  1. Giannis gets forced to take those mid ranges because he drives kicks all for 90% of the team to throw up bricks. Giannis is absolutely not the issue with this team right now.

  2. They're old legs are too tired in the 2nd half….Brook and Dame cannot sustain their 1st half energy…Dame has been working harder on D, tiring out and throwing up airballs the past few games(age matters). Put the young guns in longer in the 1st half– their intensity is really great to watch.

  3. In thebeginning of the game Giannis braught the ball up court and the Bucks offense was very good and there was a lot of energy, without Dame doing gmuch. When Dame brought the ball upcourt, in such a monotomous way the offense became stagnant

  4. Brook is cooked, dame defense is the worst, prince play 35 minutes a game for whatever reason, Bobby can’t grab a rebound in traffic and no defense, Jackson should play he makes one mistake and benched, aj green should play 30 minutes, no Pat minutes needed, Rollins should be back up point let’s see what Gary Trent can do and put in Tyler see what he can do

  5. I dont know how the coaching staff will solve Dame's defensive problems… The Celtics kept hunting him in the 2nd half and the Bucks have no idea how to hide him

  6. no shot at competing with the best in either conference. This team is just a fantasy bball performer. This is not a team in any sense of the word. Such a poorly constructed group.

  7. The Buck’s offensive movement the last quarter was abysmal. I get it that the Celtics stepped up their defense but the Bucks were deers in the headlights offensively. You have to look at coaching.

  8. Frank is right, rhe offense is what has been the problem. The defense hasn't been great, but it's been good enough to get wins with. The offense is why we aren't getting wins tho

  9. With all the talent bucks have there is no way in hell you should be 2-8 Doc is the issue although in a Celtic fan I do see you guys issue and can’t help but feel sorry you have such in incompetent coach!! You all deserve better!!!

  10. I think it is time to just admit that Dame is just not the Dame we were hoping for. He is not clutch and too inconsistent. When he is on, boy is he on. But those times are far and few between. It's time to admit we gave up too much for him. But I understand why the Bucks went and got him. Also, I'm the biggest Giannis fan. But extending your hand to a player than pulling it back when he reaches to fist pump you. Not cool. I didn't think that was a good look for Giannis. Especially after you just elbowed him and fouled him. You reach out to fist pump or shake his hand to say, my bad, I got you. Then you pulled back your hand as though to say haha. Not a good look for Giannis.
