If nothing else at least this offseason should be interesting
Despite everything going the other way I am going to choose to believe we are. The NBA cup is one thing, and we can play very well. But I know it’s a very outside chance and takes a reliability it seems we don’t have
IDK how anyone can see how we are playing and think we are contenders right at this moment
Could we go on a hot streak and get lucky? Sure, but I honestly felt better about the playoff ceiling with Khris.
At least with Kuz we will be better setup for the off season/upcoming years
Uhhh please tell me this isn’t saying giannis/bucks themselves don’t see themselves as contenders right?
Everybody ready to admit how important Bobby is coming off that bench?
I think he is acknowledging that the bucks are not talked about as title contenders; rather than claiming we aren’t contenders
Who’s the third guy? Giannis, Dame, and…nobody. You gotta have a third guy that can put up 15 or more…Giannis and Dame can score 50 to 60 together every game so you need that other player who gets you to 70/75 a game…then all the other pieces (bench players) fall in place. All of the teams who are winning have more than two reliable starters that put up points. The only way the bucks go far is if Giannis and Dame pull a Jimmy butler and straight up destroy everyone.
Bobby’s offense is sorely missed
two years in a row, the plan not only lost a wheel it lost an axle.
First coaching debacle and then this year, the expectation of that big three that could never play together. It’s probably a miracle they’re in as good of shape as they are. that’s a testament to giannis and dame. how many team survive such titanic events in back to back years?
Holy clickbait. For context:
>**That’s a big statement for you to say you have great role players.**
>Yeah, we do. You saw what happened in the NBA Cup (in December when the Bucks beat the Thunder in the finale for the midseason tournament title). We were locked in. We were able to go out there and beat one of the best teams in the league in the finals. Like, you never know what can happen. I’ve seen many times teams that click at the right time, and I feel like we can be one of those teams.
>**But Giannis, that’s where the discussion about you guys is so interesting. Two things are happening right now. For one, nobody’s talking about this team anymore as title contenders.**
