PG Cavs: Bucks Fade

Siefer · Post #21 » by **Siefer** » Tue Nov 5, 2024 2:07 am

Bobby is non-functional and Brook is finally slowing down a bit too much. Huge bummer to find something and then have the old guys come in and blow it.

Coaching out coached itself at the end.

Dame is a shooting guard in point guard's clothing. Let's get another legit ball-handler in the game with him. (AJax and Rollins may develop into that role.)

Brook doesn't fit the style. The most fun and winning basketball was when we played FAST.

Get healthy, Giannis.

Bench Trent, start Green

This is just not a good team, looking closer to Lakers-esqe play in finish than real contender.

This was a fool’s gold game if you are thinking we can turn the corner by just playing the young guys more. Yeah, it was great to see Ajax and Dairy have impact, but they aren’t nearly enough.

The reason the AJs look so good is because the current role players are such a poop sandwich.

I'm still fine with Bobby on this team when he's the 4th option behind Giannis, Dame and Midds and playing 20-22 minutes. When he has to be the guy and play extended minutes, he becomes 'Andre Drummond-esque' in terms of impact.

There was about a three minute stretch tonight where Bucks basketball was fun.

Agreed. I just hope it steers the deer in the direction of which they represent (people who show effort/care/play team ball).

Things were looking goddamn awful there for a bit but credit to them for getting back into it and taking a lead. Another loss though and we are digging ourselves a massive hole to climb out of.

Bonus points if you catch him at half court.

I mean somebody has to come to the ball. It was like the other guys have never seen Dame play. Very slow to recognize the double team.

If he gets double teamed, where is the guy who is being left defenseless and why isn't he following his guy out to make an easy outlet? Just absolutely dumb BBall IQ and the coaching staff doesn't even try to educate.

AJ should be the starter but we promised it to GT, sell high on Big Bobby, call and ask Houston if they still want Brook

Our big men suck.

He was trying to time the block without leaving Mobley or Allen with a free dunk if Garland dumped it off.

Does any nba player pick up his dribble right in the corner let alone a supposed top 75 player of all time?

I mean, it’s a long season? :dontknow:

There’s just something off with this team *right now*. No soul *right now*. Who are these **** guys vibes. You know? They lack identity. Frankly, I don’t think they believe their own bodies can hold up throughout the course of a season. They are at least playing that way. EXTREME HOT-TAKES.

I can only analyze the behavior. Body language. Etc.

I don’t know **** bout schemes and that stuff.

Doc is a problem.

Plossum · Post #35 » by **Plossum** » Tue Nov 5, 2024 2:10 am

Frustrating thing about Doc with Green is the shortness of the leash he gives him. If he's not banging in shots immediately he gets benched and buried for the next 5 games. It would be nice to see what Dairy could actually become if he was put in say the GTJ role.

Dairy and Dame would be a disaster defensively but can it be much worse than it is already?

We just don't have enough competent bodies for the modern NBA game.

Fun game.
Who would know that smaller, younger, athletic guys play better defense than older, bigger, slower guys.
Clearly not the moron who played Bobby all 12 minutes of the 4th quarter.

Brook has been good this year, he is just in the midst of a turd sandwich. I understand if you don't like the slow style but we are the oldest team in the league and will half to score really well in the halfcourt if they want to do anything

BUCKnation · Post #39 » by **BUCKnation** » Tue Nov 5, 2024 2:11 am

Got up 8 and got way too reliant on bobby and dame. Didnt score for 4 minutes and they gradually got the lead.

I bet Bobby brags about his Ring in the locker room.
