He goes 3313 and 7 tonight 11-5 from the field uh 11-5 from the three throw line he does what you ask him do he does have five turnovers but I think a couple those were some charges but Giannis again a model of consistency if only if
Only we could get another guy that’s a superstar to do the exact same thing but instead you hot hot take City uh instead we get we get Dame we get Dame dollar going 12 points six assists uh he’s five of 18 from the line after going what is
He 10 of 11 last night puts up 30 points 11 shots tonight he puts up 12 points on 18 shots again if you’re not starting to get concerned that’s on you um he was one of eight from three we could talk about you know yeah we think he’s gonna
Pull it together at the end of the year and it but that’s again that is at this point that is a hope we are hoping that’s going to happen uh because he has not shown that he can consistently be that guy for the Milwaukee Bucks he just
Has not done it he’s done it lot at and I’m not going to say he’s done a lot for gravity and I’m talking about putting points up on the board uh on a consistent basis and and doing it efficiently he has not done it I well
I’ll go through some stats some more in in a second Malik Beasley 16 points tonight six of eight four six from three Beasley did his job Bobby Porter is 27-7 tonight uh Jay Crowder had a rough night he played 40 minutes uh six points for Jay Crowder um again the Bucks are
Missing Brook Lopez still uh with the birth of his child so congratulations to him and then Chris Milton of course on back toback did not play tonight AJ Green came in the came in the game like a flamethrower um 10 points he was three three for six I think all of his threes
Probably came in the first half um but 10 points five boards he gave a good 20 22 minutes there um the Bucks I believe were I think when he was in there were like plus 17 uh and then he finishes the game plus three so I let you know how
The rest of his night went Pat conon just just I mean get this man out of Milwaukee that’s all I can say I I want him out of Milwaukee quick fast and in a hurry I’m tired of seeing him tired of looking at him uh he scores one point in
18 minutes so he had one point than all of us up here uh and all and everybody listening and watching campaign with three points and then you look to the other side it’s Utah Jazz who I mean the Bucks had bottled him up pretty decent for three quarters in that fourth just
Went insane 21 from marketing 15 and 10 uh from John Collins cins seon gives you 19 points um Chris Chris Dunn so a lot of people talk about Chris Dunn maybe being a guy that the Bucs could use uh he I’m okay he look trash to me uh
Walker Kessler had a good night 13-8 keante George 19- 10 so he played really well well Jordan Clarkson didn’t score until the third quarter um but he went 12 and five and then Kelly oen 8 seven- six just all around well rounded game for him he a little dirty but that’s
Neither here nor there um what did I see tonight JT again to me to me it was it was the play of Damen Lillard like that’s where the Bucks that’s where this loss took place so a couple things you know your defense it’s and again again I
I want to say you’re on a backto back you’re short-handed but you did go up 19 and you’re think all you got to do is just just close this thing out um just close it out and and you’ll be okay and you’re thinking maybe that dunk at the
End of the third was going to get Dame you know going and get him in gear and it just did not and listen with two guys out on a backto back some people use that as excuses as to why you you know why it’s a tough game to win why you may
Lose the basketball game and and I get some of that but the Milwaukee Bucks were in were in a position to finish and close at the basketball game and they just didn’t and could not do it and Damen little was a big part of that you cannot
Sustain all those circumstance on a back to back and having guys out at elevation you can’t sustain it if your Superstars don’t play like Superstars and again they they did it for 36 minutes and they couldn’t do it for 48 and so you know I’m not blaming the loss entirely on
Damen Lillard of course the Bucks defense could have been much better you were up 12 but that you could only give up if you only scored 13 you could have only given up to to win the game You’ only been able to give up 24 points and that probably wasn’t realistic anyway
So the Bucks offense went into a hole in the third in the fourth quarter and that goes pretty much everybody uh in throughout the entire game I think Giannis had maybe only scored a couple points in the fourth it was just bad it was bad but again everything starts and
Stops I saw people talking about you got to trade this guy trade this starts and stops with zero like you’re you’re stars are the ones that get held accountable and I don’t want to blame everything on Damen Lillard but it seems I mean every time
You look at the losses it goes you start looking down the stat line you just watch the game and go well Dame probably had a bad night when they lose uh he had three turnovers as well so again one of 23 108 bucks losing on the road in Utah
That’s what I saw JT what’ you see man it looked a little shaky in the first half a little while but I want to go ahead and get my man Derry bird gotta give got Gotta Give My Man der bird let’s start with the good right I love
Seeing Derry bird pull that thing up from damn near the logo and uh and hit it uh Derry bird said listen I’m staying in Milwaukee my address my address gonna be 53202 or somewhere around 53202 one of the one of them zip codes is gonna be
There you know through at least the rest of the season so I love that I love you know the bucks came out the first half I thought they were fine I was really impressed with the third quarter uh I want to say with the Bucks six for 10
For three in the third quarter something like that right right it was a very explosive quarter and then that fourth quarter hit that fourth quarter is by far the worst quarter of basketball this Bucks team has played all year they scored 13 points to close this thing 13 points and not only gave
Up a lead but I mean I’m pretty sure the lead they gave up was more than the points they actually scored in the quarter which man that is bad that is always just just bad territory to be in um you know look shout out to Bobby right because Bobby’s been all over the
Place but tonight he showed up tonight tonight he showed up right 27 and 27 and 7 1120 for field four for seven from three listen right when you when you got starters and you got guys out you got two of your better Shooters on this team
Out somebody’s got to step in step in and kind of get the Gap there and you know what I’mma give Bobby that credit because he deserves it man so yeah one time for Bobby another guy Malik Beasley he he been stinking it up recently from a shooting perspective it just hadn’t
Been where we had seen it earlier this year Malik Bey tonight though six for eight four for six and three right 16 163 and two I’ll take it right because again you’re stepping up right you’re stepping up when guys are out um side note you guys know right now the Bucks
Got three guys shooting about 40% from three y’ know who they are I’m assuming Malik Beasley uh AJ Green and above 40% bro I don’t think Brooke has has he shot 40 40% campaign campaign is your third funny is are all separated by increments of two right campaign shooting like right in between 40 to 41% Der Bird shooting at 42% and then uh uh Malik Beasley shooting you know almost
45% as well um you know that’s that’s that’s going into this game but um yeah this is just rough man this is rough blowing leads the way it went down the fact that this team just kind of I I don’t even know how much it was they
Just gave up versus them legs was shot I don’t know what it was but I mean they just ran out of gas right like you said you got to run through the tape not to the tape they didn’t run to the tape they just stopped right it’s like them
Old was it like Powerade commercials the don’t Bonk or whatever it was and they just and or Daman somebody got a Gatorade commercial now where people are just like stopping short was it D does Dame had a commercial with the Gatorade commercial where the people were like
Stopping short of they go because they not hydrated or whatever either way that’s pretty much what happened to the Bucks man and I’m I’m a I’m a reserve comment on Dame because I know he’s got a different segment but this was ugly and I’m I’m going to chalk it up the
People being tired uh the back Tob backs you know taking their Court the Bucks have a have a ton of back-to-backs in the last few weeks but this is rough you can’t let this happen consistently yeah this sucks I mean they played kind of the opposite of what
They’ve been doing all season is you know not starting off strong but then you know killing in the fourth quarter and being that clutch team that we always look to and they were just not that tonight uh some guys stepped up for Utah when when things things got tough I
Mean Jordan Clarkson he was he was phenomenal I thought obviously didn’t score the ball that much but him and Walker Kessler in that Twan we just didn’t have an answer and I think part of that obviously is not having the presence of Brooke in the lineup but man
Guys were just lazy on Closeouts guys were overh helping when Jordan Clarkson would would drive by their Defender so that’s you saw some defensive lapses in this fourth quarter that really led to to some open looks from Utah and I thought man we just missed wide open
Shots in that fourth quarter like I know Malik Beasley shot four six but he had two that were just wide naked open and he just missed it Jay Crowder same thing uh you know so Bobby same thing it’s just just an unfortunate fourth quarter and you know credit to Utah for for
