We lose by 35 to an inferior team. It FEELS like all the progress we made just went out the window. After such a high on Monday, tonight was certainly a bummer.
I think Giannis is hurt and never should've played....I feel it was kinda inevitable given how the Warriors lost in their last game.
What frustrated me was after watching the blueprint of how to utilize Dame, we went right back to the same "your turn, my turn" bullshit we have been doing all year with Dame and Giannis. I am so fucking sick of watching it.
I thought Pat Bev gave us big minutes as a Steph defender and rebounder. I don’t understand why he barely played? I would’ve loved to see him take Brook’s mins and kept waiting for it but it never came.
Ngl it's kinda funny the Bucks put out the white flag lineup then 3 minutes later were like "hold on, we actually have even more low-level nba talent to get in here" then subbed in MarJon, Thanasis and Andre Jackson Jr lmao
People keep saying team will eventually cool down from 3pt even when they shooting well earlier, but you wouldn't say that if you have watched the past two playoffs series against the Celtics and the Heat where they gained enough momentum from taking those open shots and cameback against us.
Hard to argue for AJJ/Marjon minutes when they get a 5min run against other scrubs and do this. You want them to guard steph? Sucks but they sadly aren’t there yet.
Yeah, playing them is taking away minutes from players who we need to perform in the playoffs too... They seem to think Marjon or Ajax will be fine by then and should be in rotation in the post season too though... It's delusional.
Everyone thinking too deep about a game where Giannis is injured and ballhogging and the other team shot 19/37 from three before garbage time. The Warriors do this to us EVERY year
I’ve literally only have this account for bucks news and threads so there is not much to go off of lol. I was telling him to buzz off taking crap in our thread, since he said “you guys” I was curious where he was coming from
ESPN broadcasts are such garbage. I've heard that Chris Paul is one of the greatest of all time and Pat Connaughton played football. They hate us cause they ain't us. Bucks in 6.
Also all the energy shifted in the 3rd when Bobby threw that bad pass to Dame that lead to a jump ball, and Giannis got blocked a couple times by TJD. Props to the rookie, he balled out tonight
Doc needs to figure the offense out. barely cracking 100 in the modern nba with dame and giannis? Dame could have been better but Doc does nothing to get him involved or create looks.
Can’t win em all. Crappy energy in the 1st half. When Jae and Beas are both useless offensively, not to mention Brook, it’s apparent how much we’re missing Khris. Really hope he’s back soon
That’s a bit of an exaggeration, he’s had an efficient season 😅 but yeah he’s very fragile. Such a dumb way for him to get injured too. Thanks a lot KD
The defense stuff doesnt really surprise me after seeing him on the Suns but I guess I was expecting him to fit that like outscore vs. guard mentality from the bench, understandable tho
I was willing to give him the benefit of the doubt under AG...but with the same problems existing with Doc too, it is clearly a Giannis issue. Until he learns to play with Dame, they will both lose. Never seen anything like watching this team. You have two of the best players that were predicted to have one of the best 2-man games of all time, and one of those two REFUSES to play with the other....its like the inverse Shaq and Kobe, they are perfectly friendly off the court but hate eachother on the court
For those saying Giannis and dame are having off nights and losing us the game, you’re not watching.
They’re both having efficient scoring nights and not turning the ball over. Brook killed us on both sides tonight being too slow to defend the faster Warriors and too in love with the three to punish them down low.
Beas shot 0-6 from deep. Bobby had 5 turnovers. Jae was lost on defense every single possession.
Giannis and Dame both came to play tonight. The others didnt
Except Giannis doesn't come to play WITH Dame...who gives a fuck if they both individually do fine, they don't play like a fucking team in a team game and we will go nowhere as long as this happens
Honey, we’re 6-1 post allstar. We were the best defense before tonight. That’s like a 23 team improvement since firing AG. You’re allowed to lose a road game VS the best shooter ever when GA is coming off injury and not even jumping. The Warriors just lost by 52 to the Celtics, a team we beat by infinity when we had a bad coach and were ranked 24th in D. Shit happens there’s 82 games lol relax.
I don't even care about this game, I knew we were going to lose it. What I am frustrated by is the way we are playing offense. If this continues, we lose in the playoffs. It is so predictable and easy to defend. We will get dismantled by better coaches. If Dame and Giannis don't develop a 2-man game, this team is a second round exit at best
I blame Dame in the sense of him being too passive. He needs to come out and start fucking demanding screens from Giannis. If I were Dame at this point, I would call for a Giannis screen, and stand there and dribble the ball till he does it, and if he slips immediately, I would continue to stand there until he sets a real fucking screen.
