I’m panicked over your response

It’s preseason. We have a guy who hasn’t played in ten months trying to simultaneously get in shape and figure out his way in an offense with two other ball dominant guys.
I don’t really care much about the turnovers. When they don’t turn it over, they’re getting great shots and they’ll cut down on them as they get some time. Too early to care about that. Defense suffers because of it too.
It’ll be fine. Relax.

Hence the qualifier.
The problem isnt looking bad or losing.
It’s how they are doing. Everyone’s doubts about this team being highlighted. Complete disinterest. Loafing. No movement whatsoever. Missing every shot. Horrid turnovers. BIs Team USA nightmare lingering.
Things we’ve seen from this team when they suck.
Again…the hope is it’s just preseason and none of this matters.

How is that overdramatic?
It’s completely true for the last two games.
The Twitter vids coming out of both games have been yikesville.
If anything, I’m being tempered and even handed for Pels Twitter.
They looked awesome in Game 1, and then we never saw any of that in game 2 or 3

Because it’s game three of preseason. It’s a league where people openly acknowledge that teams don’t try until the 4th quarter (if at all) during the regular season.
If they look this bad in 3-4 weeks, I’ll be as concerned as you presently are.

With current roster, ball-dominate PG doesn't fit. Get rid of BI and/or Zion...& then...MAYBE

You really think they can just turn it on and off?

Yes, I think they’ll be fine down the line.

This is not completely accurate. Winless preseason teams have historically bad regular season records with Bucks in 2022 being an exception. The hope is they win one.
This is just plain idiotic. A win or loss in the preseason is absolutely meaningless. Looking better would be nice; whether it results in a meaningless win is irrelevant.

Small and Unrepresentative Sample Size Theater. I also think it's really hard to separate the impact of out of shape Zion. How many problems would him being in mid season form solve? That's a question we need an answer to so we can see if BI is a problem.
Remember last December? The Pels were 4th in Turnovers for December, in the good way. Why? Because the offense was being run by Zion and Jose for the most part. The Pels were 14th in Feb-April during the stretch where BI was playing well. If we find out we can't run our offense through BI AND he won't adapt to play 2nd fiddle to Zion, it probably should look bad so we can make some moves.

Trey is also a big impact on this team. Jose for second unit is the energy we need, too.

bunchie, no your not
The same people would tell you the preseason doesnt matter if they were playing well. Dont let Shamit, the most reactive dude on twitter rile you up
Posted on 10/14/23 at 7:56 pm to Lester Earl
Ha I’m not riled up. Just fricking around on here.

Its not historically if you go winless. You can say its idiotic but doesn’t make your point more true. Before you just pull something out of your arse and say it’s idiotic actually look shite up. Going winless in the preseason historically means you have a shittier regular season record. Doesn’t mean you always do but more often than not you do.

without Trey there isn’t near enough shooting on this roster.
If Zion is healthy and hustling he alone moves this team out of the lottery, and maybe they can add the shooting mid season.

CJ was shooting well until tonight. Hawkins, Kira and Dyson also have shot well. Shooting surprisingly isn’t one of the concerns.

I don’t know, man. You’re pretty dramatic. I always give it a few regular season games before I freak out
