Let it burn down. And do a hard reset the right way.

No, just move Dame. The rest can be rebuilt with just a Dame trade.

I don’t see how you can compare Jrue and Dame when Jrue gets to sit in the corner all game and make simple reads when the defense is in rotation.

I'm not sure how much better the record would be with a healthy Khris, but I know it would be better without a doubt. They need him. He's the second most valuable player on the team. If we swapped Khris for Dame we'd probably have a better record just from the chemistry on the floor.

If 2 of Dame's many airballs hit the rim... We'd be going out OT at least.

Don't worry. You still have Marjon.

Great game by Green.
Rollins and Jackson also were totally decent.

as bad as dame looked, I'm not sure jrue makes us materially better as #2. Just extremely disappointing we got someone like Dame and he immediately becomes cooked.

I think they’ve forgotten that we’re allowed to win a game every now and then.

One thing over the past 12 months we agreed on 110%.

We said it last season, Bucks needed a full re-build this past off-season. I knew we would be bad if we ran it back this season. But I honestly didn't think we would be quite this bad if we ran it back.

Agree. Jrue wasnt good enough for what we need. Not a $40 million player. Dame isn't either. Keep looking.

Dame gives up far more on defense than Jrue's offensive limitations coming into play.

Celtics are a bad matchup for Dame, you have White and Jrue hunting him on offense and whoever ends up defending can post him on defense

A higher IQ player on the floor makes a huge difference to our team, as we're full of guys that have NFI when on the floor. Aside from him constantly dribbling off his foot, Middleton does lift the overall play of the team when he's out there because he can put people in better spots.

It's absolutely insane to see how much standing and watching this offense has. Dame and Giannis try to run a DHO two-man action and the Celtics blow it up? Better try it again with less time! Whoops, it got blown up again! Gotta try it again! Oh no, there are 3 seconds left, pass it to Prince!

I'll watch again when they run a modern NBA offense.

Too many trash players getting time on this team with an inept coaching staff to wait for MIdds to get back to 100%. That's the only realistic short-term change you can make to try and fix what's been a disastrous start of a season.

Talk about hypocrites(not you) but the critisizm of this coaching staff whrn less than 1 month ago moat of this board was bragging that we had one of the best coaching staffs from top to bottom in the NBA LMFAO

Who’s making the Dame trade?

Who’s coaching the team post Dame trade?

We need more done.

27 ppg, 4 rebs, and 6 assist is cooked. Bucks need more cooked guys.

There’s an alternate universe out there where we kept Jrue and everyone is bitching we never traded for Dame. The Dame/Jrue spot is not where the problems are for the Bucks.