Battling back and then once they had the momentum they took it and won the game yeah no and yeah you talk they you know they they they kept battling they they stay it was it was always one of those games that you know it seemed like the Utah just stayed around you know
Know 9 10 11 points down and then the Bucks would would get a surge and get to 14 15 16 and Utah would get it back to 11 some timely buckets uh from a number of key contributors from the Utah Jazz and then um and then the Bucks just
Couldn’t they they that yeah that fourth quarter they they just got blissed and ran and I thought the only criticism of doc I really have because he’s short-handed tonight so he had rough on the rotation I thought that maybe um maybe that River should have used one
The timeout in the fourth quarter at some point because I thought he did a really good job going through the game of using it and trying to break the momentum but he he never really did in the fourth the book I know the books had three timeouts maybe he wanted to save
It his usually ler timeout for a later into the basketball game but you know when you’re getting blitzed and and just beat down like that you got to stop the bleeding or try I don’t know if and I don’t know if it would have worked at all but um that was something he
Probably should have thought about and then again you talk about the tired legs well Andre Jackson Jr didn’t play the other night and so why why my question why didn’t you maybe think to use him especially in a game where you give up 40 points in the third in the fourth
Quarter why don’t you put him out there Chris Livingston was there why don’t you put him out there maybe those guys can Muck things up um and do something but again you know I’m not I’m not saying that’s why the bucks um uh lost the basketball game because Andre Jackson Jr
And Chris Lon didn’t play but just some things that maybe you could have tried um to slow things down and so uh but the Bucs didn’t do it they lose 123 108 um the comments were comments are going crazy on Twitter uh as well as the
YouTube so let’s talk about a few of them here King of Kings says Dame time um Dame time a the clock sent him to the heat um and and then uh John Hassel says everyone balling but Dame uh John H also say trade Dame we need a point guard
Swap AJ Green for Beasley so a lot of a lot of people are hating on Dame tonight the 11 King says I’m not overreacting Dame is past his prime green rangers says that that was awful there’s no other way to put it so again a lot of
People you know um you know a lot of that is going towards Daman Lillard uh and he’s just gonna continue to take the heat um if he’s gonna play like this I do want to bring attention to a couple things that happen in the game you know
Side not and this is also not why the Bucks lost the basketball game I thought the officiating was was poor um and and and I know that because it wasn’t just the at the in the in the fourth when I started talking I talked about the when
The Bucks were up I was complaining about officiating all game long so it what and I don’t necessarily think it was like one-sided against the BCS I thought they were poor just in general and I do think at the end of the game the Bucks did not benefit from the same
Cause Utah did I think that the officials for whatever reason they called a lot of touch fouls and then it got to the point where what they had to overcorrect because they couldn’t call fouls every time so you had to kind of change things up and
And it it it just seemed like like we didn’t know what was a foul versus what wasn’t going to be a foul and so again not the reason the Bucks lost um but I I was not happy with the way this game was officiated all tonight I can’t even get there I’m gonna
Be honest I can’t even get there because like you said it wasn’t it wasn’t quite I think you you you tweet this you like it’s not quite five vers eight but you know yes I thought I think there were some some some terrible calls here but I
Can’t blame the rest for this one we beat ourselves we we we we be ourselves we stunk the the lackless some of the adjustments this is on this is on everyone’s shoulders not 34 everybody that’s not 34 34 Derry bird did his part right blee Beasley did his part Bobby
Did his it’s on everybody else right and I and I’m quite honestly I gotta look at Doc a little bit in this one too right because you saw some good and bad you saw doc right when uh it was uh in in that first half when doc called that
Timeout stuff was getting a little hectic and it was like all right hold on right close to the endend of that second quarter yeah great right but then the adjustments in the the fourth quarter listen they ran it on your head they’re they’re killing they they got y’all
Spinning right now nobody can anything like you said why don’t you put why Andre Jackson not getting a look why y i I was gonna say Mar but he can stay there he can stay on the bench right why some of these other guys not getting
What’s what’s going on man but yeah no I can’t I can’t blame the ref tonight for what went down I I gotta say that if there’s a percentage of blames the ref get is it’s less than 10 to me I did think that uh carrye call on Giannis was
A little iffy I think that that kind of sucked the momentum out of the bucks after they were they kind of traded threes right there and they were looking to answer and you know keep it at least respectable under seven points and then he calls a carry and they come down and
Score so it’s like that kind of takes you out of the game late in the fourth but other than that yeah I mean some blame has to go everywhere DOC for for not trying to at least make an adjustment with the fresh legs of Andre Jackson Jr who by the way could probably
Guard keante George I don’t know why we let him get into or get into a rhythm uh late in the game but he was cooking and you know they they just took advantage of of a bad defense and a bad showing and I guess you say tired showing yeah
And again so if there’s something that I that I could try to chalk it up to is tired legs and showing late in the basketball game but you know again you had the game in hand uh you have to play a little bit better uh than that green
Rangers says why didn’t Yannis get free throws on the alleyoop I agree I again that was just one of the things that that I that I saw and I was like I didn’t understand how that he how he didn’t get free throws there I didn’t understand um again you saw when
So anytime Yan does anything it’s a charge but then so so Colin ston hits Giannis in the face and then stares oh stares him down stands over him and and if so here’s the crazy things if Malik Beasley doesn’t run over and and and knock him down after try staring down at
Two-time MVP of the NBA a Finals NBA an NBA champion Giannis has been called for technical fouls for dunking and and and on dunks this dude just not hit him in the face and did a layup and is looking at people down on the ground down they were down
Like 13 at that point and if Malik but Beasley doesn’t do what he does there would been that would have been a no call so they had they end up and that’s what I meant about the officiating all night long they had to make a call because Malik Beasley reacted and then
If you remember the start of second half and again I’m with you John I’m not I don’t think I think it was less than 10% as well but start the second half goes and do you remember this when uh um Colin ston as Jan is going up for a
Layup or dunk no no KY ston was going up for a dunk over Giannis missed the dunk and just pulls him down is that is that is that an a basketball Act is that a play within within the rules of the game like how and and so he pulls him down
And and again love yianis absolutely but like I wish he would react like certain players react because all he he needed to do was react there and they would have had to kick maybe they would have called a flagrant so they wouldn’t have called kicked him out of the game it
Wouldn’t have been his second technical but Giannis doesn’t react and they just let it’s just a normal it’s a common foul and it’s like do like somebody’s got jannis is an 11year vet or 10 year vet or whatever like somebody’s got to tell him’s he’s got to start reacting
He’s got to start reacting he’s got to start getting up like he wants to fight even if you don’t want to fight because that’s how you get caus inous leag otherwise they’re just gonna let they gonna let it go and so and they would and they AB to me there’s no reason how
That was not a flagrant foul when you dunk the ball and and you’re falling and you gra and you pull down another two time so I thought K SE was just some Bush League Antics from him all that long but again the official let him do
It so why not if you can get away with why why not keep doing it yeah and and so know I’m glad we slowed him down I think Colin seon had like 15 in the first half he finished the game with 19 um but yeah I I I
Wholeheartedly agree with you I thought he was doing some Bush League stuff I I I would have liked it if guys would have gotten his face kind of you know somebody would have played enforcer maybe Crowder maybe somebody else kind of did that let have noticed that this
Doesn’t Rock but um you know I I do think that you’re right but here’s the question I do have if the league protects his Superstars why don’t nobody protect Giannis like that like why don’t nobody like I don’t understand this right like I think we’ve established Giannis as a superstar there’s no
Question about that that’s indisputable right so like why you not I don’t understand why he’s not getting the protect I don’t know maybe maybe maybe doc needs to call Adam Silver I don’t know maybe somebody need to talk about this in the offseason but this is a
