I'm surprised at the number of people saying they're not going to watch tonight.

Jason Kidd probably asked someone to hit him when he was making up the starting lineup so he could "accidentally" start GP2.

Snell must be in the doghouse for not playing good enough defense

Jason Kidd gave up on spreading the floor for Giannis.
GP2 and Bledsoe with Middleton being the only guy shooting the 3 in above average efficiency if he is set exactly on the three point line.
On another universe(Philadelphia) Convigton and JJ Redick are 8/10 3PA at the half!
An elite and smart defense like Utah's will have a blast at packing the paint tonight..

My opinion: They're grooming Tony Snell to be a second unit scorer long term. The hope (long term) for me is he'll be able to be more aggressive and score in bursts against second units. A michael cooper or shaun livingston, a 6'8. 8-10ppg, combo guard off the bench type. He's showed some more aggressiveness with the ball early on, hopefully it will increase against second unit players. I'd really like him in that role and this is "ositionless basketball" ... Maybe a Shaun Livingston with a 3 point shot is the role they are grooming him for. He did play some Combo guard in high school.
Putting on more bulk and strength each off season will be key...he did it this off season and has been a bit more aggressive taking it to the hole and finishing with contact. But I'm just guessing.....

This definitely has the scent of some sort of nepotism. He’s Gary’s son, and Kidd’s gotta help out his pal Gary. It’s like getting a buddy’s son a factory job, except with million dollar salaries.

GP2 is not an NBA player.

GP2 thing is weird, do not think it has anything to do nepotism though. Kidd just isn't very smart

Definitely a masochist. I can't not watch to be honest. It's a gift and a curse

We still are 5-2 since we got Bledsoe fwiw. Yeah Kidd is a moron, but not everything is bad.

Exactly, thing's aren't exactly bad but the expectations have raised significantly with the Bledsoe trade. Losing to the Mavs has drilled a hole in some of our brains that this team will never be good no matter what

Re: Milwaukee (9-8) @ Utah (8-11) FS-WI 8pm CT
I can somewhat understand wanting to strengthen your bench by putting Snell there, but why would you put another non-shooter into the starting lineup? Bledsoe has been terrible shooting the ball lately, and you're only making it tougher on Giannis by shrinking the space you can create for him. Stick Sterling Brown out there. He can at least shoot the 3 and you're not asking him to do anything more than play defense and shoot 3's.

Right? It's not like we've never seen bad basketball as Bucks fans. I guess it just hurts more now that our expectations are higher-- I get that. But jeez. If I watched all those meaningless Tuesday-night-in-February-2008-vs-New Jersey-type games, I'm definitely not going to stop watching NOW.
