Go small with Khris at the 5. That's our only chance.

Same player. Tim Thomas would be an MVP candidate if he played today.
Should I say I'm just trolling or keep it going? You guys decide.
I like it, but could you change Tim Thomas to Semi? It might become clearer then.

Nope , not even close , Tim is no way the shooter Tatum is. BB IQ not even close either. TT was a good player but not on the level of Tatum. Maybe TT could teach Tatum how to box though!

Tired of seemingly every pick and pop for them resulting in a drained three while Bobby vacates a passing lane or Lopez gets blocked by a wing.
We are losing because Horford/Porzingis are destroying Brook/Bobby.

Honestly I used to love Tim Thomas. One of my favorite players. But he just could never consistently put it together. I was always rooting for him but it was mostly disappointing. And honestly it’s kind of how i feel about Dame on the Bucks.

Dame has been awesome this quarter. Without giannis we just can’t properly match up with them however, especially if they are going to make any open shot

Porzingis nose is bleeding so probably out for the year.

His mentality is, why drive to the basket for an easy 2 or get fouled when I can force up a really cool 3pt shot from 5 feet behind the line.
I hope to hell we trade his overrated ass this off-season.
You're very smart
Dame can make some tough/dumb shots, but doesn't mean it's smart to keep taking them when it's not necessary.
One thing I'll give Dame is that he's really good at getting to the basket and either finishing or getting fouled. When you're that good at getting to the rim, maybe don't force up as many contested 3's as he does.

Dude was just a lazy basketball player. He had no drive. He was talented enough to be a multiple All Star.

I don't know how much you can have Bobby and Brook on the floor in this series. Tough part is I'm not sure we have a good enough small lineup either.

Bobby can’t be taking post up midrange fadeaways in the playoffs it’s such a low percentage shot and a waste of a possession. Please play smart and don’t take dumb shots.

Yep, and honestly other than a handful of great games from Dame, *on the bucks at least*, I kind of get the same vibe from Dame at times. I know it’s crazy… I am just saying I feel the same amount of hope and disappointment from Dame.

No reason for that shot from Bobby, just stupid.

Shooting those contested 3 is what allows him to consistently get to the rim being 6'1' 33 years old. Those crazy 3s is what keeps defenses on him at halfcourt. Those crazy shots are the whole reason he has 60% TS on superstar volume

Issue is he doesn’t get fouled like he used to. Rule change.