Little ridiculous some of the stuff that Yiannis goes through with no call yeah I mean Colin seon has been doing this for a couple games in a row now I don’t know what’s gotten into him all of a sudden he’s just thinking he’s he’s hot [Â __Â ] for
Whatever reason but uh you know he didn’t even get to close out the game tonight so I mean that just shows hopefully the Bucs didn’t let that get to him um but they did get some momentum off of that I can’t lie you know he was
Doing all he Wasing doing all the extra stuff tying his shorts up getting in Malik Beasley’s face and then um you know I think they cut cut the deficit to about what was it 11 and a half or or 12 or something like that so yeah it did
Did have some momentum therey low not the one to play with y’all know that right like be Beasley not the one to play with I don’t know I didn’t know that I’m send I’m send y an article on Beasley like to play that man that man served
Some time yeah yes he I I got I got that thing on me and I’ll let it off if I need to right that’s what I’m saying be the one to play with all right we’ll talk about that later yeah well like you said you gota let them hands fly in the
AR you ain’t got no thing on you so you got you gota let them let let them let them hands fly see see see what that working with uh because K sex definitely could have got you know k i don’t the reason I like I I don’t like that rat
Tail he got either man man get get out I I I just can’t stand looking at col sex man I don’t like him I haven’t liked him since he was in Cleveland um and then uh King of Kings says bucks need a guy like ston well he remember he was rumored to
The bucks for for a while um you’re right he actually probably would be good on the books I just don’t like looking at him um kyin Ray says I don’t want to hear a damn word about being a back toback and tired after he crushed Boston
For not giving any effort on a back toback so kyin rayen yes but no the difference was and again there’s nothing wrong with Loser on a back Tob back there’s nothing wrong the Bucks the difference is the Bucks did give an effort the difference is the Bucks doc
Didn’t say at the beginning of third quarter ah or what what was it with B like that get in the third quarter take everybody out we’re done we’re on a back to back and and getting blown out by 40 like that that’s the difference no you
Can you can be com the the we we crushed Boston because Boston and the Boston faithful pretended like you were not able you could not be competitive on a back toback that’s a little bit of the difference um as well here um Q says we are missing two starters and it’s back
To back and you’re surprised we lost gas in the fourth are we watching the same sport no and Q I I don’t I don’t disagree with you either you did lose but losing gas is is losing gas is one thing getting boat race 40 to 13 is
Another like if it have been a close Nip Tuck game all game long and you lose a close because you ran out of gas before sure sure I give you that but no no no the Bucks didn’t lose gas they they didn’t run out of gas well I guess that
Is the same thing as run out of gas they but usually when you run out of gas you kind of sputter it no the Bucks it was almost like they didn’t know the E Line was there they they even they weren’t even looking at where they was at and
All of a sudden they was just on E but again I just think that’s that’s a very convenient excuse to make that you know well back to back we had a g no you had to leave you had to leave you you didn’t get beat down all game long you had to
Leave agree with that whole man oh I I can’t yeah now the back to back because the thing is I think you would have seen that show a little bit earlier if they were just completely gassp and fatigue they were right in position position to win this
Game they were 100% in position to win this game right and like yeah they I think they did they they they did run out of gas towards the end but there was a lot of factors in there that had a lot more to do with fatigue than that so no
I can’t and I can’t I can’t and on top of that and on top of that JT so some of the guys so you want to say people ran out of gas that’s fine so Dame just didn’t start with nothing in the tank Dame started on E from the begin
Everybody else everybody else went after the game last night and refueled got fueled up what Dame just said nah we good we going to run on E all night and so he was on E from the beginning of the game and again I think people act as if
We’re being hard on Damen Lillard and we’re me evaluating what I saw like I can’t what do you want me to say oh he played great what do you want me well D was I can’t I I can’t I can’t do that he was not good tonight there’s no metric
That he was good he wasn’t good let me let me clarify something right like because I just want to I just want to be 100% clear to to to to listeners and everybody else people think we’re being hard on Dame right and we 100% are being
Hard on Dame and here’s why from January 17th what’s Dame go 7 for 20 here we go January 22nd What’s d go four for 15 January 26 versus Cleveland what’s Dame go 7 for 24 January 29th vers Denver what’s Dame go 5 for 13 January 31st Dame goes 9ine for 23 February 4th
Tonight Dame goes 5 for 18 listen the only reason we being hard on Dame is because we were told he was a superstar I was told that you know D was an eight time Allstar seven time first team all NBA one of the top 75 players that we
Had seen Damen Lillard was absolutely this tremendous fabulous magnificent player from Portland one of the best we’ve ever seen basketball and I’m not disputing that but if he is where’s that Dam at where’s that at right oh I get it he is an All-Star starter he’s still
Scoring 20 I understand that right and I’m not disputing that with y’all I’m agreeing with y’all but show me the Hall of Famer right show me the guy who’s supposed to be one of the best point guards this league is ever show me one of the top 75 players all time and if
You can show me that guy show him to me consistently cuz he’s not showing up I don’t know right unless somebody wants to pull some sort of strange Advanced metric and somebody wants to throw something out there like oh see you basically if unless you want to show me
Data points to tell me that that that that that what we see is not real and something else is different listen I just where’s Dane thank you where’s he at where’s bro is that a bank envelope is that a bill envelope is that whatc got this light bill payment
In there might might be bill here we trying to figure out where is he where’s he at where is he that’s my whole thing where’s he at cuz right now right now I’m just gonna tell you man and I hate and I and I I hate that we’re
Here this year Dam’s not a superstar he’s not this we called him Batman and Superman and this year he Clark Kent working at uh what’s that joint the Metropolis what’s the newspaper Clark K used to work at journalist writing a little whatever yeah yeah that’s who he
At yeah no Superman that that suit ain’t even on him right he can’t even run in the phone booth that’s what I’m saying like that’s not what we’re seeing at this point with d so yeah no we can we can we can just keep it a buck hell yeah
We being hard because we feel like we getting fleeced right now yeah and I understand that like we care about the playoffs we care about this we care about that but the people who are saying that y’all relying a whole lot more on how he looked in Portland and hope
Versus reality of where he’s at right now like I just I just don’t understand how somebody could legitimately say yeah they’re 100% confident in Dane based off of what they seen at this point this year with the Bucks well and I I feel like part of this big collapse was his
Fault like when you talk about all the hype that that the fourth quarter is supposed to be when he takes over and it’s Dame time and this and that and then he just folds down the stretch and then it’s just like all right so that’s another thing that people hiked up that
We’re not getting so it’s all this great stuff about Dame all unicorns and rainbows then he gets here and this is a game where where you’re up double digits uh going into the fourth and you get absolutely destroyed in the fourth quarter and you had Miss shots you had
Turnovers from Dame it was just all bad um Q says and so Q’s been Dame apologizing all through the chat here he says uh um q q says Dame had a spraining ankle chill guys Dame played because the game hurt because Chris and Brook R out I’m thankful he played so here’s the
Thing q and I’m not you know but here here’s the thing do we realize how again the ex H train that Damen Lillard and I don’t think Dame has made this but but it seem like Damen Lillard the fan base the Dame stands remember beginning of the year
Beginning of the year Well Yiannis is a ball hog Yan well they got me standing in the corner well uh it’s the coach it’s the offense I gotta have the ball at all times Chris Milton’s hogging the ball why don’t I have the ball Brook Lopez shooting too many shots Bobby por
Is shooting too many shots the coach is up we know fine Dave we get rid of the coach for you oh well we got a new coach that’s still same thing same thing’s happening well you know what but you know what I’m actually I am let me let
Me put it out there I’m going through a divorce this is hard for me going through a divorce with kid I can’t can’t do it now tonight is a spray then then you ball out put up 30 now it’s a spray do I mean how I mean let just ask how
Many excuses have we heard for why Damen Lard has not performed through 50 games almost every night there I just went there’s like six that’s like seven excuses and again I say it we like you said JT and Chris we are hard on Damen lard why because this is what we were
