thrILL! Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 Good to see Sterling Brown taking advantage of his minutes. Looks like he’s earning Bud’s trust. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beekay414 Posted December 13, 2018 Author Share Posted December 13, 2018 Giannis is obviously hurt and Middleton is in his annual "suck for a month" mode. Let's see how long we can survive this stretch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pugger Posted December 13, 2018 Share Posted December 13, 2018 The guys couldn't hit the broad side of a barn last night. It's damn difficult to win when you can't score. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bucks boast the NBA’s best net rating and Pythagorean record, which estimates a team’s “expected” record based on point differential and is more predictive of future performance than straight win-loss record—and Milwaukee hasn’t yet started picking on the Eastern cellar-dwellers. The Bucks have faced just eight sub-.500 opponents; for comparison, Toronto, Philly, and Boston are at 13 and Indiana a whopping 16. Meanwhile, no team currently with a winning record has faced as many opponents with .500 or better records than Milwaukee’s 19. Unlike some of the bubble teams discussed above, the Bucks are already a playoff guarantee. The question becomes whether coach Mike Budenholzer, in his first season in Milwaukee, can keep his team among the elite. Milwaukee’s net rating sits at plus-8.6 so far, and the team has the easiest schedule of any remaining team, per Tankathon, as well as the star power and 3-point marksmen to blow out inferior opponents. The Bucks have already collected 11 wins of 15-plus points, tops in the NBA and one more than the Warriors, and plenty more are sure to come. Could their net rating reach plus-10 by the end of the season? According to Basketball-Reference data, which extends back to the 1983-84 season, the only Eastern teams to reach a double-digit net rating are three Jordan Bulls teams, the 2007-08 Ubuntu Celtics, and the 66-win 2008-09 Cavaliers. Giannis might be coming for LeBron in more ways than expected. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Herbie_Hancock Posted December 18, 2018 Share Posted December 18, 2018 Dj Wilson is alive and well. Time to trade him while his value is high. **Phoenix raises offer from one to two bags of doritos** Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spartacus Posted December 18, 2018 Share Posted December 18, 2018 Bledsoe trying to throw this game in the last 3 minutes. How do you miss 3 free throws and then miss a layup like that.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beekay414 Posted December 18, 2018 Author Share Posted December 18, 2018 Giannis gets absolutely screwed on charge calls routinely. Its maddening. They cant stop him from getting to the rim so they flop and get rewarded for it. It's a joke. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spartacus Posted December 18, 2018 Share Posted December 18, 2018 Griffin looks like crap. Dude flopped all over the court and when he wasn't flopping his defense was atrocious and his offence wasn't much better. I'm so happy he missed that last shot.

He always will unless he develops a midrange or 3 game. The only way to stop him is to get in his way. The refs definitely need to be better though.

beekay414 Posted December 21, 2018 Author Share Posted December 21, 2018 I don't think Christian Wood will be back next year. He's unhappy with playing time and I dont blame him. He shouldn't be playing behind Thon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
