Yup. The Giannis is leaving narrative will keep getting stronger no matter who we hire. And we aren't hiring anyone without his blessing.
I'm against picketing but I don't know how to show it.

You may be right but with the hoopla of nurse being available n tbe bucks looking for a HC i still think there would be someone out there reporting thats nurse isnt interested or the bucks arnt.I have heard more rumors from twitter and team boards n ESPN that nurse is on the bucks list thsn hes not

Can we start a poll? Which team do we adopt if the Bucks hire Mark Jackson. Kings? Thunder?

Is it too late to fire Horst and let someone else run the coaching search? This is so bad

Maybe they are floating some of these names out there so whenever we hire (coach x) we will all be elated?

It's working.

I went from "Atkinson would be an interesting choice" to "Please for the love of god hire Atkinson and get this over with". :lol:

Would be nice if we found out what was going to happen to Ty Lue sooner rather than later. At this point, I'm not even sure he'll be let go of his contract with LA.

Stepping back from the Bucks because of the 1st round exit has given me some Zen. There is no shot they hire Mark Jackson, and if they do, we'll all have fewer reasons to watch the team, which might be better for our long run health.

Don't wanna sound like a conspiracy theorist but maybe Silver bribes Horst in order to destroy Bucks and send Giannis to Knicks :)
Seriously, if Nurse don't wanna coach us or Lue is unavailable, Horst is not to blame.
Hire Vogel. Atkinson maybe?

But hurry up, because i see too many teams looking for a coach. Maybe Sixers or Celtics start looking too for a coach in two hours.
If Nuggets underperformed, maybe them too, i don't know. No time to waste

The Bucks should feel they are better than to do a courtesy interview with that loser. Just a bizarre choice to let that get out.

And yea if Nurse was an actual possibility I reckon we’d know by now. Think he wants a better situation.

It's really weird to me that some very vocal people in this thread are just assuming as fact that we haven't, and ranting accordingly when they don't know **** all.


Some choose to have blind faith in a front office that has had several missteps the last few years, others choose to react to the information we have available


Yeah ok.

Mark Jackson.... oh boy.

The guy was hated by the entire Warriors organization and the Bucks think it would be a good idea to bring that guy here?

I came over here to warn you about Mark Jackson. Looks like I didn't need to.

But I will say this... however bad you think he is....

he's worse.

He didn't vote Jokic for any of the top 5 MVP votes because he completely forgot about him. That's all I need to know.

I can't imagine Nurse not wanting to coach the Bucks, maybe he don't.

I know if I was a coach I would want to coach the team with the best player.