Promised we were promised a superstar and I hold Superstars to a higher standard you notice AJ Green played bad like I’m not about to cry about AJ Green I don’t I don’t expect AJ Green he gave me what probably like 10 or so on the
First half I don’t expect him to give me 20 I’m thankful for the 10 Bobby poris had a big first half and it was kind of sputtered down in I’m not mad at Bobby because I know Bobby Porter I can’t sit there and be mad at at that I know what
He is uh uh uh campaign J crowd I’m not expecting certain so when I expect things out of you and you don’t deliver those are the people I’m upset at so when I look and I go okay what do I I expect Hall of Fame performances from
Two guys on on a nightly basis Giannis and DNE and tonight I look at Giannis and what did he give me he gave me he gave me 33 13 and seven I’ll take that that’s what I that’s why I don’t have anything any Hest spot a little bit down
The stretch but I can handle that you give me a stat line like that I don’t say anything about you we lose we’ll figure out a way to talk about what happened um but tonight he was not good enough that was the problem you guys
Give me some uh what else you got then I I’ll read some uh some Twitter thoughts here uh because again Twitter was very hard Twitter was harsher than I being right now than we’ve been tonight on Damen Lillard and I think some some of the quotes and comments are gonna
Surprise you here maybe well I think I I think that the thing is is that I just think generally as we as Bucks fans we think hey jiannis and D playing oh we good right we knew Brooke was out we knew Chris was out but we figured hey we
Going to be all right right and for most of this game it looked like yeah we just going to be just fine right I I had no idea that we was going to lose to a team that’s 25 and 26 by 15 right and melting down completely a team that’s going to
Come back down from double digits in the fourth quarter to beat us by double digits yo like I I just I would have never guessed that uh that that would have been the case if our two guys was playing and I get it back Tob backs maybe they’re a
Little tired Giannis had you know damn near 50 points last night so I I understand that but he was able to show up and still give a very strong performance for this team it’s not good enough for Dane Lillard just to show up for work and right now when you show up
Shooting five for 18 right you talking about yeah my head ain’t right I ain’t never been away from my kids and my family and everything like yeah okay come on man you’re professional you’re Prof you’re professional and you’re not a rookie I could understand if he was a
Secondy year player and you had been in the league a couple years and everything fell apart but like you said like you said to the quote I’m not 21 we know you’re not 21 we expect a different level of maturity like you’ve been through some things so I don’t know man
I’m I’m a Daman lard fan I want to see him play well I hope we don’t think about trading him I hope we give this thing a shot but Dame’s got to show up for Dame and that’s the problem here right Dame has to show up for Dame Dame
Is not consistently showing up not in the way that we’re accustomed to not in the way he knows he can play I mean if you told me this guy was a seven time all NBA based on play like yeah right get out of here right I think and I
Think yeah seven times he’s First Team all NBA once um I think he’s been like second team four times and you know third team twice or something like that and let me just ask y’all this quick question right here is Jason Tatum a superstar oh yeah yeah absolutely okay
So Jason T Jason Tatum Superstar I just wanted to ask that question because we had that debate last year but wead and say Jason tat Superstar I’m just tell you like that cuz that that resume is coming from D I’m just saying like hang no John hold on you you’re you’re
Double you hearing that too Chris yeah this like a little e so I think we have Echo no yeah I can just jump in real quick I I also want to just address the address a comment I saw uh the Q had said uh something about how oh we got to
Chill because it’s a regular season and we had injuries well where was that empathy for for Adrien Griffin when he’s barely beating the Pistons right um and that it’s just a regular season game and guys are out so I I can’t get with that argument that’s just stupid we expect
More from this team John horse expects more from this team as we see he’s quick to to take action uh so yeah and then uh I saw another thing too I’m I’m allow you to read that but uh and then the last thing I want to say yeah uh people
Last night were talking about how Brooke the defense is better with Brooke that ain’t it that’s cap that’s cap because Walker Kessler was a barbecue chicken tonight uh in the two-man game with Clarkson and we saw that down the stretch they went to it a lot Kenny
Kelly oen ALS also torched the Jay Crowder matchup so yeah you need a big presence like Brooke all the time um Jameson Tero 12 says uh Steph’s wife asked for a poly relationship and still won to chip that year 2022 Steph ain’t make no excuses which by the way y’all know
Steph Curry is Lindsay Lohan’s kid’s Godfather like how know they’re his kids God Parents yeah Steph Curry Isa Curry and Lindsay Lohan which is a hell of a combination but yo J Jameson might had uh the comment of the night yeah no I did not know that that’s that’s actually
That’s that’s hilarious though uh at it’s Jay Wills said missing two starters on a back-to-back in altitude just ran out of gas in the fourth Jazz went big bucks had no counter without Brook for size or legs for Speed um that sounds like an excuse Jay wills at he Manson
Says I don’t understand why Pat keeps getting these minutes he’s an absolute train wreck and embarrassment it’s been like this all year are the coaches blind what the hell does it take to get this guy to the lineup Mar or Ajax would be better than having Mr fly by fumble
Hands also Dame has turned also D Dame has turned into that girl that looks good when she wears that certain outfit you only see once in a while the rest of the time she’s really mid so so basically he saying he saying dam is that girl with span on you know
They get the got the little span got the little built-in spandex or whatever to the outfit right but then most of the time she you know she she Ro a dress she she jeans on you like n basically what we call that false advertising yeah yeah deceptive adver
You know STW against that y’all be careful out there killing me do um um Sund night at Todd Maro says seriously we’ll be surprised if Dame is on the team uh past Thursday let’s flee let’s flee someone else and get some assets back please trade Dame no amount of coaching and
Cover up um unless he’s putting up 35 a night cut your losses before it’s too late um at Justin from MC says tough loss uh tough loss just keep these guys healthy and get ready for Phoenix Giannis left early because it was some Giannis left early because it was some
So much bogus stuff in the fourth quarter just mad at the whole thing Utah is weak uh and then at coly Rock says I’m not too pressed about this L bucks ran out of steam Utah couldn’t miss and the referees were very questionable um and then D spone 388
Says a myriad of things went wrong in the fourth refs Miss shots but ultimate balls down two zero his constant nights of inefficient offense really make it so much harder to win not the guy we traded for right now that’s evident will be more concerned after the break so again
Just a lot of talk about Damen Lillard and some of the things um that that went on and and just how how he played I mean he just he again to to me if you were to assign blame for Theon night I would probably say I I would probably blame 30% on it
Being a backto back maybe maybe I blame 35% on it being a back toback and I and I blame the other 65% on just Damen Lillard not playing well because again the back toback didn’t mean if Damen Lillard shot just so he averages what 25
Or something right if he just gave me 20 points tonight the Bucks win the game well that’s eight so he probably need but again the timely Buck if they had been more timely if he give me 20 points on on even maybe 40% 30 a little a tad
Under 40% shooting the Bucs probably win the basketball game uh and and he just didn’t do it he couldn’t do it tonight so the Bucks uh were not Victorious um I want to ask you this um Chris and JT do you think so we talked about last night
You know the maybe it being Catalyst for the bucks and and and what they had going they’re 33 and 17 right now um they have the Phoenix so I want to look because because coming up the Bucks do have uh the Phoenix Suns on Tuesday uh
And then uh and then they have the t- wolves on thurs so again to to finish up this two two very tough games uh against quality opponents how how big and and again the eighth is also that the game is Timber Wes on the eighth is the trade
Deadline how big is are is that game against Phoenix do you think that like that John horse will be watching that Phoenix game and will be making fin decisions on who to trade that night does he already have this stuff already in mind like what what do you think this
Game against Phoenix means given that the bucks on this road trip lost to Portland uh lost to Denver you thought maybe they turn you thought maybe they could Salvage this thing if you you know with after beating um after winning last night and then you come back tonight and
You drop wi against Utah I think everybody would have felt much better going into Phoenix if that had taken place where where are your thoughts now on the road trip and and all all of that that I just kind of threw at you there this road trip is absolutely stunk do
