Disagree, let Dame start with the ball
. I trust him to protect it and find Giannis but not the other way around as much

Really wish Jimmy Haslam's impatience would come into play here.

Kidd brainwashed Giannis to the point he literally doesn't believe Dame is a better PG

A blow out loss to a 4-11 team shoukd absolutely get your ass fired this is embarrasing

I'm sure Owczarski and Nickel will get to the bottom of this. :reporter:

Agreed. In the half court they have gotten mostly floaters and 3s by bad shooters. Of course they are making them and then we are barfing up the ball and that becomes a layup line because Dame and co never get back on defense or refuse to stop the ball.

Guys, we’re only a 3 point loss on the road against the Celtics and a +20 second half at home against the 4 win Blazers away from being first in the East. Settle down.

You’d like to see at some point some real improvement and growth under the new coach and it just doesn’t seem to be there so far.

Remember when we could lock teams up? This team is unrecognisable.

I think this is the main problem I am seeing. I am not sure what it is we are even supposed to be doing. If this is the defense that he wanted to implement, then we are trying to slam square pegs into round holes. What is the growth we are supposed to be seeing defensively? This coach didn't even want to move Brook to drop coverage. Show something that makes this look like a well coached team. It feels like we get into these holes, coming out looking uncoached, and then depend on our stars to reel off incredible nights to beat teams that we would have our bums finishing off 2 years ago.

Brewhoop posted a scathing piece on Griffin recently that was 100% on the money and it got lit up on Bucks Twitter because of the vocal crowd who insisted that any “fire Griffin” chatter was non-basketball related. Then we proceeded to talent our way to a few more wins against middling opponents and now we got hordes and hordes of fans spamming the “we’re 11-5” stuff.

It is deeply depressing watching this season get pissed away completely because of one catastrophic decision, made even worse by the fact that they potentially could salvage things this season but can’t/won’t because of the optics of it.

We hired a coach who needs time to develop when we are a team that doesn’t have time for that. The timelines don’t align. This team needs to win now.

This is the key to the season.. Dame should have a much higher usage rate than giannis. He's a better shooter, ball handler, and decision maker. Giannis would feast off dame. He needs to realize this ****.
