Better late than never, but I wish the Wiggington release had happened before the season. At least now TyTy can get all the PG reps. While he's struggled overall, feels like he's been better since Wiggington started getting DNPs.

I'm sure I'm not the first to say it.


unless there's something seriously wrong, i dont know how we get better by firing our coach halfway through the season. to me, that's a punt on this season.


Yes. Also, asking any coach to coach a team with 0 experienced perimeter defenders is destined to fail. Switch coaches or not, we still need to add a defender.

I do think they'll trade Beas. They'll given him 89% of the possessions along side the big 3 to to boost his value. They're about to cash that in.

The Bucks have a roster problem that’s more detriment than the coaching problem. All these weirdo claims the head coach needs fired before anything else are baffling. Pat Riley or Phil Jackson or Red Auerbach couldn’t fix the personnel issues the Bucks have right now. There isn’t a group of a collective 100 basketball minds that could turn Beasley into a viable starter, remove Brooks concrete Nikes, fix Khris’s body ailments, make Dames personal life better and turn Bobby Portis, Pat Connaughton and Marjon Beauchamp into real contributors on a championship level team.

Griff might truly be in over his head, I’m certainly not sticking up for him or saying he’s doing a good job but for as great as Horst as been at roster construction in the past, rewarding the aging players on the roster and the overrated bench pieces to keep everything intact seems like a bigger blunder than who we hired to be the coach.

I get arguments that our D would be bad no matter what since we had been planning so much around Jrue.

However the vibes of this team are off.

Bucks could / should be having a blast lighting teams up. Effort wouldn’t be a problem in that context.

That’s coaching. Schemes don’t make sense and the roster doesn’t buy Grief is gonna figure it out.

Yeah, he's a worthwhile player. Doesn't really fill a need, but he's better than Wiggington

Bucks are just going to bring in two other players that aren't going to contribute to anything. Their scouting/development departments stink.

Let's just hire both Van Gundys and see if between the two of them they can make it work. If not they can go back to TNT or whatever next year.

The Pels have a bunch of players that we could use right now. Trey Murphy, Herb Jones, Dyson Daniels. We just have no assets to trade

I don’t believe he is eligible
Dealing with people who exhibit the "smartest person in the room" syndrome can be a challenge. One approach is to listen their opinion while also encouraging open-mindedness. It's important to create an environment where all voices are valued.

Correct. If we had a 15 man roster spot open, I'd be interested.

An obscure G League youngster who might be worth developing as a 2 way? Brazil defensive forward Maozinha Periera.

Hopefully they move the Kings game next Sunday from 6 to 7, no overlap with Packers. Easy to do. Show the game on the scoreboard, it will be over before tip.
I'm against picketing but I don't know how to show it.

They will show the game in the concourse with the entire arena surrounding the TVs watching while the Bucks play to an empty arena as is tradition.

Portis and Beasley are our best value for money contracts... I am not trading them unless we get someone like DeRozan.
Brook,Khris and even Lillard need to play as good as their contracts are. We shouldn't punish the workers, for our "bosses" (well payed players) being lazy and cruising.

Want to hear a funny joke? World Champion head coach Nick Nurse was available still and interviewed (wanted the job) for us at the time that we hurried and hired AG like his services were being competed for.

What on earth is going on with Wiggins?

Minutes down, 3pt % cratered.

Doubt they trade him unless theres a serious locker room issue but damn..

Need-wise Kennedy Chandler is probably the best poa guy out there. Just sign him and waive Pain. Jaylen Nowell still the bpa. Your boy Knight is back on the market. After watching Jontay on the Raps I’m bewildered that we let him walk.
