I think he is back game 3, being upgraded from doubtful to GTD said a lot but no one cared to mention it

If Giannis can’t go put Livingston on Siakam. He’s young athletic with good strength. He has potential to at least bother him. So sad that we are at the point of Pascal **** Siakam destroying us. How the mighty have fallen.

The little stretch of nothing from Crowder killed any chance of that one but it felt like they had our number for most of the night. The front court match up was a complete mismatch and I'm not sure how we can deal with that without Giannis.

Wasted an even better game from Dame.

Bucks have desperately needed an athletic defensive combo forward for years and years. It kills them in the playoffs every year, but Horst doesn't even attempt to find one.

Bucks don't have anyone who can slightly slow Siakam.

We have one guy that can beat their man off the dribble.

Hopefully Giannis can go on Friday.

Really makes you wonder wtf Horst was thinking when building this roster. The doubling and tripling down on older vets just about knee caps our potential from the jump. Just seeing AJJ running out there at the end was a stark contrast to the grandpas that took the floor tonight.

Some combination of Jackson Jr., Thanasis and/or Livingston need some minutes going forward imo. Badly need some hustle, speed and defense out there against Siakam and the pace of this Pacers team.

That defense was embarrassing.

This team badly needs Giannis to be healthy. It hurt us badly last year vs the Heat and could easily sink our chances again this year.

On paper maybe a team with mega star Dame and multiple time all star Khris should be able to get through the first round, but Dame doesn't look like he can carry a team right now and Khris has never been that guy.

I love Bobby, but he was bad, he was in his own head or something. Just so below par.

Bobby turned his season around quickly once Griffin got ****, but the Grant Williams plus another asset or two for Bobby trade may have done the trick.

Rilamann must be fun at parties.

I can promise you I am more fun at parties than the Bucks are in playoff games.

And Beasley, and Portis, and AJ Green except for one play

Basically boils down to Khris and Bobby just weren't good enough. We need more from them without Giannis.

Bucks got abused inside portis has to be the softest big ive seen doesnt help that indy has 15 more fgs than the bucks

Everyone’s agenda was supported tonight.

We're so ****.

I'm more upset about the way we lost than the loss itself. We fought for three quarters to be in a spot to try and pull out another home win. Four point game and we had the ball with about 11 min left and instead of meeting that moment in a playoff environment we completely fell apart in every facet. That's not really acceptable.

I think this is actually the perfect series for him with how Indy wants to get out in transition AND hound Dame on the other end. Having a credible ball handler at wing who can also get back on defense would be huge.

Do I get priority on starting the fire John Horst thread if they lose in the first round