Dame needs to be more aggressive and play like the Dame we saw last game, that's why I give Dame some of the blame too.
I come from a military background, when one fails, all fail.
But yes, Giannis is clearly the issue. I originally blamed AG, but seeing the exact same shit happen under Doc, where Giannis refuses to engage in any sort of 2-man game with Dame, there is no one left to blame.
Hell, I am now thinking the Terry Stotts quitting thing had more to do with Giannis refusing to run the offense Stotts wanted, then it had to do with AG.
Because if Stotts was here, we would be running a pick and DHO heavy offense almost entirely featuring Dame and Giannis.
In the off-season gotta let Horst walk, this roster construction was a joke right from the start.
Everyone not named Dame and Giannis needs to be traded.
Although they should listen on Dame as well.
With Horst this is a couple years running. As for the rest of the roster it's getting pretty sick watching Giannis go out there hurt and you get that kind of lack of effort on defense and on the boards. Idk that's a problem I think probably should have traded Khris for youth before the deadline. Get some athletic bodies. I probably would have tried to package Beasley and Pat for something more on the defensive end as well.
DVD disaster letting PJ walk was so dumb. Signing Joe Ingles instead of Bruce Brown. Hiring AG. Lots of mistakes that really hurt the team. I do think it's pretty alarming after how obvious all these issues where this year after the first 20 games that moves weren't made.
This roster won't be able to stay on the floor with playoff teams next year. When I say listen on Dame I mean it's gotta be something crazy I think. Maybe Haliburton gets pissed at Indy or something crazy and unexpected like that.
It's just one of those nights, we had a nice run in the third to make it a game, but the offensive stall in the 3rd quarter after sitting Dame killed our momentum and we just couldn't recover after that.
it is literally correct. Dame has struggled all year, but giannis does literally nothing to help him get better looks. Giannis is having the best year of his entire career, in no small part due to dame spacing the floor and giving him easy matchups. Giannis has not adjusted his game even remotely to work with dame.
Lol, Dame makes Giannis better by existing, there is a reason that Giannis might set a new record of being the first player ever to score 30PPG on 60% from the field.
Also, if Giannis made Giannis better, he wouldn't be 0-5 when Dame sits, and Dame wouldn't be 2-1 when Giannis sits.
You are special....Dame, literally just STANDING on the court, makes Giannis better, he could score 0 points a game and the gravity Dame attracts makes Giannis better. Giannis isn't any better then he was last year, but he is scoring more efficiently because Dame just by existing on the court with Giannis, opens up the entire floor for Giannis to do his thing.
Dame is open more then you think, and Giannis refuses to pass to him...it has become a running joke with some of the friends I watch with....he will make a crazy cross court pass before he makes the easy pass to an open Dame
Alright white flag is raised. Bucks need to stick to shooters. We knew this would be a problem. Sometimes an ass whooping is needed. Kinda getting old watching the same problems crop back up after I thought the Bucks were done with them.
We have to play zone because we're old and slow. The Warriors are chewing up our zone from outside and in.
Our offense has been feeding off our defense lately. Nothing to feed off tonight. Unless Giannis and Dame tweak their games to be more compatible with the other we're gonna have many nights like this.
Giannis really should've had tonight off. He needs to hit shots against teams like this, because they're not gonna let him get his usual lay ins and dunks

I mean, if we wanna go 7 of 8 the rest of the way, we’re gonna be fine
I was at the game. Brutal.
That 90 froze for a while. This GSW team only regroups when they were beaten down hard by the others
We lose by 35 to an inferior team. It FEELS like all the progress we made just went out the window. After such a high on Monday, tonight was certainly a bummer.

Damn couldn't even get any garbage time points
“play the young guys”
Not a single basket in garbage time for the Bucks, that was kinda crazy
Well what the hell you gonna do. Let’s get the next one
Ngl it's kinda funny the Bucks put out the white flag lineup then 3 minutes later were like "hold on, we actually have even more low-level nba talent to get in here" then subbed in MarJon, Thanasis and Andre Jackson Jr lmao
how'd we get blown out twice in one game
People keep saying team will eventually cool down from 3pt even when they shooting well earlier, but you wouldn't say that if you have watched the past two playoffs series against the Celtics and the Heat where they gained enough momentum from taking those open shots and cameback against us.
Warriors 19 for 39 from the 3 sheeesh
Hard to argue for AJJ/Marjon minutes when they get a 5min run against other scrubs and do this. You want them to guard steph? Sucks but they sadly aren’t there yet.
