Giannis said on a Greek reporter that he is thinking coming to Greece and play for 5 years ... If a team can match his salary. He said he likes a more strategic game and he gets hit so many times in the NBA without calls that he is bored of it and he is frustrated for not rewarding him

Giannis is going to lose his streak tonight too.

I don’t consider Dame a limited asset.

I think the problem is that we have the easiest SoS for January, so they don't have to try. All these games will just win themselves.

You'd think after losing at home to the Nets a week ago.

The Bucks would come out mad and with some pride.

Instead they not only lose again, but they get blown out.

To say this team needs massive and sweeping changes is not an overreaction at this point.

Keep Giannis and the young guys. Trade everyone else.

Lol make a FT g. It's not that hard. Get rid of that abysmal routine and slow as nails release.

Dame is either sick, hurt or cooked.

I don’t consider Dame a limited asset.

Bucks still have a chance to be significantly better by March/April if they pull off a slick Dame trade by the deadline.


But Dame absolutely must go.

A more strategic game for a player with low basket IQ. He'd dominate though due to less talented opponents.
I'm against picketing but I don't know how to show it.

Brook Lopez is insanely useless sometimes. Tonight is 1 of those times. Keep him off the floor now.

Maybe they could trade him for a 3 and D guard like Jrue.

That comeback against Indy signaled to our vets they could relax for long periods & still win. Did the same thing last season. I think having Dame on the team is a lot of that, especially when he can't get juiced from getting in a rhythm on ball.

Allowed 20 points off our 10 turnovers. That is a we are tanking stat right there.

The "3" & d guard who averaged 30% from 3 in the playoffs for us?

You can critique that trade, but not because they traded Jrue.

He said he loved the more organised basketball in EU ... and how he had less playmaking duties since Greek Point Guards were passing him the ball on point. There honestly a small possibility if the Bucks continue to suck like this .... Giannis could come to Europe after his contract expires

Return to Milwaukee Bucks
