Milwaukee Bucks were OUTPLAYED and OUTWORKED: are they running out of time to find answers?
Milwaukee Bucks suffer another blowout loss, raising urgent questions about team chemistry, effort, and playoff hopes as they can’t seem to escape from the 11th seed in the Eastern Conference. Can the Bucks find a way to turn this around, or are the Bucks running out of time to salvage their season?
Camille Davis breaks down the glaring lack of defensive intensity, selfish offensive play, and the impact of missing rotation players like Kevin Porter Jr. and Myles Turner. Key insights include turnovers putting this game out of reach early, Giannis’s pointed postgame comments about the state of this team plus lineup experiments. The podcast also explores upcoming trade deadline decisions, critical games against the Nuggets and Mavericks, and whether Milwaukee’s next seven-game stretch will define their season. Will the Bucks rise to the challenge or spiral further down the standings?

Greetings from Greece Macedonia Thessaloniki university of Aristotle xcaptain from USA OCS marines and now studying arhaiology and history here in my birthplace paradise and motherland is peacefully without ghettos gangs guns
Giannis do whatever everything he can…no matter if the things going wrong.where is dameee dddaaammmeeed?
Giannis stats is unmatched
We will see with CVS or Oklahoma city thunder
I think a big problem is that Doc wants every role player to be a different role every other game!!! Clearly our roster is lacking energy and high IQ guys, but man, I SWEAR ON MY LIFE, I KNOW our guys could play at such a higher level if they knew what they were buying into.
Also who is Giannis continuing to talk about when he says there are young guys that aren’t listening!?
Rip
The life of this lady must be rough 😭🙏
There is a lack of talent in this team. There is no quality 2nd option to carry the team when needed. Its here and there. This game was lost in 1st quarter and it was evident you needed someone to score. Also the starting line up made no sense. Just start bobby, we were too small and inconsistent in offence.
Bucks need to trade Giannis & start over
Bucks need players playing for their life. The moral is low they look defeated. Never seen Giannis so depressed during the interviews.
This is on the coaching team and Doc. The players don't know what to do. They are not prepared for the games.
It's time to pull the 🔌
At this rate the Hornets might just overtake the Bucks in the standing real soon
He talking about ryan Rollins not giving him the ball 😅
So sucks.. I feel like crying everytime they shot and missed. I really don't like this kuzma. Messy player. 🙉
Last year we beat them at nba Cup because we still have middleton, Dame. This time we cannot even a single game against thunder. 😢😢😢
Bobby is the same one that made a stupid, unnecessary foul during the PLAYOFFS, to the point he got ejected. Not surprising he made yet another stupid foul. 🙄
The Bucks will be stuck in 11th at the end of the year
There are no answers. The Bucks are not a serious franchise.
keep on tanking…
They didn't give him the ball the thunder was in front of gannis and back of him
Serious question: why did we fire Adrian Griffin? He was 30-13 and has the highest winning % of any Bucks coach- Bud is 2nd.
Why aren’t people pressing Horst and the owners about this? There are examples of horrendous trades in sports, but this was a firing that in hindsight, was a literal f**** disaster. Can someone in the local media have the balls to ask “Jon, considering the Bucks struggles, do you regret firing a coach that was 30-13?” So, was Griffin banging one of the players’ wives? Has anyone heard whispers as to why we would fire a coach that was 30-13?
They were worried about defense? Well fuck, we are about to be at the bottom of NBA standings for the next 20-years.
😂😂😂 Please fire Doc put a fork in them they done. That was the worst starting five in the NBA this year. We have no system we run no plays. We don’t play defensive players. I’m not sold on AJ Green but he plays the most minutes. Kuzma sucks, Bobby is just not athletic enough. Harris should be on the bench. No sims no Jackson jr. why? Finally playing nance a little. Finally played Anthony again I’m out on the bucks.
Easy answer. Glenn rivers and darvin ham
Kendrick Perkins was right at halftime. Choke rivers has zapped any sense of hope or team excitement completely from the fans. Fans don't care about the bucks anymore. Dark days are here, and this pods complacency with doc can also be to blame.
