Welcome to the Brew Hoop Night Shift. Every evening at 9:00pm (central time), this all-purpose thread goes up, and the comments section is where it’s going down. What Bucks news did we not cover? What topics do you want to break down further? Or is there something non-Bucks that you want to bounce off of one another? Even something non-basketball? This is the place.
Today’s (on)topic:

Did they get it right?!
Yes, I believe they did.
Today’s (off)topic: the jukebox.
A lot of bars have gone away from the big, honking jukeboxes that had the physical catalogs you could flip through in favor of the “Touch Tunes” brand jukebox that lets anyone play any song they desire. The problem with Touch Tunes is that when you sign up on the app, you get enough credits to have your song choice play next automatically. I recently had a double whammy of Bruce Springsteen queued up (Glory Days then Born to Run) only to be pushed back as more and more people signed up and had their bad music skip over The Boss. Any jukebox nightmare stories out there? Do we miss the physical catalogs?
As a general rule, non-basketball topics are permitted in an open thread, provided that they follow the SB Nation Community Guidelines.
