Game Thread Game #58 - BLAZERS @ BUCKS - FEBRUARY 14, 2022 - MONDAY - 5:00 PM (PDT) ROOT SPORTS

[Predator]

Defensively, Crawford was like CJ. Didn’t even try. Ant tries.

Is that why Crawford has a *much* better defensive rating than Simons?

 

[Hoopguru]

“I aint playin for no …draft pick”

 

[LayneStaley]

We won the Pels trade. Addition by subtraction.

 

[blazerkor]

And the NOLA fans are thrilled to have CJ tonight instead of Hart.

 

[illmatic99]

You were quite the critic of the trades.
I hope you see the simplicity of (as I say) DAWGS OVER PRIMA DONNAS....
There's gotta be more to this game than salaries, assets, and analytics. And there is.
This is a joy to watch. You nailed it, BBIQ is better, style of play is better.
Joe aint done yet.

I was critical because we got shit value for trades. Nothing has changed in that regard

 

[Mediocre Man]

Hughes looks like a young Harrison Barnes

That’s Harrison Fucking Barnes to you

 

[Labinot41]

Give me the Suns in the 1st round, the team not scared of anyone

 

[illmatic99]

Middleton carried the ball like 8 times that possession

 

[blazerfan11]

Are some of you still pretty sure we're going to lose?

 

[Predator]

Defensively, Crawford was like CJ. Didn’t even try. Ant tries.

LOL

 

[illmatic99]

Who is this team. What a terrific defensive possession

 

[blazerfan11]

I know Hart is shooting better than normal right now, but is there one person in here who would trade him now straight up for CJ?

Trade him back? Hell no.

 

[Fairly-Hard]

Does Ant still need another three?

 

[Cugel]

BMac can make nice passes when he wants to. Should do it more.

 

[Fairly-Hard]

The Bucks have not quit yet.

 

[blazerfan11]

Why in the hell is Billups having Josh Hart play point guard?

 

[illmatic99]

Hughes. We dont play that way anymore. You dont have the clearance to go on no pass possessions bro

 

[illmatic99]

Why in the hell is Billups having Josh Hart play point guard?

Dsj is hurt

 

[Fairly-Hard]

Why in the hell is Billups having Josh Hart play point guard?

Ant needed a rest.

 

[OneSport3]

Ant is 22 smart guy. He’ll improve. Plus you can’t compare defensive rating from when Crawford played. The game has changed. Rules have changed.

 

[Fairly-Hard]

One thing I’m seeing is Nurk complaining less to the refs after he misses a shot.

Must be glad we got rid of MeJ.

 

[blazerkor]

I'm loving the play of this team but I think some people in here are getting a little ahead of themselves on just how good this roster is. I think it's a bunch of better fits but far less talent so while the ball being played is actually better, I don't think the results will be. I guess we'll see.

 

[Mediocre Man]

It will be a fun forum next year when people are bitching about Dane not playing like the others

 

[Fairly-Hard]

Must be glad we got rid of MeJ.

Not sure how that would affect him complaining to the refs but sure.

 

[blazerkor]

Must be glad we got rid of MeJ.

You mean the guy with 20 points on 11 shots tonight?

 

[Wade Garrett]

I would totally agree 100%.

 

[Fairly-Hard]

That kind of hustle is why Elleby is playing.

 

[blazerfan11]

Elijah Hughes plays with poise and is smooth. He already looks like he belongs more than CJ.

Just needs to make some shots. He's getting himself good looks.

 

[HailBlazers]

Honeymoon phase
