The Bucks Are A MESS! | Chet Holmgren's Injury

[@Mitch_Feral]

To be fair, there's a reason Giannis doubled Tatum - the C's were hunting Dame every trip down the court, bc he is a bad defender even when he's trying, which is only occasionally. That double is something the Bucks decided to live with years ago, bc historically, Tatum passing was much less dangerous than Tatum driving. That's not really the case anymore, but the Bucks literally fired Griffin for making them play tough defense, and having Lopez do something other than drifting around in space. So they are left with 'get the ball out of Tatum's hands' as the sum of their defensive options, which Tatum is now happy to do, bc even with Brown injured, the C's are a mismatch at every position on the floor 85% of the game.

[@Tonyoung55]

Exactly lol the fact dame was on him was the mistake in the defense. Dame getting caught getting pick on and the corner 3 isn’t the best shot in basketball it’s a layup

[@jwill5658]

There’s probably people who think Channing’s name is really Shannon Frye because of Perk 🤣

[@cvgodd1432]

I remember it like it was yesterday… bucks fans laughing at my Celtics because we got KP and they got Dame. “Jrue won’t be there when you need him the most.” It’s the complete opposite. The bigger the game, the better Jrue plays 😂. Dude just knows when to step in and when to let the Js do their thing, white goes off some games, Pritchard can even go off and they’ll just let the hot man cook. They all play for each other, happy to see each other hit shots and make plays. You can see it’s genuine. No hate in that Locke room and it shows on the court

giannis has been incredible on ball and off ball and leads the league in points. his defense started down but has picked up. the struggles start and stop with damian lillard.

[@heresmyname-jz8ft]

nah man, that doesn't explain why their defence (and offence ) has Alzheimer's levels of cluelessness, they seem like they don't know where/when to be, or they don't care to.

[@andrewharmon4209]

The Bucks are a train wreck. A bunch of flawed players that need Giannis and/or Dame to play out of their mind just to have a chance to win. Luckily they have a spectacular coach that is great at making adjustments to maximize his talent /sarcasm

Dame And Giannis dont fuck with each other, and the locker room knows that and it reflects.

A corner 3 is not the best shot in basketball it’s the layup which Tatum was gonna get on same of left one on one. Wasn’t the bucks a Top 3 team last year lmao Channing a Greek hater talking bout you can’t win with just him mannnnnn one player can’t beat nobody but you talking a shot

[@gamzilo]

@ljy32swag no one said giannis was perfect, but why is he always the first to be mentioned if not for the fact that they are trying to blackmail him into leaving Milwaukee. Dame was the obvious terrible player against Celtics, why wasn't he mentioned at all please explain

[@Mitch_Feral]

@@gamzilo I mean, Giannis is the superstar. He's also the defacto GM - he has earned more scrutiny. He IS the Bucks, and has been for years, so when they are bad, it's reasonable to look to him for the reason. He also only played one side of the floor that game, as has often been the case for the last couple years, and he managed two dirty plays on Brown and Tatum, with the nonsense to Brown really turning the C's around from a focus perspective. Bucks were way out in front, he elbowed Brown, then tried to insult him, and the C's absolutely steamrolled them for the rest of the game. Foolish. And the team cant afford him not being perfect.

[@gamzilo]

@@Mitch_Feral why is no one talking about dame taking terrible shots please, or Bobby portis talking terrible shots and not being in control of his emotions, all I'm saying is these other guys played terrible and no one is talking about them. No one is even going for a dive ball

[@Tonyoung55]

30-13 with griff since then they been while under .500 it’s dame and Dock

[@cvgodd1432]

Facts as a Celtics fan I never felt threatened by the Bucks even when they went up like 15. I just know once them 3s start falling, the defense locks in. Bucks don’t have enough.

[@cameronkelly8258]

That's so true Tatum was passing the ball out of the paint hitting guys for open jumpers all night. Easy passes too all he had to do was look up and they start swinging that ball around it's a wrap.

[@EmperorPenguinn]

The comments blaming dame and giannis lmao giannis been doing everything and dame has been good, yall forgot this team is being coached by salute and glenn rivers 💀💀💀

[@steelyerface21]

The issue is Dame is one of the most overrated players ever, he is washed up, he cant make it work with giannis, thats on him. You put steph on this bucks team and they probably are a top 2 or 3 seed in the east right now. Giannis in Golden State would be awesome, at this point im ready for giannis to move on to a place he can win

[@hawken796]

Steph can’t magically add defence to the team, it’s not as simple as replacing dame

[@edricokojie9695]

Dame is not a superstar. Period.

