Mauro Pedrosa 1,031 Report post Posted April 27, 2023 Milwaukee was on its way to lose game 1 even with Giannis, and then lost 2 more with Giannis playing the entire game. No excuses, Bud probably gets fired. Bucks vs Heat turning out to be quite a rivalry. Giannis shooting like 17/19 FT in a clutch Finals game and then 10/23 in this do or die game just shows how chaotic this sport is Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mauro Pedrosa 1,031 Report post Posted April 27, 2023 Giannis is a great guy and maybe the easiest one to root for in all sports. Even if I might disagree with his take, the way he handles this question is super respectful. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Luke_FfS 248 Report post Posted April 27, 2023 So we can take Bud? :P It's hard cause Miami is our rival team, but how many times I've been envious of their result, and about what their managament is always able to build with little known players out of nowhere..

Either their scouting team is ridiculously good, or (as a Magic/Celtics fan it hurts to say this) Pat Riley is a really good GM. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
All Eyes On Me 1,210 Report post Posted April 27, 2023 It’s not that the Bucks lost but how they lost that makes Bud a goner. Awful game management and time out usage. Down 2 in OT and Grayson Allen dribbles the freakin clock out. Nurse to the Bucks. we should all put $$$ on it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I’ve never been a Bud fan especially on offense. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This!!!! All these years after LeBron left. They have made some good decisions and some bad ones. However they do 3 things we didn't do for years. They try to move on from mistakes as quickly as possible. They get shooters,even if those guys are undrafted. They make adjustments,Duncan isn't hitting someone else goes in.Player can't guard a traffic cone? Gone. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hootie249 293 Report post Posted April 28, 2023 Bane would have been a good get, but they will match whatever. Brogdon has been sneaky good in Boston, wish we could have gotten him. Maybe they feel the money crunch re-signing Brown and try to slim down the payroll, but i can't see them not running this same team back one more year. Edit. After thinking about it a team like Boston could potentially want to add youth and save money. Let's say they love a player we could get or do get at 11. We are one of a handful of teams that can absorb salary without sending back matching salary, so rookie for vet is possible for us and makes sense. In fact i would guess they trade one of White or Brogdon this summer to save money. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Soul Bro 1,419 Report post Posted April 28, 2023 Unless the Grizz plan to carry a huge payroll, I’m not sold they’ll give Bane the max. They’ve already committed crazy money to Morant and JJJ. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's why I always point out the (very) long "evaluation" time that this FO gave to the Vuc-Fournier core, and the inactivity that they sometimes show in key dates. Maybe they'll be right and probably I'm wrong, but I would definitely love to see more activity in all fronts, coaches included. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
