FWIW, our Def RTG and Off RTG are top 10 in the last 10 games. It's been an easier schedule, of course. But that's good to see.

It really was just as simple as benching Patty C. Dude has some good years for us, but now, like Thanasis, the team can help him transition to coaching if he wants it.

Everyone else is playing better ball. Patty C wasnt the reason Brook, Trent, or Bobby couldn't make a 3 to start the season.

Absolutely spot on ffs the bucks lost 2xs to the cavs by 2 n 1 point with trent going like 3-18 from 3 or there about.1st game he was 1-10 ffs he does his average we win both those games.Patty C has nothing to do with that.Board picks out 1 guy n just keeps blaming that 1 guy for everything

You'd said he'd be our 3rd best player, and instead he's our 3rd best SG. It's cool he's found his 3 ball, he'll get open looks playing with Giannis, but he's below replacement level and is nothing more than a catch and shoot player.

Get the hell out of here hes our best SG comeon dude he had a brutal start but fu.. that hes way bettrr thsn ajax n green.Your man love for ajax n green is just plain wierd

AJ Green love is well justified

I would like to feel comfortably up 20 with 7 minutes to go. Good win otherwise. Ball and Miller were fireballs the entire 4th quarter

PG Graveyard · Post #68 » by **PG Graveyard** » Sun Nov 24, 2024 1:54 pm

Giannis also is up to a full 2 point lead for the scoring title. Just a consistently dominant player year in and year out consistently.

It's really good to see considering we play our best against the best.

OK, I'll listen, what's Trent better at than Green? It's not shooting, defending, or passing.

You mentioned 3rd best besides green you gonna say ajax is to.
Trent 3 pt shooting is over 40% agsin he had a brutal start to this year.
You think green is better lol bit the fact that you think trent is a replacement level player n not ajax or green is fu.. delusional.Trent is not a liability on D n his career says that .He can shoot as good as green can.

JayMKE · Post #72 » by **JayMKE** » Sun Nov 24, 2024 2:25 pm

GTJ has looked fine after the rough start but the way AJ gets his shot off is special

Green is a career 43% 3 point shooter with a special release. Trent had never shoot 42% in a season.

Doc has established a pecking order defensively of who gets the toughest assignments, and its Ajax, Green, then Trent. FG% against stats mirror that pecking order.

You could maybe make the argument that Trent is better than Ajax, but as far as this teams needs, Ajax is more valuable because he also contributes on the glass, something Trent has been allergic to through out his career.

Trent is worth having, but he's a depth piece.

It's a low bar, but this was easily Bobby's best defensive game of the season. He gave timely help numerous times, and had 2 big blocks.

Don't think I've ever seen Bobby have a block like the one where he just swatted it from behind in the 4th (I think). Finally had a "Yes Bobby!" moment on defense.

I like both Trent and Green. The last two games Trent has been the closer.

This is a time for Doc to figure out what he has. If KM is back, there's no way Ajax and Green get 20 minutes a game during the playoffs, unless there are other injuries.

Trent was the closer out of necessity last night. Green fouled out when Ball pushed him on that screen and he fell into the ballhandler. Doc wanted him in badly enough that he challenged the play.

This documentary is nice.

Hopefully we get a part 2 soon. Getting back on the right track recently. Kris back soon.

When Green fouled out trying to stop Ball, I was surprised that Ajax stayed on the bench. Closing with Trent and Prince instead.

Ajax seems to be quicker and more athletic than Trent. The only defensive advantage for Trent is that he is a more disciplined defender and might not fall for some of Ball's foul baiting.
