Sit everyone. Let all the bench guys get some work. No need to have anyone get a twisted ankle for nothing. Maybe let the schedule makers know this was a bs back to back.

You guys are a bunch of quitters.

Fair weather fan losers.


Just kidding, I'm finishing the 3rd season of Slow Horses if something doesn't change dramatically in the first 5 minutes of the third.

Is the Port Cellar going to start taking the Bucks seriously or no?
I've always taken them seriously. But their playoff issues are well documented, and the Bucks have given up 120 per game this season. This is before those long playoff series where teams will absolutely pick apart Lillard's defense by putting him on an island against bigger players.

Shaq talking about how he knew Milwaukee would get up for this game and whoop Boston. Chuck mentions that the Celtics went to OT with the Wolves last night and Shaq disgustedly goes "Come on, Chuck."

Why are they pretending this is a normal matchup? Whatever, I know they're not going to throw the NBA under the bus but give me a break.

I wonder if there weren't these stupid fines (not that the money matters that much, just NBA in general this year trying to force things) they would have sat more people from the outset.

No, Shaq is totally right. The Bucks are 37 points (per half) better than the Celtics.

Jrue and White have looked like they need a little extended rest for a few games now. Don’t hate Tatum sitting on B2Bs either. I’m confident they’d have a skeleton crew out there if they were in Charlotte or Detroit.

Like how Griffin isn't resting any of his starters... just keep playing them.. hopefully Giannis tears a groin because you decided to not sit any players up 40

One may have something to do with the other. But I guess we can’t altogether rule out random variance. ;)
I didn't see highlights of the Bucks intentionally laying down on the court against the Jazz when giving up 133 points a few nights ago at home, so my guess is tonight was fairly random.
