In their defense, nobody can stop Giannis one-on-one from getting to the hoop. We need to build a wall and let others beat us. I watched the beginning of the game from the Bucks broadcast (going to finish today) and Lopez shot 4 three pointers in the first 3 minutes of the game. The very first one went in-and-out. Talk about the butterfly effect had it gone...Nodack wrote: ↑Sat Nov 24, 2018 1:50 amI can’t believe the Suns won. The refs seemed like they didn’t want them to win. The Suns couldn’t hit a shot in the last half of the fourth quarter. Giannis doesn’t shoot ANY shot less than 6 inches from the basket and they just let him score at will. The same move over and over, drive left and then spin right.
They are improving. Their turnovers have improved. Their defense is starting to resenble defense. They keep scoring 60 in the first half. PG Booker is looking better but, did run out of gas. Lopez refused to stop shooting threes even though he couldn’t hit the ocean sitting in the row boat. Thank you Lopez!
Technically, it was '68 before the '68-'69 season.TheOriginalOriginal wrote: ↑Sat Nov 24, 2018 1:58 amNice.Democritus wrote: ↑Sat Nov 24, 2018 1:46 amBesides that, I dream of an NBA Final between the Suns and the Bucks in the near future. Suns win and revenge for that coin flip back in 69.
Nope. The 68-69 season was the inaugural season for both Bucks and the Suns, and both finished in the basement.Superbone wrote: ↑Sat Nov 24, 2018 12:12 pmTechnically, it was '68 before the '68-'69 season.TheOriginalOriginal wrote: ↑Sat Nov 24, 2018 1:58 amNice.Democritus wrote: ↑Sat Nov 24, 2018 1:46 amBesides that, I dream of an NBA Final between the Suns and the Bucks in the near future.

Aha! My bad. A little before my time as an NBA fan.LazarusLong wrote: ↑Sat Nov 24, 2018 1:01 pmNope.

The coin flip for the right to draft first (for Abdul-Jabbar née Alcindor) was March 19, 1969.
I’ve griped a bit about the overpriced over-the-hill players we got who were supposed to provide “veteran leadership,” but I think that in Crawford we finally have an over-the-hill player who actually does provide some leadership.