One and three and we’ve seen some of the worst basketball we seen this squad play I I mean again we saw the worst what we see the worst first quarter we’ve seen all season this week and then we saw the worst fourth quarter we’ve seen week I
If I’m John horse my mind’s already made up there’s nothing you can do to say there’s there’s nothing you can do this may have been the last game but I don’t really think the Phoenix game matters at this point I think you know you it’s it’s really about who can we get versus
Who we got to give up and I was hoping that Pat would establish some sort of trade value but feels like the more we play Pat the more we devalue him right the more the more like like the less value he actually has to a team the more
We play Pat like I I don’t I I don’t know man I I just don’t think anybody can really help themselves this point right I mean I don’t know maybe D Bird right maybe he helped himself people saw okay wow this guy sh but he’s been 42% uh three-point shoot his entire career
So not sure anybody helped the case hey J check check your phone JT uh Chris Chris what what do you think on all that yeah I think I agree I think that there’s no way you can watch this basketball team at this point in the season and say there’s just no need to
Make a move yeah there’s no way he’s John horse is thinking that so regardless of what happens um you know you you you just kind of have to wonder like they’re probably already having some moves in place they they probably got some things going for them that that
They that they want to do and and some guys some targets but it’s all about like who has really shown enough for you to get those trades off um and so whether whether you’re riding some HIDs with Bobby right now he’s had a couple
Good games in a row um or you know you just see who takes who who bites the hook on on on a guy like Pat so uh yeah I don’t know man I I just think that this this Suns game isn’t all that important to the trade deadline I think
That if you’re going to make a move they already know who’s going and who’s staying so snaky 973 says he agrees about trading Dame and says uh trade Dame for some are more consistent even if they are less flashy someone who can get us 20 and play defense and I mean I
Just don’t I I I again I don’t think you can do that again so as much as I’m talking about Damen Lillard you can’t trade him right now I like I again and that’s why I was so against and it might end up working out but again I was so
Against blowing up uh uh getting rid of Doc Rivers I mean excuse me getting rid of Adrien Griffin because you can’t make these huge big trades and these big stuff midseason and think that it’s going to work out immediately like that’s not how this game is played
You’re not just G to bring in another quote unquote star or someone you know star adjacent guy next to Giannis in in freaking January in February and think that that oh yeah this is gonna this is gonna push them into a title I promise
You I assure you it is not so the best thing here is to stay the course you’ve already made you know a huge adjustment in season already you can’t do another one again you can flip the bench you can flip the guys aren’t important but again you can’t trade somebody right now like
A Brooke like a Chris like a like a Damen Lillard you can’t do that it’s too much turbulence with you with your basketball team and again you’ve been in plays planes can with handle you know some types of turbulence and and again and and they are very well-made
Structures and and and and objects right but there comes a point you on you know I watched these little plane doc these document where the planes crash and you know even though I fly semi-regularly but I still like to watch them I don’t know why but it’s like there comes a
Point where you stall out and the pilot you can’t get that plane back once it go there there because there I mean I don’t think people know how many I don’t say near disasters that people go through but Pilots are very well trained to get planes back even when it looks like
They’re at the point of no return but there is a point of no return and when you stall out you can lose everything and again maybe I think you can get it back with the firing of Adrien Griffin because I think you because you’re going
To get the locker room Buy in of a Doc Rivers so you can Pro but that is a rocky thing to do you’re not going to trade Damen l in the middle of the season and think that this thing is going to turn around I don’t care who
You get back I don’t care who you get back it’s not going to happen yeah I’m a little uh shaken up by the plane analy like come on man like that’s what Tre does in his free time I guess you speak speaking have you seen the new uh what’s that movie on
Netflix the plane went down they was eating each other the short answer is no hell no I saw it I saw in the mountains they was in the mountains with it and they was talking all yeah I still watch it I still watch what’s wrong with y’all everything on
Netflix ain’t there to be watched what yall what’s wrong with y’all it was top 10 bro everybody everybody’s watching it that my top 10 I’m watching somebody in the chat tell me what that movie what was that movie called CHR you know somebody in the chat tell me what that
Movie was called there was in the they was in the mountains they were they were like a Venezuelan soccer team and they end up eating each other rugby team rugby team they end up eating each other in the mountains they were stuck there for like 90 days back true story too JT
From back in let me tell you something true story oh that that’s like is that the show is that actually no it’s Netflix I know because I just watched it I’ve heard I’ve heard about this mess I’m not watching it and listen man if you in the middle of the Forest man you
Better find you some berries you better figure this thing out right they wer in the forest they was in a mountain no they was in the SN avalan in yeah in the in the uh in the Aldi is the alies something like yeah come on JT you had
To eat somebody yeah to eat him listen Adrian Griffin getting eight right now better find that one was bad hey that is the PA all right wait so how does this tie into the Bucks my point my point is their plane stalled out and the pilots couldn’t get it back you cannot trade
Damen Lillard I don’t know how I made the analogy but you know what I’m saying you can’t trade him one punch man thank you he say city of snow it was called city of snow I don’t know if it was city of snow I don’t think so one oh now what come on
One punch he’s it’s Society of snow come on one punch there you go that was it maybe AO correct listen I I I I agree with you that you’re past the point of of of no return at this point because you’ve gone all in you really have made
And which is why I think you have one more big swing in you at the uh at the trade deadline you got to take another swing at this point at something right this this trade deadline at this point with the pressure of getting rid of Adrian Griffin you can’t just go get dep
Guys right you can’t just say yeah I just want to improve our bench you got you got to go get you you you got to go get a hitter you got to go get someone who I think materially can assist with altering the chemistry of this squad
Also I want to ask you I want to ask you a question I want to ask you a question so let’s let’s stay there on that so you’re saying that you don’t think it’s enough and this is just a question you don’t think it’s enough that Doc Rivers
Getting control of this team and implementing the things he wants to implement and again he’s only had he’s like said he just had the first practice on Friday you don’t think that an incremental changes to the bench maybe a six-man of guy can impact this basketball team you think they’ve got to
So basically you’re saying because the only way they can do that is if Bobby Porters they they have to use Bobby Porter as a contract to get something of legitimate value back so you’re you’re telling me that it has to be Bobby Porter Pat Maran something some kind of
Of trade like that that’s G to try and get the most back it can’t just be something incremental no and and and and here’s why listen this team is it good enough to win a championship maybe 100% maybe right if if if they’re playing if I take
The back if they’re playing at their best absolutely they can win right but I think the Practical reality is that with all the moves you’ve already made of going all in if you got another move you can make at this point to go all in and
Try to get and and and and try to make this thing happen you do it right I don’t think you’re done making moves at this point because that doesn’t quite Jive of what you’ve done over the last six months right like you went out you got D you went out you hired giannis’s
Guy you went out you got rid of giannis’s guy you went out you hired doc you you hire doc mid-season for him to come take over right and H for him to coach the team two games before he even practices with the team like yo like you
Already made these seismic moves so yeah looking at what you’ve done already at this point if you got another move to make it’s got to be a big one it can’t it can’t you can’t just go get a couple depth guys and go yeah you know this
Will this will be okay like n like you said the point of no return you all in now yeah you can’t chips in the middle of the table you can’t go get a Serge Ibaka we saw that experiment worked out um no yeah but so yeah I don’t know he
Yeah he was awful uh yeah I think that you definitely have to make an important move and a move that will catch the attention of people around the league like it can’t just be oh they just traded some you know bench players for more bench players that you know may
