Game Thread GAME# 11: BUCKS @ BLAZERS - NOVEMBER 6, 2018 - TUESDAY, 7:00 (PST), NBCSNW

[Rozay]

I feel like this could be an early turning point. Beating Milwaukee to go 8-3 would be awesome.

This win today honestly would have me believing in this season. If we lose I think it’s just another season stuck in that dreaded middle not good enough for a decent playoff run and not good enough for the lottery

 

[SheedSoNasty]

The George Karl Ray Allen , Glenn Robinson, Glen Rice Bucks get an honorable mention ..that was a good team

Did you mean Sam Cassell? I don’t remember Rice being a Buck. I could be wrong though.

 

[THE HCP]

I know it's a home game for us, but man, I didn't realize we've struggled over the years AT Milwaukee. 17 wins and 45 losses? Damn.

I remember the last time I saw the All-Time winningest clubs in the NBA list, the Bucks are up there. They were very good back in the day.

I was thinking more of the Terry Cummings, Sydney Moncrief, Rickey Pierce teams.

We always play like garbage against the Bucks - home or away. Sure would be nice to stop that trend.

You're right...it was Michael Redd not Rice...also Tim Thomas, Sam Cassell and Greg Anthony

Good catch...fixed it

I don't have a good feeling about this one. Greek freak will score at will and Stotts will refuse to double. On paper it looks like we have guys who can guard him. Aminu/Collins. We cannot afford a bad shooting night.

 

[blue9]

This will be tuff game but we need shoot the ball well especially from the 3 point line.

Thanks, Terry!

We beat the Warriors last season when KD put up 50 pts...just have to shut down the other guys

That game in MIL last year was painful. We kept letting ET get destroyed by Giannis alone for like 15 straight possessions.

 

[stampedehero]

I think the thing that makes Giannis so maddening to so many (and so impossible to defend) is that he uses his length so well that he often looks like he's traveling when he's completely legal. This was an excellent example.

That's like playing into an expected losing streak.

 

[stampedehero]

THIS STILL FUCKING PISSES ME OFF!!!! THIS IS ABOUT AS CLEAN OF A BLOCK AS A PLAYER CAN HAVE AND THE FUCKING STUPID ASS REF ANTICIPATES CONTACT. THE ONLY FUCKING CONTACT IS FROM GIANNIS TRYING TO USE HIS OFF ARM.



Sorry, I'm still mad about this obviously and watching it again it was even cleaner than I remembered.

Clean Block. Ref sucks. Players upset. Coaches heave and...……..

The Harkless “Knee Soreness “ is getting old. Put him out of his misery. Not sure how they should handle it but my thinking is it’s getting time to shut him down and start thinking replacement?

 

[JDC]

Thanks, Terry!

This is the case for nearly every team in the league.

So thank the NBA.

You’re old.

He’s not a horse...

 

[LuckyShot]

I'm ready for our typical game against this Milwaukee team. You know, where we struggle against their length and Stotts refuses to try anything to adapt to it. Greek guy gets 20 FTAs if we attempt to guard him in the paint, while he's allowed to change his pivot foot 5 times after picking up his dribble on every other drive. And yet we'll probably hit enough tough shots to stay in it until the end.

This is why I picked the bucks, theyve seem to ve a team that causes the Blazers trouble for a while...

Meaning he can suffer all we want him to.

I bet his version of “suffering” is better than what most of us get on a good day

Is Moe married? I can beat most who aren’t.

Length and a star player chosen by the league to receive favorable calls wherever he goes. I really like Middleton though.

I was talking about world class medical staffs, being a millionaire, getting to play a game for a living. Not that any of those things automatically someone happy, but Id venture to guess his overall situation is going ok...

Still think being married gets me out the door many days.
My back might hurt but I ain’t staying home....

My wife even on her worst days is just amazing to me. Makes me content no matter how the days going, just knowing we get to spend our life together. So totally get what you’re saying.

 

[Scalma]

Bucks are annoying as hell. Nobody is going to stop giannis and Bledsoe always goes off against Portland. Feels like Lopez does too and they didn’t even have him last year. Pat also fits another type of player that usually goes off against Portland; former Blazer scrub that got tossed aside.

If we want to win, we’re gonna need the bench to do the heavy lifting.
