Would think Doc at least sits in the coaches chair tonight and lets Prunity mostly run the show.

He's been watching the team & consulting Griff. Wouldn't be surprised if he's running the show tonight.

Hire isn't even official yet, so I highly doubt he's on the bench tonight. Let's all just enjoy the #PruntyPower experience one last time.

Convo with my mom last night

CT: The Bucks fired Griffin.
M: Oooh, you were right. Who'd they get?
CT: I don't know, they'll just have one of the assistants coach for a while I guess.
M: Which one?
CT: Do you know Joe Prunty?
M: He's the one with the really good hair, right?
CT: He DOES have good hair.

Must win. Schedule Loss.

Cleveland has been jostling with the Knicks for the 4th seed. Both teams were 18-15 on New Year's Day and have been the hottest teams in the East in January. A Bucks win would be a good win, but with the head coach turnover, no result will be much of a statement on the rest of the season. With post season success the (almost) only thing that matters, judgement will be reserved for now, no matter the result.

My mom texted: "(he's the one with the white hair and has been with the Bucks for ages)"

Could be a weird game. New coach bounce is possible, but curious if they immediately dump Griff's scheme or at least pull back and awful high pressure.

100% reading this as a weird, weird power move by Prunty. "Eat the last donut in the breakroom will you, you little punk?"

The question is, which of the following will it be?

Joe Prunty: Die Harder

Almost 4 PM, 3 hours to tip, who's coaching?

Feels like Prunty is coach every 3 years or so for random periods of time. Like a substitute teacher or something.

1 hour to the press conference, right? I assume Prunty is still coaching the game despite Doc being confirmed. Gotta give him a day to meet with the team, etc. I would think
