Hate to say it but this actually might help. Green has been awful in the playoffs so far. 

Meek mill got through to him lol

Are you starting Kork or Thybulle? 

I say Thybulle because you need to see if it can work and pull it out vs the Nets for long stretches.

If it’s the Kork we saw last night, then Kork

I start Kork just for the spacing that Green provided. 

Harris isnt shooting a lot of 3s currently. The only real threat is Curry in the starting lineup if you dont have Kork out there. 

I guess you could think about starting George Hill too.

Same. It’ll help show if the thybulle is capable of giving you enough offensively as a starter cause green likely out til game 3-4 of that nets series at the earliest.

plus i think korkmaz is better utilized as a spark off the bench with his ability to score. I get being able to stretch which korkmaz and green gives you but thybulle in his last 5 is shooting 40 percent from three and 61%. So right now offensively he’s play well enough so let’s roll with it. 

I wouldn’t have guessed that about Durant or Booker with how they are playing right now. 

 

Bucks are 17-0 when playing games before 6pm this year.  Let's hope that streak continues.

You definitely start kork instead of thybulle. You have two guys capable of defending Young and both of them got to 5 fouls last game. Stagger them and keep them out of foul trouble.

Problem is lack of offense on 2nd team/bench.....and Young doesn't play 48 minutes so you don't need Thybulle on when Ben isn't because Young won't be on.  As a matter of fact, putting Thybulle and Ben on the court at the same time basically puts Young and even his passes in jail.......

Why do the sixers get 2 days between games and it looks like everyone else is getting 1?

To let Embid rest!  Shhhh!!  Although it does suck from a waiting/viewing perspective!

But they need to see is Thybulle lineup works because Kork in the starting lineup vs the Nets won't be pretty.

might have just gotten prettier......

Scott Foster is letting them play in this Bucks Nets series and did in Hawks Game 2. 

Everyone dislikes him but he allows physical play which is to Sixers advantage 

Nets now without Harden and Irving, sixers with Embiid hurting and Green out. The east might just come down to who is healthiest at the end.

That Kyrie one looks bad. Feels like he’s going to miss at least 3-4 weeks. Can thank Giannis for the Zaza type foul for eliminating the nets.

That was dirty.  I couldn't imagine if he did that to Embiid (ala Lebron).

If i were the nets I’d be pissed due to it not being ruled a foul. Like @DaEagles4Life said in the nba thread that rule was put in place cause of zaza doing it to kawhi. Was similar to what giannis did to Kyrie where player comes down awkwardly. Difference is i don’t think Giannis intentionally did it. The fact the officials didn’t call it a flagrant or a foul was pretty comical. I tend to agree with van gundy i think the nba looks at it and gives Giannis a flagrant. 

I think you could make a case Giannis meant no ill will on that. It might have been dumb to run in there. But it wasnt blatantly sticking his foot out like Bruce Bowen used to do to players.
