The Milwaukee Bucks are the dumbest team in the postseason

[SchoolboyC]

Yeah, 2-2 at worst. Bud is buns and hopefully the front office sees it.

Problem is who would you replace him with?

If he were to get fired probably Nurse

 

[MJ Truth]

Read, breh. I said not counting the games when they were resting everyone. The last two games of the season they started Myers Leonard, MarJon Bauchamp, Jae Crowder, Jevon Carter, and Bobby Portis. Why the fukk would you count those games when talking about how good the starters are?

They were 11-6 in the games they were actually trying to win. And hell, Jrue/Middleton didn't even play in 3 of their other losses either.

So this season in games without Giannis where even at least ONE of Jrue or Middleton plays, the Bucks were 11-3. Only losses were on the road to Miami, road to Warriors, and road to Cavs, and Middleton didn't play in any of those.





They beat OKC twice, Utah, Toronto, Phoenix with no KD, and Nets after the trade. No those aren't huge wins, but those are all pretty much .500 teams. If you go 11-3 against lottery teams, you're not a lottery team.

You’re making the assumption they’d be able to keep that pace up over a full season while going into it knowing they don’t have a Giannis on the roster. They’d be a play-in team at best, Hawks level squad.

the jackin of contested 3s while down is just confusing as fukk with the Bucks. Bud stay allowing that shyt. I do not get it. He was a KD toenail away from being fired. Giannis the only reason he still has a job.

jrue and khris have atrocious shot selection

 

[Professor Emeritus]

Vanderbilt is a -14 on/off in the playoffs
Beasley is a -15 on/off in the playoffs
Walker ain't getting any burn now because he was a -11 on/off in the regular season.

These are the guys that Bonk thinks the Bucks need over Jrue, Middleton, Grayson, and Ingles.

Vanderbilt is 6’8 & can play as a wing.

Vanderbilt has only made 32 three-pointers total in his five-year career, at a 28% clip. How the fukk is he "3-and-D" if he doesn't shoot threes?

Walker IV, Vanderbilt, Beasley & Reaves are better & more athletic than anything on the Bucks.

Walker is a horrible, useless defender, Vanderbilt doesn't shoot threes at all, and Beasley is bad at everything.

I don't think you know what "3-and-D" means.

Lakers dumped Lopez for a bag of chips at age 31. What makes you think he’ll start for them now at age 36?

They were trying to clear roster for another max contract, and everyone on the Laker boards repeatedly say it was an idiot decision.

 

[Raquinotj]

These bums gave away 5 picks for Jae Crowder. To be a Tatum and Brown stopper.

-/+ is the most overrated stat in basketball. It doesn’t really tell you anything than make on defense like Jokic become one of the GOAT players in NBA history.

Vanderbilt shot 2-5 yesterday in Lakers’ win from 3. Jrue shot 2-11, & Pat shot 1-6 on wide open 3s. I’ll take that over both. And he’s a GREAT defender - something Pat isn’t.

Walker over Pat. Beasley over Grayson. Reaves over Ingles. And Vanderbilt over Crowther. Rui over everyone. These are the wings on the Lakers vs Bucks. Why would anyone want to compare the depth of the two teams when it comes to wing players?

BTW, I was alluding to Bucks’ role players on the wing. Jrue & Middleton are max players.

I forgot to add Rui. That’s the guy I was expecting Bucks to trade for before they let the Lakers steal him.

It doesn’t negate my point. If he were that valuable to them, they wouldn’t have traded him for a bag of chips at 31.

And why are you avoiding my point about Jrue shooting just slightly over 30% from the field in the playoffs in 3 seasons? Russell Westbrook at his worst was way better than this.

 

[Bonk]

Worst trade in history.

At least Nwora is a hooper & can get buckets despite his low basketball IQ.

Horst is just as retarded as Bud & they might be racist.

The Jrue trade never made any sense whatsoever with all the picks they gave up. Then they traded for Grayson who they didn’t need when they have Pat. Traded Donte for an Ibaka they never played. Then signed an Ingles that’s 36 with torn Achilles. Signed a neo-Nazi & finished off with a washed up Dragic.

And the team just needed a good PG that can play half court offense & 2 solid athletic 3 & D guys. Same problem for 5years yet they didn’t fix a thing despite wasting 12 draft picks (about 5 firsts as well).

 

[GoldenGlove]

Is Carter getting any playing time in this series? Or is he benched after contributing value all year?

Carter is unplayable in the postseason

 

[Legend27]

Yes the bucks are tremendously stupid its astonishingthe terrible shot selection and low iq from khris and Jrue and how shytty their halfcourt offense has been and why Celtics most of the time crush em has been a mindfukk to witness these past 3 years for me. Jrue shootings 39% and 30% from the 3 as a buck in the playoffs is atrocious ain’t no way he is better overall or a better fit for the bucks than other Star caliber point guards.

 

[Professor Emeritus]

Vanderbilt shot 2-5 yesterday in Lakers’ win from 3. Jrue shot 2-11, & Pat shot 1-6 on wide open 3s. I’ll take that over both.

Anyone trying to claim Vandy is a 3pt shooter is a troll. He's 2-8 from three in the postseason, he's only made 32 threes in HIS ENTIRE NBA CAREER.

Laker offense is stagnant whenever he's on the court because opponents don't even guard him. He's become a complete offensive liability.

And he’s a GREAT defender - something Pat isn’t.

Why would you compare a starter who is by far the best perimeter defender on the Lakers to a bench player who isn't even top-4 on the Bucks?

Walker over Pat. Beasley over Grayson. Reaves over Ingles. And Vanderbilt over Crowther. Rui over everyone. These are the wings on the Lakers vs Bucks. Why would anyone want to compare the depth of the two teams when it comes to wing players?

Why did you name the Laker starters yet ignore Middleton and Jrue?

Your comparisons are idiotic - you compared Laker starters to Bucks benchwarmers who barely play, then claimed absolutely horrible Lakers players who can't do shyt are better than useful Bucks players.


Malik Beasley is shooting 25% from the field, 22% from 3pt, and is a defensive liability. Lonnie Walker is so bad he can't even get in the game over Beasley. And you're claiming those are superior players?



This is the last comment, not gonna waste any more time on a troll.

Hawks level squad plus Giannis is an elite team.

 

[god shamgod]

The heat are overachieving & will go down in flames when the averages even out

 

[UpAndComing]

Nah, that's being way too harsh. Most teams would kill for their roster construction.

* Lopez is an elite rim-protecting floor-stretching center to have next to Giannis.

* Jrue-Middleton-Grayson give you the best trio of 3-and-d perimeter players in the league.

* Portis, Connoughton, Ingles are all serviceable bench players.


Sure, Jrue isn't quite a true point guard, but when your star is as ball-dominant as Giannis, that's where you'll sacrifice. He's fine as a second facilitator. Their big issue is the lack of a better backup point guard but all teams have some hole in the lineup.

Look at Milwaukee's lineup and compare it to the Suns who basically go 5-deep and don't fit together naturally. Or the Lakers whose roster was so bad that picking up D-Lo, Rui, Vandy, Beasley, and Bamba at midseason was somehow a huge win (D-lo would be the Bucks's backup PG, Rui would get time when Giannis was out and none of those other guys would even play). Or the Sixers, the Grizzlies, the Kings....everyone lacking somewhere.
