Fresh faces entered the mix as Cam Thomas and Ousmane Dieng made their Bucks debuts, prompting discussion on their roles and potential impact.

Jericho Sims is 🔒Down!
still forcing aj green at the 3. i hate this coach
gotta say i wish admin would tone down the ads, just want to hear camille justin and frank lol
frank said something positive about kpj! but fr though he has been our second or third best player all year even with all the awful turnovers and middies at times
if you want a win move NancePortis in Green minutes, it gets your worst defensive player off the floor, and both can shot just as well
The thing that needs to change is get rid of the clown coach and then maybe we have a chance.
They got 17 points of turnovers. Again…we cannot be both bad at rebounding and turnovers. Let's hope we shoot a bit better next time also. Nance should be getting more minutes.
Fire Horst, Quack Rivers needs to go
Frank always look gloomy and most of the times not optimistic. Cheer up Frank 😀
What needs to change mainly is every time they make a shot, they gotta dance for the cameras. Instead of getting back on defense, a few seconds dancing, they need a dance back on defense that's ridiculous. Dance after the game is over with
At last, someone said it about rollins
nah should be “Chasing the tank”
Bucks: Locked on TANK!
Let's go!!!!
What went wrong? They played a team that was trying to win. Otherwise the story was the same. Further evidence “chasing play in” is not in the best interest of the franchise.
Does Frank watch the games or his biases?
Reason Sims played so much was bc neither Bobby nor Pete had any chance to contain Banchero who Sims held to just 11 points.
Miles and Pete should have played more but if everyone else had done their job, Sims' lockdown of Orlando"s best player should have meant we won bc Sims did his (again- Zion, Pascal and now Banchero). In addition, Sims and Nance looked real good playing together the prior 3 games, no matter what Frank thinks he saw.
We lost bc Kuzma scored 3 points and Bobby got 0 rebounds and Rollins turned it over six times, period. The inability to move the ball without turning it over is either a coaching or personnel problem that needs to be addressed bc we are bad passers, bad lobbers ( no matter how bad or tough the pass, it's always Sims' fault to Frank if he doesn't catch it) and on defense, a bad rotation-shift team (where in fact the best on the team at rotating on defense is Sims!).
In the future, Doc should tell Cam to aggressively go after his shot every game once we stop scoring bc it will happen again.
Continuing to play AJ at the 3 means this team will tank. He needs to play at the 2 (Cam also) next to Rollins or KPJ bc there r too many TO's, too much dribbling and too much iso play when kpj and Rollins play together.
As such, we are cursed defensively at the 2 either way anyway.
Bad Bunny hands down the best thing at that Super Bowl
What went wrong?? We still have doc rivers as coach.
AJ Green plays to many minutes Kuzma, Harris should not be playing at all Why Turner plays under 30 minutes. start Nance he is a better player than Kuzma. What did Jackson do to not play at all
Franks mic sounds bad compared to camille. Thanks for the episode regardless
What went wrong is doc changed everything that was working and not what wasnt. Doesn't matter what anyone else thinks. His plan is to tank
You ever seen those videos of those India street food vendors who try to act like they are moving fast and doing a lot by twitching around? That's how KPJ plays.
Fire a coach two years after he wins an NBA championship and in a year when he had the best regular season record in the NBA and you don't expect a dose of karma to set in. Add in the personal tragedy the coach was experiencing at this time just throws more fuel on the karma fire. But be sure to retain the coach who falls far short of his predecessor.
Stupid Horst signed a lot of the stiffs for too many years. Cut Green – nope 4-year untradable contract, cut Trent nope 2 year contract, cut Thanos tied to Giannis contract – fking amazing how Horst has destroyed this team's future.
Trent wins 3 games in a row with his shooting and gets a dnp, Quack Rivers is an automatic tank, his handlers need to stop watching porn during the game
Stop blaming bobby, he's a small forward, its Green who makes all his teammates look bad on defense- total cone and that's a compliment.
I just hope the Bucks don't bring Giannis back playing injured as usual, then he plays in Greece, comes back hobbled and untradeable, and still wants a long-term max contract with his cancer brothers
