I think twirl mentioned it, but I just noticed that MD is now a global mod. How did that happen? Does that mean he'll be gone more looking at other boards? Do we have more uncensored time to attack one another now?

Mo is playing one heck of a game so far 11pts on 5/7 plus 5 ast 2 stl and a block this is how i expected him to play look for the big men in the post and just let his points come to him cause they will be there esp. with the post up and kick out

also what a 2 game span w. bell i like to see this reminds me of last year

Redd injured is where Simmons and Bell making the exact same shots they have been missing all season happens... Who knew?

exactly. but does their confidence gain a boost from redd not being on the floor or is it all coincidence?

Yeah I mentioned it. I think it means he can lock topics and stuff on any board now. I'm not sure that means he'll be spending more time on other boards though.

I don't believe in coincidence

Someone should tell that little kid eating the ice cream that wearing Under Armour in something where you're not participating in a sport makes you look like a douche

I think it has to do more with everyone gaining more confidence because they know that they stand a good chance of actually being involved on offense when Redd isn't playing....hopefully Redd is out for at least a few more games

yea i believe it does go up because they know there will be more shots for them because there isnt the worry of redd chucking up 25+ shots a game

Also when they make move to get ball they get ball. They can play basketball now. Normal basketball

Well I guess Redd not being on the court has completely destroyed Yi's confidence to make wide open shots then... Considering he has barely made a shot since Redd has been sidelined.

Is it just a coincidence? Or does Redd need to be in the starting line-up for Yi to be productive?

Ted Davis interviewed LK before the game. Discussed Bogut's good offensive game against Bobcats.

LK said confidence is a big part of it. In the past, Bogut would get a couple of shots and not score, and they'd quit going to him. Now they're being more creative, there's multiple actions. Added some plays like going to Bogut on the first side and if he doesn't get it they go to him on the second side, trying to get the defence ragged. Said it isn't a short-term deal, they'll continue to go to him.

So what happened to the rumour that Bogut was told not to shoot so much? And why isn't simple reposting a part of the deal?

This is a great statement. So many times when Redd has the ball guys make cuts and move only to have Redd act like he can't get them the ball. Eventually movement stops and the offense sputters and Redd gets to chuck.

Now, when guys move and get in good position to get the ball they're getting it.

Quickest TO in history.

[LUKE23]

The Bucks aren't a better team without Redd, but they are not even close to how bad a team should be without their best player. I think that says a lot.

yi less so, he's gone through more of a roller coaster ride than most. he's up and down regardless. bell had been stone cold all season. simmons too.

[WEFFPIM]

Bogut is brutal moving with the ball

[LUKE23]

Yi didn't move his pivot foot.

[Chuck Diesel]

Yi is playing terrible
