Doc Rivers Reacts to Bucks Loss to Shorthanded Grizzlies Before All-Star Break



Doc Rivers Reacts to Bucks Loss to Shorthanded Grizzlies Before All-Star Break

Uh before the game you had mentioned how this can be a bit of a trap game what did you think of the guy effort tonight I thought we were bad until we needed to be you know what I mean like we started out the game um I think um we gifted

Like five threes in a row where we were standing there we just you know dare shots um everybody in this league can play you got to respect everybody um the one kid made three in a row you know um and we did we didn’t even adjust so that’s something um you these losses

Obviously you don’t want to lose games like this ever um does that change the way I think about the team and where I think we no it doesn’t at all um I got a lot of confidence in this group uh but we going to have to make changes as far as how we

Want to play every night um and we we ease into the game that’s everybody we need our the guys that can play defense to be better defensively uh and we need the guys who are learning to play defense uh to be solid in rotations and

Things like that um you know at the end of the game we start playing hard and we got right back in the game it just tells you where we where we were at all game uh these are tough games though and we knew it uh does that make the start to

The second half more frustrating no it doesn’t do anything it really doesn’t uh we get to gather ourself um you know get get Chris back in a couple games hopefully I don’t know when um and just build from there um in that third they scored 37 you call timeout you know 47

Seconds in it just told us where we were at like the uh first play we we gamble for the 50th time in the corner guy drives uh we have to help leads to a three we come back in this uh on our Set uh two guys forget what we’re running uh

Then we missed a shot and then nobody gets back that’s how we start out the third quarter that tells you all you need to know about where our heads were um you know um we had some guys here we had some guys in Cabo

Doc Rivers says “we had some guys here, we had some guys in Cabo” after the Bucks loss to the shorthanded Grizzlies going into the NBA All-Star Break.

  1. Before the season,two teams I looked at and said, "this doesn't feel like a great fit"….Golden State and Milwaukee. Klay shoulda been coming off the bench more consistently than he has WAY before now and they shoulda got rid of Middleton and some other pieces instead.

  2. With every news worthy item that’s covered it becomes clear that American culture is a mess. What becomes more and more clear is that there can be no actual patriotism in America, there can be no honor. No one can be honorable anymore. America is the domain of L. The domain of hood.

  3. 😅.This just shows that defense does really win championships. Knowing NBA professional players can put a ball in the basket easily but with a lost and slow defensive scheme you're doomed!

  4. Tells you a lot about the higher ups in Milwaukee if they seriously thought this shell of a coach could do anything useful 😅

  5. I like doc I think he is a wonderful person, but as a coach I think he lost his mojo, cannot support him anymore, here it comes to ruin another great team, fire him please

  6. Grizzlies didn’t have their 3 BEST players!!!!!! Bucks had their duo lol that’s wild!! They are not a threat in the east

  7. I was smart enough to not make a futures bet on them, and the hiring of DOC made my decision look that much better, thank you Bucks Front Offfice.

  8. The 2023 – 2024 Milwaukee Bucks are not getting past the second round. I would love to be proven wrong, but it's not looking good…

  9. You are the coach- you are in charge of your guys being mentally ready and prepared to come to play. Failure to do this is incompetency. Turnovers happen, missed shots happen- failure to prepare makes the Bucks a non championship team.

    Bucks fans, I feel sorry for you. Doc rivers is the most overrated coach, an awful coach, and closed your championship window.

  10. Bucks are a joke now. They fired two coaches that were better than doc expecting to better. Playoff experience doesnt mean crap if the didn't learn anything from the experience 🤣They should have stuck with Bud or Griffen, at least they were playing to win. With Doc, theyre playing to lose.

  11. Doc has to stop smiling when they lose a Game, he needs to Start being serious when the team loses, all the last few loses doc has been smiling at thr press conference like a lost doesnt mean anything, doc needs to start to get Serious see if he can turn this yeam around after the all star break
