Far from the most important note tonight but it's crazy that, in this game, Tyty is somehow literally the only player on the roster who got a DNP.

Bucks could still save this season but they'd have to fire Griffin right now. If there is one month in the regular season where you could approach it like preseason and it probably won't hurt you, it's January. Fire Griffin now, get a new coach in here and treat the rest of this month like preseason, then start building towards the playoffs after the all star break.

Once you get into February it would likley be too late. If Griffin isn't fired within the next week, this season will be lost IMO.

Would love nothing more. And I think the guy would get a standing ovation entering Fiserv.

I still say there’s a chance this could happen, and it should. Let’s hope Horst and ownership didn’t burn that bridge.

Obviously, you've never been fired. Good for you. Seriously. When you're told "We don't want you to work here anymore, get the **** out of here," publicly in front of the entire world....the bridge takes a bit of damage.

On top of everything else, Grief decided that we didn't need any ball handlers at all.

Grief needs to go. We need a shake up and this is the only realistic way to get a major change on time.

Was only just thinking isn’t this kinda game the exact reason for two way guys to get minutes? Top two guards out and he still can’t get playing time?

At this point I am hoping we get smashed by Boston to force a change/trade. Even Thanasis can do better coaching than AG.

He had to take a call.

I was told confidently that was only just one call though.

I'm not sure how getting smashed by Utah is somehow not as bad as getting smashed by Boston? Surely this game was the catalyst for change (if not the already large body of work that Grief has left in his wake).

Not Brook... 2nd leading shot blocker.. Midds seat should be hot ... he's not gelling with the dude he should be gelling with. Beas would play off the bench as a flame thrower but our starting 2 and 3 should be goons that set picks, play D and can be efficent in catch/shoot.

There was a story in Washington where Westbrook stopped practice and told the team that had Bradley Beal that in the last 7 possessions he didn't get the ball.. who do you think you are? do you know who he is? All NBA Bradley Beal, he should touch the ball everytime.

Well you could say that even stronger about Dame. Who TF is Midds to ever take the ball out of Dame's hands

Does being a leading shotblocker matter when you get cooked on the perimeter on any switch

I think if there’s one person who can come in and salvage the most out of THIS season it’s Bud.

In retrospect he wasn’t in his right mind last April. But he’s won a title and this team is still highly intact. They’d be able to pick up his system quickly and Dame would eat.

Rolling with AG is kind of blindly hoping the talent level can make up for his inexperience. To be honest, that’s how I kinda feel they have the record they have now.

JayMKE · Post #135 » by **JayMKE** » Tue Jan 9, 2024 11:23 am

Its just business at this point, regardless of how his last tenure ended Budenholzer is the best man for the job right now and only guy I expect to be able to mop up this mess on the fly.

Bucks ownership has to be tired of the team being a literal joke at this point. Fire Griff tomorrow.

I think it’s too late in the season for that. We’re probably looking at guys not in the league right now like Doc. I don’t see the Warriors doing us any favors by letting their top assistant walk midway through the season while they are trying to make a playoff push.

Doc is interesting..cant be worse than AG?

Firing a guy whose brother died during the playoffs, won you a championship 3 years ago, and took you to the playoffs every year he coached is more than burning a bridge. They blew that mf'er up and buried it 10 feet under the ground.

JayMKE · Post #140 » by **JayMKE** » Tue Jan 9, 2024 12:03 pm

Doc is not the direction I want this team to go and I don't think he would be leaving his media gig midseason, I'm sure he has a big contract from ESPN/ABC/Disney and we'd all be calling for Doc pretty quick. If Horst & the owners can't be humbled into begging Budenholzer or Stotts to come back we're ****.
