Once he traded Holiday for Dame and said the “rich get richer.” 6. Once he said that players aren’t loyal if they leave the team that they were drafted on, never mind the fact that most teams run ⭐️ players in to the ground 7.

[@jacobkadar4519]

1. Nepotism is all around the league today Giannis is far from the only example, not gonna defend nepotism but lets not act like Giannis is the only one guilty of it. 2. They saw Giannis shooting there and put a ladder up anyways. That was done intentionally to mess with him you can't convince me otherwise. 3. While I think he over reacted 100%, he scored 64 points and they were trying to make sure he cant have the game ball because some kid in his rookie season scored 2 pts. 4. Did he get Griffin and Kidd fired? Yeah, probably. But Budenholzer was literally the best thing to happen to Giannis, he didn't get him fired. That would be the front office being upset that they lost in the 1st round as contenders. They didn't care that the Bucks were all injured and Bud was dealing with a death in the family, it's still his fault. That's the nature of being a coach in the NBA sadly. 5. There's 0 evidence that they traded Jrue BECAUSE Giannis demanded them to do so, more so they traded Jrue in the fear that they need to get more scoring on that team OR Giannis will leave. Thats a completely different scenario. 6. I mean that's a fact, when he said that, it was during the time when super teams were the ways to win championships, in direct contrast to today where we see a lot of parody in the league because a distinct lack of said super teams. Even the current Celtics team aren't a traditional "super team". 7. Giannis hasn't added anything to his game except he's gotten better at what he does do very well. All his metrics have been going up. The Bucks may have been working to give Giannis a lot of pieces, but the past couple years they've had serious injury issues and this year a serious coaching issue. Do I think they should of fired Griffin? I don't know, I would imagine it's for a reason you and me know nothing about, because it clearly wasn't because of his performance. Saw a lot of articles about Griffin's attitude in the locker room not just towards players but specifically towards other staff members for the team.

@@noahisuku5338it’s not a dumb take. Giannis fanboys are just delusional.

[@hoticeentertainment]

The highlights of the Bucks defense just shows the lack of communication between the players! Its almost like they haven't done any defensive reps during practice.

[@pacingone]

It's pretty damning that this late in his career the Greek freak still can't post up... It would make it so much easier to stop teams from building a wall against him in the playoffs.. especially since he's not a good shooter

[@grasz]

Seeing THAT much confusion plays from bucks, it surprises me how close the game still was at the end.

[@dis_john]

1:13 whoa, he said this without an accent. Caught me off guard

[@Deathstroke24120]

I don't understand why Doc Rivers keeps getting a coaching job in the NBA when we see all his previous teams...

[@greyyb8860]

Giannis, Brook n Bobby are just plain bad perimeter defenders against shooters, the team is more worried about 2 pointers than 3’s

[@frankenviews4069]

Maybe Doc is The Process. Hiring him is a way of tanking without getting in trouble with the league administration. Giannis, Dame and Cooper Flag is a Big 3.

[@hugobot20]

Sorry coach, but I gotta disagree that that's a "clear flagrant foul" on giannis at 1:55 . Yes tatum lands on his foot, but giannis's foot is well behind the 3 point line, not anywhere near to where jayson took off from. I get you have to give the shooter landing space, but how far does it go before you can't even contest a jump shot. His leg is not sticking out at all, much different to what we used to see with Zaza Pachulia, where his leg would be pushed out far from his body and under the defenders feet.

[@MrWilson-zx9ix]

The Tatum sprain is concerning. That needs to be banned. The nets example is not Giannis being dirty. It’s rebounding.

[@atenistaako9672]

The Bucks raised this child, they are to blame

[@SchulzEricT]

To be fair to Doc, who has it harder than Doc, man? He's always put in a position to fail with bad teams or tough situations, if not both. It's simply not fair to expect him to succeed when he's always being set up to fail. Maybe next team that gives him a coaching job will have a winning roster and won't ask him to take over midseason before a brutal stretch.

[@joecesh]

13:49 Just happy Boston have Jrue now. He always plays best at crunch time.

[@virgil4221]

with dumb and dumber on the bench i'm not surprised they're struggling this much

[@ProfessorAirball]

It's Doc Rivers. Giannis and Dame have issues, but rarely have I seen a championship caliber team fail basic defensive principles and discombobulated offensive sets. Start a petition, open a lawsuit, protest in the streets-Doc gotta go

[@mr.t-rex3113]

Not resigning jrue holiday will haunt the bucks forever

[@joeingles7052]

Excellent breakdown as always but man isn't this what watching film is for? The entire coaching staff not just Doc should be able to see every single mistake that coach Nick explained, so why arent they doing this too????

