i would assume if we do have injuries we pick people up at the deadline.

just find it annoying how bad the bottom 3rd of the roster is. not really a single guy thats a sterling brown or even dj level player imo

I dunno man, I feel like you're searching for a way to be down on the team. Not feeling it at all. Optimists win. :D

completely off on that. were gonna win another one this year i feel weirdly sure of it.

i love our top 9 almost like i love my children and thats all that matters for that title.

but... its a long season and theres gonna be alot of blowouts and as far as the fan experience goes pre playoffs this bottom 5 has literally nobody i dig to watch play basketball. im not sure i can ever remember pulling for this team and not a guy has any upside besides maybe nwora and he grates me watching him.

probably shouldnt have even brought it up but the last two games exposed it for me. id hoped gk and mamu and nwora and bryant were gonna give us something like that. maybe a nice reclamation in hood. oh well.... anyways. no big deal theres no little story brewing anywhere 10-15 on the roster is all

I think Mamu will give us fun minutes in the regular season. We have more guard play now, should be easier to sub in borderline guys and make them useful.

But Giannis was a beast on the offensive end and we still lost by double digits to primarily the Mavs’ second and third units.

Jrue (32)/Hill (16)
Allen (28)/DDV (20)
Midds (32)/Pat (16)
Giannis (32)/Nwora (16)
Brook (28)/Bobby (20)

There will be a lot of playing time in 10 man rotations during regular season for all the depth pieces and I’m not even counting the games that all the starters rest. We ‘ll see who will qualify for the 8-9 man playoffs rotations.

Jason kidd with glasses was an interesting look. It was like he was Clark Kent out there and I just couldn't find the super awful previous coach of the bucks.

I'm guessing some idiot mavs fan.

I love that he counted to 6-7 and Giannis already threw the ball up.

And then He stopped counting because it was so pointless with the new FT routine. :lol:

I wonder if that's going to happen all year.... Opposing fans remember all the crowds counting during the playoffs and they jump on the bandwagon and realize how stupid it is to count when he's now throwing the ball up faster than some other players. Maybe they'll just keep counting all game and even forget why are they are counting in the first place.

I love the new FT routine.

Holds the ref, does the pantomime throw, takes a deep breath, one dribble and throw.

No 5-8 dribbles, no awkward pauses before or during the throw.

It's much more fluid.

Kidd gameplanned for a preseason game because he's a fragile boy. No worries for us.

The offseason was pretty good, but the Hood signing was a waste. He never should have gotten a guaranteed deal.

you keep saying this like you're a M.D. and have seen his imaging, etc. and the Bucks just signed him as a whim without doing due diligence on his health.


What are you trying to do here? Deny he tore his achilles?

He was awful last year and is wasting a roster spot.

Obviously the Bucks thought he'd be able to bounce back and contribute. Because that frequently happens with achilles injuries these days. Admit it, you just hate his existence on the roster because it messes with your "Nwora is going to be playing a ton of minutes," mind space.

Can you give me an example of a player who came back from an Achilles tear, was awful, but then got his again?

the first result when I googled gave me these players: Elton Brand, Kobe Bryant, Rudy Gay, Wesley Matthews, Chauncy Billups, and Dominique Wilkins.

Not a singlel one of them was awful like Hood was last year. Any good examples? Hood was -1.2 VORP last year. He needs to improve significantly just to become a replacement level player.
