We're tanking right, trying to avoid 6ers and heat?

I would be, why deal with that in the 1st round. Just tank all the way to 4th seed and play the banged up Knicks.

I bet since Brook sat and Gianni played a good amount of minutes he'll be sitting for this one.

Nothing matters until we win a playoff round with Dame. After that, it's a chip.

Still think we have a good chance at a ship. Just need this weather to turn and the this team will come alive. Nothing more invigorating than Spring time in Milwaukee.

Beas in the last 14 games
11.3 PPG, 3.5 RPG, 1.2 APG, 36.4 FG% on 11 attemps and 31.7 3PT% on 8.6 attemps...
How bout you wiggle your ass on back to the bench.

We (or at least I) knew we'd be in trouble if a couple of those young guys didn't develop into alright rotation guys and they haven't.
Start AJ Green. Do something different. We've seen 30 games of whatever the hell this is and we're a game above .500.

Nobody ever listens. When we signed him I told everyone he was streaky. We had Laker fans come on here and talk about how he would be lights out for two weeks (or longer) then ice cold for two weeks (or longer). I get it that most jump shooters are streaky but Beasley is an extreme case. When he is hot it is fun, when he is cold it is frustrating. When he was on fire for a large period of the season I mentioned this and said "Remember these times when he gets cold" and I was called a Beasley hater. I loved the signing and still think he can be a key piece to this postseason.

I was never a fan of the signing and even more against the idea of how the Bucks wanted to use him. It never made sense to play him next to Dame in some POA defender role. If I was Horst, I'd have a very hard time not saying something to the coaches about giving him a much shorter leash. How do the coaches themselves not see him crater this team? The streaky shooting types are fine to bring off the bench in some circumstances when our offense gets stagnant with the bench lineups but having him be a key cog on this team is dead on arrival.
Edit: Also the amount of posters here that thought he'd be an upgrade over Grayson was way too high

Beasley "cratering" the team/lineups is an absolute myth. You can prefer a better defensive guy in there and that's fine. I'd prefer Bev (if healthy) or even Pat in the closing 5 (given his chemistry with Giannis) for crunch time purposes, but people have loved to try and make Beas this lineup killing scapegoat all season and they continue to look incredibly stupid doing so. It's 100% false.

If Giannis isn't in there holding every bodies heads above water, then yes, beas will collapse this defense every time he's out there and his shooting isn't enough to keep him in his spot. Do you want him in a closing lineup at the end of games? Saying people look incredibly stupid because they don't agree with your bad take is very on brand for you.

Looking forward to the 4th quarter scramble where we can’t stop a bad team from scoring and we’re struggling to match their energy. Fun stuff. Bucks in 6
RIP Kobe Forever. GOAT 8-24. Long Live Giannis

I can't fathom caring so much about not being wrong that I'd willingly look at all the evidence and numbers and be like, "No, I'm still right and he's a major problem". Like, I didn't think AJ Green was really worthy of rotation minutes 3-months ago, but hey, I was wrong. Ironically, I wasn't even a huge fan of Beasley in the starting lineup initially either (pretty sure I thought Marjon should've started), but he's pretty much been the perfect compliment offensively to the starters and one of the absolute best bargain signings of free agency considering he's arguably been the best corner-3 dude in basketball this season on a **** vet minimum contract. I find it hard for this to even be a debate.
