This is 2002 all over again for those of us old enough to remember.

I could see him having a sit down with Chris Haynes and saying, "I gave it a chance and it just didn't work out." Honestly, might be best for both sides, but at this point, I'm just waiting for the playoffs. No sense in getting mad about this crap now when we'll probably be mad about it in a few weeks.

We have count them 0 players that can get to the rim other than Giannis. How is that possible?

I think only one player on the roster has been clearly positive on the season and that's AJ Green. Beasley has been a great value at his contract but is regressing to the mean recently. Giannis has been good and efficient but I don't see the galvanizing impact that I've grown accustomed to. Dame, Brook, Khris due to injuries/age/personal reasons have all been disappointments.

I'm typically an optimist and I guess it's possible we are saving any effort for the playoffs but this has been absolutely gross

I would have loved to see what we could have done with Jrue Grayson and whatever we could have added via 29 1st and 28 and 30 swaps.

Has any team in recent NBA history ever done as much damage to their franchise through coaching decisions as the Bucks have?

First they started with an awful hire in Griffin. Then they moved on mid-season for an even worse hire in Doc. Now they need to move on again but at this point it isn't even a remotely attractive spot for a candidate because it's so unstable.

Bucks aren’t paying 4 coaches at once, Doc is stuck here
Bucks tricked me into being a diehard in 2001, LeBron is the 2nd best player ever, and pizza is awesome.

Yeah, we're stuck unfortunately. Unless by some miracle Doc decides to go back to ESPN after realizing this is too hard again. Maybe bring a coach back on a small deal like Charles Lee. He knows Giannis, mentored under Bud and now has some experience in another system. Griff needed to go, but pivoting to Doc was just silly.

Quick reminder this is a raptors team on a 15 game losing streak and lost their last to the Timberpups by 48.

This team is taking the Mickey.

I am convinced the team has quit.

The reason why is debatable, but this team has definitely quit. This isn't just an old team or a bored team just trying to get on to the playoffs.

They might pay an "intern" coach.

You aren't getting the same package you got dame for. It's going to be a franchise shacking trade. I think if the Dame thing doesn't work it's the end of legit contender status. Giannis turning 30 this year. Middleton unable to play even half a season(turning 33 this year), then a bunch of old/nothing burger assets.

Imo the time to take a step back was last season. I think it's a year too late now.
