PG: Bucks on the Brink

[trwi7]

This is what it is to be a Bucks fan.

This is probably, in part, why I've posted here for damn near 20 years

I thought it was for all the poontang.

[chonestown]

So does this board think that if bud is fired the bucks HC position will be a hot get around the league

When you pose the question like that, I gotta say 'Who the hell knows?'

[TroyD92]

this is the first year he didn't significantly improve.

What did he add last year?

improved rebounding for one. I didn't bother looking at the stats. maybe you should.

What do stats say about what was added to his game? Lol

[SupremeHustle]

I didn't watch the post-game. Does Chaz Barkley still think the Bucks are winning it all?

[truly]

I still think there's a chance the bucks pull the series out tbh. Lol

Yes especially if they keep playing one legged Harden.

[Brewhoopfan]

Don't forget much of that KD stretch was them screening Brook onto KD and KD just cooking him every time. Seemed like he was laughing his was back down the court. With DDV I wonder if they could've then gone small.

For the Giannis/KD. Have to remember he had 4 fouls and is prone to charges at all time especially with guys like Blake/Jim Harden flopping/baiting nonstop.

Don't care what the personnel is, you have to hard switch and/or double to get the ball out of Durant's hands. Then you may just have to rotate like every other defense in the **** league.

[MickeyDavis]

Who cares, they’re not winning it

Yes they are.

Good luck.

I’m not watching another minute of this team.

Sorry but I don’t get that. I’m as frustrated as anyone but I don’t quit on the team no matter what. I’ll be watching and rooting for them Thursday night and hopefully Saturday night.

[chonestown]

The national media won't talk about it, but the Bucks really put the clamps on Harden.

This is what it is to be a Bucks fan.

This is probably, in part, why I've posted here for damn near 20 years (holy ****...). No one I know cares to the level I do, so I need to commiserate with your poor, lost souls like me.

It just happens a little bit later in the season the past few years.

We are the OGs

MICKEY GIVE ME AN AND 1 BECAUSE THATS WHAT A HUG IS HERE

[HurricaneKid]

That was quite possibly the best game the Bucks have played since before the break last year.

It's soul crushing that they lost. Kudos to KD. That was some amazing ****.

But tonight the officiating jumped the shark for me. In a game that they had given the Nets a good 12+ points if not more they called a game deciding call with 1:00 to go in a playoff game 5. The worst player on the floor by a sizable margin falls over after hooking a defender in legal guarding position. And the officials go to center court and say that it's a foul. If it is I can no longer abide this game. I've given up football and baseball and held on to basketball but that call and the dozens before it have me asking why I should be spending what time and money I have for this when it's not even reasonable equitably decided.

Never should have even gotten down to that play, this game was decided in the third when we played **** ISO ball and refused to go Small to prevent Jeff Green from cooking us and, and failed to make any adjustment on how we defended Durant. Bud has to go, our players did dumb **** but a good coach couldve salvaged this game with simple adjustments.

Now you are just saying she shouldn't have worn a dress and had makeup on. Did I enjoy watching Bud keep the same failed strategy in place hoping this time it would work when it hadn't the previous 10? Nah.

How many points did the officials give them? KD has an all time game. Jeff Green scores 25 with an eFG% over 1.000. And we still had a tie game with a min to go and they rewarded THAT in the most portent minute of Bucks basketball in 49 years.

Sorry, I think I'm out.

amazing jeff fkn green, i knew it too. He made the 3s harris missed.

As pissed as I am, I think it’s very possible. Not sure what that means, other than the Nets without Kyrie and a healthy Harden aren’t really that good.

Please tell me this is sarcasm.

[CharityStripe34]

I think Kenny and Chuck are reading RealGM, lmao. Wondering why Gianni never guarded KD at all.

It is lol

Does anyone actually love skones? (no offense, skones)

I think so. Other coaches have to see the blatant coaching malpractice and believe they can do way better.

[GHOSTofSIKMA]

I’m 100% on this being the Bucks (mostly Bud’s) fault, but the reffing can make the NBA unwatchable at times. It wasn’t good, no matter what narrative you want to spin.

It's mostly Durant putting in one of the top 50 playoff games of all time.
Everything else matters, but not nearly as important.

when mj dropped 60 or whatever it was in the garden and bird said he was god guess what.... he Iost. you know why? because bird ON A BETTER TEAM..... didnt crawI into a hoIe and start crying. he thought he was a pretty good pIayer himseIf so he pIayed right across from it and wiIIed his team to victory. Soemthing this squad is incapabIe of
