Game 34: Bucks at Pacers - 1/3/24 - 6:00 - BSWI - Middleton Questionable, Green Out , Pat questionable

[mediocrityrules]

Horst you have to go find another defender or maybe rearrange this squad. This roster can’t beat Boston in a series and probably can’t beat Indiana in a series unless Giannis goes supernova. This is not a title contending roster anymore. Doesn’t matter who is coaching

This coach ain't beating Boston in series even if he had a team of All-Star defenders.

How do you make a defense good with Dame, Beasley, Mids and an aging Brook who is clearly not the same as he was last year in that end? There are no good defenders here other than Giannis and he can’t cover for everyone. Our bench defenders aren’t any better and may be worse. Our defense is probably right where it should be. We have bad defensive players

If your scheme consistently has Brook chasing the guards out beyond the perimeter (with Giannis), then you're running completely the wrong scheme for your personnel.

[Matches Malone]

We run a stupid ass offense that makes Dame a catch-and-shoot shooter half the time. He’s most effective as a playmaker and shooting off the dribble.

Griff found a way to neuter his best offensive player and his two best defensive players (Giannis/Brook). It's truly remarkable the abomination of a coaching job he's done.

[TroyD92]

Why are you guys arguing with him. He’s a literal Giannis superfan

Philly had a top defense with Harden and Maxey last year. It’s the scheme, and Griff keeps running it.

Who's a bigger bitch Reggie or Hali? Two of the most hatable mfers I've ever watched.

Yep, Haliburton is not nearly as likable as he thinks he is. Dude celebrates after every made basket, it seems.

I'm not a fan of his antics, but sometimes it's important to remember these guys are 23 years old.

Na. **** him.

[steger_3434]

You guys realize we have a mediocre player that wiggles after made threes and you’re mad at Halli for smiling?

Okay, let's win.

Hali scored 5 points since I wrote that less than a minute ago. Optimist wince!

[StickeeFingaz]

Now refs are overcompensating on not calling the continuation.

[DingleJerry]

Out of context stats mean nothing and i explained it we had good RS stats only to get clown in the playoffs because we could stop anyone and kept sagging.Both of these happen vs Boston and Miami

lol out of context? It is literally THE stat that measures defense.

You realize the same stats do not translate into the playoffs right when you play the same team for 7 games and they plan for you.

You realize they were 2nd in playoff D in 22 and won a title in 21 on their D? Sorry man, you are just comically wrong here.

[Magic Giannison]

I gave you the stat. I don't know how you can deny it but go ahead if you want. If you think being 4th on D while of course having weaknesses (which of course means they had less weaknesses than almost all other teams) is the same as being like 20th and whatever is going on here is the same I don't know what to say

The Bucks took Boston to 7 games without Khris. This Bucks coached team couldn’t make it to 5 games with a full roster.

Bucks?Giannis carried the living hell out of that series to the point it was so bad that Giannis got exhausted in 2nd half and we got demolished

[Profound23]

That's not a goaltend, but it's a foul

Miami churns out a good D every year with half their team being bad individual defenders.

Be mad at the team Hali is destroying. Hilarious to get mad at the player.

[MrHoneycutt]

I'm upset but I don't think I'm as upset as I used to be watching John Henson.

[MoreTrife]

Hali's gonna get socked one of these days and he'll cry and act like he has no idea why.

[RiotPunch]

This ref is nothing but a showman.

[MoreTrife]

Also, **** Bruce Brown. Always hated that untalented try hard.

[dedned]

Little Richard out there reffing.

[DingleJerry]

I'm at the point where I hope they lose these next few supposedly easy games followed by a thumping to Boston and they can fire the coach.
