    Disagree. He's better than Walker is.

    Trendon could have all of Jabari's minutes

    I think Walker is going to be a way better role player. He's taller, he rebounds, he defends, and he plays smart. In theory he can also shoot.

    This season still might suck, but two wins in a row has me wondering how much, and why. It could suck if we just barely miss the playoffs.

    I joked with Stren about tanking this game, and how these are the ones “you have to lose”. Hoping we went into this one ready to play to lose.

    Realistically, any win is good for this young team. The future looks great right now. The Bucks also lost and Dame has only had 1 great performance with them so far. Bucks SHOULD be undefeated. 2-2.

    That really stinks.
    Hayes knew he was rolling into Scoot's legs.
    Taking out a guy like that should be a serious foul and reviewable after it happens.

    This is how it started. There should be no expectation that another player is going to roll into your legs.
    Hayes should have dove for the ball in the direction of the ball, but instead decided to chop block Scoot.

    So damn impressed with Camara. Kid makes all the right plays and his defense last night late in the game was really impressive. Scary part is I think he so much more to offer as his playing time increases I think we’ll see him consistently knock down 3’s and be the ideal 3 and D player.

    Agreed… dirty fucking play by that piece of shit, should be able to be reviewed & retroactively penalized, somehow. Pretty disgusting play, honestly.

    Finally getting to watch this game. Jerami Grant reminds me of Harvey Grant, in exactly the way where, when we had Harvey, we really needed Horace instead.

    Really enjoying how rugged Ayton is while still having a bunch of playmaking ability. I see why he was such a good pickup for us.

    Haha, and it sounded like Miami only wanted to give up one of them for Lillard.
