"unstoppable PNR spam", "will average 30 in better efficiency", "overlooked in Portland, when his actually the same level as Steph in a contender","best duo".

Someone page u/irelli to defend his significant other's stinker. Probably it was because of the planets and stars aligning wrong on this day of the month that led to this ignomy.

[–] MrTape@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

he's clearly not the same player. got the feels of okc melo

[–] NAACP_YoungBoy@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Jrue Holiday betta

[–] JustBlazee@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Are you guys going to do this after every poor Damian Lillard performance? They won the game, chill.

[–] Krillin113@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

He’s also just straight up not a winning player anymore

[–] Salman1969@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

He never was a good defensive player. He only can produce one way.

[–] Stallion049@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

/u/irelli told me at the beginning of the season that Dame had surpassed Curry

[–] ImTheBestNerd@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (3 children)

Yea Bucks lost the Grayson Allen trade

[–] Bitterblossom_@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Feel like pure shit just want Jrue Holiday back x

[–] Admirable-Squash9607@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

No take backs. Sorry 😉

[–] Puzzleheaded_Fox4684@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

And I lost my fantasy draft

[–] Ace12773@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

And somehow we ended up with the best player in all of this

Obviously coming back from injury is going to have a factor, but Bulls team defense against PGs is good this season. Torrey Craig & PWill can/are annoying help defenders, Coby isn’t crazy on defense but high energy which is annoying, but Jevon Carter/Ayo/Caruso (didn’t play today) really harass ball handlers

Only notable PG that handled the Bulls was Shai. They’ve made other notable PGs in Tyrese, Cade, and Luka look human

[–] likpoper@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I think everyone need to chill on dame. We all know he will light things up.. just a matter of when

Bro obliterated my fantasy team's FG%

[–] agk927@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Rough game, but he's been good this year so it's okay

[–] BetweenCoffeeNSleep@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

He’s in a new city, going through a divorce, sat two games due to calf problems and shot short but on line in this one - looks like a lift issue with the jumper.

Going to take some time.

[–] Level_Ad_6372@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

At least you know he's going to give you some great defense

[–] StudentLoanSlave1@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

He must feel so good being able to still win a game after having an off night. You deserve dude. He used to be like required to put up 30 just for the blazers to have a chance.

[–] socialistbcrumb@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (3 children)

He’s just straight up having a really rough start to the season and the bucks are still 6-4, big change for him lol

[–] dutchfromsubway@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

He also didn’t play in the summer and is coming off an injury, honestly just give him a month or 2

[–] Tiiiimmmooo@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

You should look up the blazers record to start last year before making comments like this

[–] AbbreviationsHot4482@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Fr the Bucks are 6-2 in games both Dame and Giannis play

[–] Disastrous-Yak-1890@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Isn’t he in the middle of a divorce? Probably tons of family issues as well. Dame looks mad stressed out right now. Chill on the hate. He’ll get your basketball points ffs

[–] theSchagger@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago
[–] AtreusIsBack@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Lethal.

To his own team.

[–] GuestBadge@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

He's in a very bad slump, it will take him a lot to get back his form.

[–] BoshasaurusChris@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Why is he playing so bad? It looks like the chemistry just isn't there, did he even practice with the team before the season or was he busy making that song about leaving portland? Does he realise these games are played on the court not on paper?

[–] ph1sh55@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

One aspect not to be overlooked- their rookie HC decided he knew better than Terry Stotts on how to run the offense to maximize Dame's value.

Same rookie HC decided to change the whole defensive scheme that had been elite under Bud, for reasons.

[–] Historical_Check3306@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

… and we won

[–] bandwagonguy83@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Jrue left for this.

[–] dar_harhar@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Miami is still on his mind.

[–] KnickedUp@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago
[–] dimechimes@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I hope he dreams about how good he had it in Portland

[–] tooobluuu@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Lot of dick eating still going on i see

[–] eskayzie@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

One of the dumbest trades ever and I'll die on that hill before and after they played games. Let's blow up a successful championship roster that's nowhere over the hill yet and get rid of by far the 2nd most important player on the team so we can pick up a viral marketing empty stat player who doesn't win and is rarely ever efficient and is consistently bottom 50 out of 500 NBA players in all defensive metrics. Bucks deserve to lay in their own shit for this one.

[–] OberynRedViper8@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Damn dawg, damn.

[–] titans661@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Miam, this is a Wendy’s

[–] yourlilpissboi@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Is this a mental thing? Like he’s in a situation thats good for him but not his ideal choice and is upset he didn’t go to Miami?

[–] KnickedUp@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Dames vibes are off. CST aint for him

[–] thegoldenboy444@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Yeah but did you see that defense though??

[–] TacoEspionage@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Has Dame been good outside of his first game? Has his offense outweighed his bad defense?

[–] Happy295@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Does he have his abdomen issues flaring up again?

[–] torthBrain@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Maxey better, sadly

[–] workaholic828@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

He didn’t come there to waste his time!