Maybe are inconsistent so I I think you really got to make some waves and I think they’ve been rumored to be trying to do that I mean when you see some of the tweets that that they’re involved with de Jon Murray DeAndre Hunter um guys like that like that those would be
Good moves those would be important moves but I also think I part of me thinks that this team can figure it out within itself there’s no reason for me to think that they can’t uh but they’re just going to have to get some consistency more consistency out of the guys that
They already have and out of the guys that have basically played themselves out of being traded because they’re worth nothing now so I think yeah yeah no I I I I I I somewhat agree I I just again I just I would not be surprised if
We’re not able to do a lot but again John horse has surprised me in the past but I I do think it’s going to be a a a more marginal move one of those sneaky good moves versus a big name like a dejonte Murray or something like that I
Just don’t know that we’re gonna be able to pull it off again hats off to John horse if he’s able to I don’t know that it does kin Racine says hassin has the money can we get one bench player that is decent um again this really doesn’t
Have anything to do with ham having the money this is all to do with the salary cap has some having money you know impacts more about um you know that’s going into luxury tax and whatnot but that doesn’t really when you’re in season salaries are already set you got
To match salaries at this point um and you know that was more to do with coaching that’s off the books and what you want to do with that that’s you know having the ability to to be able to fire an agent Griffin and pay his contract
Out and pay a contract a bud out and bring in a doc Griff and paying $40 million as well but again this is the this is the the NBA has a cap they the Bucks are strapped as far as how much they can do and what wiggle room they
Have and they just don’t have a lot of great it’s a top heavy basketball team they don’t have a lot of great assets the assets they do have that they can really use and move are guys they got to use they got to use Chris Milson they
Gotta use Brook Lopez and so those are the guys that really are would probably pop some eyeballs as far as other teams other GMS um and you know we we’ll see what Bobby Porter is if they want to use him what he can fetch and again a guy who
One of the guys who I really I really think it would be a good guy to look at when you wanted for trading purposes who has played his way into hey this is a great guy on a lower tier contract I’ll slip him in here with a bobby Porter
Something like that AJ Green AJ Green I mean there what what kind of team do I mean especially like a young team that wants to do something why wouldn’t you want a young player like look at Cleveland right now and what they’re doing with Sam Maro and again I say this
About AJ Green because I like he is a very good player he is a very good I I really think he has an opportunity to be a good player in this league his three-point shooting his Elite and then he Al I don’t know if you knows he he’s
Like one of the better Defenders like on the wing like he’s a better Defender than Pat ctan by far he keeps guys in front of him like he does a very good job and I just think some team could really really use him that want a young
Guy and may be interested and giving the Bucks something that they can use um as well at Drew beer says after they lose to Phoenix Drew B is like a known pessimist he’s a glass has half empty kind of guy on Twitter he says after they lose to Phoenix on Tuesday and have
A one and four road trip it’ll be interesting to see what moves horse makes uh and then Freeman flash 31 says going from Drew to Dame has left us in a defensive nightmare Drew winning votes such as best teammate and most underrated is definitely noticed glaring
Hole in our back court for Christ’s sake keontay George got a double double on uh him and bees he says by the way I love Dame and then 14 Coco chick says uh needed Dame to be good and he wasn’t they haven’t they can’t beat anyone when
Is the only star that shows up Dame got outplayed by Colin seon um so yeah I don’t you know it’s it’s just uh like you said tonight tonight was unfortunate that’s all that’s all I’ll say tonight was unfortunate I’m not I’m not bent out of shape what’s because what the bcks
Record they’re still you know they are still uh 33 and 17 uh five games back so I think the one seed is probably out Out Of Reach um you’re half a game up on Cleveland a full game up on the Knicks NE this Phillies is spiraling now with
The Joel latest news from Joel and B so the Bucks are in a great position um to be a top three SE in the East I believe they’ll probably end up with that two seed that’s where I think they’re gonna they’re going to finish out but um again
We talked about this so much throughout the year that we’re not going to complain until after the break and we’re going to see all these we’re going to we’re going to wait and so I think we I want to see what happens to the deadline I want to see what happens after the
All-Star break and once that takes place then we’ll be able to fully evaluate this team and again Doc Rivers is now a coach so you got to allow him some chances to implement the things he wants to implement I thought the books play well for some stretches tonight but they
Just didn’t have enough to get it done um JT Chris some last thoughts before we get the game balls and and our look around man I cannot wait for this uh road trip to be over this road trip has has stunk it’s absolutely stunk you can
Find a lot of reasons why it’s stunk we’ve seen we’ve seen you know from lack of bench production inconsistent play from D perimeter defense pick a reason pick a weakness we have seen all of them exposed during this road trip so I just cannot wait till this thing is over and
Done I saw some comments in you know the chat that that kind of was talking about how we do need to get younger and I totally agree that’s not something that uh we need to talk about right now but uh regardless of how you finish in this
Playoffs it’s going to be a conversation in the offseason and we’ll have those conversations but for right now you just can’t you you probably can’t deal a Dame when you’ve only seen half of a season from him and you know you probably do need to get younger at some point but
But those conversations are are to be had later no I I to again 100% agree with that and yeah those will happen if the bucks if the Bucks flame out this year again and we’ll have plenty of discussion to talk about it when if it happens if they flame out everybody’s
Going to be on the table to be talked about including including including everybody but Giannis obviously uh and yeah that includes Brook Lopez and incl Chris Milton because again wouldn’t you love to have a Chris Milton tonight but oh he can’t play back Tob backs because he’s always you know he’s dealing with
Nagging injuries again that’s not a that’s not a shot at Chris that’s just a reality of where he is as a player right now you’d like to have a guy that you can count on and depend on you know at all times the bookes don’t have Chris W
Is just not that right now he he can’t be that and hopefully it it will show up in the playoffs um let’s get to uh at James James sario 12 says y’all reading the comment area online oh well I don’t know if you’re talking about the Twitter
Live but James I’m reading this comment live if you watching it yes and I just read your comment about the P Steph Curry’s wife W to be polished if you heard it you heard me read it uh so I’m just saying game ball tonight uh you
Guys go first where do you want to go with with your game balls I’m G give it I mean you could you really could just give it to Giannis every night for showing up man I mean you really could I would I would say Bobby but Bobby did
Kind of fall apart later on later on this game but um yeah I’m G get mine to Giannis man for I mean so especially coming off last night’s game uh you played 40 minutes tonight he coming off a back to back and he put up damn near 50 points last night
Like man Giannis for being Mr consistent and Giannis for showing up for this team every single night in the same way being reliable the only person on this team that is reliable besides people that are reliably bad Yannis yeah once you take Giannis off the board it’s kind of like where the
Hell do I go because uh I felt like Bobby kind of got cooked in in the final minutes um on the defensive end so that kind of that kind of hurt us I’ll give it to Malik Beasley obviously he missed a couple at the end but uh do like to
See him kind of sticking up for Giannis I like that that team camaraderie that you see out of that um bumping Colin seon when he really didn’t have much to talk about like why was he talking crap why was he talking mess to to Giannis
After he made a a floater like come on dog like and yeah you had a you had a good first half but where were you the next half so yeah I mean yeah I’ll give it to Malik Beasley for just kind of it feels like he’s bought in and and I’m
Glad that that he’s here for some reasons uh obviously just shooting the ball uh yeah I don’t know how y’all be giving it to the bucks when they lose you know me you got to win to get in uh I’m going to give it to you know what
I’m actually G to give it to the Utah crowd tonight um I you know if you watch the the game right and you listen to the game and those moment those big momentum plays that took place um when con con se’s issue when when he got into it uh
From the threes that went down from just the that place on a Sunday night in Utah that basketball team is a g what are they game under five they’re 25 and 26 with the win right I don’t know if they just bored out in Utah they got nothing
