Luka/Jimmy split screen av?

 

[tigs2010]

YIMMYYYY!!

 

[Supersuns]

Jimmy G Buckets putting the heat on his back wowee

 

[kozi]

Now that's how you block a shot

 

[Westy Bogan]

Jimmy is just built for play offs.... He just loves the half court and can always draw the foul....

 

[Westy Bogan]

By the way.... Bucks must be crying watching Tucker play for Miami....

They should have paid him... huge mistake... probably cost them a title

 

[Slysh]

Let’s not underestimate that Spo and Jimmy has the Heat up 1-0 in the conference finals with Vincent and Strus starting for them…

Imagine hearing that at the start of the year… Insane by both of them

Imagine getting stingy as a small market team who has the best player in the world and coming off a title…

76ers front office must hate watching this. Butlers a playoffs beast

 

[JennyTaylor]

Bucks owners are such tossers

Players are allowed to have poor series, his year at Philly, first at Miami and this play offs show how good he is in the post season

Not really, Tucker is nice but he would have cost a lot of money to keep.

If the Bucks play the Celtics minus Horford & Smart, we'd be playing Miami right now. So let's see how the whole series goes when Celtics are healthier.

 

[Supersuns]

Heat in 5

They aren't though, are they. Without them we'd be in Seattle right now.

The luxury tax to bring back a 37 year old PJ Tucker was pretty big. If they decided to keep him that's nice but we are not beating the Celtics with PJ Tucker and no Middleton. We needed Middleton, not PJ Tucker.

You have Giannis in his prime. Why would you not pay the money?

Tucker is a bit overrated but he was an important piece.

You are spending the money on hill. Allen. Etc. Anyway.

Bucks didn't go into luxury tax untill after winning the championships via jrues bonuses iirc

The bucks had a very good chance of beating Boston if they had tucker.

It went to 7 without him

The Bucks are already deep in the luxury tax. We're paying the 3rd highest behind the Clippers & GSW. For a small market team, that is insane.

Now add PJ Tucker on top of that and we're number 1 in the tax.

I disagree, I know what PJ Tucker can do and it wouldn't have been enough to overturn losing Middleton. The truth of the matter is we were already quite fortunate to push that series to 7 games. Bucks don't win with Tucker alone.

Fair enough.

When you see grant Williams shoot 20 open corner 3s and the bucks are short s defender it's hard to not think tucker would have been helpful.

More so when he wanted to stay.

Would be impressive if he wins two rings in 2 season

 

[Memphis]

Hurt not having Smart or Al that 22-2 run wouldn't have happened if they were around.

Need to steal G2 from them.