[@Chessbox09]

[@cameronkelly8258]

Wait Kerr can play with a deep rotation now that Perk is saying he learned in his time at the Olympics, but how. Kerr stated himself it was impossible to play 12 guys in the Olympics. That's why Tatum got benched remember? His bench is deep because those guys are playing well right now and he's able to rely on them.

[@aieshadaniels6104]

Yes he can play 12 to 13 JUST Couldn't Do it for JB's guy JT in the Olympics, never mind this a new chapter and #Boston Celtics are cleaning somethings up to be even better in their second year of BOSTON's #CELTICS SiX!

It’s a good thing your existence has zero value let alone your opinion of anything

[@rodbat9075]

Channing just dislikes Giannis. Mainly cause of jealousy, so you have to take his words with a grain of salt. RJ asked him “If the Bucks were playing above average or decent, what record would they have?” This fool said 3-7 which would be one more win than they currently have. It just goes to say he’s really a clown who is pessimistic.

[@williamphillips3035]

Giannis is a 2 time MVP with a championship and a Finals MVP; either he's the leader or not.

[@mikeydagoat3527]

Do you watch the games? Giannis gets everyone out of rhythm when he has the ball he goes 1on1 while everyone sits around watching and when he does score its only 2 and he misses damn near every free throw

[@gamzilo]

@@mikeydagoat3527 stop talking nonsense, than man has won a championship, all they guys with so called good game hasn't even gotten close which means he is doing something right. Appreciate greatness. Imagine giannis didn't play the last game we could have lost by 50, dame shot 1 for 8 from 3 and 4-15fg wtf is that and y'all always find a way to blame giannis. Gtfoh

[@Jsch23]

channing was about to say something really interesting about giannis not being to create wins on his own anymore and of course allie cut him off. part of being a good podcast host is to not bury the lead. you can tell by the points channing makes and the things he says that he's the smartest on the pod when it comes to analyzing the league. richard a close second. perk...well he's sensationalistic, but he's kendrick perkins he's geniunely had some of the stupidest sports takes by a national analyst within the last 5 years besides gilbert arenas. just cause you've played nba ball doesnt mean you know nba ball at a deep and intelligent level. proof of that statement is perkins and arenas. meanwhile guys like zach lowe and ben taylor are basketball geniuses and have never played pro ball.

[@JovicaMilutinovic]

The NBA is designed in such a way that players play 65-82 games in order to have as many good duels as possible that people all over the world will look forward to with pleasure. Embiid's policy is that he misses the first 10-12 games, then he will be suspend me for another 3, then I will not play back to back games(, and he will miss at least another 20-35 games in the regular season. If only David Robinson, Patrik Ewing, Hakim and the other guys who always played 70+ games, except for a serious injury, would hear him. How from season to season he just cries like a little child and behaves like that, firstly, he complains that he doesn't have quality teammates and another superstar next to him to win the title - he had Harden and several other solid players and everyone played well except him. He promised France that he would play in the Olympics for them just one year before getting his American passport and changed the story, that more people hate him, actually despise him than they do. And if France had not given him a passport at that moment, he would never have played in the NBA with a Cameroonian passport. His flow thinks that he will just jump in and that with Maxi and PG, he will beat all the teams just like that, completely unplayed where you won't know who will have the ball in their hands more and finish the games, especially the clutch ones.76 should turn in a completely different direction and promote Maxi to the first star, and if these two don't want to follow such a series of events, Philadelphia can use their trade to arm themselves and release the salary cap. I would trade both Embido and PG one in February and the other at the end of the season, so 76 will only be able to make a young and very strong team because this really resembles a nursing home more than a basketball team. Jokic is the best player in the world and he is alone in that category where Luca, Tatum, SGA are a class below him and with their games they are increasingly distancing themselves from Jokic instead of the opposite. What a talent, it's really a shame that there isn't another all-star player in Denver who would have won at least two rings in 3 years with Joker on the floor.

[@ohsosantana93]

Excuses out the ass for Jokic

[@Jsch23]

how so, excuses for what? the nuggets are 7-3 right now and jokic is putting up historic numbers with aaron gordon and jamal murray injured, if jamal is in the game he's been very inconsistent and not playing up to his max contract. if you actually watch the games you'd know that jokic produces the highest rated offense in the league when he's on the floor thats also by the numbers, he makes everyone around him better and is an above average defender. jokic is a top 10 player of all time already and all its gonna take is some more accolades throughout his career to make him top 5.
