Keep grinding. The defense isn't that bad, they are hitting everything. Don't falter.

Agree 100%...Hopefully Doug can highlight it and they address it in the 2nd half. Old habits die hard sometimes

It's unfortunate because he has the athleticism and sometimes even moves to do so ... He's just so hesitant - Ball may swing to him as his guy is recovering and instead of attacking a closeout aggressively and beating his man, he dribbles sideways or hesitates for 2 seconds to then pass it or THEN make a move. Basketball 101 - If you get the ball and your defender is off balanced attack immediately. He rarely does that. I wonder what coaching staff is emphasizing with him offensively right now.

-19 in Q1 to break even Q2. I’m not a mathemagistian but I’m pretty sure this means we’re winning by 40

Probably the most disheartening thing this season is Murray's development. Or maybe "consistency" is what he is missing.
Maybe it was on us to expect him to make another big leap like his sophomore season.

I’m in Seattle…. Unfortunately, in the world of taxes, we are highly highly specialized. I can only help you in a very small sliver of what you couldpossibly need. We need to move to a simplified tax code. unfortunately that might put me out of a job. I just need to make it to retirement before that happens.

Going down by 28 points after 14 minutes of play in Milwaukee against Bucks it's not unexpected, but to expect something after - even I give up. Especially with no Monk.

I mean, look at even our own board, you can see delusion everywhere.

Lol, really. Keep drafting for that player and keep getting disappointed.

2nd quarter was much improved but you simply can’t have stretches like we did in the first quarter. I’m not saying we need to go 82-0 but it would be nice to not have always be down 20+ at some point in each of our losses…

Does it feel like not having Monk for a game at this point, is more detrimental than not having Fox? I kinda felt that coming into this game

No, the defense is the issue. Monk's energy has been great but Monk as been a volume scorer if anything.

Stop giving Huerter minutes, please. The guy sucks. You want guys out there that does more than just shooting. He came in...what did he do? Tip a ball out of bound after the opponent missed, failed to at least strip the ball from Giannis after he got the rebound under the basket (because he's freaking soft), failed to do a layup, allow penetration. C'mon man...i rather have Carter getting the bulk of minutes than having Huerter out there. He doesn't do shyt.

It was the only glaring thing I saw. Devin and Keon need to be eating all those minutes even if they can't hit the broad side of a barn. For a coach that's tough considering they're young, but it is what it is.

Youll have to check for this thread. I got a big trouble from Rob for the house money reference….. It’s all good fun.

"Big Trouble", relatively speaking.
It's like when they blurp out sh*t like, "Keegan is useless
" or "we can only truly compete by trading Fox 
". It's not grounded in reality, it's just message board hyperbole.

It's been like this since the Playoffs. Monte failed to get any big lengthy guy to at least bother the other teams. We have gone through this before. Trey Lyle ain't lengthy enough. We have Keegan that's about it. Sabonis need help when we play those tall dudes.
By the way, why is Sabonis guarding Giannis, shouldn't it be Keegan? Bad strategy imo.
I've been told every cellar dwellar has this player rotting away on their bench and all it takes is Huerter and multiple FRPs.
