Be honest. Can you pronounce Antetokounmpo correctly?

    Their starters are better.
    Their bench is better.
    Their coach is better.

    We need to get healthy quickly.

    Is their bench better? Their bench is pretty trash.

    This is a fair question for sure.

    Pat Connaughton - Hood
    Bobby Portis - Melo
    Bryn Forbes - Giles
    Torrey Craig - Ant
    D.J. Augustin - Elleby

    That would be an ugly game to watch, but I'd give us the slight edge. The starters on the other hand...

    Wow, Vegas has us at +9.5 for the spread. The Bucks have been playing like shit lately. We haven't been playing great and still won't have DJJ back but if I was a betting man I would bet that we'll make it closer than that. If anyone thinks that Jrue is going to shut Dame down one on one, they haven't been paying attention to how Jrue's teams have taken Dame out of games. Jrue constantly has help. I think Dame will go off again tonight and I think we have a chance to win and definitely make it competitive. I bet the spread goes down by two points before the game. A lot of betters will take the Blazers and 9.5 points.

    Bucks' defense has been really bad but Giannis isn't gonna let them lose three in a row. After Lamelo destroyed them last game, I think the Bucks will wake up.

    Combine that with our shorthanded roster, and I think we get blown out tonight.

    That said, if Lemelo can destroy them, think about what God Dame could do....

    I can't expect anything anymore, but as an irrational Blazermaniac, I sure hope they do...

    I definitely agree with the thought that if this gets out of hand by early third, we should raise the white flag and focus on a win in Washington.
