Game 45: Raps at Bucks - 1/15/21 - 5:30 - BSWI

Post #1 » by **MickeyDavis** » Fri Jan 14, 2022 8:37 pm

Odd start time. Raps on a back to back, as we were the first time we played them. Last week when the Raps were in town we were without Giannis, Donte, Allen, Hill and Pat (and of course Brook). All but Brook should be playing Saturday night. Jrue on the otherhand is iffy. I'd say he won't play based on Bud's comments last night but I doubt we hear anything definitive until tomorrow afternoon sometime. Trent and Barnes have missed a little time and are questionable for their game tonight. My guess is they both sit against Detroit and both play against us. It would be nice to play well 2 games in a row.

If we can just get some consistency with our line-ups we'll start to play much better regularly. A lot of our troubles (apart from personnel missing) has been the revolving door line-ups.

Is Vanvleet gonna go MVP mode?

We only get up for the big games. I expect a stinker.

He doesn't have that mode. Any good player can get their counting stats up if they play enough minutes. FVV playing the most minutes per game right now, and had another 42+ minutes today, which is just so stupid by Toronto. First game of a B2B, and they are down by 20 in the last quarter, yet he and Siakam both play over 40 minutes.

3 months to the playoffs.
Gonna have to steady the ship soon. And ring the final call for Brook.

Eric Nehm: Asked Budenholzer about Jrue Holiday's left ankle before yesterday's game.
Bud: "I think he is making progress"

Games are going to start mattering quickly. May have to take off kid-gloves minutes sooner than later

Will the Bucks need to amputate Jrue’s ankle?

No idea how this turns out. We crush the Warriors Thursday. Warriors without Klay crush Chicago Friday on a back to back. Raps looked horrible last night against Detroit but they could be lights out tonight.

Giannis 3rd MVP is for grabs. We just need the W’s. So must win.

circled/encerclé

Never liked the Barneys or their fans, but now that they're fading off into the Canadian sunset I have to admit there's a tinge of pity along with the hate.

Nevertheless, 120-104.

Fellow bettors thoughts on a Bucks ATS/Over parlay?

Giannis doesn't care about another MVP. All he wants is another championship, and so should we.

Bud says he won't rule it out. Only time will tell.

Yeah Giannis doesn't care about stats either!*

*7 hours later Giannis is in the game up big with two minutes left blatantly asset hunting for a triple double and immediately sits after getting it.

Giannis wants to be consider an all time great, yeah championships help but so do MVP trophies. He cares.
