    imagine we hired him instead of Darko. our season might have been even worse

  2. FallenLemur

    Damn, hopefully he has a spot with Nicky Nurse

  3. LetterheadForeign707

    They have a great roster I thought they were going to be the best team in the league. Although I don’t think he should be responsible for dame’s shortcomings this year.

  4. haley_the_comet

    Bucks record is 30-13. Either the Bucks front office don’t see him fitting well with the team or there’s something else going on…

  5. Cheechers23

    Had to be something behind the scenes right? I know their defence sucks but they’re 30-13 and second in the East, hardly a fireable offence

  6. canadianRSK

    Apparently they are looking at doc as the replacement lmfao

  7. BallerDay

    If your team is 30-13 and you get fired, there’s something deeply wrong with you

  8. TempAccountNumba1

    Damn the NN tree (does AG count?) is soured fruit 

  9. rtztoronto

    Players have complained about his subs (source bobby portis came out and said something after the in season).

    My guess is dame / giannis said something to management and they moved quickly.

  10. LMAO there’s something fishy with the Nurse coaching tree (Bjorkgren, Griffin). Finch is the only one doing well and he’s not really a Nurse guy (was only in the system for like half a year IIRC)

  11. scoottzee

    I wonder if they’re going to bring in Terry Stotts

  12. theguyishere16

    No way this isnt because of something behind the scenes. You dont fire the coach at 30-13.

  13. YaoMingGOAT

    What happened to all NN boys got messy after going HC elsewhere![img](emote|t5_2s5sb|5166)

  14. rodney_furnival

    Kinda wow … Was rooting for him but this doesn’t surprise me. Knew something was wrong when Terry Stotts quit before the season even started.

  15. Big_Albatross_3050

    Did not have that on my Bingo card, they might have started slow since AG was a rookie coach, but they’re 30-13 now and challenging for the top seed in the NBA, AG must have royally fucked up behind the scenes for him to get canned barely half way into the season

  16. imdahman

    Holy fuck I want that tea. Your boy is a fucking science-denying, anti-vaxxer Jesus-freak and the apple usually doesn’t far fall from the tree, so…

  18. Bruh they’re the #2 seed. Has to be beyond basketball

  19. AllOutRaptors

    Between Bjorgren and Griffin, Nick Nurse might have the worst coaching tree in history lmao

    Chris Finch is really saving his legacy rn

  20. That weird incident with Stotts early in the season (or preseason? Can’t remember), that threw up some red flags.

    Griffin, a rookie HC, yelling at a seasoned coach Stotts, who was Dames coach for idk how many years was a bad look.

  21. athomic74

    Apparently they wanna replace him with Glen Rivers 😂😂

  22. jeRskier

    Doc coaching an eastern conference contender with an MVP big man. Surely it’ll work this time.

  23. That Nick nurse coaching tree ain’t doing so hot

  24. They have a pretty good record, maybe the players don’t like him or something? Something must be up to get fired half way through your first season.

    As an assistant on the Bulls, Thunder, and Raptors, Griffin’s players only had really glowing things to say about him and how positive and motivating he was. He was one of the most well regarded assistants in the NBA. Then as a head coach his players hated him. The same thing happened with Nate Bjorkgren — beloved as an assistant, hated as the head coach of the Pacers.

    Some people just don’t have the personalities to be in charge, they become different people when they have authority. I’ve seen it happen in my real life.

    Someone in the NBA sub commented that Bud looks like a sad divorced dad picking up his kids from McDonalds while Nick Nurse looks like a happy divorced dad that’s off to Vegas for a weekend boys trip.

    Now I can’t unsee it.
