Absolutely agree.

Wow the way things are shaping up I’m just hopeful the Bucks can keep it competitive. And I’m guessing ALL of the sports pundits isn’t be wearing the same green glasses as me! Lol. look obviously at this point there’s four really good teams left. I fully expect this series to be a battle. I have yet to hear of a sportswriter picking the Raptors (correct me if I’m wrong), and OBVIOUSLY that means nothing. BG I don’t think you’re implying this, but just checking, are you saying if the Refs hadn’t called the series different the Celtics would’ve won? And HoosierHoopster are you implying Giannis isn’t the best inside the paint in the NBA right now? And if so who is? i think it might be a bit unfair to assume I’ve got green glasses on and you’re completely objective. 🧐

Actually I didn’t get to see the first half. It was Kellerman and Smith that said they didn’t play that well until the fourth quarter. Didn’t shoot well from outside, Middleton was held to half his average and Bleadsoe absolutely did NOT play well. Thank goodness Lopez got back to form. But I’d hardly say if two of your top three players didn’t produce even close to their averages that you couldn’t say the Bucks played great. On the flip side Lowery gave more than what you can expect from him for probably the rest of the series and the Raptors controlled the tempo and played great for three quarters. I suppose you ca. Soon it both ways. Idk.

Ummm...not to change topics, but ah...Bucks played pretty average and Raptors played super well for three quarters and Bucks still won. So I still like my Bucks chances... 🤷🏻‍♂️😎

They’ve gotta keep that group together now.

I’m the Bucks fan here and if we can get to finals I want KD back bad

That is SUCH a good idea

As a Bucks fan I just want to say I didn’t think they played at all to their potential offensively against the Celtics. We missed a lot of open threes. Just one example was how poorly Lopez shot in that series. I think he made 1 three the whole series. If that happens again we’ll lose. If we get back to shooting like we did all season long and against the Pistons I love our chances to beat the Raptors.

Honestly I completely agree.

Here’s a discussion starter...who from the 70s,80s and 90s would’ve blown up in today’s rules and what guys from today could’ve still been really good back then? i’ll start...Draymond green could’ve done well back in the 90s. I think pistol Pete would’ve had a hay day with these rules.

Stockton and Malone were SO stuck together idk any two players were more dependent on each other making the other so great. Was never a Jazz fan but OMG those two had chemistry an honors class couldn’t figure out. Stockton might have done more with less athletic ability than any other player ever outside of maybe Bird. His IQ was off the charts.

Kidd a good shooter?

Anyone who stands up you lebron will create a loss loss situation. Unfortunately

I’d love having a beer with you and talking sports! But this one I’m gonna disagree on. I’m sure people did say that at some point but when that player wasn’t playing defense someone else WAS. The game is determined on both ends and if you’re SUCH a bad defender that the other team literally does everything they can to switch and to rotate to get YOU to defend the ball because they know they can TORCH you with almost anyone on the court, I think that has to at least be considered into how good of a player you are overall. I’d argue John stockton was a better defender than Curry and he certainly wasn’t as quick.

You’re right leadership wise he obviously must be amazing to balance all those egos. I guess I just haven’t seen or heard a lot of wise basketball IQ statements. Obviously he can’t be dumb or he wouldn’t have respect of his players which he clearly does.

That’s interesting enough I’m gonna chew on that a bit...

I love the guy personally. I actually liked him as one of my favorite players when I was in HS (odd I know). But I have to admit when he does pressers and when he’s mic’d Up in the huddles I’m NEVER impressed with what comes out of his mouth X’s And O’s wise. Maybe just me but he always seems to just bathe his players with compliments and say such obvious things in huddles. Maybe he’s got such a talented team he just needs to keep them relaxed and not say much. I know Jackson was similar but he created an entire offense and always “appeared” more of a brilliant mind. And popavich showed he could win with tons of different players playing tons of different roles even changing as they aged. I just don’t see Kerr in their league at all.

You really think you can say he’s top ten ever right now? So if god forbid he was killed in a car wreck people would say the body of his work is top ten EVER? Idk if I could go there yet. But maybe I’m not seeing it clearly. What about his defense? Heck for everyone...it seems like half of players games anymore don’t even matter in people’s eyes anymore. If you average 30 a game you can be a deplorable defender and give up 30 on the other end and people still think you’re great. Haven’t been able to figure that out at all. Not just for Steph but players like lebron even.

I was explaining that to someone the other day. He might end up not even being a top ten player ever but he might be one of the top 2-3 to influence the game ever.

I’d expand that to include there’s never been someone who can shoot, dribble, and have that quick of a release ever. He actually isn’t all that amazing of an “athlete” but dang his skill set is like no one I’ve seen or watched before past or present.

Anyone listen to the segment with Nick wright on how he believes the Bucks will win it all? Starts about 3:40

The Greek Freak VS the Loaf of White Bread?

I’m REALLY enjoying his body language way too much. ONE assist tonight to go with 6-21

What can they get for him though? That’s the trick...but I agree 100%. Idk what the heck team would want him. 🧐

Kyrie after game three and going 8-22 “you won’t see another 8-22 game from me.” He was correct...he went 7-22 🤦🏻‍♂️
