Defcon 2 at the moment
Thanasis played actually pretty good. We actually need younger players, and I do not believe I am saying that.. Watched 2 full games, against Nets and Magic.. We are winning so difficult.. I hate watching the Celtics destroy teams.. Are we behind? Will we play defence in the playoffs?
I feel a big trade gonna happen
Coach is trash … no way we have a rookie coach for vet team. And implementing that defensive system of blitzing on older legs? Only thing that holds the bucks last was injuries…terry stots may have seen this coming and said im out… but again it’s early. But the coach is trash
There is no way I'm worried about the Bucks as long as Camille is covering them….she our gud luck charm….plus her takes is absolutely amazing 💪🏿💪🏿🔥🔥🔥
I think honestly it's what we should have expected. Think people underestimated that Bucks were previously maximized for regular season and with changes are now kinda an ok regular season team. Really the hope with coach and Dame change is that Buck win the 4th quarter in the playoffs. Think there's some promise of that with Sixers, Pistons games. So we'll see
She don’t what she talking about we still gone get cook
Man try next year
I feel like it's clear at this point that the system or some key part of it is not being clearly communicated. There are just so many instances where guys are just pointing at each other while someone takes an open shot. We've got journeymen that have played for several teams like Cam and Malik who seem to be struggling to figure it out too.
Beasley is Missing in action so far, Pat slowing down year after year. Portis, Payne, Marjon and Crowder are the basically it from the bench. Dame Time on hold and Middleton is Kashless…The Freak and Brook are battling through everything but not enough. Team is not responding to new coach, looking lost and slow.
I checked YouTube for this pod like 80 times.
I badly needed a conversation about this.
Appreciated the encouraging narrative.
100% NO this roster is not conducive to griffins proposed system: he needs to drop the rigidity cause this is what he has. Time for him to adapt and develop a scheme that is complimentary for the personnel
Those young kids gotta play man – the energy they bring is what is required also Giannis has been bad defensively and his passing is off – he at one point became so good with passes I see regression
I sound like Frank and I live Giannis
I'm a little worried, although it's more so about the two year plus trend of Giannis lead teams being mostly mediocre at best, uncompetitive as a baseline. Two years of shying away from physicality, backing down from challenges. Really a total disregard for playing winning basketball at every level.
I’m not sure Brooke fits what AG wants to do on defense, do you thing he could be a trade candidate to acquire players that better fit? PC and Beasley are a little repetitive as well, PC a little better defensively and Beasley is a better shooter don’t need both in my opinion.
we are not a championship caliber team and i blame giannis and dame. they gotta step it up . i think if coach bud would’ve had us 9 nd 0
Some of y’all are the most unreasonable fans we legit are 9 games into the season with a rookie coach and new players & I’m sure they have a new system not only that Middleton has been on minutes restriction. Then dame got traded late so he wasn’t even playing summer ball with the bucks that much because he was waiting to see what team he would be traded to. You would think we only won 2 games how much y’all been crying.
I think that we should be worried if this problem still exists after the all star break. If it does then we really should be worries. but i think that by then they'll make maybe a trade for a better defender or they will figure everything out
This is more about coaching than it is about the players. What is the offensive philosophy of this team. What is the culture at this time. Griff seems to moving like someone who wants to be in favor of his players than making tough decisions. The loss of Terry stotts is proven more costly than not.
