Sixers lost to Jazz. Bucks down 16 to Rockets going into 4th. Cs can get more separation with Bucks loss.

Can't believe Poole was one of the main reasons we lost the Finals to the Warriors in '22. SMFH.

That was just a case of Poole got hot at the right time.

Poole was awesome that season.

It started to go downhill for Poole when Draymond punched his grill.

The problem is the Bucks might not believe you. :lol:

Bucks lose.

Cs now have some separation for the #1 seed.

LOL Bucks got it down to 5 points with 24 secs left. That's considered a "clutch game". They've been one of the best at clutch games. Only their 6th loss in 20 games. Second only to the Wolves in win %.

The loss wasn't bad. OKC can't hang with us when we bring it.

Cs now have a cushion over the Bucks for the #1 seed.

I know going 5-0 is tough, but it's doable now after the Cs go 2-0 on this 5-game stretch.

Bucks lost Beasley so this loss doesn't count.

Was this your attempt at sarcasm ?

Bad day for Indy sports fans.

Colts eliminated.

A big development for the Cs is Lillard is looking like he's aging. Has been inconsistent.

Dame peaked in 2019 when they got swept by GSW in that 2019 western conference finals.

Random: The last 3 NBA champions won less than 2/3 of their regular season games. Before them, last time it happened was with the 2006 Heat.

Too early to say, but he could turn out to be their Derrick White.

I could be wrong but I think Giannis wants the Bucks to be better.

Fierce1 · Post #139 » by **Fierce1** » Sun Jan 7, 2024 4:33 pm

Simply put, Giannis just wants a new coach.

He's not saying it directly, but it's obvious.

"We have to be coached better" is wild :lol:
