Can’t afford to play Brook defensively, can’t afford to not play him offensively. This has been one of the biggest problems for the bucks most playoffs. Kuzma can’t play at all.

Remember a week ago when I said there are posters on this board who deserve to collect an NBA paycheck more than Doc Rivers.

That feels even more true now....lol.

Kuz is the right guy for this series.. just has to finish better in the lane.. he's active and playing aggressive.. use a couple pump fakes against aggressive players and he'll be fine.

Kuzma might as well have been a guy off the street from the tip in this one.

Horst and Doc have made their bed with this stuff.
Go Bucks!

You continue to embarrass yourself with your blind love for Kuzma.

Rather be watching Khris in street clothes than Kuzma actively sabotaging the team.

Did you read the article? Giannis was determined not to play for Nurse, ie the Bucks presented him with multiple options including Griffin and Nurse and Giannis did not want Nurse. Who put those as the options to begin with??

They're barely guarding him and he's been horrible. His defense has also been awful.
