God is Great.

All the Time.

This some cockblocking shyt Woj does when he doesn’t have the scoop first. He’ll come out with a tweet denying the report on some “they have yet to speak” “no agreement has been reached”

Then turn around and officially announce it himself. He did the same thing with Harden to the Sixers undercutting Windhorst in the process.

That’s a dirty diabolical game he plays and I’m starting to wonder if he has the power to single-handedly hold up team announcements just so he can officially announce it himself.

They’re 30-13 but it’s fools gold, you could still tell it’s been a struggle figuring things out…Apparently AG was more of a authoritative my way or the highway coach and it turned players off, from rumors it started when he forced Stotts out b4 the season started who knew Dames game and how to integrate it..Hate to see a brotha get pushed out but it’s still a game…Its one thing if the FO don’t fw you but losing a locker room as a coach period is not a good look at all..

Sounds like Stotts was the problem to be honest. You can't do shyt like this to a head coach when you're an assistant.


According to sources who witnessed Tuesday’s events, Griffin wrapped up the shootaround and called the team together for a huddle to close out the day and let the players get to post-shootaround shooting drills. During that huddle, Griffin informed the coaches that he wanted to have a separate huddle with them once they wrapped things up.

Nothing wrong with this IMO.

When the players and coaches broke the huddle, Stotts went in the opposite direction of the coaches’ huddle and instead started walking toward players to discuss the offense. As Stotts attempted to start a conversation with Lillard and Giannis Antetokounmpo, Griffin called to Stotts to join the coaching huddle. When Stotts asked for some time with the players, Griffin yelled for Stotts to join the coaches’ huddle. The incident occurred in front of the entire team, those sources said.

This above to me is the inexcusable part about what Stotts did. You see how it mentioned he attempted to start a conversation. Basically sounds like he did that with deliberate intent to bring Giannis and Lillard into the situation so that Griffin would back off. That's not cool.

While brief, the interaction highlighted the underlying complexity of the relationship between Griffin and Stotts in their first year together in Milwaukee. Around the situation on Thursday, there were two perspectives surrounding Stotts’ resignation: His potential difficulty adapting to a bench role under Griffin after more than a decade as a head coach, and the other being a certain treatment and level of respect that needed to be shown to someone with Stotts’ pedigree.

Doc is Doc

But the heat is on Giannis and Management

Not as much as you would think.

If Giannis left Milwaukee, we wouldn't be upset about it. It would suck for sure, but at the same time we drafted Giannis... we moved out of the Bradley Center... we won a Championship with Giannis/Middleton despite constant murmers of him leaving.

So now its just about how much legacy can Giannis build before he retires.

But how many black coaches have gotten multiple opportunities? it's not many. Doc and Monty have. Ime has that finals appearance under his belt. Monty- Detroit might be his last stop for a minute if he gets fired from Detroit. Look at Stephen Silas too. He was dealt a bad hand and is paying for it.
The last coach to go through something like this was a white man that Lebron sent to another continent.
Any coaches get multiple chances, you’re just focused on trying to make a point which doesn’t exist in the NBA. Trying to bring in NFL shyt.

Giannis right now has the second best record in the NBA

if his career stopped right now, he is in the Hall and has a statue outside the arena.

I'd say its no real pressure.


GIANNIS IS A 2X MVP
DPOY
FMVP

THERES NO HEAT ON HIM AT ALL.
