i'm a Brogdon fan, but when he's leading your team in FGA, you're in trouble.

We will forever think the Indy bigs are better than they actually are.

Because we love to flog ourselves for drafting Thon over Domas :D


That was always a bad pick.

This is going to sound like I'm taking a shot at Domas, but I think if he's your 2nd best player, it's going to be hard to win many games. If he's your 4th or 5th best player? Sure. But with the numbers he'll put up, you won't be able to pay him that way. Brogdon is in the same boat imo.

Shooting coaches told him to cut the dribbles to 1, and it looks like they got it right.

It's one more reason why I get so annoyed when people blame him for his decisions on the floor. He doesn't make decisions, he does what he's told by his coaches... NBA fans just not used to it with stars, but it is definitely the expectation from Greek players.


His shot mechanics are different too. He's loading over his eyebrow rather than the top of his head. Much improved.


Not a shot a steger but we should never say 'somehow' with Giannis. He will make it happen.

Bucks have deals for upper level $21 plus a $10 food credit for the T wolves game. 209 is a pretty decent section to sit. Fees are pretty low as well on the bucks site.

Giannis has learned to play with pace, oh my lord, Giannis has learned to play with pace.

Giannis of old always had one thing in mind. Dunk first. Dunk second. Ok, maybe just get to the rim. He's shown, in the early going, that he's willing to not put his head down, know the defense is going to collapse, and hit the open man. He's no longer throwing just to the perimeter. He's consistently finding looks in the dunker spot. Things are moving slower, and that should scare everyone else.

3-1 is impressive with the amount of guys we've had out, and with 3 road games. Nice start to the season, and the next 3 will be at home.

I blame Bud too ,he saw Giannis going berserk and waited a 7-0 run to call a time out

Thanasis was great defending Samponis .
Mamu must try more

The empty stat title is usually reserved for inefficient, volume scorers that don’t play any defense but Brogdon and Sabonis are empty stat guys that have good intentions :lol: They both are unselfish and plays pretty hard and put up near all star numbers but it doesn't translate to wins.

I do think they both could be a #3 or #4 on a really good team or even contender.

This is how I feel about the starting wing we are about to face next game in Josh Okogie. I know the Twolves wish they had a better prospect like Nwora to give those minutes to

They are a fine duo on a team happy to be in the playoff mix.

Sabonis is basically David Lee on D. Turner's about as good a cover for him as they'll get given he can space too but it's not really enough. Brogdon would be awesome in a Manu role off the bench but he shouldn't be your main guy on the perimeter with that set shot and layup game. They just aren't a high level duo. Need a superstar above them.

This was a **** nice win. We're in a good spot if we can get at least Bobby back. What we really need to do though is get Waters back on the team.

Nwora had a legit nice role player game. Maybe he's done trying to prove himself by racking up points and is ready to role. If he can be more of a small ball 4 than Khris has been we're cooking.

Jrue
Allen
Mids
Nwora
Giannis

Nwora hasn't been good but he's been very promising. He's going to make mistakes, but we as a team can afford that. I like his learning curve. Him providing weakside shotblocking is a very welcome addition.

Giannis on: 115.8 off 103.5 def = +12.3
Giannis off: 105.9 off 127.6 def = - 21.7

We really need a big to come back, we're cratering when Giannis sits.

I thought this was a really interesting game.

Bud for most of the game trots out either Khris with scrubs or Giannis with scrubs (sorry I mean non-starters). And on top of that gets tons of minutes with Thanisis and Mamu at the 5. And it worked for most of the game! Then when they get a little tight late in the 4th he puts Khris and Gianni back together to close it out.

I wasn't expected to see a game where that was possible.

That's a job well done if you can ride or die with Khris and a bunch of backups and same with Gianni for most of the game.

Good stuff. This team would dominate with Jru/Brook/Bobby in the lineup.

Imagine Brook/Bobby/Semi are out. So you play Mamu and Thanasis? are you **** kidding me!? The old Realgm would have gone ape **** over that in years past. And here we just breezed through.


Such a cool time to a be a bucks fan.