To do um and but again it could have just be the it was the Milwaukee Bucks coming in town uh but the Utah Jazz are 10th right now battling with the Houston Rockets and the Golden State Warriors just not just to be squarely in the play
In but just to have the to be the last seed of the play in that’s what they’re batt you know I guess you know they they only two games out of out of eight at that point but Utah that that place was rocking tonight there were a couple
Calls that took place where I mean there you know guys you shoot the ball and then you know somebody dunk it after on the rebound or something the crowd didn’t even hear the whistleblow like that’s how loud it was they cheering after a fouls being call for a dunk
Being put in because they couldn’t hear it and so I just thought that crowd uh they were you know it sounded I don’t want to say it’s a playoff atmosphere I didn’t go that far books on back to back but it sounded um very loud here I was
Listening to the Utah broadcast um and you know I thought they were kind of homering but uh but I thought they did they did a real good job and also the thing that I just hate you know it seems like the books got to get there their
You know I talked about this before the bcks got to get their their announcing crew set because Marcus Johnson get these older guys and he but he’s missed like half the games this year like I I can’t I I just I just can’t watch Steve Novak you know
I don’t like Steve Novak I can’t watch it um yeah I go into it but yeah man watch out them libraries Steve books Steve’s scared of books right yeah yeah move to Florida for all that uh hkin says uh if you talk if you Trash Talk Dame you don’t understand basketball so hikage
Okay okay let me just just stop there for a second can you read do you well well well this is my question when you say trash talk Dane what do you want me to call I I just I because this this is my issue with the with the Damen Lillard stands
What do you want me to call a guy that that is that not not just a regular guy but a superstar that puts up 12 points no rebounds six assists and goes five 18 and one of eight from three what do you want me to talk do you what how do you
Want me to talk positively about the game that Damen Lillard had and by the way he missed the free throw so he’s one for two from the line how how H how do you want me to talk positively about what he did tonight that’s my question
Back to you hik so if you want to stay here and what do I look around and if you want to come back and answer that that’d be great because I don’t some am am I missing something like how do we how how what what what positive spin do
I give that and again we’ve already went through HK I don’t know if this is your first time commenting so I don’t know if what one of the things we’re talked about already is the the amount of excuses that Damen Lillard gets and he’s G he’s he’s been G and really I don’t
Know that and I don’t know that Damen lard is making all these excuses but his fans and he stands y’all make these excuses for him so I’m not even putting that on him because I heard him say it everybody’s made a bunch of excuses for
Him and you know at the end of the day you’ve got to play better and tonight was another night that he didn’t we’ll give him all the flowers when he does like last night excellent tonight very bad like it wasn’t just man it wasn’t okay tonight was bad like
Objectively he was bad he was bad hi said and it say hit says he creates space for Giannis yeah he does we we nobody’s disagreeing with that but dog hkin nobody brought a superstar in to just create space for Giannis that like do you just bring people you know what
We got you know we go we’re going to ship out through holiday we’re going to have our defense look like ass we going we going to get get a guy who can’t stop a cold or nose bleed and you know what’s going to be his redeeming quality he’s
Going to open up space for Yiannis no no he’s Dame time dog like what are you talking about nobody brought it we brought him in to he done tap to watch one time this year no I brought him in a tap watches I can’t even wear my ring on
The on the damn show because I ain’t tapping nothing no no no I didn’t bring him in to create space for y that’s a lie that that is some that is some that is some loser that is some loser stuff from hiking right there you don’t bring
Nobody in to create SP like like like how here’s the thing you I’m sorry I’m going off tangent you’re saying if you Trash Talk D don’t understand basketball well I’m and I’m telling you that what is what are your thought you must not think Damen lard is good you must think
He’s ass I don’t I I think Damen lard is a very good top level top 75 player that’s what I I ain’t never heard a top 75 player in they best traded well you know what he gonna create space that’s what he gonna do we get top 75
You ever heard somebody get top 75 being a Hall of Fame space Creator you ever heard of that come on man y’all y’all get on nerves man if if anything a space creator that might keep you on a team might keep you a roster because there’s 15 spots right so
You might keep the 14th man and be like well look worst case scenario he gonna create space for the other people to right I’m sorry I’m I’m laughing but yeah we dealing with I I we’re still getting comments about how we’re we need to chill out and we’re on a back toback
Like it it’s it’s not that and we’re and honestly I don’t think we’ve been unfair to the Bucs tonight I think we we recognize that but all season we’ve been you know we we will actually give our constructive criticism and our hardest criticism when it’s March and April and
We need to be playing our best ball but tonight I don’t I don’t feel like we’re we’re too unfair to the Bucs no no no no no and again that again so hi again I think you’re you’re right Chris I’m not unfair to the Bucs at all because
Getting the majority of them had good nights and and it’s not about we’re not talking about just running out of gas we’re talking about one guy who didn’t run out of gas he never filled his tank up tonight he came into the game on e d
He was like say what I’m not gonna I’m call space Spade Jame was trash tonight um Crush yeah right you said crushman said You know guys sat too yeah we’re yeah that’s that’s not the we’re not even really talking about the end result again tonight was about the the poor
Play of Damen Lillard um and again so it says it’s not the back toback Dame didn’t play a good game and most of the shots took didn’t fall but again that’s that’s a majority of nights how many times do we come in here if you’ve been
Watching this show come back hey come on in the room when we do this show Tuesday again hopefully plays better but then we’ll do the show another we’ve been doing this show every single night right we do this show every single night that the Bucks play and how many times we
Come here and say the opposing guard outplay Damen L didn’t we just do Denver we just play different didn’t didn’t Jamal wor just outplay every night we come here every night and go well did we just do didn’t we just see uh who was it Anthony Simons did you just see out
Every night we come in here and we go the opposing guard outplay Daman I’m not sitting I’m not hating I’m not talking try this is objective this like people think we would we do you think we want Dame not to play well I want to come in
Here and talk about how I talk about how well Damen lill play and how the Bucks are gonna beat the breaks off everybody and go to a championship that’s what I love to talk about I don’t I don’t want to talk about Damen Lillard shooting his
Poorly from the field I don’t want to talk about how yet another sub tier guard has outplayed Damen lard I just saw Donovan Mitchell do it in Cleveland how many I mean I saw Jaylen bruss how many every time we go down a list of guys Detroit every night man like this
Is not a like this is like like you’re you’re you’re killing me man I’m just watching this every single night and I see it happen and I’m calling it out as I see it happen and that’s what we’re doing I’m not we’re not on his Pace to
Just call out d and again and D Harris says Yiannis shows up every night pass the ball right and that’s why I don’t have to do it to Giannis because and again if he was stinking it up I’d do it to him too but he doesn’t um so uh so
That’s that you know so anyway that that’s we we got off the rails there for a second Let’s uh let’s let’s wrap this thing up do some uh and and go around the league um tonight the Bucks lose it of course 123 108 to the Jazz um the
Magic get a win 11199 over the Pistons the Suns beat the Wizards Clippers beat the heat heater 26- 24 p beat the Hornets Celtics blew out the Grizzlies uh the Thunder I think came back from from down big to beat the Raptors tonight uh the timber wolves 1190 over
The rockets and then the uh Denver Nuggets 112 103 get the victory over the Portland Trailblazers um big news out of the NBA tonight is uh was that Joel embiid uh will require surgery they have not done a timetable for how long he’s going to be out this obviously impacts what’s
Going to happen out east I thought we were probably looking at at a shorter absence from him but the only thing I saying again I’ll keep it short on on Philadelphia is man I mean I feel for the fans out in Philly and so we’ve had people come in
The chat talking about try and Damen Lillard if I’m the Philadelphia 76ers in the offseason the guy I’m looking to trade is joeel and bid and I don’t say that being factious or anything I mean I mean JT what’s defition Sandy doing the same thing over and over again expecting
A different result every night every year is Joel andb he gonna be hurt so again I think you can get a hall for him this year he probably wouldn’t won would have won MVP if he had play if he contined to play um but he did get
