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: Kyrie Irving... Out of Cleveland?

Oh. This is an interesting development, eh? Rumor has it that the San Antonio Spurs could swoop in and wrangle Irving to the Western Conference. Good thing the Cleveland Cavaliers are in talks with a former MVP as a contingency plan at PG. I would be happy to see Irving leave the East and the division. Another indirect off-season move where “addition by subtraction” applies to the Bucks’ standing in the East.
Today’s (off)topic: Rock, Paper, Scissors
Grammy award winning rapper and all-around nice boy, Chance the Rapper, claims to be nearly unbeatable at the hand game. He even goes so far as to challenge audience to matches after his shows. I don’t know how people can be so good at this game. I don’t even have a strategy or think about what I’ll throw and my lifetime winning percentage is probably hovering around .500. Maybe I should start putting some thought into it.
As a general rule, non-basketball topics are permitted in an open thread, provided that they follow the SB Nation Community Guidelines.
