Post Game Thread Bucks - Raptors

Bucks sucks.
Discuss the problem and hope LK read this

[WEFFPIM]

The problem is LK, along with the roster and the organization from top to bottom.

As I'm typing whatever it was I was going to type in here Gadzuric gets blocked by that pesky rim. There's one problem. Dan Gadzuric is a basketball player for the Milwaukee Bucks who is making $7 million.

[Stopshere2]

Another 3rd quarter drubbing. Bucks have won 1 third quarter in the past 13 games. Tonight's was the 5th 3rd quarter blowout in 2008 when they were well in the game at the half. LK must bore the shyte out of them or something in the locker room.

The biggest problem: Bogut's early fouls led to the team going away from what has been a reasonably good early game plan in recent weeks, ie, work from the low post. The guards had taken 2 threes when Bogut left with 6:35 left in the 1st. They then saw the green light for some long-range bombing and took another dozen before the halftime break. But why stop there? They took another 5 in the first 5 minutes of the 3rd quarter.

Everything I hate about this team was on display tonight.

[Fight the Tank]

Does anyone get better on the Bucks? Gadzuric should not be this bad....He started 4 years ago. He wasn't that bad. Yi is getting worse while other team's rookies are improving. WTF is going on over there? This team should not be this bad. I have a sneaking suspicion that the "freeze" is coming for Bogut for the next few weeks. I love the Bucks but I absolutely hate the direction of this team.

We would have won if it wasnt for that bad 3rd qtr.

If we hadnt had one bad qtr in each game this season we'd be up there record wise with the Celtics.



Lets take a guess,thats what Larry K or someone from his staff will say after the game.

Memo to Larry K and his staff:

Heres a concept for ya,instead of saying that after every game and accepting it why not try to figure out why it keeps and happening so you can maybe figure out a way to correct that problem and then maybe it will stop happening.



Thank god we gave Larry k that big contract before he left Milwaukee for Montana,whew that was a close one.

[blkout]

Larry K's substitution patterns, Michael Redd's "leadership", almost everyone's defense, Chris Bosh, repeat.

Just got home from Churchill Downs and dinner in Louisville (which BTW is a very nice city). Looks like everybody played well.

[Fight the Tank]

We have Gadzo the (Please Use More Appropriate Word) Squirrel and Bobby No Ups Simmons.

At this point why not.

Ironically Zach has that ''why not'' body expression in that picture haha.

You do that on purpose?

I can't stand Zach Randolf but I'm beginning to warm up to that deal. Anything to get Bobby and Yi out of the starting lineup right now is okay with me. They bring absolutely nothing to the table right now for this team. You cant win games with two guys in the starting lineup who can't score or play D. Move Bobby and bench Yi. This has to happen.

Although I'm sure we'll find some way to put this one on Redd and Redd alone.

[Fight the Tank]

If the Bucks do that trade they should try to get Nate Robinson.

Ok so I've never said this about a coach in any sport before as I've always (until recently) been a coach supporter, and was one of very few against firing stotts, but it's time to fire LK.

His substitution patterns and coaching in general are an absolute joke and tonight was breaking point for me. He obviously cannot control Michael Redd who went 1 of fricking 7 from three point land tonight, has no concept of team rotations and little to no ability to adjust on the fly in a game.
We started this game well, hit the post where bogut went 2 of 3 and kicked to the perimeter with wide open looks. Bogut get's his second foul and LK proceeds to sit him for 13 minutes, more than a quarter, before putting him back in ice cold for the grand total of 3 minutes, before pulling him again on an offensive play in the last minute.
By that point the chuck brigade were in full swing and shooting like crap and our game was entirely perimeter based, and our inside play was gone for the game. We made only a brief attempt to go to it again early in the 3rd, it worked briefly before the jumpshooting started again and the wheels completely fell off.

On other points -

Bobby was huge for us last night yet played 9 minutes in the first half whilst playing solid D and hitting the boards for 5 rebounds, way to reward the guy.
CV was seriously ballin in the first half (including playing excellent defense) and was our best player by distance, so LK took him out midway through the 2nd at his hottest point, way to reward the guy.

I'm done with LK. Firing a rookie coach is not a good idea unless that appointment was a mistake in the first place. LK might be the greatest assistant coach in the history of basketball, but as a head coach he is sh*t, it's time to go.

Bogut, Bobby and CV would be furious after tonight, rightfully so.

[Fight the Tank]

While watching the Knicks game tonight I may have found a worse approach than the Bucks with the Knicks. Doesn't really say much although Eddy Curry's back fat is impressive.

the ball didn't go thru yi
so what did he done wrong?

but i am ok with benching him
he can't face first unit
maybe second unit, he would have more touch and possiblity developing faster
