Game 6: - Cavs at Bucks - 11/2/24 - 7:00 - FDS-WI 

Post#1 » by MickeyDavis » Fri Nov 1, 2024 11:28 am

Bucks have lost 4 straight, their only win was against a Sixers team without Embiid and George. Cavs are 5-0. They will be on a B2B, playing Orlando Friday night.

We play the Cavs again Monday in Cleveland.
I'm against picketing but I don't know how to show it.

At this point I'm just wondering how bad it needs to get for the organization to seriously start thinking about firing Doc. And at what point does pride actually start kicking in for some of these dudes?

Oh great, now we get to watch the coach I've wanted for the past year+ shred our Doc lead bucks apart.

**** you, Bucks ownership.

What's more likely to happen first - canning Doc or tearing it all down for an attempt at an abbreviated reset around Giannis?

Ideally they should happen concurrently. I'm willing to entertain the theory that they brought Darvin back as a potential failsafe/interim option much like Stotts last season (before Griffin ran him out of town). The Cavs look like a juggernaut right now, so 1-6 with a bottom-3 net-rating is looking sadly realistic by this time Tuesday.

I’d bet on Doc getting sacked.

It would have to be simultaneous. Does anyone actually want to go into rebuilding for the second half of Giannis' career with Doc as the coach? He was brought in as a Hail Mary to hopefully bring in a vet ex-player with some weight to get through to our vets.

I guess losing enough games so the '31 pick isn't traded for a role player who might've helped put the Bucks over the top, could be seen as a plus.

I think that depends on how deep has Doc sunk his claws into Haslam.

You've mentioned Haslam a few times. Maybe I'm missing something, why do you think Haslam has so much influence? It's my understanding he's busy with the Browns and his other businesses. He's rarely at games. Edens is at games and seems to be in charge.

Feels like a tipping point game, even this early.

Doc also aligns politically more with Edens, which is what I'm guessing is a big reason Doc gets along with ownership and why Edens is willing to let Doc run rampant over this org. Doc is the ultimate gaslighter and has ownership wrapped around his finger it seems.

Haslam just brings his Browns curse with him :lol:

Why would they need Ham when they have Prunty?
