Yeah everybody is worried about who’s gonna guard Giannis and Embiid but looks like Holiday can pretty much be that guy.
We gonna get another DPOY out of our guard play
I always knew Jrue was a great defender, but seeing him from the POV on the Celtics and every play/game….it’s bonkers how amazing he is lol.
Jrue has allowed like 8 points scored on him all season lol. Plus he was pretty much the Bucks entire defensive system apparently, so double win.
If this team produces another guard DPOY I’ll lose my mind but damn, these numbers have been ridiculous so far.
Obviously was biased the last few years and glad Smart won DPOY but it’s kind of bonkers that Holiday hasn’t won one yet. Dude is a complete menace on that end.
HES THE GREEN MONSTER
Better on offense and defense than Smart
I always liked Jrue, he was the reason i liked the Bucks and cheered for them on their title run. Also i always wanted to see him in my favorite team, now i have the chance.
Basically Smart’s peak defense minus the theatrics.
Lots of inmates at the Boston Backcourt State Penitentiary, these three acted out and suffered a transfer to the Holiday Maximum Security Wing
Jrue Holiday DPOY
The Schroeder stat is my favorite! 😍
I like that Jrue does it without all the nonsense flopping and hero plays on defense. He is always solid, which means the rest of the defense can focus on their roles in the defense. Especially now that flopping carries the risk of a tech.
My first thought when the Bucks traded him for Dame was: if we can pick him up that will be just a step back for MIL.
Jrue is awesome! I don‘t give a shit if he has some 4/12 nights. He is overall extremely consistent.
We are blessed.
The Jrueth!
This dude isn’t that big ain’t that strong, but gives opponents nightmares.
cant wait for the philly game on Wed
I posted the other day that jrue was possibly a BETTER defender on bigs than Smart, and OF COURSE I was downvoted. I assured people then that those downvotes would not age well. Was downvote for that too.
People WILL learn.
I’ve seen enough, putting $ on Jrue for DPOY
