I agree these idiots who call I wish wouldn't call themselves bucks fans. But it's the same with Packers and Brewers callers 75% of them have no idea what they are talking about.

Literally the only opinion in basketball I care about is the consensus of hard core fans, I don't trust anybody else.

If I want to know something about say the Pistons for example, I'll go to the Pistons forum and ask, and I don't care what their coach, media, PR machine, owners, casual fans or talking heads on TV and radio have to say about it. I only listen to the hardcore fans, for two very simple reasons: they are the only ones that A) I am 100% certain they actually watch all of the games and follow every background story and B) have nothing to sell me and no reason to lie.

Sure there are always a few in there who simply don't understand the game or are just too passionate to think clearly, but I find the consensus usually filters them out and is ultimately correct more times than anybody else.

You admit a guy can't coach and then worry that they'll hire a guy who also can't coach? At least try to get better. Is he Kidd's lapdog?

It’s a legit concern. Yay we fired kidd. 99% of us wanted him gone. Now what? Prunty? Angry Giannis? All legit concerns.

I swear this board would like nothing more than the Bucks to be a soap opera controlled by social media. Nevermind the fact the board is most active while losing.

It might just be worth considering that it’s kind of cool to have multiple radio stations covering the least popular team in the state, even if they don’t tote the realgm line all the time

Oy vey.

Well congratulations on being blissfully ignorant.
That’s how you get into listening to only the news station that tells you what you want to hear. That is a terrible way to go about life. Even if you can’t bear it, you should at least consider listening to both sides. It’s why I tune into “the other news station” a few times a week just to hear what they are saying. Even if I laugh or think it’s a joke, I give them a chance. Not everything on realgm is gospel for God’s sake.

4:10 left in the 3rd. Bucks throw the ball in to Henson who has deep position on Booker (a guard). Henson bobbles the ball, gets overpowered, and Booker leads a fast break the other way.

Henson is so d—- weak. Can’t score on the low block 1 on 1 vs a weak defensive guard.

Giannis is loyal to the core. Remember his "loyalty is in my DNA" comment? He was sad when Drew was fired. He has a HUGE heart. He cares about people.

But he wants to win...bad.

He'll be alright.

I would think he takes it personal. He probably believes its his fault...that he should be better. He doesn't want someone else to fail because he feels like he "failed" jason.

Ding ding.

Well, congratulations for telling another adult what is and isn't appropriate to think. We'll alllllll take this with us to the afterlife. Note to self: when others are sharing their thoughts, it is important to tell them how to think.

Yes, bizarro, pointing out that it might be better to keep your opinions open to more than one resource is telling people how to think. Yikes. Back to bizarro land I guess.

I see that guy on so many brewer and bucks commercials, I always wanted to know his back story. Im thinking of writing some David Gruber fan fiction. Good luck on your date, ambulance chaser!

He's married. (Edit: I did not see the lady friend in question) His wife definitely looks his elder. Don't think she's ever said no to a tanning bed... but by all accounts both are fantastic people. He's got a daughter I believe. Got to work a bit with them when my wife worked at Muscular dystrophy association. He was always at the fundraisers as VIP level donors. Huge sports fan in general. Seemed genuine... not like appearance for appearance sake. I digress. Good win.

Does all this augment the trade possibility? Or did they have this scenario in play as they made inquiries?

I haven't listened to a news station or watched television since 2004. Just the occasional movie or podcast online.

Nope. Listening to both sides and taking a balanced approach is heavily overrated. There is right, and there is wrong, and your chances of figuring out which is which increase greatly by understanding the motives and backgrounds of people who talk to you.

But thanks for your concern

Honestly not trying to be a di*k, but when you start a retort w: "...congratulations on being blissfully ignorant..." don't expect a welcome mat to discourse. Get a grip.

Sparky is predictably being a total asshat, opening his postgame show by asking if Giannis was even at the game.

Steve 'Sparky' Fifer's broadcasts should be prefaced by a warning that listening to him decreases cognitive reasoning ability, and generally accelerates cognitive decline, among most population groups.

They screen the calls... Create Skip Bayless type drama. It is like what american idol use to do... put a bunch of horrible people through to see the judges just for ratings.
