    They are a small notebook you can fit in your pocket in some cases. I use one pretty much every day.

    Is this some trendy new counselor-appointed journal that everyone should be familiar with nowadays? It looks just like ... a journal.

    No. It’s just an old journal.

    Regardless of how he feels now, he will come to love Milwaukee. They're the kind of underdogs he has aways been. Good, solid people who will show him love.

    Saw my first Bucks Lillard jersey today in Denver. I almost crashed my car.

    "it was fun... seeing different "types" of players that I've grown accustomed to."

    Something tells me Dame's assist numbers will go up. He's never had a wall of bigs skilled at low post offense. Blazers dabbled in big man looks,
    but that fell apart after :

    - LaMarcus rented a U-Haul truck.
    - Joel Freeland had sweaty palms.
    - Enes Kanter had his passport revoked.
    - Nurkic couldn't jump anymore.
    - Melo was youtubing his retirement comeback
    - Zach Collins painted his cast like a sneaker.
    - please stop saying Chris Kaman.
    - Meyers put on a Jedi blast shield helmet.

    The Nurkic/Grant/Lillard out & in combo was working for a bit early last year. But I won't detail what went wrong last season. Because the bad turned into Scoot.

    Just curious if we had kept Jrue and potentially looked at trading Scoot, Sharpe, and even Ant could we have been closer to championship than any year with Dame (talent wise)

    Jrue
    Grant
    Ayton

    solid 3 with two of the guys recent all stars.

    Trade like Scoot and sharpe for OG and Siakam caliber players (I know salaries don’t work but a trade to a team looking to rebuild would have been interesting)

    that said I’m happy with direction we are going

    Interesting alternate universe, but I am pretty sure we that team would still get creamed by Denver and now obviously Milwaukee.

    On the Bucks site, they're giving him all sorts of praise.

    Blazers have been a pushover win for Milwaukee. I'm scared to look at season series over the last 4 years. Bucks fans have been narrowly focused on what their team can do, and haven't glanced over to see what Damian was doing.

    Now that Lillard highlights are filtering through the Bucks fanbase... they're like .... holy mackeral... we just traded brick layer Holiday for this guy ?? My goodness gracious, Lillard looks like pure insanity.

    Let's see what they say when offenses hunt him down in mismatches on defense.
