He’s played 7 games so far. Some of you were complaining about how he hurt the team last year for crying out loud. That take still looks bad. Give him time. I have family in Wisconsin and I’ve been told the fanbase loves him. He’ll be fine.

He was because the staff was using him the wrong way, it was 5 on 4 for us on offense once teams figured out how to play us and before coach made the switch.

He can’t be on the floor without 4 scorers at this point. If he is, he’s probably a net positive. If not, he’s going to make things hard for them. Bucks will find ways to use him.

So what? Why didn't one of the 5 other guys who came off the bench in the DNP games get the start? You mansplainers are so boring.

You don’t get to be confused when Andre goes back to the bench.

Of course he's starting because of injury. I don't need you knuckleheads to tell me that. My point was they could have given that start to any of the guys on the bench but they gave it to Andre, and I'm looking it as a positive. A reward for his work to date. You guys can go pee on someone else's corn flakes.

I have mansplained a thing or two in my time, for sure. Consider I was posting not just for your benefit, but for those who may not follow as closely. Just because I replied to you does not mean you're the entire audience of the post.

My favorite part is when you complained about mansplaining you also asked a question that's literally already been answered in the man'splaining

And yes, this response is mainsplaining how forums work to you.

I agree with this.

Everyone loves the guys whose contributions don't show up in the box score, but there's a limit there -- at some point it's gotta translate to things you can count (points, assists, boards, steals, blocks, defensive things in the advanced metrics).

Even a low-scoring glue guy like Draymond Green fills it up in other ways.

How about counting Wins.

What was that again? I wasn't paying attention.

You guys are missing the point. If he had a shot likes Hawk’s, which is an unreasonable comparison, what do you think his ceiling would be? How about a shot like Josh Hart?

He’d be on track for the Hall of Fame if he had Hawks shot

I don't recall him ever trying a stepback 3, let alone making it.

Nope. We all saw the step back AND sidestep in its infancy coming last year. He’s Curry.

I have nightmares of that shot...he made one against Creighton? and missed the next five or so. You could tell he was working on it, but it wasn't ready last year and he would have been probably 32-34 percent from three without it.

He made a couple of them. I believe our first points of the NCAA tournament last year were on an Andre stepback 3.

Andre still showing how much he can impact the game in ways that don't necessarily show up on the box score. I think his perimeter defense and rebounding is going to be huge for that Milwaukee team the closer we get to playoff time. He's going to keep making the game easier for the stars and scorers on that team
