Question as I just turned it on, has Giannis not been fouled once all night when trying to shoot?
Can't remember the last time he had almost 20 shots with no free throws.

Let’s not try and suddenly act like Jrue was some sort of bum because he's no longer wearing a Bucks uniform.

His offense cratered every postseason he had with us. The dude had a 47% TS his last two postseasons with us, with his defense visibly slipping the last year, which was capped off by him getting completely dismantled and embarrassed by Jimmy.

Nobody is acting like Jrue was a total bum, but I’m also not interested in revisionist history about what playoff Jrue was.

You'll never admit it, but you know the Bucks would be a better team right now if they had kept Jrue instead trading for Dame.

Celtics also wouldn't be as good as they are right now if we didn't trade Jrue...lol.

Nah, you’re not dragging me into that nonsense. Dame even in a really down year has outperformed Jrue this season whether you look at raw numbers, efficiency numbers, impact numbers, and his gravity as a shooter has helped Giannis have his most efficient season in years.

Disagree. And I still like Jrue. But Dame beating the meat all summer means the Bucks are paying for him essentially slow-playing himself into shape. I honestly think the Bucks would be roughly the same. Better defensively but would struggle greatly against good teams that will have 2-3 guys guarding Gianni while everyone else crumbles.

Khris please come back early soon; I am missing your scoring and your passes to Giannis.

MarJon is not an NBA player
I'm against picketing but I don't know how to show it.

We preferred him over Jovic. I could not believe it then. Miami snapped him up right next.

23-11-8 in just over three quarters says otherwise. He's had some bad turnovers but the others have been atrocious.


Eye test says otherwise. He looked like Thon doing a Giannis impression.

What's amusing is that Jimmy being on the court gives Giannis someone to guard that he can sort of cheat off of. Minus Jimmy it's Bam plus a bevy of shooters. And a brutal matchup for Brook.

When I said Marjon's ceiling is Tony Snell, I may have been disrespecting Tony Snell.

First half he was really good. Second half he ran out of gas and probably got frustrated with the lack of whistle.

Other than the 2021 first round series it's like Spo is 30-3 against Milwaukee.

I remember thinking that all we needed him to be was Tony Snell. So I'm right there with you.

This board would have drafted better than the Bucks since the Giannis pick. Just total disaster every time. Do we have a scouting department?
