    Has Dame ever had a "nightmare" team? It seems like Dame has been a nightmare for other teams.

    What's the deal with Brogdon? Can't he pass the ball?

    It's clear to me Dame just hasn't found his fit yet with the Bucks. He's just not comfortable. It will happen, however. And when it does, the Bucks will be terrifying.

    Haven't seen a big with as much irrational shooting confidence as Reath since Slava Medvedenko

    Uh, Scoot came to make a statement. If they can't sag off of him, that's a problem for defenders. He'll start blowing by people to the hoop.

    He's averaging 5.7 assists per/36 min. 0.6 more than his career average.

    Sharpe is averaging 3.0 assists per/36 min.

    You're looking at numbers, not watching the game.
    Dribbling into a crowd, where does that show up on the stat sheet?

    I'm watching the game and confirming the numbers are backing up what I'm watching.

    You're looking for a narrative to prop up the players you like and diminish the players you don't like, regardless of the facts. I hate to break it to you, but every guard on this team (and other teams) dribbles into a crowd at times, including Sharpe, Dame, Giannis, Scoot, etc.

    scoot shoots way too many 3-pointers for my likening (hes not a good 3-point shooter as we all know)

    im happy that he shoots them, in game shooting is the best possible practice, but id like to see him take more mid range shots and more slashing to the basket

    Brogdon is 1-6 on 2-point shot. That's heinous.
