MCW Bucks debut

[two3zone]

Started it off with a bang against his old team.

[Henny & Coke]

Good for MCW. I hope he embraces his role on this new team & really makes Philly regret trading him in the years to come.

Steal and a dunk

They are curb stomping the pathetic sixers. 49-24 2:30 to go in the 2nd.

so what D-league team will Ennis end up with?

He's already played 10 minutes and it's not even halftime.

You do realize that he was only in the d league because the Suns had 3 really good guards ahead of him right?

Sour grapes?

MCW looks really, really good with actual NBA players.

Jerami Grant might be the best player on the 76ers.

Ennis looks ok as a backup pg. You would have to be a beast to not get lost, as a rookie, in the shuffle of what was Phoenix's backcourt before the trade deadline.

This game needs a mercy rule.

and after getting rid of two of them (Dragic and Thomas) they still decided to part ways with Ennis. He won't get a 2nd contract just like Donte.

They also brought in a pg.

Nostradamus, huh?

 

[Cheriehoop]

Yikes for Philly, ESPN says that Jerami Grant is their top performer at half-time with 5 points, 2 rebounds , 2 steals, 1 block and 3 TO's after 13 minutes.

How many NBA games have you watched him play?

Donte had an injury at the wrong time, that didn't help.

Exactly. Think the nets were going to sign him to a 2 year deal or something then the injury happened.

 

[two3zone]

Sixers actually cut the lead down to 16.

 

[two3zone]

8 assists, 1 turnover, 7 points in 17 minutes for MCW.

 

[Melancer46]

I am so excited about the future with Giannis, Jabari, MCW, and Middleton.

 

[SWFLCUSE]

7 pts, 8 asts, and 2 stls for MCW in 18 minutes of action.
9 pts 2 asts, and 2 stls for Ennis in 24 minutes of action.
10 pts, 2 rebs, 4 asts, 2 stls, and 2 blocks for Grant in 33 minutes of action.
Overall it was a very solid night for the Orange in this game.

Well if the owner of the 76ers is smart he will trade him shortly and get more draft picks.

You can never have enough future good players because they cost you nothing compared to having actual good players on the team.

The defense out there with MCW-Giannis-Middleton was sick at times. I know it's the 76ers but a couple times it looked like a spider web out there.

Imagine that zone

Imagine that zone

Middleton is their 2g. MCW and Middleton up top haha, that's just stupid to think about.

Someone posted a graphic of the projected starting lineup next year with their heights and wingspans... I can't find it now, but I think it was something along the lines of:

PG: MCW - 6'6" - 6'7" wingspan
SG: Middleton - 6'8" - 6'11" wingspan
SF: Jabari - 6'9" - 6'11" wingspan
PF: Giannis - 6'11" (maybe 7'0") - 7'4" wingspan
C: Henson - 6'11" - 7'5" wingspan

That is just absolutely insane. And Henson and Giannis are both very good shot blockers, while Giannis, Middleton, MCW, and even Jabari are all pretty good at jumping passing lanes and stripping the ball-handler. The Bucks should be a top 5 defense every year basically for the next decade.

Wait you mean they are making trades and draft picks to get and actually keep good young players? It seems counter intuitive as there is now no way they will win the coveted best stock pile of future draft pick awards.
