Also this will get swept under the rug but AJJ clearly tries to act as a leader even though he is a child amongst adults, exampled by him hyping up Bobby a ton after his tantrum and before his eventual ejection. That's leadership, that's getting it. He understands winning culture.
Corny as may call it, but he is gonna stick!

AJJ needs to play summer league, with the sole direction of driving and finishing.
And changing speeds.
I think this can be taught, though. Young guy, comes in with the same energy he brought in college, teach 'em to rein it in. He's not just an unrepentent spazz - just seems like he is trying to get guys/himself going and trying a bit too hard.

Watching Doc's presser. He gets it: wanted Brook to continue getting post touches in the 3rd & noticed getting away from it. And he loves Dre's game. "Want him to slow down" but sees the fire & selflessness.

Bev too. He saw what I did: "we had control of these two [road] games & blew it on a few plays. " Thought the biggest loss was blowing game 2 at home.

Doc was on the wrong side of this before. Beas got traded from that team at the deadline, so he wasn't a Nugget in the bubble.

Even the most optimistic Dre fans (which I think I am among) would not call him developed nor a sure thing moving forward. Promising! But not a guy Horst can hang his hat on for his tenure as a drafter.

I agree that he has pg skills, but the Bucks offense functions really well when he plays SG despite him not being a scorer. He's a terrific screener and cutter, and he can pass.
I can't think of another player with his athletic gifts that refuses to attack the basket like he does. It's really strange. It's too big of a hole in his game right now.
I mean, it's Ben Simmons syndrome
Except he's not afraid to shoot, regardless of the moment. I think he'll figure it out.

A healthy Giannis is like having a handful of sugar to throw on top and mask the smell of a huge pile of Shyt that has been assembled beneath him from the floor to
The tip.

Just an abhorrent take.
Grounds for banning.
Poster should take a good look at him/herself in the mirror.
Views that call into mind anyone that would refer to themselves as either "coach" or "carter."
Perhaps one should take in too account good intentions, but in this case I do not think leniency is warranted.
If anyone is inclined to say "Yo Adrian" it should immediately be followed by "I should be fired irregardless of my 30-13 record."
Go bucks.

It was obvious AJJ needed to play to everyone except Doc back then. He's literally the dumbest guy in the building. Unreal.

Don’t let us get one. If we win game 5 and Giannis can come back, we can take this series. Really proud of this team and how they’ve battled. It’s not over yet.

Maybe Spurs who won 2007 and then 2014?
Duncan, Parker, Ginobili in both teams but offcourse Leonard in 2014 team.

Why is everyone suddenly using the term front running when nobody has ever used that term before?

Because Bobby Portis used it to describe the showboating Indy did during game 2.
"I mean, just quite frankly, they're frontrunners, bro," Portis said Tuesday, per The Athletic's Eric Nehm. "Y'all can just Tweet that or whatever it is, bro."
"When the sh-t going good, they laughing, clapping, all that. When it's going bad, they not saying nothing," Portis continued. "So I think, to answer that question, guys always feel good when they're having a good game or hitting shots, everybody. I think that's just human nature and basketball. When you making shots, you feeling good. But when the tough going, you can't get nothing going, it kind of go the other way.

I'm not saying we don't have issues because we are old and unathletic but go roster to roster and remove everyone's two best players and pretend the best guy left after that is playing hurt. There's no team in the league that survives that without having "personnel" issues.
