2021-22 NBA Thread: The Bucks are Reigning Champs

[JWags85]

Opinions on him are mixed, but I really like Stan Van Gundy as a color guy.  He's great with Harlan

[MU82]

I thought Steph Curry's achievement was amazing until I realized he didn't hit 2,974 3-pointers in a game.

A career? Ho-hum.

Kyrie is the storyline that keeps on giving

Guy is a clown.

As is LeBron, hey?

Mid-season tournament, but for players in the H&S protocols

[Hards Alumni]

You're more of an Enes Kanter type of guy.

[Billy Hoyle]

What are we to make of Zion Williamson?  I hope these rumors that he can't stop eating are false.  320?  He's an incredible talent.

Many saw this coming. Not the eating but the injury issues. His body wasn't going to be able to hold up for 82 games a season with his size and style of game.

Chance you take.

I have been very critical of paying to see stars and having them sit due to "maintenance", but injuries/Covid can't be helped.

I was there.  But I was also at game 6 of the NBA Finals.  So you win some and you lose some.

my buddy's neighbor dropped $2000 for courtside tickets to see Lebron, DWade, and Bosh take on the Blazers a few years back. He only got to see Bosh play. I got to see the Thunder with Durant and Westbrook sitting out (at least it was part of my ticket package). It's tricky with "load management" and now the "health and safety protocol."

[wadesworld]

Bucks have had 3 back to backs in the last 11 days. And all of them required travel between games.

So much for trying to reduce back to backs and limit the need for load management.

Then have to fly back home for an afternoon Christmas game.

Spurs are hammering the Lakers at Staples.  I know Davis and others are out but that is not a good basketball team.  That Westbrook trade (as I predicted) has been a compete disaster.  They can't guard anyone and they gave up three starters.  Ooops.  They may not finish in the top 6. 

[The Sultan]

I think everyone but LBJ thought that Westbrook acquisition was terrible.  But yeah they aren't winning the west.

Dave bin back in MKE since 'bout 2 am, kemosabe, hey?

If all this craziness happened a few years ago, I bet Vander would have gotten some time to prove himself in the NBA.

Not even COVID, Vander would have been a prime 2-Way contract player. That would have got him plenty of run and NBA practices

[MuggsyB]

Is Lopez ever coming back for the Bucks?  They look very poor defensively.

[wadesworld]

I've never seen anybody so good at getting their hand between a dunker's hands to block the dunk attempt as Giannis is. Incredible.

[MuggsyB]

What a comeback win for the Bucks.  Giannis truly is a freak.

[MU82]

Wes with the winner!

[MuggsyB]

Wes with the winner!

He was great today.  Grayson Allen did nothing. 

[MuggsyB]

OWWW.  Hopefully Curry is alright

This contest looks like a video game early on.
