This is the kind of game that gets coaches fired.

But the roster is just flawed. Top heavy without top end talent. Only one real ball handler/shot creator. Too many small guard and small forwards.

I wouldn't fire Brown, he had guys playing at a peak level a month ago, but if they do Rose needs to go too along with 50% of the roster.

for who ? we're getting giannis ? because all the word out there is the bucks are telling teams they're buyers more than any other team in the league.


It doesn't have to be for Giannis. An entire team just going through the motions like this isn't normal.

Yes. Tell Buzz.

Yes, of course he's the fault of everything to you.

Can't wait until you have to suffer with the likes of Fat Felton and Elf again.


One of those really old school test questions!

Jimmit is to RJ as prophetofrage is to _____

Do you think he’ll ever post here again if Brunson is gone?

Yes, they did quit on him.


If that's the case doesnt that reflect on brunson ?

Brunson’s leadership is akin to Melo’s.

The more I think about it Brunson really is a guard version of him lol.

The team comes out over and over, chucking up 3’s
It puts them in a hole because they are giving up long rebounds and transition 3’s the other way

That’s not how we win games

He should be playing to score instead of waiting for a whistle.

Yeah there’s no way that’s the case evidenced by Brunson trying to huddle the team that they showed during the NBC stream.

This is his team. We are a reflection of leon Rose and brunson vision. We have nova guys. How in the world would you let something like this fester if the team is really checked out?
