He's shooting 11% from 3 on the year. He's still a very good player but an awkward fit as a guard.

We can fix him. By the time he's done with us, he'll be shooting 5% from 3.

Yeah lol. My post as being facetious, meaning he would fit right in because he can't shoot 3s to save his life. Great defender, but we have Scottie and now CMB, we good.

Giannis is an idiot being more concerned about his city rightfully booing a garbage 1st half effort on homecourt than he is about the state of an incompetent organization putting a **** roster around him. For some reason he believes in them when they're giving him no reason to and he doesn't want to request a trade because of some loyalty gimmick

Knicks fans are just DYING to get rid of KAT in a deal for Giannis. Keep him as a Buck!

Daniels....ouch. Being worse than Ochai this year is crazy. Or just think...almost 3 times worse than Gradey has been from 3. Woof!

They also play again tonight vs GSW so Brunson might not play on the b2b. If he misses a few games, they play:

GSW
Suns
Mavs
Nets

That could mean a few losses vs teams they are better than usually. Good for Raps.

Except for 3's, Daniels other numbers seem up

This Damn game isn't on any of my Bell Fiber TV channels & I think I don't get it even though I have Prime cos I'm F*cking Canadian.
(Grizz Vs Orlando). I don't want to pirate it.

Pritchard 2 pts and -21 over halfway thru the 3rd.

Why is he an All Star vs us?

Look at Maxey last night against the cavs. Just unreal.

Because Raptor killers can't have poor games against us

Maybe small fast guards give us fits for a reason.

Giannis has to ask out.

4 mins left in 3rd and he has 21 pts...rest of the starting lineup combined has 17.

Kind of sounds like he isn't going to do that. MIP, DPOY, couple of defensive rebounding titles, two MVPs and a title with a Finals MVP later, he doesn't really have a lot left to prove in terms of legacy and all that. So why not earn the fan credit from sticking around?

I can't seem to find Knicks GSW either. Same reason? I have Rogers and League Pass, not there. Open Prime and there's only hockey. Is it not on in Canada?

Tripod · Post #857 » by **Tripod** » Fri Jan 16, 2026 3:23 am

KPJ 0-9, 0 points, -31

Ouch

Isn’t Daniels the type of player this board loves? Great defender, can handle the ball and be a playmaker. **** his shooting

The only 2 levers I can think of that Horst can pull, are to trade that 2031 1st round pick, and fire Doc. Not sure what kind of trade he can make, I can't imagine many teams want any of their players.

An overlooked asset the Bucks have is also the willingness to completely bury themselves in bad money and alot of room under the tax for this year. For example Taureen Prince's expiring of 3.3(out for season) and take back a healthy player making almost 7. They could trade out Kuzma who makes 22 million and 20 for next year and take back Quickly's 32.5 million by just adding a little more salary and probably pick up some 2nds too. Not suggesting we'd want Kuzma but maybe the team we are trading for would, rather than his deal. Not saying they could become contenders doing this, but I could see them adding 2/3 quality rotation players if they are willing to take on bad longterm money and/or help teams out of the tax this year.
