    Be prepared for the announcement GP2 will be out for the year. This isn’t normal to be told he’ll be ready by opening night to damn near the new year now to be out.. clearly a major setback has happened

    Hopefully it gives some guys a chance to rest and heal up and for the team to get in a couple of good practices.

    This doesn’t surprise me at all. When the Bucks were undefeated (they are a top-3 team IMO) they had the softest schedule Ive ever seen. Nice to know our SOS will go down as we get players back from injury and gel more. People forget, we are younger than 25 of the 30 teams in the league. Its a borderline miracle Billups got the early buy-in on effort from such a young squad. I predict it will return in spades with the return of Dame, GPII and a winning streak.

    The way this place puts Payton on this pedestal. Not sure how or why. You guys really think he is going to help this team THAT much? All I keep reading is wait til he gets back….

    I'm wondering what happened last night. I'm hoping the team got to take a night off and run around a bit. Eat, Drink, and be Merry. Kind of seems like they needed to just break away for a bit.
    Rest up and put a good game together tomorrow.

    Is this a “Must Win”? I feel we are overdue for a Sharpe announcing himself to the League game and I’m just going to keep calling for it until I speak it into existence!

    Looks like Lillard, Payton, Johnson, Hart, Little, and Eubanks are all out. Eubanks might play.

    Shit.

    That is ridiculous. One healthy guard besides Sharpe?

    So a 3 guard rotation of Ant, Sharpe, and Winslow.
    I would start Grant at SF backed up by Brown (and tell him not to shoot from the outside)
    Watford at PF, backed up by Walker
    If Eubanks can't go......maybe Badji with a few minutes?
