Losing to this gutted Lakers team, Luka or no-Luka, would be the cherry on this bad stretch's sundae.

A win tonight helps in the standings but we need to beat some actual teams soon for me to feel at least a little confident in this team. We have a second round ceiling as it stands.

Giannis should have no issue feasting tonight.

That's not it. The Bucks are 5-8 in games decided by 3 points or less. The Lakers are 3-5.

You know who's got the worst record in those games? The Thunder at 0-4. The best, Washington at 5-1. I tried, but it's hard to find a conspiracy theory which comfortably fits these results.

Sort of exciting when you look at it that way.

Luka is in
I'm against picketing but I don't know how to show it.

I know it's mean, but I always find it funny when we get injury report updates on guys who won't play when healthy.

This is probably our most winnable game over the next 2 weeks.

I didn’t realise how brutal our schedule was :lol:

We have only 3 gimmes to end the year (Pels x2, Philly).

Thinking about that year LeBron was on Cleveland during Gianni's ascension and the battles they had. Really thought we'd have years of that, but it was pretty much just that one year that was actually interesting iirc.

I feel like the past 2 weeks the Brook free throw push shot has been as unguardable as the Desmond Mason free throw line hook.

Kuzma needs a 1-2 dribble limit.

We are getting cooked again but another opponent is missing great looks.

Team seems disinterested in guarding the 3 point line again. Late on every ball swing. Thank god Vincent can't hit anything right now.
