley hate has been over the top for what he's giving us.

Literally saw this with my replay at the exact same place. So i would've heard it at that moment on the broadcast, without opening the vid.

You’ve entered the club. Well done.

Still looking for the archive clip from the November 2008 Bucks-Knicks game, where Mike Breen told Clyde Frazier that Joe Alexander’s Bucks teammates call him “Potsie”.

until it normalizes, it isnt evident. and if it isnt evident, then the take is ass backwards and pointless to even make let alone beat a drum over it

i think at this point in the season malik beasley is a pointless discussion other than to be thankful for what hes added for the price we paid. if somebody is a better player than beasley they need to earn it. give aj some conisistent time and if it becomes obvious then he can become the starter that way. im not a big fan of labeling people or crowning them which is what youre doing here

personally i think theres plenty of oppurtunity here for everybody. its a long season. lets draw a conclusion over time. comparing a guy with almost 800 minutes starting....to a guy with 150 of mostly garbage time..... makes their current on/offs irrelevent especially when beasleys are damn near the best on the team to begin with

It's at about 3:28 in the video for those who want to skip through and listen to the shoutout to Supreme from Marques (and confirmation of the Dairy Bird nickname).

If you really think that the guy who shot 35% from 3 last year or anyone else for that matter, is going to shoot 55% from 3 this year, I don't know what to say.

malik is a shooter and shooters have seasons like this. benching them because...."it wont last".... or...."next year"..... is the worst possible thing you can do.

as it relates to beasley....i say.... lets ride this mfer hard

when it ends, and it will.... then we can pick the next guy or make a call then......but only then

its up to aj and marjon and ajax and horst to make sure when it ends we have the next option. until then im fine with the guy... :rockon:

GHOSTofSIKMA · Post #95 » by **GHOSTofSIKMA** » Sun Dec 17, 2023 10:43 pm

id also add there is the slight possibility he could so reinvent his career here he gives us the oppurtunity to bobby portis his ass. imagine that. it IS actually part of the equation.

No, sorry, no one ever hits 55% of their 3s.

Luckily Beasley only makes 46% of his threes so the number might be safe according to the math.

Of course Lisa likes A.J. Automatic. Kudos to Marques for being a diplomat and saying he can get on board with that but that nickname sucks worse than Lisa does.

hes shooting 46% including his slow start. seasons like this for good shooters happen all the time

oct.. 5 games.. .353
nov.. 16 games.. .486
dec.. 5 games.. .510

so hes not shooting 55%. thats a random number you pulled out of your butt not me. its 46% which is still bad ass. his on/offs are thru the roof with it.

so what were debating is benching guys in the middle of absurd heater runs not made believe numbers. real numbers hes 65 out of his last 142. sitting him is a dumb idea. so knock it off with suggesting it. and nobody cares how wrong you were about the guy except for you so stop discussing it

He has.

I just get tired of the Middleton garbage around here.

It's all decent basketball. It's probably about fans' preferences.. if they like running, jumping, dunking, hustling, fast break, putback dunks, etc then they will prefer the young guys.

Eye test alone, the team doesnt look significantly or even marginally better with Midds on the floor. We've seen those little Giannis plays he does don't work when playoff teams can scout us.. the shots Midds takes went to Dame to keep him hot all game is that bad? When guys are finding Dame for 2nd looks and screening for him he takes really good shots and finds open people that I feel like can work in the playoffs and Dame is unpredictable enough Ds won't be able to get a jump on him like they did Giannis and Khris last year.

I don't think Khris has the 2021 gear anymore. Old slow wings should rely on their 3 ball.. give me 28 min and be 6 of 9 from deep every game off true superstar gravity. If there isn't enough gravity on THIS team for that to happen then retire... that simple..also, make dudes take 2 dribbles to get by you.
everyone you're trying to 1v1 against is longer. faster, stronger and more hops than you. Accept your role as shooter or please trade him for anything valuable. Playoffs are exhausting and those long fadeaways will hit front iron like last year.
