    Due to popular demand, I have switched the sub’s header from:

    “**We are the *best* team in the NBA**”

    to

    “**We are the *worst* team in the NBA**”

    This is the first change to the header since Matthew Dellavedova was our starting PG.

    Going forward it will be updated after every respective win or loss to properly reflect how important every single regular season game is.

  2. LiveFrmTheGutter

    damn we let a close one slip away 🤦‍♂️ it happens tho we’ll get the next one 💯

  3. Fantasy_Ball

    You know when someone asks you what NBA player do you think you could beat in a 1v1?

    All the guys you’d think of always shit on the Bucks like Niang and McConnell…

  4. No_Accountant_4242

    Damn looked like the Cowboys out there.

  5. ScrubyScruby

    Tough to lose close games like this one, on to the next I guess

  6. LiveFrmTheGutter

    Due to a scheduling error they accidentally had the Wisconsin Herd play against the Cavaliers tonight, can’t believe the league would do this

  7. Tinytimmytimtim

    Griffin masterclass. Idk about you guys but that 1 day off did wonders for dame. A few more of them and he might shoot average %s three games in a row 😤

  8. Blackmalico32

    Niang scoring 33 is the perfect descriptor for this defense

  9. Superflissbro

    The worst part about this is that we have until Saturday to stew on this before our next game

  10. Our-Gardian-Angel

    If I they were going to televise a murder, they could’ve at least made it a fun Benoit Blanc caper.

  11. High2low2003

    Turns out Giannis is kind of important to this team.

  12. fastattaq

    Can the people that watched the whole thing get an exclusive subreddit flair?

  13. Dame should have shot a 46 pointer at the buzzer

  14. MLGTASEEN

    “gUys gRiFFin is tHe IssUe aNd nOt the pLaYerS shooTing ToUr dateS”

  15. PositiveZebra1341

    from three….beasley 0-3: middleton 0-3; dame 1-5… that is a baaad recipe

  16. Halfway through the regular season and Griffin looks just as a bad as he did to start. No identity in either side of the ball. Thank god Horst traded for Dame cuz with Jrue starting this team would be a 6-8 seed lol

  17. jjjl1985

    This is like the 5th or 6th game they have mailed in this season where they had no effort from the start. I remember a game against the raptors that felt similar.

  18. OutsideTheServiceBox

    I’m ready for Griffin to be officially on the hot seat. Nothing has improved since the start of the year. The defense looks even worse and the offense has not become any more creative. Half a season isn’t a lot, but it’s enough when literally nothing has improved.  

  19. 1998TimThomas

    35 yo Brook is not gonna get it done in the year 2024

  20. WeefBellington24

    Just another reminder at how shit the team is without Giannis. Goooooood god

  21. CreamCityFr34k

    Oh maaaaan, we are gonna laugh about this one when we’re celebrating winning the championship later this year!

    #LET’S GO BUCKS

    🔥 🦌 🔥

  22. Chase2020J

    Fire Adrian Griffin bro he shot 40% Fg and 28% 3pt

  23. PositiveZebra1341

    the only silver lining bossman is back and hit 4/10 on his threes…. and now we don’t have play cleveland again … oh wait….

  24. timtom1994

    Some of y’all using the “but this is one loss, they still have a great record” excuse are ignoring the fact that we used to blow teams out and now we’re barely scraping by teams like the SPURS because we have Giannis and sometimes Dame going nuclear and keeping us afloat.

  25. ScroobieBupples

    At this point I’d rather meet Boston or Philly in the playoffs than Cleveland or Indiana. We’ve had all year to come up with a solution to young, fast teams and so far we’ve come up with “Giannis drop a career high” or “They shoot 10% from deep”.

  26. gandaalf

    Hey, look, another embarassing blowout loss. Everything is fine though!

  27. Significant_Try_839

    I think Jae crowder is cursed. I’m putting all the blame on him, I don’t think we will ever win a game that crowder plays in.

  28. whos-spamuel

    They better light the Pistons tf up next game after this weak shit! I wont accept anything less than a 40+ pt wire to wire win

  29. russ_nas-t

    “At least we’re not…Detroit!

    We’re not Detroit!”

  30. jjjl1985

    I have no idea why Dame refuses to take over in games like these. Shoot it 35 times Dame! No one cares, no one else is going to score.

  31. dirtball_hl

    Nothing to see here just the team helping Giannis’ MVP claim

  32. Zestyclose-Dare-769

    You know what? At least Jae Crowder is back.

  33. aaalan71

    Turns out Griffin scheme isn’t that good when the opponent not missing 37 3s, who would have thought?

  34. GulfstreamAqua

    Losing by 40 is not good, whoever is playing.

  35. chicago262

    Is anyone else’s main emotion sadness ?

  36. Onlyplay2k

    We got no hustle when Giannis isn’t there. We have no heart or drive when the freak isn’t there. 4 rebounds for Brook? Unacceptable for any starting center.
    This is why we need PJ Tucker. We need someone to get one people faces and direct them on defense when they r out of position. We need a defensive leader.
    Also without Giannis to just dominate Bucks got no one to score other than Dame. Khris wasn’t hitting finished with a -40. That’s some Poole crap.
    This was a bad game for the Bucks and shows how much Giannis hides this teams deficiencies. Same as last year even when Jrue is here.
    We finally got the second offense but we lost defense and the 3 scorer (Khris) is a ghost that only appears sometimes.

  37. ChiefsWhiefsSBGoat

    Ain’t no way y’all let the Poverty Franchise Cavs beat y’all by 40
