gave it a shot with a snipe, got outbid

KhalDrogo · 03-21-2021, 10:51 PM

I was the underbidder on the Level IV. Surprised how low it went. Would have gone more but have way too much on the radar right now.

No.. the Bucks almost for sure have to win the East AND some teams in the West can't finish too high. Unless more injuries happened to the other front runners.

I feel like this 4 game home stand is a window the bucks need to capitalize on to make a run at the East.

-Kyrie is out the next 3 games vs Portland and Utah
-76ers go on a Western road trip without Embiid.

Things go right, they could very much control their own destiny down the stretch

And Giannis out for tonight’s game with a sprained knee. Happened in 1st quarter of SA game and he finished it. Hopefully not out too long...

He was warming up before the game on FSWI broadcast. Fingers crossed it’ll be short term.

Hope so....

team seems to be taking care of business so far.

Hopefully just a precaution to get ready for games Wednesday, Friday and Saturday. Would rather have him for both of the Celtics games.

He’s been very active on sidelines and bench area during clock stoppages/TOs. Definitely not “injured” by any means, so probably just precautionary.

Seems like a calculated risk, then.

Indiana without Turner, Brogdon, or Warren isn't a very tough challenge.

The Bucks are just on fire this game. Would still probably be a 15 point game at half with those guys. The did have a cold streak for a bit and pacers made a small run but they got their sh** together pretty quick when Jrue came back in the game.

He was messing/moving around on the bench/sidelines the whole game. I am sure it was a precautionary thing being that he did not get any rest really being in the all-star game and having not sat out any games for rest yet this season. Big western road trip coming up too after this short home stand.

Confused with this? Possible to get a game-worn Giannis swatch from his rookie year from Fanatics for only $50? Is this a scam or ?

It's a huge addition.

The Bucks did nothing yesterday.

Sorry to disappoint you...

Mid range jumper working, FT shooting getting better. Very quiet 47 pts. tonight against Portland.

Monster game... His shots were going down and the Blazers had nobody that could slow him down near the basket.

Missed the game... he went 18 for 18 for 2???

cardfund · 04-03-2021, 06:49 AM

He keeps getting better, finding it easier to score. I just hope the Bucks can actually turn up in playoffs.

Yes, and 9 for 11 from FT line! He played much more under control of himself in the paint last night than he normally does and it paid off. Hopefully he does this more going forward, because him being TOO aggressive (and trying to be too flashy about a layup) going to the basket and missing bunnies has been my biggest complaint about his game for a long time. He usually misses 3-4 shots he should make at about an 80+% clip per game. That adds up fast...

matt roberson · 04-03-2021, 11:14 AM

Better start buying because if he flashes his new found shooting ability in the playoffs the masses may change their views on his future outlook.

I’ve been a believer for years, he may never shoot like steph but he has been gaining confidence and his shoot looks a million times better since the start of last season. He is almost at that point where they will have to guard him at the arc which willnn no open up Pandora’s box for them.

He needs to stay under control and keep the fouls down so they can’t take him out of his game going forward.

He's actually shooting worse from 10+ feet and from three this year compared to last.

I still don't understand why he shoots jumpers and threes. His effective FG percentage from three is .453 vs .693 within 10 feet of the basket. So he gives up 0.372 points per shot every time he decides to take a three instead of a shot within 10 feet of the basket.

Couple cards I'm looking at PWCC.

How much does this /25 Red Portrait RC BGS 9 go for?

I see the /100 Rated Rookie RPA was relisted and is already more than it 'sold' for last month. Where does that end?

The /99 Franchise graph auto?

And a /15 Signatures RC portrait? Nice card.

KhalDrogo · 04-19-2021, 11:14 AM

Damn. Over two weeks since the last post.

There’s some attractive prices out there, but not sure how I feel about jumping in when the Bucks are so much weaker than the Sixers and Nets.
