Game 23: Pistons at Bucks - 12/3/25 - 7:00 - FDSWI - KPJ IN

[MickeyDavis]

Think we just watched the last of Giannis in Milwaukee.

Holy hyperbole

I said that we'd see an injury take him out until the 15th. There's your injury.

So you think it was fake? He just came back from a groin. They could easily have said he aggravated it in practice and sat him without any theatrics. Simple.

At this point you almost wonder if Giannis is actually even hurt. Maybe he just doesn't want to suit up for the Bucks anymore, but doesn't want to look like a jerk.

Kind of odd that all this trade stuff comes out today and now suddenly he gets hurt early in the 1st quarter a few hours later.

Our crowds have not been very big this season but they've been loud. Kudos to those loyal people.

The Bucks show some hustle, and suddenly the shots start to go in.

I think what RS is suggesting is along the lines of in an overtly shady league anything is Kevin Garnettable.

As far as the game goes, good to see KPJ knock that down. He'll likely pickup his energy now

[MartyConlonOnTheRun]

Yeah, MD is right there are simpler ways to fake an injury. You dont make you ankle roll like that randomly. At some point in the game he could've stepped on a foot and milk it. Also think he cares too much about stats to tank his average like that

[JEIS]

Maybe Darvin Ham will be coach by halftime?

[Matches Malone]

I can't see Giannis going out there and playing up a fake injury like that. I'd question so much about his integrity if that was actually the case. Think he's legit hurt, just horrible horrible timing.

[ShootingtheJ]

Soleus injury again. Giannis knew exactly what it was because he's had this before. Other leg this time.

[blazza18]

I don't believe they've come up with a ruse to fool us but an injury would be a good way for Giannis to not talk to the media. Definitely better ways to do it so it's for sure a real injury.

Think he is saying it is fake, but coming from Gianni’s’ side, not the team’s.

[soxperry]

I cant believe we got kpj for free. I also cant believe he was so bad in LA

[MickeyDavis]

Maybe Darvin Ham will be coach by halftime?

God I hope not

I don't think Giannis is faking an injury.

All I'm saying is that at this point it's not crazy to at least go hmmmmmm.

[GoldenAntlers]

Wasn't Dave Joerger actually an average coach? It would be better than Ham. Hell, what's Prunty up to?

Yes. Don't need a tin foil hat.

[Wonka]

Jericho is our best player

[MrHoneycutt]

don't worry guys -- we stand upon the shoulders of Jericho Sims

[jschligs]

I think it would be kinda BS for Gianni’s to have just now asked about a trade given KPJ just got back and I truly think he will have a positive impact. Giannis only played 3 of the games in our 7 game skid. It would just be weird.
