Bucks News, Trade Ideas, Transactions - Schedule Released

[Rstuedes24]

This is probably the least excited I’ve ever been for a season. 8th seed? 1st seed? Does it really matter? We don’t have a single younger player that could potentially be a star. That’s the problem. We are what we are. Giannis is Giannis. Mids is mids. Holiday is holiday. It would be nice if we had 1 22 year old thst could be a star but we don’t and anyone that thinks we do is a homer

So it’s more exciting to have a young guy who could maybe possibly become a star versus watching one of the greatest to ever play, clear cut superstar in Giannis? Any game Giannis plays is worth watching, especially since there’s a good chance we’re bottom feeders after the Giannis era

People are happier rooting for garbage. Also Garbage.

I'll watch every game as I always do, during good times and bad.

I've been lucky to have seen Giannis play in person many times. To see our current great team play in person many times. I don't take that for granted. I know a lot of you don't live in the Milwaukee area and don't have that opportunity. So when I went to a game and Giannis, or another starter, was rested it was no big deal. But it has become a bigger deal to me. Load management isn't going anywhere, new coach or not. I'm done paying full price to watch guys being rested. I'll be at the opener, a few other games during the season and some playoff games but the number of RS games I'll attend will be reduced by about half.

I want to be clear about this. I'm very excited to have a contending team and we are definitely a top tier contender. Like many of you, I suffered for years as a Bucks fan. I love being in the upper echelon of the league year after year.

So while I will be attending less games for the reasons stated above, it doesn't mean I am less excited or less interested in this team. I can't wait for the season to start.

I'm still extremely excited for THIS season. I do think the Bucks have greatly squandered the draft capital/young assets they did have, and that will be the reason their window is shorter than it should have been. That's not even factoring in questions on Middleton's overall health, Giannis' knees as he ages, etc.

I'll be happy if they get one more title in the GA tenure. Would be pretty disappointed with only one.

the revamped coaching staff is reason enough to be excited for this season IMO

that being said after we just had basically the picture-perfect regular season and got bounced in the first round (largely due to bad luck) anyway, it does feel tough to care as much about any regular season...

I agree with the coaching staff angle. The only thing is I'm not sure how much we can actually take from the RS as far as coaching goes. Coaching in the playoffs and coaching in the RS are very different

Honestly just want to see a bunch of weird **** in the regular season. Dre at C? Sure. Both Lopeeze? Yes. We can call it BoLo OR DoLo. A little Thanasis chaos? I hesitate but ok.

You meant bad coaching.Yes giannis getting hurt was big but ge still put up big numbers in games 5 n 6 where was the bad luck other than the fact we had bud n they didnt.The brutal truth is buds head wasnt in it bad luck was the passing of his brother right before game 1.

Gotta say, having very mild roster changes with a new coaching staff really intrigues me.

[emunney]

Getting two of the amateurs I most wanted probably has made me a lot more tolerant of the lack of other roster movement. Keeping the team together feels like a strong choice, not sure if it's a good one though.

Will be interesting to see if this is the first season in awhile that half our team isn't banged up by the 4th game of the season now that Bud is no longer the head coach.

Out of curiosity, what's your theory here? Seems most fans are upset at how little Bud used his players. Are you saying he pushed them too much?

Think he's saying Bud sat his guys with fake injuries early in the year for load management purposes.

You are correct. Although I don't know for certain that guys were faking injuries or faking them every time. But with Bud now gone, maybe things will be different. I guess we will find out.

I've said it before a bunch of times, but I find it hard to believe that a basketball team would have that many guys perpetually banged up a week into the season year after year.

Yeah, if nothing else we're going to get a really good answer to the question of how much Bud was to blame for team's collective putrid BBIQ.

Whenever I brought up how bad the Buck's collective BBIQ is/was, I always said it's hard to say how much of it is the players or Bud? Now we will find out.

Having Stotts is going to be big and gives me reason for some real optimism coaching wise.

It's kind of funny, of all the former Buck's coaches/assistants that I never really bad mouthed after they were gone and even stuck up for at times, were Joe Prunty and Terry Stotts. Now they're both back. No complaints from me with those 2 hires.

I would take Stotts over Bud at head coach if I had to pick between the two.

Dude man your last sentence about stotts over bud as much as i critisized bud for very questionable decision making im not sure stotts is even on the sane block as bud is.I know he had some good seasons in portland but wasnt one of stotts bigest bugaboos was failure to adjust like bud.I do think stotts euns a much better O though

Feels like a soft opening into the new era. Guessing the team transitions slowly over the season.
