This is proof that we should trade all three because their value will never be higher.

This version of Gallo is the definition of the old dude in the rec league who hits shots, makes great passes and annoys people on defense despite barely being able to move.

I love it.

Some people would refer to this as the AussieBuck stage of his career.

A month we would have played with our food for 3.5 quarters and eeked out a frustrating 6 point win. Last night, down a bucket or two early simply because couldn't make an open shot, you could just feel it was a matter of time before boot lodged on throat. All because of our defense. Thank you for saving the season, Doc.

Let's not revise history too much. The AG Bucks beat Charlotte by 31.

They also almost lost to the Pistons multiple times and lost by a million at home to the Raptors.

Didn't catch the game but watching extended highlights it's clear that there is some structure and communication in place, especially defensively.

That baseline spin and yam on what's-his-face by Freak was the cherry on top.

That’s legit one of Hakeem’s old moves. Giannis clearly put in a TON of work in the offseason on his inside game.

The rampant Bobby hate has tempered down considerably.

He is nothing if not a vibes barometer.

100%!!

Remember just before Grief got canned, Bobby was getting into kinda meaningless scraps every game? Clearly was lashing out about feeling powerless on how **** their coach was.

Bobby also tried to fight the entire Bucks team after the IST loss to the Pacers and was helping Giannis draw up the wall of plays when Giannis took over as head coach for a bit.

Griffin was obviously inept but the thought of bobby, thanasis, and Giannis designing offensive plays is pretty funny.

He's become more decisive and fluid operating in the block and on the wings when posting. He usually tends to go baseline, he just needs to fine-tune his little jump hook so it gives him the drive middle option.

It would have been accurate to point out actual wins and losses. It was revisionist history to say that without Rivers' coaching the Bucks "would have played with our food for 3.5 quarters and eeked out a frustrating 6 point win", when Griffin coached the Bucks to a 30+ point win over the Hornets earlier this season. The fact is that Rivers coaching did not result in a significantly wider margin of victory over the Hornets than what Griffin accomplished. Stating or implying otherwise is inaccurate and serves no purpose.

It would also be revisionist history to say that the Bucks "lost by a million at home to the Raptors". The Bucks got embarrassingly drilled in Toronto early this season. The last time the Bucks lost to the Raptors at home by any margin, was in January 2022. That month they lost at home to the Pistons, followed the next night by a home loss to the Raptors, followed ten days later by another home loss to the Raptors. All that happened while the Bucks were defending NBA Champions and were coached by Budenholzer.

The 30-13 Adrian Griffin Bucks were depressing enough. We don't need to overstate how bad those 43 games were with false statements to appreciate the improvements brought by the coaching change to Doc.