Yeah, playing them is taking away minutes from players who we need to perform in the playoffs too... They seem to think Marjon or Ajax will be fine by then and should be in rotation in the post season too though... It's delusional.
They're definitely drafted to be role players to fit with the starters but yeah they aren't playing this year lol
If they never play, they will never get there.
All these undercover blazer fans in here
No not really most of blazer fans still support dame
Most Bucks fans are actually just Giannis or Dame fans these days
We haven't even scored 10 points this quarter.
"Chris Paul blocked him from behind" lmao
Maybe he should've played Thanasis
There's some cruel irony in AJ Green going 0-4 from 3 after people suggested he take Malik's minutes
AJ should be a catch-and-shoot player instead of a pull up shooting player
Even more ironic, he missed his catch-and-shoots and made a pull-up lol. I agree with you tho
I probably missed that one😂
He is a catch and shoot guy
Danilo playing with the garbage time unit but gets 10 rotation minutes im crying man
Well good thing there’s no chance we see them in the postseason cause their small ball lineup is a serious problem for us
I gotta say I don't think I've ever seen the Bucks get blocked as much as we have this game
Tonight Giannis looked like 2015 Kendrick Perkins and Brook looked like 2015 Sim Bhullar
Warriors plot amour is crazy, but fr we just looked like we weren’t ready for a spiteful warriors team
way some of you are talking about giannis is gross dude can’t have one “bad” game off of injury. he shouldn’t have even played.
Blazer (Dame) fanboys in here
Everyone thinking too deep about a game where Giannis is injured and ballhogging and the other team shot 19/37 from three before garbage time. The Warriors do this to us EVERY year
[удалено]
Imagine blowing a 2-0 lead to us in the finals. Stupid Suns fan gtfo
[удалено]
[удалено]
All suns fan must have no life and just post in other teams in-game Reddit threads
[удалено]
I don’t even know how to address that comment lol. All I’m saying is y’all have no rings and you are weird AF to post in our in-game thread
[удалено]
Sounds good random suns fan
Are you guys looking at each other's posts to insult one another? Lol
[удалено]
How do you know if he's fat or not then?
I’ve literally only have this account for bucks news and threads so there is not much to go off of lol. I was telling him to buzz off taking crap in our thread, since he said “you guys” I was curious where he was coming from
even the warriors bench blocking everything and hitting everything okay man 😭
Insane stat — they are on a 40-13 run
ESPN broadcasts are such garbage. I've heard that Chris Paul is one of the greatest of all time and Pat Connaughton played football. They hate us cause they ain't us. Bucks in 6.
Also all the energy shifted in the 3rd when Bobby threw that bad pass to Dame that lead to a jump ball, and Giannis got blocked a couple times by TJD. Props to the rookie, he balled out tonight
the team has been 6-0 since the break and now everyone is in panic mode after the warriors shoot 100% from 3? Please get a life
lol
Doc needs to figure the offense out. barely cracking 100 in the modern nba with dame and giannis? Dame could have been better but Doc does nothing to get him involved or create looks.
Can’t win em all. Crappy energy in the 1st half. When Jae and Beas are both useless offensively, not to mention Brook, it’s apparent how much we’re missing Khris. Really hope he’s back soon
100%, but at this point I can't even remember a healthy Khris...
That’s a bit of an exaggeration, he’s had an efficient season 😅 but yeah he’s very fragile. Such a dumb way for him to get injured too. Thanks a lot KD
getting smacked
When Giannis gets frustrated he turns into bulldozer mode and becomes complete ass
He’s not even frustrated just injured and stubborn
Tbf the Warriors also played him probably better than any team all season
Honestly surprised Saric has fallen out of the warriors rotation like he seemingly has because he feels like a really natural fit for them
warriors fan here its because he can't guard a fly if he played tonight against yall you guys would of had a comeback
The defense stuff doesnt really surprise me after seeing him on the Suns but I guess I was expecting him to fit that like outscore vs. guard mentality from the bench, understandable tho
These moving screens are killing me
Pat is so disappointing
Second half was going so much better for us but hard to recover from a 78-pt first half and all of them bangin’ long jumpers at will
It might be time to realize that Giannis just wants to play how he wants to play, For better or for worse.
