Honestly, if this team wants to go anywhere then Giannis is going to have to suck it up and play center and not worry about his scoring.

He's been getting cooked all year by guys a third of KAT's athleticism and skill level. It's time.


Brook's still an elite interior defender and rim protector. But he's unplayable in a lot of situations and tonight is one of them.


If that were still true, the results would back that up. A couple of weak side blocks to bump up the numbers doesn’t impress me much. He’s been routinely abused by most matchups this year.

He benched Trent. I think Doc's just dumb. Doesn't realize you don't need to play 2 true bigs, even in this age.

Current Doc might be the all-time example of the most washed up old coach who used to be good but somehow still has a head coaching job.

Doc is like 21-30 with the Bucks. The fact that Griffin was able to get pretty much this same roster to 30-13 is a next level testament to how bad Doc is.

Didn't we all know Doc wasn't a good coach. They got rid of Bud because of his playoff record, but then they brought in someone with a worse playoff record.

So Trent, Prince, Brook, Bobby and Pat are all unplayable. Did I miss anyone?

Giannis completely forgetting the basic fundamentals of defense at age 29 is not something I had on my bingo card.

When Giannis won his first MVP at age 24. I thought he would be absolutely destroying the league by the time he was 29.

There's nothing to wait until Middleton is back to see. This is over now. We can pretend but this is done.

I think its just effort. When he was young he flew around the court. Now it looks like he picks his spots and those spots are becoming few and far between.

First game I've watched and good Lord this team is horrible. No one cares on the court. May as well start trading people.

The block in the finals is an all timer of understanding where and what he had to do but I feel like he's genuinely not very good at that type of thing compared to other great defenders.
