I agree, but as long as we’re serious we should be able to win it easily. They can’t even pressure anymore with lillard, allowing one of our defenders to roam more. Too bad though, I like and respect Lillard, but he’ll be back strong next year. Once we finish Portland, we need to take care of bad guys. . Several times.
It's a shame Dame's season ended that way. He's a beast and willed them into the playoffs. I respect the hell out of his loyalty to his team, but he deserves better (us)
I feel a bit bad for McCullum too. Fractured back is gnarly! They proved their point and got here plus took a game off us before the wheels fell off. They should be proud of that. Honestly I would rest McCullum too at this point rather than risk further injury. They already learned this year how tough it is with injuries. They should shut it down because next season is not far off! McCullum needs to get healthy as does Dame and Collins. It’s over for this season. They were warriors and did what they could but they have zero chance of winning this series at this point. Lakers broke them. Be smart and throw in the towel.
i agree, but the only way they'll even make it close without lillard is if mccollum goes for 50+ and nurkic or melo absolutely balls out i hope they can get a big enough lead to rest AD and lebron but i have a feeling it'll be a closer game than we think
They might explore rebuilding around Lillard. Which means they'd keep Jusuf and make everyone else available, including McCollum. So, you know...
Dame's injury is the result of being run ragged to make the play-offs, just like the disastrous Kobe Achilles jnjury
Probably so. That's why I think they should sit McCullum. Why is he playing with a fractured back down 3 to 1 with no Dame? That seems like asking for trouble.
I agree. They really need to sit McCollum. The guy can ruin his life playing like this. I am not even sure how he’s doing it. Allow us to play our stars in the 1st quarter, get that lead up, then we can rest them as well. Everyone benefits, since they can’t win this anymore. It’s not like 20.000 people paid good money for the tickets this time to see the stars. Also, free Dion.
Omg.... whoever’s idea was to do this stupid protesting is the reason why the NBA’s ratings are plummeting... Do your vocal protest, denounce whatever you think needs to be denounced, and go do your job... Jesus Christ...
The players are using economic power to affect change. I support what they're doing 100%. And if you want someone to blame, blame those cops that shot a man in the back 7 times, and the thousands of other times that things like this have happened. Blame the fact that systemic racism and systemic inequality have never been addressed or fixed. That's who to blame, not the athlete who speaks out against injustice. I support them 100% and I'm proud that more athletes have found their voice when they don't have to say anything at all. They could do as you wish and stay silent but speaking out takes courage.
Proud of the Bucks. And Dwight too for also pushing for this. It is just entertainment, and a unified voice can be powerful.
"why can't people protest peacefully?!" :athletes protest peacefully by taking a knee or boycotting a game: "no! not like that!"
. I specifically structured my day to watch this game... and it gets ruined... why? Because the NBA has decided for some insane reason, to dive deep into this stupid woke movement that is cringeworthy and annoying... What have they accomplished by walking off the court and boycotting? Nothing... this will change nothing. Nothing from this will do anything, I gurantee it. They wanna make an actual difference? Apply... Apply in mass and become cops and show them how it's done.. Cause its obvious they're tired of whats going on, so the only way to change it is to get in there and change it. Not complain.
you do realize he had a knife? And you do realize he was walking back to the car saying he was going to get a gun? The shoot was a justified shoot. No one is going to be prosecuted, or be successfully prosecuted, just wanted you to know... The same is probably going to happen to the George Floyd case...
