From an MVP perspective, Giannis picked the wrong decade to be insanely dominant.

lmao the government is in the Atlantic and Caribbean literally bombing boats and murdering people under the guise that they’re “bringing drugs to the US” but someone actually convicted of trafficking drugs gets a pardon?
Bleak!

President Trump said he will pardon former Honduran president Juan Orlando Hernández, who was convicted in a U.S. court of trafficking drugs to the U.S., and threw his support behind a conservative Honduran presidential candidate.

Players should not have the incentive to grift so blatantly. The system is the problem here.
A defender — any defender — closing out on a three point shot *who lands insides the arc* shouldn’t hit the leg of the shooter unless the shooter is swinging the leg out. It’s blatant.

Number 9 is cruel.
A lot has happened in the NBA over the past 25 years.
So our writers ranked the most significant moments of the 2000s.
Do you agree with our list?

If Kyle Kuzma can focus his game on:
-spot-up corner 3s
-cutting into space
-1-dribble drives
-running in transition
-moving the ball
-defending like he wants to make an All-Defensive team
He can be a quality forward on this Bucks team. You can live with the inconsistency if he’s doing THAT job.

I understand moving Gary Trent Jr. to the bench.
I recognize that kyle kuzma has played very well in a limited role.
I acknowledge that the Bucks need something at the SF position.
…buuuuuuuuuuuuuuut…

A significant change to the Bucks' starting 5, with Kyle Kuzma in for Gary Trent Jr.
Here’s how Doc Rivers is starting against the Hornets:
G – Ryan Rollins (#13)
G – AJ Green (#20)
F – Kyle Kuzma (#18)
F – Giannis Antetokounmpo (#34)
C – Myles Turner (#3)

Just 7 games into the season Bucks head coach Doc Rivers is already losing patience with referees over the way Giannis Antetokounmpo is (or frankly, isn't) being officiated.
Antetokounmpo has been fouled flagrantly 2x so far, with more uncalled hard fouls. #NBASky
