All the folks that keep dunking on and doubting Scottie are the same ones always defending Masai, the same Masai who just traded away the old guard for being low ceiling and keeping Scottie. I always imagine how they manage to come to terms with the two diametrically opposed feelings in their brains.

Masai is always right, but he did this thing I don't agree with, but he's always right, but he did this thing I don't agree with. Like a robot trying to divide by zero.

Good job winning an argument against the evil you make up in your mind :lol:


The vast majority of Scottie haters are from Team Treadmill. We know why you guys hate Scottie. You see him as responsible for the dismantling of the old treadmill core. And if he leads us to success, it'll be confirmation that tanking works (and that's a reality many fans don't want to face).


Those posters I don't like? They probably don't like this thing I like. And they're probably all the same. Submit post.

That's cute.

In the meantime, in the land of here and now (15 years from his one and only championship off on the back of a great roster and multiple implosions and 3-1 playoff comeback losses later), Bucks have losing record since Rivers took over and he's already starting to throw his players under the bus blaming them for the losses.

Never has any coach milked the lone championship for all its worth. There's a good reason why many point to this as his probable last chance at being a head coach ever again.

yeah yeah cute enough


he hasn't won any dunk contests though so is he REALLY that good?

Although, I can't argue with your logic of blowing up the font on something you wrote earlier to act like it enhances your point. Airtight case you've got there.

He was having a great time with the American media and goofing around rather than being the robotic Kawhi Leonard personality he has been forcing here since season 2, which doesn't suite his personality.


Wrong, it's the American chocolate bars.

Not really a new phenomenon here. It happened a couple of years ago.

Is anyone mad Scottie made it? I think at most some people are questioning if it was truly warranted, but no one is mad about it. (unless I completely missed something)
What an absolute failure and disaster this franchise is, ran by one of the most incompetent front offices in the league.
