Giannis should have had 17 assists tonight. So many open shots missed.

People should be more upset with Doc than Beasley, Doc decided to throw him in the fire when he is having one of the worst nights of his life. Super concerning he closed with Beas over Green, bad omen for the playoffs. You need to choose the hot hand in our situation, that was obvious what was gonna happen when Beas came back in the game

Losses like this are just demoralizing.

The hot hand being the one that went 2-4 is all you need to say about this game.

That was one of the worst shooting displays I've ever seen. Nearly every missed shot was wide open. Normal shooting night and this is a 20 point win, I'm pretty appalled with Doc though. This game was lost by him

There was a moment in the fourth where our rotation was Khris (2024 version), Pat, Bobby, Jae and Green.

And I thought to myself that’s probably a bottom three rotation in the league.

Thinking beyond this bad loss, how do they convince Giannis he needs a new/younger supporting cast for the back-half of his career and have that be in Milwaukee? I don't see how they can roll out with the nursing home again next year, but with Doc still under contract, I'm sure that's what we'll get.

And that was our best rotation of the night.

I was one of the biggest optimists on here. But the Bucks have beaten the optimism out of me. I have zero expectation of them getting anywhere in the playoffs. We're too old & Doc hasn't shown me he can improve the team. Playing AJ Green more would help, but it won't be enough.

When the team is this disinterested, stop rotating the disinterested guys. Bring in someone outside the rotatioan for a spark.

It will get lost in the turmoil how bad the Bucks shot tonight, I'm sure most who watched the game will vouch that those were WIDE OPEN looks and they just kept clanking. Bad juju around this team on the road this season

Also they just don't get back on defense, yes they're old but it's a coaching issue first and foremost. Bud was the opposite end of the spectrum with this and it works 100% better

They're just not that good. The starters point differential stuff loses merit when literally everyone else is awful except AJ Green.

Also, those lineup #s are heavily skewed but the other worldly play of a single player on our team.

I'll still choose to believe this team does have another gear in the playoffs (all vets that have little reason to exude 100% effort in these games) and I think Giannis is the best player in the world, so they have a chance for sure. Thinking it's over is loser **** tbh, Heat were play-in last year and had a loss like this every week. Basketball is a strange game. Be mad though, this was gross.
