I guess after 21 years he gets some slack.
But I'll make sure he's not doing PG threads on the west coast trip.
Had a deadline work project that kept me up all Thursday night. Then at 6pm last night I looked at the GT and saw the 9pm start and said ****!
Big bowl of fiber and an early night for you, old fella.

So, turns out playing B2B's won't result in the Hindenburg disaster. Guys most of the year have been looking perfectly fine on the SEGABABA.

He did the impossible. Just ask the Celtics.

With the hit he received on the head, AJ Green is slowly moving to replace PatC on the rotation next year

Sounds like we need age limits for our mods here.

Just admit you had a double date with two pleasant ladies you met on SilverSingles. It's OK.

this is easily the best Giannis has ever looked. his jumper looks good, his footwork looks good, he's still aggressive but everything feels in control. maybe the best thing is he is, more and more, throwing kick out passes without taking the time to wind up or turn around to throw them. a giannis kick out, many times, would take so long that the defense had time to react and recover. now it's coming out instantly and it's wide open.

There are still almost four months left in the season. I hope we find ways to rest our players down the stretch so we can go into the playoffs as fresh as possible.

all the talk about chemistry and two man game isn't even really relevant. if Dame just hits 50% of his shots, like any borderline super star should do, we are going to blow out most teams every night.
so... Dame, you thought things would be "like Boston," we're waiting on you, bud.

The D has really has ramped it up. Even Bobby now has been very physical. I will try and remember that the season doesn't really matter till after the all star game.

Isn't Giannis better on b2bs or something like that? Could swear someone posted the stats backing it up in the past.

Everyone has their family but Bev & Dame. Maybe Dame should hang out with Pat & Rone & Mantis.

I remember Paul George talking about that recently (maybe 1-2 years ago) on a podcast. About how players actually felt more in rhythm on B2Bs and it helped with conditioning for the beating you take in the playoffs.

Until any of the 3 has a good playoff year the whole debate is irrelevant. They've all choked or got benched so far

Doc in post game interview, first thing he said was about how he's on the guys to stick with what works. Huge refreshment after years of not taking advantage of matchups.

Doc hugging Bobby after he instigated DD to get DD to commit a flagrant foul and a tech was my favorite moment of game. Second favorite was Bev hugging AJG after he took that hit.
Vibe City out there. Vibe City.

Half of Giannis’s 40pt or better games have come on back to backs this season. He’s had 8 all year, but 4 of them have come in his 11 back to backs. Pretty absurd.

So where is our defense ranked now after these last 5 games under Doc?

After watching the Celtics last night, my concerns are the following:
1) The Bucks need another shooter on the court during the playoffs, even if it's just ten minutes a game. That has to be be AJ Green.
2) With Jrue Holiday shooting 65% on corner threes this season, it makes the Celtics really hard to guard. All their players sit outside and force the defenders to go out and guard the perimeter.
3) I don't now what Rivers will do with Lopez against the Celtics. Who does he guard? He can't just stay in the paint. He can't switch. Interesting chess match.
