Game 46: Pelicans at Bucks - 1/27/24 - 7:00 - BSWI - Khris Out, Giannis Probable, Zion Questionable

Post #1 » by **MickeyDavis** » Sat Jan 27, 2024 5:26 am

Both teams on a B2B. No idea who may sit. Zion sat Friday night with a foot injury. Giannis has back and shoulder injuries, walked up the court a few times Friday night. Very possible he sits to get ready for the road trip. Mids could sit. Young guys should get some PT.

This will be Prunty's final game as HC, Doc and the new assistants will be on the bench Monday in Denver.

Go Bucks.

Yay Bucks.

Sucks tuning in and not knowing which Bucks team will turn up to play.

Wouldn't be shocked if they sat Freak for this one.

Doc is progressing.

Hoping for the taking of Pelicans 123. To 104. After which we can say to somebody, maybe even Malik Beasley...

We probably only play the starters for the first half and see if the game is competitive. If not, just pull the plug and give the guys some rest. They looked gassed last night already.

They are gassed because they are old and Prunty for whatever reason won’t play the young guys for even one minute. It’ll be hilarious when he runs an eight man all old guys rotation on a SEGABABA

Zion played in the 3 games leading up to last night. So unless he got injured in that last one, i'm going to assume they kept him out last night so he's ready to go for tonight.

If Zion plays, Giannis will play.

Id sit all starters and treat this like a preseason game....sorry for those who bought tickets but that's what I think is best.

would be shocked if we did something like that, but i wouldn't be surprised if we pull a Boston if things are bad at half time.

that's what it's called, now, btw. Pulling a Boston. tell your friends.

Prunty is not getting this head coaching job and currently has an almost 60% win percentage as an interim head coach. If I'm him, I'm not playing a single young dude either. I'm auditioning for a job.

I'm sure its a "collaborative" effort with Prunty, the vets made the call to s*** can Griff so Prunty probably doesn't have the standing to decide the rotation when everybody knows he's a placeholder.

Some younger fresher legs last night may have actually helped last night, we looked slow and uninspired

I'm a little under the weather, so until game time you can list BigO as doubtful.
