    Dame never tried to run Stotts or Billups out… Makes you wonder.

    That whole signing of Stotts and then releasing Stotts was weird and him landing a job with the Warriors is kind of telling in regards to that. Bucks office staff in disarray.

    And I don’t think anyone here would say that Doc Rivers is a fantastic coach. The coach didn’t win that series in 2008, the players did. KG, Pierce, Allen.

    I’d believe it.

    I’m pretty sure Dame is probably not happy with how his time in MKE has measured up to his expectations.

    Yeah it’s a parody. First time I ever saw that gag was on Spies Like Us.

    Your tweet says the source is via WindhostESPN. Not Windhorst.

    Click that, and it says "parody account" near the top.

    Edit: I was scooped hours ago. Sometimes I'm on a previous page of a thread, and think there have been no posts after the one at the bottom.

    I don't know what your talking about with 2029 picks, I know exactly what the Blazers still have and what they did give up. Maybe it wasn't detailed out completely in a post as it's not a legal brief.

    I've praised Cronin plenty, I loved the Sharpe and Scoot picks and I was very happy with the trade return for Dame and called it a haul.

    I criticize him when it's due such as having this roster with 5 overpaid mediocre vets that makes no sense to have as a group.

    Just seems like you want to praise everything the team does and then when they do something wrong say other fans don't know every little detail so others can't criticize them. I prefer to praise and criticize where appropriate based on what we do know.

    As others said this is a fan message board with our opinions so we can all share those and back them up however we want. I use logic and facts to backup my points.

    This is an interesting tactic. I, for one, would like to hear more about the theory behind this...

    Referring to the above where you were corrected on which pick we traded just a couple days ago.

    I criticize when facts are confirmed and i think we did bad. But the quotes above do contradict each other, if you know exactly what we have and gave up.
    Just sayin…

    My original statement is correct, we may have traded the Milwaukee pick away for Deni. The word "may" is because the actual teams pick that will be sent is unknown. Washington MAY get the Milwaukee pick. Yes Washington MAY not get the pick and instead the Boston or Portland pick.

    If I said we DID trade the Milwaukee pick for Deni I'd have made a misstatement. I never said that.

    My original post there was a short sentence. Yes the following reply has more words with more details. Still, my original post was also correct.

    Dame's team looks over-matched and/or not ready to start their game in Cleveland. Just lucky Cleveland is missing a lot of their shots.

    On their way to 1-6.

    The Bucks had a great record when they fired Griffin last year. I don’t get it. Rivers blew it. He blew CP3/BG and Kawhi/PG (2020) too.

    Only 2 weeks into the season and Bucks are already 6.5 games out of first. How is that even possible??
