Woj: Bucks Have Fired HC Adrian Griffin

Welp. That was quick. Almost unheard of for a guy who’s 30-13 on the season in his first year as your HC and currently has your team sitting in the 2-Seed. Ultimately the right decision though imo. Feels like this was inevitable. Was never impressed with that hire and thought it was a considerable downgrade from Coach Bud. Something tells me the players wanted this too or he wouldn’t have gotten canned so soon. Someone else can get more out of this roster though.

Edit*: That didn’t take long. Idk how Doc does it.

Personality clashes. Rough way to lose a job, but ya gotta be able to manage people in the building.

Arent they 2nd in the East right now? I take it this probably was more of a push from the players than anything else. Because I dont think too many coaches are getting fired halfway through the season when theyre a top 3 seed and they had the players support.

What a disaster of a hire that was. You had Nick Nurse sitting right there too. Instead you hire a trainwreck and your EC rival gets Nurse. Geeze.

I wonder if they reach back out to Terry Stotts? Stotts quit before the season because he was conflicting with Griffin IIRC.

I remember it was weird when Terry Stott left the team in training camp as he was brought in due to his relationship with Lillard.

But Bucks started playing well and they seemed fine.

Weird, some bad stuff must have been brewing behind the scenes.

Odd timing. As much as Milwaukee fans have complained about him they're 30-13 and won last night. Makes me wonder if there's something else going on behind the scenes like Udoka (not necessarily the same thing, though)

Yes but they play terrible defense and are underachieving given their talent level.
