Game 74: Bucks at Hawks - 3/30/24 - 6:30 - NBATV/BSWI - Dame OUT

[tsamo]

Why all the middies by Giannis today?
I wonder if sometimes some players hit everything in practise and that's why they keep taking bad or inefficient shots all game long.

[mediocrityrules]

Undecided at this point. Would Markkanen be a good fit next year as BroLo's replacement?

doesnt matter, we dont have the assets to get him

Give 'em Dame. Throw in some steak knives.

Giannis is the best Brook replacement

True. He needs to step into the Anthony Davis phase of his career defensively but that will take some out of his offensive game.

In truth it might be time for Khris to move down too, to the 4

[blazza18]

I maintain Brook gets the Bucks worst whistle.

Something something Giannis top-of-the-key ISO ball is trash offense. Something something elbow touches.

Because it stopped working in the playoffs so who cares... yeah get away with trash offense in some regular season games when half the stars sit anyways and the other half of the teams are tanking. When the genius teams and coaches get several days/ games in a series to scout you then it doesn't work and they make you draw charges or get hurt

Dude literally averaged 30 on 60% TS throughout the playoff championship run, and somehow you guys are convinced it was mostly, what? Lobs and post touches?

Only my gf and realgm dudes bring up events from 3 years to win an argument

Sometimes, players are playing the game within the game. You take a shot to keep a defender off balance

[tsamo]

Giannis has been a menace on defence today.
Although for some reason his stats are weird.
He had 3 steals at some point even if he had at least one big block I remember and then right afterwards had another block that was never counted and now they took away one steal but did not add a block...
What the hell are they doing at stat-keeping, lol?

edit:Ok, waht the **** kind of call was that on Giannis?
Second bull call for Bogi tonight, at least.

[blazza18]

**** what a terrible foul call. Ref bought the head getting thrown back meant there must have been a foul.

Pretty good half besides the Giannis jumpers which continue to be short and broken.

Are we not that now?

Can’t allow physical play and then pick n choose when to call touch fouls.

Considering what Giannis cops on every drive to the basket, including twice already this game, he has every right to feel aggrieved at that ridiculous call.

[Chessboxer]

Bucks caught a break so far. Atlanta came out sloppy and uninspired. Usually teams treat the Bucks like its an NBA Finals game and it can be an uphill battle no matter how mediocre the team is. Bucks just need to keep the pressure on.

we have been since we won a title.

I’m glad the Bucks dodged the Murray trade.

Doc's X and O stuff is nice.. my disappointment is staying with role players too long in a game when they don't have it that say... and not doing enough to get AJJ and Gallo ready yet.. certain matchups where KM, Beas, BP or BL are getting played off the floor we could have had an option to bring in.. icing them out of the lineups even during injuries when minutes were available is a misfire to me and limits our options... now an 0-3 Beas turns into a 1-7 and onward for the others.. and if a guy is getting burnt repeatedly, keep it to 20 min instead of letting him get roasted for 33 and now lose a 20 point lead.. this is my only Doc gripe hhhh

Good prediction! Beas is 1 - 7 right now... wtf

[-Jragon-]

Bev with a half a wrist is still our best role player lol

[-Jragon-]

Get Beas out

[RiotPunch]

Green over Beas. Come on, Doc.

[mediocrityrules]

Beas is a dumpster fire tonight. Dairy Bird the ready replacement. Get him in Doc.
