It’s like when Cousin Dom moved in with the Entourage guys. No one was comfortable with it.

Going from a Buck Rodgers reference to an Entourage reference is crazy

I know its kind of low hanging fruit to make Prunty jokes because he looks like some Regis Philbin x 90's action film villain love child, but the guy can coach. There was a point in the game where we were up at least 20 and he was screaming with every ounce of intensity he had to give lol. Love that guy, its a shame he's probably a assistant lifer but he's clearly made strides as a coach over the years.

Team really missed not having Kris out there tonight…. Missed those 4 point TOs for fast breaks the other way

Are we allowed to talk about the fact Middleton wasn’t out there competing for touches running the offense?
Mids fans are going eat you alive. Pecking should be Giannis, Dame, then Midd.

Is that not the pecking order? Khris’s usage is way lower and it’s the lowest it’s been in almost a decade. Dame is just shooting really bad this season.

Will be really interesting to see how much Doc influences personnel. People here have said that on one of his Bill Simmons pod appearances, he mentioned that Middleton can't guard anyone anymore.

My plans for Mids would be either sixth-man, spot up corner shooter (not Dame) or the guy who brings you back younger, more athletic Dejounte.

Think you have to let Dame and Giannis run the offense with the starters.
With Giannis and Dame running things Mids should get some good Open looks. We dont need him to be backing people down. I would love Murray.

One of Bobby's best games, and he did a decent job defending Zion when he was on him.

Robin with more minutes than Thanasis now in multiple games, with different head coaches. Interesting.

Brook also looked much better on Defense. Hopefully Doc will run the defense more like Prunty does with Giannis helping protect the rim.

Feel sad about the negative comments about Khris. Perhaps it is a reality; if so, it is a sad reality.

Reminder that Khris was instrumental in a win over a very good Cavs team 3 days ago, then simply just shot bad the next game while doing a good job distributing/rebounding. It all seems agenda pushing because you can't really argue with how much better the team has played with Khris on the floor all season and his excellent efficiency.

But he dribbles off his leg sometimes.

Honestly if you are anti-Khris, I'd rather you be persistent about it instead of just subtly trying to say he is washed after the bad shooting night he has every 2 weeks, it just seems like you're throwing darts in the dark when you do that. Funny enough he is having maybe his best offensive season statistically if you extrapolate to per36

Dame has shot like trash all month, but somehow that is correlated to Middleton for some people because of a 1 game sample size with interim coach. Middleton should be opening things up for Dame, maybe Dame needs to lock in like he did tonight. Khris isn't stopping Dame from being Dame, Khris is very unselfish

Khris is absolutely cooked physically. Guy can barely move

Okay? His production is great. Just say you don't like watching him play.

Khris is just coming off 2 games with b2b dunks, I wonder if he has ever done that in his career up until this season.

Before tonight, Dame was shooting 38% in games without Middleton. The Bucks, and Dame, desperately need him.
