We told them the trade was trash but Giannis needed a scapegoat rather than hold himself and other members of the locker room accountable.

It was easy to trash and disrespect your head coach in public and ultimately sign off on his firing because you influenced his hire.

This Bucks will end like I predicted, it is already following the script. Giannis will leave the Bucks and become a villain to that city.

A. Griffin right now..

😂😂😂😂

@A40 Bosita!!!

Come and tell us how Giannis is better than Embiid, Kawhi, Zion and AD when it comes to injuries and not being available.

At least Kawhi, Zion and AD played through injuries this post season. Consecutive seasons where your MCM has missed the playoffs because of injuries.

Talk about the most shielded superstar in the NBA!

Bosita!!!!!

If Knicks does not win this series tonight, they will lose game 7.

Embiid is taking this personal and they need him to come through for them today.

Where you at

Remember this dance after Griffin was fired? I wonder who is dancing now.

Baba, bucks lost because of the injuries not the trade. With Giannis and Lilard healthy, they will at least drag Celtics to game 7 in the ECF. That one na sure banker. Even with the Porzingis and Holiday trade, E still no sure for you people, shey you know? What am I even saying? Heats for done commot una if Butler and Rozier was healthy.

Bucks lost due to the injuries bro but they could have still lost without the injuries. They have been atrocious and they can't hold a torch to the celtics....
How do you plan to take the celtics to 7 games with that kind of defence. Heck, even if they manage to beat Indian, they'd have lost to the knicks....

Come on man

Imagine having Westbrook, Harden joined with always injured Kawhi and PG in the same team.

That's why it's the playoffs. They would figure it out. Patrick Beverly joining the team strengthened defence. Middleton would have stepped up just the way he did. To be honest, My comeback at Ronald was because we was dugging Giannis for getting rid of Griffin. Griffin with this team would still have lost to the Celtics. The Bucks lost it by letting go Jrue and coach Bud, still it's the playoffs. Bucks go beat Knicks. Celtics would have been their bustop though and A.J Griffin wouldn't have been able to prevent it. Losing Jrue was stupid.

The NBA season did not start in April 2024. The Pacers owned the Bucks 4-1 in the regular season and feasted on their best lineups throughout the season. Nothing going into the post season suggested the Bucks would better this Pacers. The Bucks were still ranked bottom of the pack in defensive rating and if I was a bettor my money would be on the Pacers.

As for the embolden, I will leave you to your convictions because I don't see it, even with a healthy Heat roster.

None of us saw them eliminating the Bucks last year, they did. Playoffs basketball dey always dey different. You yourself know that one. If it takes Giannis dropping 50 every night, he will make that attempt. Lillard's defence is trash, He still dragged Portland to WCF in 2019 with that defence. Middleton would also stepup like he did in Game 4 & 5. Playoff basketball is different from regular season.

Lakers fire Darvin Ham

I agree playoffs basketball is different but there is something to be said if you beat a team 4 times out of 5. All of these are "would" and nothing from this post season sef showed me that the Bucks would have eliminated the Pacers. I think you are carried away by the history bias or past performances of a lot of these Bucks players. Middleton is spent, he is on his last legs, Lillard isn't going to carry the Bucks, he has shown he can't, so that leaves you with Giannis. Worsestill, they don't have a scoring bench so that means they are heavy on their first rotation.

Are we talking about same Giannis that hyperextended his knee and still played the conference Finals

This is only his second season missing the playoffs through injuries. Don't compare him to guys in their 4th year of service please

Simple question. If they retained Griffin and Dame and Giannis got injured entering the playoffs do the Bucks still win?

Unless you're saying Griffin's firing is the reason Giannis cannot even run then I hands off and you win

If Giannis was healthy, they will at least beat the Pacers and I fancy their chances against Knicks. Celtics is where they will meet their match.

Darvin Ham. Another unlucky scapegoat biting the dust

I want to see who they hire. Hell let them hire JJ Redick. Let's see how deep his friendship with his podcast buddy really is when Jokic and Murray sends them packing again

Let's see if he's still brown nosing after yet another failure where he's made the scapegoat like several other players and coaches before him

Guess we will never know. The point is Giannis injury rendered everything irrelevant. If the former guy was there and Giannis is injured they would still lose

Bucks are doing a poor job of blending their young players with the old ones and that's why Indy gives them so much problems. It's the speed, they're too quick

We already saw what a healthy Bucks with the full compliment of Lillard/ Beasley and Giannis did post Griffin and it wasn’t exactly great. The Bucks if anything finished 3rd and bottom pack of defensive rating. So no, the injury excuse isn’t going to sell.

We told you guys that roster as constructed was never going to work because you have two mannequins in Lillard/Beasley in your front court that opponents feasted on all season. Tell me why we are now hearing talks of the Bucks trading Lillard? Is that also Griffins fault?

As for your question, If the Bucks kept Griffin and based on their record when he was let go, he would have finished second and gotten the Magic and not the Pacers. In the worst case they got the Pacers, We may never know, unlike the fact we have in front of us after his dismissal.

Unlucky scapegoat indeed.

Cavs vs Magic.

84 -84 4th qtr.

How close can this get?

You're just arguing to argue at this point. Holiday was there last season when they lost in 5 in the first round, as the first seed, so they had to take a chance. Few teams will pass up a chance to trade for Dame Lillard, no need playing Monday Morning Quarterback.

How can injury excuse not matter? Does Denver beat the Lakers without Jokic and Jamal Murray, scratch that, do they beat the Lakers without just Jamal Murray. The Bucks didn't have their Jokic and Jamal so why you think this is a gotcha moment is well and truly beyond me

If the Bucks didn't fire Griffin and hypothetically finish 2nd they get the Sixers not the Magic. The Magic are a 5 seed. And they don't beat the Magic or Sixers anyway without Giannis and Lillard so your entire argument is still moot.

I know you desperately want to be right but injury to Giannis and Dame has binned the argument anyway

You're a clown. Shey it's Ham's fault Russell played like a bum in multiple games, Hachimura as well

It's his fault AD buttersoft ass brushed with MPJ and reacted like he got hit with a buckshot

His fault that Bron couldn't hit the 3 to win Game 2

Let's see the next guy wey una go hire nau. And the miracle he will perform. Coach #4 in 7 seasons

Shebi we will be here

Cavs vs Magic Game 7

Lol is anyone really going go watch that

50 piece for Mitchell, 22/36 shooting. Incredible.

Unfortunately the rest of his team let him down. No help from anyone else, barr maybe Garland.

Impressive defense once again from the Magic, who have held the Cavs to below 100 points for the fifth time in six games.
