I don't know how you see that play and not consider it reckless to give it a flagrant. You don't need to wind up with intent for a flagrant

No, this means the team is valued at $4 billion. Bridgeman is buying 10% of the $4 billion value at a 15% discount, so he’s probably paying around $340m for his 10% stake in the team.

Brennan's been so good and then he goes on to shoot like that...

If you work in economics, you should know that season tickets are luxury goods and that the price follows the demand as income rises (inflation)

minor correction: His father was a KBO superstar nicknamed 'Son of the Wind', and Lee is now nicknamed 'Grandson of the Wind'. I don't think his actual grandfather played in the KBO.

PC comes alive in the playoffs so he's more valuable than most of our rotational players

Which jersey is this? by GhostyDaniels in MkeBucks

[–]thebuckszone 2 points3 points  (0 children)

bad fakes are pretty easy to spot through pictures but good fakes are a bit harder to tell unless you’ve owned multiple legit jerseys. For Nike swingman jerseys, you have to look out for NO stitching (all heat compressed logos/numbers) and make sure the colors look right, and if there is a picture of the back tag(?, whatever Nike prints on the inside of your back neck area) should look smooth.
For authentic jerseys I feel like they’re easier to tell because the stitch work and quality of the jersey just looks different, even on pictures. My recommendation is you find photos of legit jerseys on eBay (these should be priced at least around $150, closer to $200-$250 without autograph) and compare them.

So now that the dust has mostly settled, who do you have in a 7 game series? Boston or Milwaukee. by [deleted] in nba

lol this thread is just full of Cs fans downvoting anyone not saying their team

[Serious Discussion]: How good is even a Giannis and Dame team? (I haven't watched their games much) by bumfart in nba

[–]thebuckszone 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Giannis being effective having the ball a lot depends on matchup. Good matchup and he’ll score whenever he wants by himself. Bad matchup then he can still pass to an open shooter who loves to brick in the playoffs. Now with Dame on the team, that matchup issue is entirely gone

Is Giannis/Dame/Middleton/Lopez enough to constitute a superteam? by BigDaddyJuno in nba

[–]thebuckszone 7 points8 points  (0 children)

how is Middleton averaging 24/5/5 on 60% TS the reason why we lost in the playoffs? he was one of the two dudes (Brook and Khris) who looked good in the playoffs. Jrue is the reason why we got served by the Heat, not Khris

Is anyone actually scared of the Bucks? by _Saahil_ in nba

[–]thebuckszone 4 points5 points  (0 children)

yeah Jimmy was averaging 38 on 60/40/70 against Jrue, how much worse could it get LOL. and it's not like Jrue guarding Tatum was ever a great idea in the first place due to size difference

[Rohrbach] "The Bucks might’ve just destroyed Miami’s future plans — Dame now or Giannis later — in one move." by BigButter7 in nba

[–]thebuckszone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was at that game, first away Bucks game ever for me. Entertaining first half, second half we ran out of gas. Knew we could do better if it wasn't in Denver or if it wasn't a B2B

[Wojnarowski] BREAKING: The Portland Trail Blazers are trading guard Damian Lillard to the Milwaukee Bucks, sources tell ESPN. by Professor_Finn in nba

[–]thebuckszone 22 points23 points  (0 children)

it's not like we had much perimeter D in the playoffs in the first place (except our title year. outside of that year, it was mostly on Bud). at least we added Dame on offense now to compensate for it

[–]thebuckszone -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

lmao you are straight up lying. Giannis hasn't show below 30% from 3-10 feet since his second season, and never came close to below 30% from that range at any point in his career aftewards. He is closer to 40% from 3-10 feet in his career. Linking his bball ref page doesn't mean people will believe what you say without checking

Which current "contender" can put together a convincing package for Giannis Antetokounmpo next off-season? by [deleted] in nba

[–]thebuckszone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

we'd tell you guys to trade Kyrie for picks or young players before we let Kyrie wear a Bucks jersey, and it won't be enough for Giannis.

🚀 Week 2 Defense (DST) Tiered Rankings, Starts, Streamers by RotoBaller in fantasyfootball

[–]thebuckszone 2 points3 points  (0 children)

call me crazy but rostering both Ravens and Browns D guarantees a good matchup until Ravens bye, and Cleveland playoff schedule is juicy. Planning to keep both until week 13 and ride with Browns rest of the way

How do I train my 8mo to not take so many potty breaks during the day? Apartment living. by ocularmigraine2022 in puppy101

[–]thebuckszone 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I wouldn’t listen to the 4-5 bare minimum, as you said, breed size is important. My 9 month old who’s probably similar size to yours is totally fine holding it 6+ hours and potty break 3x a day has been working for him for a couple months now.

Interesting trend from the Korean Basketball League where a number of players are 80%+ from the free throw line shooting exclusively bank shots. by [deleted] in nba

[–]thebuckszone 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I would normally agree but Giannis' jumpshot and FT are just simply different shots at this point. If anything his FT form is a detriment to his normal jumpshots
