Oh, GTFO Jarrett Ray Allen.

Griffin in his presser talked about building off the foundation that was laid before him and not changing too much of what this team does well, but being flexible to change. Guess that went out the window? This man is handcuffing their defense.

Great effort chasing offensive boards the last minute.

Between this officiating crew and our nonexistent defense, this could get real ugly real quick.

We desperately need this Trevor Gleeson dude to be an under the radar genius who can help Griffin make the necessary changes because our current defensive approach is getting eviscerated by any elite team in a playoff series.

Yeah doesn't feel that bad considering Jarrett Allen is 8/8.

If Brook can't guard the paint (it's not all his fault), then he is useless.

You would think the Bucks beat writers would ask Griffin over and over about the two footers he's allowing, but Eric Nehm and the guy from the Journal are useless.

We look like idiots on the defensive end lol

No difference in how we defended the rim in that first quarter than what you'd see in the all star game. I'm not sure how the coaching staff can be happy with that?

Complete 180 from Bud's give up the 3 to prevent the 2 defense.

Not watching but we clearly have the over on Allen points

We just allowed 20 points in the paint in that first quarter. I've said it 4-5 games in a row now. We have no interior D.

It doesn't have to be an elite team. We have consistently played bad teams or teams without several starters and it doesn't matter.

the posters who say there's no problem by pointing to the record are just not understanding what is in front of them. I would say the three point defense is still very good, but the Cavs have missed a ton of open threes.

They scored almost 40 points in a quarter they went 1-9 from 3. Toss griffin into the sun.

mediocrityrules · Post #76 » by **mediocrityrules** » Sat Dec 30, 2023 1:09 am

We only drew 1 foul on the Cavs for the whole quarter?

I'm starting to think maybe it's the players. This team has the feel of the George Karl era Bucks that had the top offense in the league but couldn't be bothered to defend most of the time.

Post #78 » by **Prez** » Sat Dec 30, 2023 1:10 am

37 points with just one 3, **** off lmao.

Could we have gotten Mitchell for the same package as Dame?

If the bench can't score the Bucks are screwed.
