ESPN casually underestimating the importance of Giannis not playing for 2 games and playing injured this whole series, just like they didn't mention how Embiid basically destroyed Green's knee last year by flopping over it during their playoff series.
It's unfair and callous of the Bucks organization to fire him after he just lost his brother. That much is true. But he can not remain the coach after an epic failure like this, especially against the same team that embarrassed them 3 years ago.
he had it coming and the bucks deserve better anyway. I get that his brother died but hey, even us regular people are not allowed to be bad at our job even if something tragic happened to us.
✝️ God loves you and offers you forgiveness of your sins. Repent and believe in the gospel of Jesus Christ✝️
For I delivered to you first of all that which I also received: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, and that He was buried, and that He rose again the third day according to the Scriptures,
I Corinthians 15:3-4 NKJV ✝️.
I bet you all it will be Nurse that takes over the Bucks
Bucks were the 1 seed 3 times and never made the finals as the 1. That,not making adjustments, and the way they were booted out of the playoffs the last 2 years did him in.
They need Ty lie. He’s wasting away with the clippers dudes an amazing coach. Need stars he can rely on tho
Man Bud and wemby bout to take the pistons to the playoffs
We knew this was coming. Bucks wanted to get to the finals again after 2021 and that did not happen. Problem is who you gone get that is gone make this team work around Giannis to win another one? They should have fired him earlier and gotten Udoka. So they gone trade him for Nick Nurse? Like honestly I can't wait to see who they get.
Dude couldn’t make the simple adjustment of let Giannis guard Jimmy Butler. Not too surprising.
Nick Nurse
Does Bud get to keep his $16mil? If that's the case, that's a nice perks that we normal working stiffs never see. We may get a few weeks' severance if we're lucky, certainly not 2 YEARS of free pay without working. He'll probably get another job if he wants to, anyway–pro sports including the NBA recycle their coaches.
They need to move Middleton or Jrue
ESPN and Bucks fans in general forgot that Jimmy Haslem owns The Bucks. Ask Browns fans about him
I am call greg pop…
Craziest part of this is that if he was black this whole panel would’ve cried racism but he’s white and they’re like “it’s just the business” IT IS ALWAYS THE BUSINESS
Memphis should hire bud or nurse
Dude lost his bro and his job
Budz is probably one of the best regular season coaches we’ve seen, even when he was with Atlanta. But he’s come undone in 4 of 5 playoff runs.
Giannis might not think it was a failure but apparently the Bucks did
When they gon start holding these players accountable? The coach is on the sideline not on the floor.
Missing 13 free throws is unacceptable.
Go after Ty Lue 💯🔥
Called this after the recent collapse. Now Need a true #2.
Too bad Ime isn't on the markert no more
I thought after winning the finals they should have fired him. He makes no adjustments
I love how the don’t mention his brother died during the series smh
"When you got Giannis and that roster, you need to be in the Finals more than 1 time in last 5 years" That was the best take.
If Steve Kerr gets fired, coaches should protest.
Other teams are going to start to feel that luxury tax. 😂
He deserves to get fired
I appreciate Mike, but utter failure to not have 2-3 rings right now. His a bottom 10 coach in the league.
2 words. Nick Nurse
Jimmy Butler got that garbage azz White HC fired…lol
Nick nurse gotta be the front runner for bucks.
Race baiter sas
I mean the only reason he had a job is because giannis averaged 50 and won a ring he was gon a be fired before that lol
