Owners ego getting in way of firing Doc, time to clean house. Dame trade was a bad move, the move was always look to cash out Bobby or pat for a gunner wing or athletic big.

Now comes the part where we find out if we're the Bucks of most of this century. Is this upcoming stretch the easy part of the schedule or are we the easy part of other teams' schedules?

Pritchard smoked us again.

Let's go more the 'Bud route'. Find an actual game plan first (which we don't even have that), then pick the players that can play inside and compliment that game plan.

The Jrue love is hilarious after everyone wanted him gone after Jimmy torched him in the playoffs.

Rollins and Jackson also were totally decent.

Green was really good. Strong, intense, smart. Elite shot making. Keeps his man in front of him. Everything we need.

1) This has nothing to do with the outcome, but please tell me how Lopez can only get one rebound? Is that statistically possible? Is it the scorer's fault at the table? Portis's fault?

2) I'd keep Jackson in the lineup until there is more evidence, but having three starters under 10 points isn't sustainable.

3) Dame can be stopped in the playoffs with good defense. Need other consistent scorers.

What the **** was wrong with Dame?

Can you call it a badly coached team if they're executing a decrepit gameplan correctly?

AJ and Dame constantly end up in the same areas, that’s just poor coaching. Idk what the offensive scheme, but whatever it is, it’s just awful. How many possessions had more than 3 passes?

They out mathed us this game. Shot way worse but made 6 more 3’s and somehow got the line 6 more times.

Good defensive game, just occasionally lazy finishing the possession and made some poor plays down the stretch.

Uh, not me. Dame trade at the time seemed great. But I’ve never been on the “it wuz Jrue’s fault” train.

Insane that Horst and Doc still have a job. Two of the biggest idiots in the league, but they dont even hold a candle to the morons who own the team.

Bucks can play with the Celtics, but to win Dame can't be this useless. I'm fine with him being useful in a trade.

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

Now do Westbrook’s stats from some of his seasons.

It doesn’t win games. And you can’t have a functioning defense with him in there.

The game plan against the Bucks is easy. Double Dame and let Giannis get his in the paint. No one else can do anything consistently.

Didn't take the Haslem's long to bring their bad juju to this team and completely crash the ship.

As much as I believe Rivers is a terrible coach and there are flaws in this roster, there are arguments to be made we have a shot to be 4-0 verses Cavs and Celtics with Middleton playing. With our roster we cannot really afford to be without him. It is what it is. I will say I’m pretty goddam sick of seeing him in street clothes.

I bet a real coach could make it work. Doc came out of retirement to chase a bag that the idiots who own this team dangled in front of him. Constant missteps by ownership have sunk this team.

Owners need to stop meddling and Horst needs to be fired who it best option out there to overhaul our front office

You could if you had an athletic big to cover the blow-bys. Same reason Jimmy Butler went off on a good defender like Jrue. Brook is too old and slow to help out like he use to. He block shots if he is under the rim, but he is too slow to defend further out.
