    Bucks have been playing mediocre ball. New coach, new plays, they'll be some confusing sets.

    Blazers have most definately been playing better lately, especially with Ayton back.

    The first Bucks vs. Blazers match was a really close game. The Blazers quicker, scrappier team messes with the giant slower vets in Milwaukee.

    I'll go out on a limb and say the Blazers win. Then the podcasts can spray confetti like a fire hose.

    Milwaukee is the Miami of Wisconsin!

    A guide to Milwaukee's beaches
    The summer heat calls for a visit to some of Milwaukee's very own tropical paradises for some fun in the sun, and in the water.

    I wasn't mad at Damian for asking out. We really needed to suck to get picks. Not fair to ask him to sit out with fake injuries for the rest of what's left of his prime.

    i spent a week in Madison a few years back. Very pretty compared to the rest of the midwest, but unpopular opinion...... cheese curds are not worth the hype.

    I think it’s a good thing that so much time has gone by. The wound has scabbed over a bit. I think people are in a better place to give him the welcome he deserves.

    Damian Lillard on his return to Portland: “I expect it to be a lot of love, honestly. I’ve always had a great relationship with the city and a great relationship with the fans. I don’t see that changing at all. We had a lot of great times, a lot of high moments, and we’ve shared some low moments. We was always in the fight. We always had sell out crowds, and I showed up and did what I needed to do, every night. I was never a no show, whether I played good or I played bad. In the community, I was present in the city — not just on the floor. That’s why it is what it is when I come here. That’s why this is my home. I expect it to be a lot of love.”

    It's always great to see Nico in PDX. I hope he spoke to Rupert and Camara.

    Missed his shot against Houston and the dagger against OKC due to my son's sporting events. Will miss tomorrow with one of his swim meets.

    Will always be appreciative of his time here but hope I come home to a recorded game of Simons and Scoot kicking his ass.

    Sharpe is on the Blazers "2 weeks" day to day. Meaning nobody has a clue when he'll be back. Last season, the Blazers tweeted 6 consecutive "Gary's debut in 2 weeks" updates.
