What would be better: if I presented myself in this description as a supremely salty Bucks fan who is angry at, in order: Emmanuel “Curry” Mudiay, the refs, Kevin Knox, and Mario Hezonja and wants everyone to know about how the Bucks should’ve won. Or, as a composed, reasonable fan who pretends to not let anything ever effect him emotionally, and certainly not losses by his basketball team. Both positions are lies. Right now I’m somewhere in the middle.
I’m not going to pretend I don’t want to punch Kevin Knox’s stupid face for making way too many shots. I definitely want to do that, and I want to punch Emmanuel Mudiay as well. But at the same time, you know, it’s just a game, man. So, like, can’t we all just chill?
And the highlight maker in me is really hyped that Knox finally had a game he can hang his hat on, silencing the recently-emerging haters and criticizers. It took him a while to get going tonight; he was shooting a lot of shots and not a lot of them were going in. But when you can start to hit a few threes, that’s when your point total can really start to inflate.
It really would’ve been better for him to do this against a team that wasn’t the Bucks. Then again, maybe it was the fact that it was the Bucks that allowed this to happen. If that’s the case, you’re welcome.
