I would hate Bobby Portis and Pat Bev if they were not Bucks. But they are Bucks so I love them.

It was just a couple months ago that the Bucks were too painful to watch. Now they are more fun to watch than I can remember (championship run excluded).

Saw this on YouTube comments on Pat Bev postgame: "Get you a cold beer, Pat! I'm calling you Pat Beverage, because you cooled off Derozan like a cold beer. " Someone else said Pat Bev needs to start his own Beer brand.

This Pat Bev trade may be our PJ move. Bring him in for four months to juice the team to a title. Figure out whether he comes back later.

Pat Bev has a lot more in the tank than PJ did. I'd be gutted if we let him get away. Hopefully Doc won't allow it.

PJ would've stuck if Lasry didn't cheap out. Think Bev stays if its a deep/title run. Unless he wants out.

This is comical to me. Vooch - "Get this loud mouth out of here, he's going to ruin our culture of mediocre uninspiring basketball"

Wut???

I constantly talked about that under Bud. I remember in the playoffs when Boston would go small and would put Hayward on Brook and Horford on Giannis, and the Bucks wouldn't even think about spreading the floor and posting up Brook on that little twerp. Not only that, they'd just plant Lopez outside the three-point line every single possession. It drove me insane.

To me, that is basic basketball. You exploit mismatches. You force the hand of the defense. You literally spam the same mismatch until the defense concedes. Bud never did that. He ignored those types of mismatches. I never understood why he was so stubborn.

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.

Put Brook on Jrue. Dare then to use Jrue as a screener which takes him out of the corner.

Vibe City out there. Vibe City.

Bev and Bobby need to spend all their minutes together out there.

Jae on DD is a big reason he was at two points at the half.

That duo definitely has Grant Williams/Marcus Smart agitator potential in certain playoff moments.

I get seriously tickled by DeRozan's Stoic Ambassador of the Old Ways act. Mr. No Bat Flip ovah heah. Just say you were embarrassed so you did something even more embarrassing.

Brook's value is under the basket. They will park Jrue outside and have him just sit there.

Double post

frickin triple post

Leave Jrue open. It’s the playoffs.

I've always loved Beverly. Portis I agree.
