Can we get AJJ and Livingston to the game quick? Much rather watch AJJ have some fun.

Teams with much less talent like Wizards have much better chemistry than us

How soon do we find out about anything going on behind the scenes?

Why in the world can't Dame throw lob passes like Morant does? Especially when he has one of the best finishers in league history on his team. Morant is young and has spent half his career suspended, yet looks like a massively better playmaker than Dame.

The day after someone writes an article criticizing Doc. Then Doc will give you hints of what it is while blaming everyone else.

pointing the finger at him for not being able to fix a broke ass team that had just canned their coach is more my point. it was a horrendous situation for him to arrive into.



I didn't blame him for not fixing the team, I'm saying he's not blameless since he essentially punted an individual season by not staying in shape.


he looked pretty good out of the gate i thought... and he played more minutes than any year of his last 5.

stotts quitting this **** show before it even started was probably as big a factor as anything imho

i just think trying to put any blame on him whatsoever youre just looking at the wrong guy. he had a bit of a down year shooting but i think part of that is not having a single guy who can set a pick and roll or play off him. he was forced to pull **** out of his ass in ways he never had to perhaps since his career started.

i dont think his previous offseason is a thing. its a thing you can say but it didnt play much of a role

our team is broken. he showed up to a horrendous situation and his bullets couldnt solve it. thats how i look at it anyway

Doesn't matter who we play, every single team creates EASY three point opportunities on us.

I bet pretty soon. This is going to be one of, if not the most, talked about stories in the NBA.

We'll see an article with a leaked statement from an unnamed bucks employee soon.

NBA media has been searching for their Giannis story for years. They finally may have found the angle they need.

Doc not playing anyone younger than 28 is so gross.

Dame failing to "silence his haters" was the easiest bet going into this season.

Lol

I wonder if trying to play younger and keep up with their quickness might work?

Nah...

The 2010 squad if Bogut doesn't get hurt would smoke this current Buck's squad.

That possession! LOL. Delon dribbling aimlessly and then Pat last second bad shot.
