Game 25: NBA Cup Semis: Bucks/Hawks - 12/14 - 3:30 - TNT

[Balls2TheWalls]

He has 1 rebound, 2 turnovers and 3 fouls

And I believe those fouls directly turned into 7 Trae Young FTAs.

Play green over AJ jax blows wtf brings nothing to the table passes on layups see nothing special in his D fu.. that

Ajax D and rebounding have been a big part of why we're on pace to hold a serious offense to under 100.

Got to believe Daver is listening on the radio or something. Can't have eyes on the game and not see how **** important he is in making us appear to be athletically adequate with all the statues in our rotation.

[MickeyDavis]

Green needs more than 10 minutes in the second half.

[KidA24]

They just showed 3 Capela screens and each one he put his arms out and shoved before AJax made contact.

Yeah, that's a foul.

[Balls2TheWalls]

Bucks shooting horribly but I got to hear from the pundits that the Hawks are shooting horribly and are about to blow us out because they will go from shooting badly to well? Does anyone actually watch the game?

They can't be counting those rebounds right I think. He's had at least 3 or 4 boards from what I've seen.

Surprised he only has one rebound

[rilamann]

Middleton accepting that he's a role player now and being a star in his role has me incredibly optimistic.

This team has the potential to be incredibly good in the 2nd half of the season if they trade Dame.

You're right. Checked another source, he has 5

[Bernman]

FTA differential went from 14-4 to 19-10. They aren't even shooting well from the line. We just have a bad free throw shooter getting 8 of those 10. Hopefully we can regress to the mean on 3 point shooting. 26.9% is not going to get it done in a lot of games.

Playing Dairy more would seem to help. He sat for a long time. He's 3-5 & the rest of the team is 4-21. Would it be illegal to play Green in the same lineup as Ajax? Doc thinks so. It's over max capacity of one developing player at a time.

I think if he plays 30 minutes a game that he is going to need to be able to score on his own still also. The way the team plays around him is a crazy difference from when it is just Giannis and Dame on the court. It is clear he is the highest IQ player on the court for us.

Ajax had 5 rebounds, 2 assists, and just 1 turnover in the 1st half .

Not sure where you got your numbers from MD.

He has 5 boards, 2 assists, 1 steal and just the 1 turnover (with 3 fouls).

We were shooting open 3s with guys who are good 3 point shooters. I think Dame missed 4 with no one near him. I think Bobby and Khris both missed ones where no one even ran out on them. It will come, for sure. Today though? Doc going away from the hot hand is just a bad call. AJ Green is going to start to create gravity with how he shoots the 3 and he has to be on the court for more than 10 minutes.

[MickeyDavis]

Green played 32 against Orlando. Not sure why he only got 10 in the first half.

I'm happy with a 6 point lead though.

Yup, I corrected it a few posts up

[Balls2TheWalls]

Running offensive sets for Taurean Prince is some unhinged garbage.

[Bernman]

Get Prince out of the effing game! He's making stupid decisions on o & getting ripped for boards.

[humanrefutation]

I'm not sure an off balance jumper from Prince is the best play to start the half.

How 'bout two of them?
