Bucks need to trade Kris for younger talent immediately
I'm shocked Malika hasn't brought up Josh Giddey since she's so quick to bash black men. SMH 💯
I said this last year. I said this yesterday. I am saying this today too. The Bucks should have re-signed Jrue Holiday and let Khris Middleton walk. He is an overpaid dude, inconsistent and now he can't even get on the floor.
Middleton isn't as useful as holiday imo
Im very sad to say that i don’t think i will see khris back at his level
Firing Coach Bud was a terrible move. They won't win a chip this year without a totally new coach from outside the well-established system.
Credit to Kendrick Perkins for always hating on Giannis by calling Khris Middleton the Batman and Giannis Robin. Just this summer, Kendrick Perkins insisted that the Bucks should re-sign Khris Middleton knowing that Middleton has injuries and the dude is not consistent. He's happy as long as his Boston Celtics Celtics beat the Bucks.
Need to trade Beasley and Connaughton for Bulls Alex Caruso. Plus firing Bud was right thing to do. Should’ve been fired after losing in bubble.
Malika doesn't talk about Josh Giddy, but rushes to talk about what a black man did wrong. I don't even think First Take talked about him. Come on ESPN.
This lady forgot to mention Giddey but kept being goofy as always lol.
Malika is just a puppet for the white owners of the league. NBA knows we don’t like her they don’t care
Honestly when I watch the Bucks play this year, they look slow. Offensively, and defensively just slow. Like a step behind where they should be. They still have a good record, because they beat some bad teams. But they even struggled beating those bad teams.
Bucks need defense and khris is a straight up liability.
Why do we need malikas basketball opinion?! Makes no sense.
I love Khris, but I think he reached his peak in that Championship run. Ever since then, he's been on the decline. I honestly think they should have traded Khris when he still had some value. Currently, with all of his reoccurring injuries and his struggles on defense, his value is in the dumpster.
Nah they NEED Khris Middleton to even stand a chance at winning 2 games in a playoff series the way they been playing defense
If Giddey was a black American, would it be the leading story?
Get that lady off the show!!!
A Sunday night league pass game against Portland is totally irrelevant. They're 3-1 against teams that I would consider tier 1 or tier 2 contenders despite all of these issues. Boston and Denver feel like safer bets, but just like Middleton Porzingus & Murray are serious injury question marks.
What about Giddy ESPN 😂
These defensive issues at the guard spot are alarming and sad. We knew Lillard wasn't the greatest defender but to pair him up with Beasley…. Opposing guards are having career nights just driving down the lanes… Jon Horst better work his magic and get a defensive stopper at the SG position… because Beasley is an offensive spark off the bench at best… maybe start Andre Jackson and Marjon at the 2 & 3… Khris can run the second unit with whoever is out there… I'd love to see Khris come off the bench… Marjon and Andre at the 2 & 3 will give the Bucks much needed Juice/Energy… Dame, Giannis, Brook… that's enough options in the starting lineup, time to make Khris the 6th man, if he ever gets healthy. SMH
celtics blow double digit lead to lose to the hornets
media: they’re so good, they just weren’t trying.
bucks complete a 26 point comeback to beat the blazers by 6
Media: this team is a disappointment, they suck I can’t believe they almost didn’t, but then did beat the blazers, they’ll never win a championship
What’s been the problem all these years? 4th quarter collapse. What’s the Celtics problem this year? 4th quarter collapse. What’s the bucks strength this year? 4th quarter close outs and everything else other than perimeter defense and chemistry.
Stfu media.
Middleton is not what he once was, time for Bucks fans to admit it. Doesn’t mean they can’t win a championship this year, but they shouldn’t rely on him to get them there.
Middleton is washed
What if, what if, what if the bucks get Marcus Smart for the low.
😂😂😂 they said Sometimes They been getting blown out in like all there games this season haha
It’s crazy how ever show on peak is just acting like this josh giddy situation doesn’t exist. They did the same with Ja morant. They gonna go out of they way to not cover the story until they have no choice
If they plan to win a championship, they need to get rid of Middleton asap. He's totally. Unreliable at this point. They might also need a new coach.
Largest comeback win by a player in a first game against his former team??? That's a stat???😂😂😂😂💀
Get macus smart to Milwaukee
Word resilience is overused on every interview coach player politician 😂
