Re: Game 36: Bucks at Rockets - 1/6/24 - 7:00 - BSWI
I love Marques, but he carries water for Griffin too much. Two weeks ago he was criticizing fans/media who said the Bucks defense was bad. He said they were getting much better.
Now that they regressed again, he said they need some work, but in Minnesota it took three years, so give it time.
There is no three year window.
Also, I'm tired of Lopez sitting outside for 90% of the offensive possessions. Bud did the same thing. Post him up, especially when Giannis is sitting. He's shooting 32% on threes, yet 48% overall. This isn't hard to figure out.

When Brook is actually at the 3 point line he’s a good shooter

Trash bench, has always been and the reason Giannis is the only superstar being subbed first to play with the scrubs. We need an athletic big man coming of the bench

Giannis and Dame are fine. The coach blows and the team is slow, unathletic and plays with 0 passion.

I'm sure he's toeing the company line, but earlier he seemed to call griffin out, saying houston doesn't have any better players defensively, but they had a good system

I actually like this trade.
Giannis and Jimmy Butler would be what we thought Giannis and Dame would be.
Giannis and Jimmy would be insane in the playoffs.

This is what happens when you play a good defensive team. You can't rely on offense as they've been doing.

Benches are 24 points to 9. We have one of the worst benches in the league.

Super fun knowing that Griffin, Bobby, Pat all suck ass and are actively hurting us, but all 3 will remain on the Bucks and allowed to sink us in the postseason.

I imagined a universe where this trade goes down and then, in Miami, Dame beats the Bucks in the playoffs. Followed by Jrue beating Dame to get to the Finals.rilamann wrote:randy84 wrote:rilamann wrote:Trade Dame to Miami for Jimmy Butler.

The intensity those two would bring would be off the charts.

Houston defense is good. We struggle against certain defenses, and have no other tricks to our bow.

Is their center court logo a dunking astronaut? If so, I absolutely love that
