Taurean Prince Discussion: Bucks

Dept of All-Time Letdowns:

Against MIA, when the team was finally home and desperately needed a win to at least emotionally get back on track:
Taurean: bad D, 29 mins: 0 points.
Cam: bad D, 19 mins, 0 points.

To quote Led Zeppelin wildly out of context, "Ooo..makes me wonder."

 

i could see prince being a throw-in on a trade just to get him out of ham's hands, a la beverley last year.

 

Prince would be fine if he played like 20-22 minutes but Ham is way over using him. He benches Dlo and Reaves when their struggling and gives inconsistent minutes to Rui and Vando (all apart of our run last year) while Prince averages a career high in minutes..

He somehow hasn't thought to try our Dlo/Reaves/Vando/Lebron/Davis starting 5.. Any lineup but that, with Prince starting every single game. He's not a good defender, passer or rebounder and he can't shoot at home but he's 3rd in mpg and has started EVERY game..

I just don't know

 

His defense is so bad

 

Great clutch 3. But fouled three point shooters thrice in one game. Need to give up some time to Max

 

Big time redemption plays


Playing 48 minutes a game will do that for you

 

Lol he feels more valued here because he's THIRD in minutes behind LeBron and AD and his role is the ONLY role that has not changed this entire f***ing year despite how he's played.

I do like TP but 30+ minutes a night is way too much for what he does. Needs to be a 20-24 mpg guy and then I'll be happy.

 

11 on 50% shooting w/ a couple 3s. Cool.

But why the f*** are we playing him 34 minutes tonight? Stop.

He should not be playing the same amount of minutes as most of these guys (all within 1.5 mpg as TP):

 

Yuck!

 

Common sense would tell a coach looking at these numbers that scaling back his minutes will result in a more efficient return. Ham sees these numbers and will think that if Prince gets MORE minutes, he can overcome by running faster and working harder. Just needs more reps. Let's get him up to 41 MPG.

 

Prince is really the only SF on the team besides Vanderbilt. Austin, Max and Cam are two guards. Now could we use more 3 guard lineups? Sure

 

As I've been saying... a nothing player. Especially in relation to his minutes. I wonder what his value over replacement is. Probably it's value under replacemnt, really...

 

He's finally benched. I hope he is solid off the bench.

 

Neva lost undefeated still starting

 

Ham is in love with him.

 

Well, you are supposed to love your children, so no surprise there.