[@IamMichaelFu]

That's the same shit that made me pretty much think Dwight Howard was a douche. Two things can be true - you might be a decent person and happen to like to joke around like Howard claimed, and when you do stupid things, it says a lot about parts of your character, or lack there of. Don't cry about people hating on you when you do things like that. Suck it up and start growing up, and show people you're improving as a human being.

[@st.elmogeorge5403]

Giannis wears the hat of a child…..”Broadwalk Empire”

[@lecook3917]

This all seems normal. If you replace Jrue Holiday with Doc Rivers, this is what you expect.

[@neonpop80]

Giannis’s elbow antics are surprising and disgusting. This needs a suspension in my eyes. I don’t know why it’s overlooked when other fouls are over touches

[@BruvahSulaiman]

The Bucks are awful and Dame never asked to be there. But he's getting all the blame. Giannis was the one pressuring the front office to make a move. The front office are the ones who gave up their defense for a star who they already knew was a defensive liability.

[@hendriancheng1743]

To be fair, Dame gives effort on D, it was the defensive sets that is the problem. His scoring efficiency were also affected with their offensive sets. Not a fan of Dam, but gotta feel bad for him being stuck to a team he didn't ask for. Imagine him under Spo with Bam and Butler, 2 defensive specialists that does good team movement and can take over.

[@MaoZedongWasRightAllAlong-i9f]

If Dame were om the Heat.... sheesh... Boston may not have made it to the second round last year.

[@lazzi2462]

It's been stated over and over again that Dame "Okay'd" the trade. Go back & watch Dame interviews, he's been saying for years that the player he'd want to play with the most is Giannis. Dame, Pat Connaughton, & Giannis even had a private group chat together, that started years before this trade even happened.

[@BruvahSulaiman]

@lazzi2462 Wanted to play with Giannis in Portland. Not in Milwaukee, under Doc "The Disaster" Rivers.

[@jordanscott7247]

I think the NBA should start cracking down on Gianna’s and give him a flagrant

[@natekong3596]

No team can overcome having Doc & Ham Sandwich as a coach.

[@stefonshelton1800]

I wish bucks take kuminfa, moody, draymond for giannis, actually no cause he don't like setting pick and that defeats a one two curry punch happening, also dray defense is just tough to lose

[@cadmielmutemba44]

Bro, just run Horns action with Brook popping, Giannis diving & Dame making the read. Have T.P & Bobby in the corners.

[@chasepalumbo2929]

This is amazing analysis as usual

[@AIRiddleRoom]

The Bucks are just panicking about losing Giannis and the more they panic the worst it gets. They fired a new coach that was over .500 , they fired their championship winning point guard, they never got a replacement for always hurt Middleton ... Every thing they could do wrong they did wrong and then you go get rid of his brother but dont make the team any better ..in fact it got worse lol

[@michaelhession2105]

I love how everyone says that Doc Rivers is the reason why they are so bad, when they all forget that the Bucks have the worst owner in all of sports right now, who by the way hasn't learned a damn thing from the Deshaun Watson Trade and Hue Jackson.

[@youngsvph7573]

the bucks owner also owns Aston Villa. which is currently one of the best soccer teams in all of europe right now.

[@Joeman_Joeman]

Our season is so finished 😢 the window is closed

[@PeteFish-b1f]

If Giannis hits 16 fts a game. Hell get more wins, banners period. If he learns mid range , no team can stop Giannis

[@dealpha3698]

Giannis is now in frustration mode imagine having Dame along with Doc and still sucks, He might force his way out.

[@da11king]

I like the way the video portrays Doc as the evil master in the end lol I know my Bucks are not a championship team. It's due to management, personnel, and coaching.

[@AIRiddleRoom]

I'd love to see Giannis in Charlotte with LaMelo ...will never happen but that combo would be crazy

[@fox9769]

Giannis is such a reckless player.

[@penkima4923]

That's because he hasn't been tried on the court of justice. He has a long track record of physical assaults on the basketball court, and he should be facing jail time.

[@enzodapan5016]

Coach Mike and Jrue are having a good time in Phoenix and Boston lmao.

Doc Rivers' coaching has turned Giannis into a goon

Giannis doesnt deserve ring since he injured KYrie
