Game 74: Hawks at Bucks - 3/30/25 - 6:00 - FDSWI

Post #1 » by **MickeyDavis** » Sat Mar 29, 2025 4:52 pm

We are facing the Hawks for the 5th time this season (one tournament game). We are 1-1 at home against them, 1-1 on the road. We are 5 games up on them with 9 to play, technically we could fall to the 7th seed. Unlikely but who knows. Bucks have lost 3 straight, Hawks have lost 2 straight. The 6 month nightmare is getting closer to the end.

GO BUCKS!

As usual, please keep the discussion in this thread on THIS GAME ONLY. Thanks!

I'm excited to watch Rollins. Hope he continues on this streak. Also hope KPJ can find some rhythm again.

It’s interesting how much our owners like Friday/Sunday home games. Have to think that’s on purpose so they can fly in for a weekend. In contrast Kohl always wanted that Saturday night gate.

Hoping Rollins can continue his good play might be the only thing to look forward to the next couple of weeks.

Going to this game with my daughter bought tickets before this current losing streak and Dame news. Doc still baffles me with not start GTJ when we got him as a coach I tried to be positive after reading all the bad stuff being said about him. But I didn’t expect them to be all right lol

That's cool taking your kid. I hope it's a good game.

I predict 6 steals for Daniels but we get the W. The Hawks should have smelled blood in the water and won at least 1 of their last 2 but they don't seem to care about winning either so 6 seed and gentleman's sweep to the Knicks is likely safe.

The Green shoulder injury sucks. It will effect his shooting, and we've run out of depth.

Smith and Livingston might be G league players and not nba ready for years even but I had read similar comments about AJ Johnson in this forum. Now I see so much regret expressed for giving away Johnson. I didn’t like giving away Johnson at all. But that ship has sailed. I continue to say that Doc should try different players in the upcoming games, and that includes Smith, Livingston and also Pat C. We are after all losing game after game with the currently used player composition.

All 3 2 way contract guys would be ahead of those 2 in the pecking order for real minutes.

I'm guessing Green doesn't play. He took a hard shot.

Losing this one with Giannis playing would make me wonder if a “mutual parting of ways” with Doc might actually be possible before the playoffs. This team looked like it had already given up on Friday.

Meh I can’t see them doing it unless there’s an all out mutiny from the team.

Grizzlies give your team coverage because they let go of a coach who had more success.

It’s pride night. Wonder if we’ll play with any.

The Bucks have reached that point where I would be surprised when they beat anyone.

The team is literally not even trying anymore.

Genuinely believe Doc Rivers is the only coach who would choose to put Taurean Prince on Trae Young.
