We would be so much better if we weren't running an offensive system, which is wild. Just catastrophic coaching.

Welp, one half for any bit of pride we got.

Maybe we should try doubling indy? ... We leave a guy open every play anyway.. Maybe we can get a few turnovers? They shoot lights out anyway... Make it a little difficult on at least one ball handler.

Sans those 2 turnovers, Giannis is having a very good game. Finishing well, and showing a lot more defensively. Gotta trust that shots will eventually drop for others.

Giannis and Trent showed up. Everyone else can pound sand.

Both teams struggling hitting the 3 but 18 assists to 9 is all you need to know about the difference in coaching.
In reference to our title winning year

If you're stressing over this team the problem is you.

Make that one more half, if they don’t win this one, no reason to watch the last one

Probably more frustrating than when we were going for the 9th seed. Absolute embarrassment so we might as well extend Doc.

I have an idea. Start the second half with Kuzma again.

And Lillard? It's pretty bad when his defense is actually better than his offense.

Listen, this team is bereft of talent and there is no easy fix. But for the love of basketball and to keep your fans, Doc has to go.

The franchise superstar is playing like ass and we have people complaining about minutes. If I was a random non Bucks fans I’d be wondering if Giannis wanted out because of how he’s playing. It’s the goddamn playoffs not some random game in January.

Just not a team. Bunch of guys. Giannis does his thing and occasionally somebody else is a pro basketball player. Only guy I enjoyed watching that half was Sims.

In all fairness, the shooters have been garbage except Trent.

If you swap the coaches we’d be going up 3-0. They’re not that good, they’re organized and their players are put in positions to succeed. Our roster is flawed but we’re probably 3 or 4 seed with Carlisle as our coach. This is so frustrating and embarrassing and if our owners choose to bring this clown back I don’t know how can stomach to root for this ****. I’m not saying we should be tier one contenders right now but we should be handling the **** Pacers

Indy's 2-9 are vastly better and have vastly superior coaching. Hard to overcome.
