1 Player makes that much of a difference and its Bobby, he's such a weak link and none of you can see it
Please, Justin take a day off (in your words- ‘for obvious reasons’) then discuss why Doc Rivers is being allowed to finish this season. Why is ownership & Horst allowing Rivers to eventually touch &/or target every player’s confidence? What NBA player would want to play on this team? What is the ownership’s belief that Rivers is their coach next season? It’s obvious it is a number above 0%.
yes.. keep on tanking…
Rivers was washed as a coach years ago. Giannis is dominant, but often fails to pass to wide open teammates, and tries to score when double or triple teamed. Independent observation of a Cav fan.
They should wear the black uniforms from this point on.
Doc trash 🗑️ we run no plays only after a time out other than that they just out there. we play switch defense when AJ green on the court he gets cooked when Bobby on the court he gets cooked Bobby can score but can’t rebound AJ green is not an nba starter and can’t defend. Those two guys eating 50 minutes a game is diabolical. Giannis, Turner, deing, Rollins, Kuzma, bench Thomas, nance, sims, Jackson
We have no offensive sets , we have no plays. We have no defensive principles. We are witnessing every game, the worst coaching staff in the NBA . Doc Rivers keeping his job is insane.
Even Doc is going to understand in his exit interview
They asked Giannis for a gap year to tank.
Biggest issue with this team over the past 3 years is COACHING. Mike B needed to go as he's not a great coach as proven by his team in Phoenix, but his replacements were not the right hires. You look at other coaches in the league and what they have done with less talent, and it's super sad and depressing on where Bucks are at. #1 goal this off-season is to find a hopefully young, hungry and innovative coach and then hopefully find a way to keep Giannis and be a competitive team come next year.
I’m sorry guys, I opened up YT and this video popped up. It started auto playing and I laughed.
I can literally see the pain and misery in your eyes over this season.
Stay strong Bucks fans, it was a good ride while it lasted.
Milwaukee Bucks I still believe in this season and this team. We got too win out and not lose another game and let the chips fall where they fall. We got this we can do this. We are professional gangbangers we're not throwing in the season for some unproven rookie. ''Let's fucking win''. Bucks in 6 ""let's relive the Magic""!💫🏆
I love you guys , we’re going through it together 😂
Justin Garcia your ARROGANCE is coming back to bite you. Two weeks ago you said Miami would drop out the play-in for Bucks 😂😂😂😂 come on man. You know better! Thank God Camille is realistic.
Dame was more impactful than people realized.
Unsub all bucks related content.. all this losing is not good for my mental
Its all karma , how we did coach Griffin how we did dru holiday plus more its all coming back in one epic failure season
Since the beginning of the season, we have been cursed with something I call the 3rd quarter sickness/curse. We can't finish games after the 3rd quarter and we can't even beat a 3 game win streak we had to two 3 game winstreaks and we lost in horrible fashion every fourth game. Sadly enough we broke that curse yesterday with our official 4th loss in a row. Im big believer in giannis should have left MIL. But tell me what you guys think.
This is a disgrace. The more the bucks keep Doc rivers as a coach the more time it's going to take for the team to shape up. That's if he doesn't destroy what conference the new players have.
Who is making decisions over there?
Fire Doc.
Jesse is finally to the point i was at 2 months ago
AJ Green was never a Starter. I just don’t know why people have been pushing this Narrative.
A 6’4 Guard who can’t defend or handle the ball… Huh?
Yes, he is a knockdown shooter which makes him a Situational Rotation Piece who can’t defend play 15-20 minutes Max. He is not a Starting Wing Player for a Good Team in the NBA.
