I'm taking care of Chicago, Charlotte, Indiana, Washington and maybe Atlanta if drops.

Before so many of his defensive plays lately were getting called fouls. If they're finally going to let him use his size/strength and be physical we're going to be tough to score on.
I've been saying this the past 3 games. There are COUNTLESS fouls on Drummond that I've seen and he's not getting called on them. Now the only teams that can match us are the ones that have bigs. Otherwise it's pumbling time. Crazy part is he's more confident in his FTs and that makes a tremendous difference even if it's 20% increase. I'm calling it now. Drummond is going to DESTROY Monroe on Saturday and it will be hilarious! It won't be fair. I expect a 20 reb game Saturday. Harris has got Giannis.

Wow. Someone needs to tweet him this ASAP!! Please someone remind him of what Middleton said. It'll be a guaranteed win if he remembers.

Bucks have talent, length, and can play soundly defensively . Hope with the long break there is no lull in the team. I absolutely have loved the energy they have brought past 3 games.
Tobias like playing against the Bucks. He have some great games against them.

The best thing about this game was how focused Andre was. Great effort defensively & on the boards and good body language.

Harris looks terrific. But the other key to the team going forward was Bullock's play. If this guy shoots well, he's a perfect 3 and D player for us. There is no physical reason why he shouldn't be an outstanding 3 point shooter. SJ's injury might be a blessing in disguise, because in two weeks when he's back, we might have both of them in the rotation. We'll see, but that was hopeful.

I was sitting here trying to remember if Bullock played in the Cleveland game. Because that's the only way this statement would make sense.
I'm not talking about how well he played or didn't, in that Sixers game he was dribbling around like he thought he was the best player on the floor. Like he was an all-star. I think it's because the Sixers are really bad but I've never seen Reggie's demeanor like that

Totally disagree.

RJ had a live handle and was play making. I'd rather our pg be confident than hesitant

These past two games have showed how great we can be if we just simply give effort... Drummond was an absolute game changer on both ends of the floor. If we keep this type of energy and effort we might just make the playoffs. The ball movement has been great as well. We need to stick with those things if we want to keep winning. KCP looks to be back on track too. Harris has been everything I dreamed of. Even Reggie Bullet showed what he can do. I'm hoping he can keep up that shooting and be our 3 and D back up SG of the future. We will see though. This offseason we just need to get a backup PG and transition SJ to the starting lineup and Morris to the bench.
Jackson/Caldwell-Pope/Johnson/Harris/Drummond is going to be elite
