I know it is only one game but Bud looked more like Mike Woodson than Red Holzman tonight.

bucks are so screwed when they play the warriors. Look how the refs are giving kawhi respect when he guards giannis. they are going to give that same respect to iggy, kd and draymond and just let them play physical defense.

Bog was the only Buck I felt was dialed in. The rest of them were bumbling and discombobulated. And Giannis deferred too much.

We just like to give each other a hard time. It's more fun than most of the games we watch

And Wingo's head is extremely hard like a cement block encased in lead. You can just throw stuff at his head and watch things bounce off it. The possibilities for amusement with Wingo are endless

Not sure if that should be classified as a block or an ultra-violent windmill hack


Right. Look bad until I saw the replay. Good call.

Welp, that was a fun game to watch!

Relatives were visiting and niece's boyfriend an alum of Kawhi's university, so he was rooting big time for the Raptors/Kawhi.