Injured this year and we’ll see there’re they’re saying they haven’t ruled out that he may be able to come back at some point but if he even if he comes back he’s not gonna be 100% it it’s it’s it’s pointless um again I would trade Joel
Embiid at the end of this season I don’t want to say you want to build around Tyrese Maxi but I think you get an absolute Hall if you’re Philadelphia and you just start this thing over I I said this on Twitter and somebody was like
Well do you think the fans would go for it but they went for they went for like five years of tanking and and got to the and didn’t get out of the second round like that’s that’s what that fan B that fan base wouldn’t they trust the process
The process got them to the second round the NBA playoffs and so yeah I think they absolutely would be okay with starting it over um because again this is this was the B and again and I hope Joel embiid you know much success prayers up uh teas and peas to him but
This is the basketball guys you can’t you can’t cheat the game and that’s what the Phi 76ers organization tried to do they tried to cheat the entire game by tanking they were a disgrace for doing what they did it was disgraceful uh what the Phil 76 organ organization did so do
I feel bad for Jan beid absolutely do I feel bad for the philw 76ers I do not this is exactly what they deserve not to make it out of the second round to not have a superstar who can who can hold up again gut it for for Joel embiid not his
Fault though I’m not putting it on him I’m just saying what that organization did was was shame uh and again you reap what you s so uh so that’s what Philly’s getting right now they’re 38 they’re 30 and 18 everybody talk about Nick nurse yeah
Well he’s gonna have to find a way to do it with Tyrese Maxi and uh and and Tobias Harris and and and Pat Beverly see see if Pat Beverly now now he can show up at 30 he used to get in high school yeah Sam Hinkle’s words haunting
The the 76ers once again and it will forever at this point the the you know the process is flawed right you can say trust the process the pro but the process is Flawless you can’t trust nothing and the reality of it is that mid’s now torn the same miniscus two
Times since 2017 this the second time as well right so yeah if you’re G to move on off of him near the 76ers it’s this is the off season to do it right once he gets cleared and once he gets healthy this is this is certainly when you do it
Because I think as Age come as age creeps up and the way he plays these injuries aren’t going anywhere and I don’t think you’re going to see another season where I don’t I don’t think you’re going to see a single season where he plays over 65 games from here
On out yeah and who knows knows if he’s able to recover and and become the same player that he that he was at the start of this season and he’s been hooping uh yeah it’s just tough it’s unfortunate for the Philly fans but you know they’ve
Had some success in in football at least so maybe they just uh they they pay more attention to that and in baseball as well uh with the Phillies so maybe they just pay more attention towards those two teams and and you know wait a little bit for for the rebuild because I do
Think Tyrese Maxi is a good guy to kind of build around and he’s he’s still really young yeah he he is Young I do think again right now I think he he’s a two he made that J from a 3 to2 I don’t think he to jump from a 2 to one but
Maybe he will in time what is tar like 23 24 yeah 23 24 something like 23 so yeah so I think yeah there there’s still a chance that he he becomes a very impactful player he is an impactful player but he becomes a star in this
League we’ll see if that happens for him uh but right now just not there yet um real quick side note uh you remember how Joel andb was supposed to play with Team USA in the playoffs or in the in the Olympics sorry so that that’s something to keep an eye on wonder if
We’ll have the the depth at the center spot now uh obviously we’re we’re just heading shoulders better than everyone we’re going to we’re going to prove no alli’s wrong man look this we’re the world champions all right uh what’s what’s your boy uh your boy uh d i you
Saw Draymond Green on his podcast talking about I wanted to be invited but you know he didn’t get invited so may maybe he will get the call now um to get to the uh maybe he’ll get the call now um to get on Team USA uh a couple more
Comments before we get out of here Colin Ray says who’s the bigger bus who’s the bigger bus Ben Simmons or JaMarcus Russell that’s a good question Ben Sim by far okay because he never produced in the league Ben Simmons at least produced some in the league for for for a short
Period of time JaMarcus Russell I’ll never forget when uh Lane kein they gave JaMarcus Russell at the time a DVD a film study right but it was a blank DVD and they asked him and they was like this is all the film cut ups that you
Need to watch or whatever they asked him next day if he watched it he was I watch the whole thing and it was nothing and they knew this dud wasn’t watch nothing Johnny Manzel zero film zero film study zero hours zero because of where he was drafted easily might be one of the
Biggest bust in across every sport in North America big than Ryan Leaf honestly like I don’t even remember I haven’t looked at Ryan Leaf’s numbers so I really can’t like I mean I up there with him I’ll tell you that definitely up there with at least yeah at least at
Least Ben Simmons was a three-time Allstar right like at least and he was an all NBA team too right so I’ll give him that that’s that’s Head and Shoulders above the type of player JaMarcus Russell ever want yeah I would say probably Demarcus Russell but um just the way Ben Simmons
Has flamed out and kind of you know been in his own head and the way he’s gone out I think he went out in the worst way yeah no he definitely he he had he definitely went out sad he he went out he went out sad that’s the best I can
Say um let me see Jamarcus Russ I just want to look this up JaMarcus Russell threw for 4,083 yards in his career W it’s only two years in the league well there’s three uh 18 touchdowns 23 interceptions Ryan Leaf wow Ryan Leaf only threw for 3600 yards uh 14
Touchdowns 36 interceptions so Ryan Lea statistic LEF Jamarcus wrestler had a better career here uh then Ryan Leaf Ryan Leaf was the second overall pick though uh and JaMarcus Russell was a one so what’s that what’s that what’s that next what’s that Netflix movie if anybody still in the chat you remember
The Netflix movie where these idiots was driving around and blindfolds and stuff the was that bird box or whatever that was Bullock or whatever people yeah Ryan Leaf was playing quarterback with a little blindf thought 36 go yeah yeah what what’s somebody from the Jets Sam D
When he was seeing ghost out there yeah how it went um yeah so Nick C says uh this team play better offensively and defensively without Brooke now we’re talking they’re talking about the you know whether whether they bucks could have used Brook Lopez I I think they
They absolutely could have I thought I thought not having Brooke wasn’t issue for his basketball team I know a lot of people are down on Brook I’m not I think um you know I I I think he’s definitely missed when he’s down on the floor he
Does have value I think his problem is when he gets to just shooting you know threes you know that just getting a little three happy but other than that I think glz has played much better in Doc River’s uh system to be honest with you I think he just didn’t fit the Agent
Griffin scheme of things um but again I think he’s just been a little more sure of himself and he’s got to get worked out in that offensive end uh a 123 to oh man it changed up on me uh it was a 123 to 108 loss the jazz beat the Bucks
Tonight um any uh any final words before we uh set this thing off and then the Bucks are back on uh Tuesday night woo I don’t know if JT is gonna make that one it’s it’s a 10 p.m. Eastern start so JT might might be call on that one though

The Bucks held a 19 point lead but couldn’t finish off the Jazz on the road in a hostile environment. Dame took 18 shots and only scored 12 points as he battled an ankle injury. Doc Rivers drops to 1-3 as Head Coach of the Milwaukee Bucks.

I realize Dame's efficiency is down, but his numbers are pretty close to his averages for his career (25-4-7) and he's not the main option anymore. He usually gets better throughout the season. Dame did not play well tonight and I don't like seeing all these turnovers but Dame will lock in. Shame on anyone who says "tRAdE dAmE"
Well said
Dame has been so super inconsistent. If he at least scores his average (25) per game we winning 90% of the time. When he has these horrible shooting nights and he's scoring 15 points or less we probably aren't going to win. We need him to score. That's why we brought him here. We could've gotten 15 or less from Jrue.
Blame who you want but Doc is not a good coach. The king of not being able to adjust. I promise you will complain about adjustments all season
Not only is Dame shooting so Inconsistent, but his live ball turnovers are really troubling . The bucks are paying him a lot of money , and so far his production is way below his pay grade .
Bobby good offensively, terrible defensively, he's gotta go imo. Yes Bobby, Bobby chant is cool but Bobby bye bye.
Bunch of excuses lol. Giannis got a dose of his own medicine when Sexton bull dozed him. Bucks got cooked by the Jazz twice đ. Yâall going to be 5th seed by the end of the month
Celtics had 5 games in 7 days it wasnât just a back to back and they had to travel after the game to Milwaukee. Got there at 3 and played at 6 lol. Stop comparing the two teams. We are in first by 5 games. Yâall are about to be third!
You should rename the show to bucks uprise and get new graphics