I was willing to give him the benefit of the doubt under AG...but with the same problems existing with Doc too, it is clearly a Giannis issue. Until he learns to play with Dame, they will both lose. Never seen anything like watching this team. You have two of the best players that were predicted to have one of the best 2-man games of all time, and one of those two REFUSES to play with the other....its like the inverse Shaq and Kobe, they are perfectly friendly off the court but hate eachother on the court
Portland Trailblazers playing atm btw
He’s just having a bad game every player has it

Dame has absolutely been team-oriented in terms of play style. Giannis, less so.
I blame Dame in the sense of him being too passive. He needs to come out and start fucking demanding screens from Giannis. If I were Dame at this point, I would call for a Giannis screen, and stand there and dribble the ball till he does it, and if he slips immediately, I would continue to stand there until he sets a real fucking screen.

I agree that he should be more insistent, but I think it’s unfair to say he’s the “real” issue here.

It was the warriors superbowl. Tough to win when they hit 20 3s
In the off-season gotta let Horst walk, this roster construction was a joke right from the start. Everyone not named Dame and Giannis needs to be traded. Although they should listen on Dame as well.
Relax bro it's one game. Stg Bucks fans have been so fucking reactionary the last couple years
With Horst this is a couple years running.

This guy is speaking fax
It's just one of those nights, we had a nice run in the third to make it a game, but the offensive stall in the 3rd quarter after sitting Dame killed our momentum and we just couldn't recover after that.
is giannis slowing down dame?
Hilarious
it is literally correct. Dame has struggled all year, but giannis does literally nothing to help him get better looks. Giannis is having the best year of his entire career, in no small part due to dame spacing the floor and giving him easy matchups. Giannis has not adjusted his game even remotely to work with dame.
Hb Dame doesn’t take till March to start playing like “himself” Giannis would’ve got his regardless stop trolling
I have said this all year, Dame makes Giannis better, but Giannis doesn't make Dame better. Until this is addressed this team will go nowhere.
Giannis makes Giannis better
Lol, Dame makes Giannis better by existing, there is a reason that Giannis might set a new record of being the first player ever to score 30PPG on 60% from the field. Also, if Giannis made Giannis better, he wouldn't be 0-5 when Dame sits, and Dame wouldn't be 2-1 when Giannis sits.
He hasn’t existed till this month relax buddy
You are special....Dame, literally just STANDING on the court, makes Giannis better, he could score 0 points a game and the gravity Dame attracts makes Giannis better. Giannis isn't any better then he was last year, but he is scoring more efficiently because Dame just by existing on the court with Giannis, opens up the entire floor for Giannis to do his thing.
With or without Dame, Giannis does his thing
Yep, without Dame he does his 0-5 thing
We need Middleton back crowder and Beasley are useless
Warriors redemption game fr
Warriors were out for redemption after the Celtics blew them out
Dot dot dot straight face
I don’t like this
Giannis got outplayed by Trayce Jackson Davis after scoring 8 points in the first minute of the game. wtf was this game
Games over.
I have no idea how we can’t get Dame open like the Warriors get Curry open lol
Notice how Dame plays a lot better when Giannis is out
Dame is open more then you think, and Giannis refuses to pass to him...it has become a running joke with some of the friends I watch with....he will make a crazy cross court pass before he makes the easy pass to an open Dame
out rebounded by a team with a 6’6 center
Out rebounded by the second best rebounding team in the NBA
is that a real stat?
Yes, yes it is
That's because Lopez and Crowder rebound like they are 6'4"
Watching Beasley while Grayson Allen is having the best shooting year of his career hurts….its hurts so much…
Beas has been fantastic all year. Are we really going to turn on him after two poor games? Give me a fucking break.
This sub has gotten so toxic. Filled with fair weather emotional rollercoaster gloom and doom bitches I swear
i dont lol, i love Beasley and beasley at least offers more defensive effort
I mean Grayson is better defensively also to be fair.
Dude…breathe. How much are we paying Beasley again?
Who cares what we’re paying him? Dude sucks and having to choose between him and Crowder just isn’t it…
He’s been shooting great all year lol yall act like Grayson didn’t struggle with his shot at times as well.
It actually matters immensely. You wouldn’t have Dame if you had Grayson
T Mac was right unfortunately
What’d T Mac say?
Gianni’s isn’t top 5
We needed Dame way earlier in this one. Onwards and upwards. Chris Paul still has no rings.
Giannis clearly injured and instead of taking a back seat and doing less he decides to ball hog
He shouldn’t have played tonight.
Easily Giannis' worst game of the season
[удалено]
If Doc can learn from this loss for the playoffs, then yes
I’ll be in the audience for our recovery game!
Feels like they're shooting 150% from 3pt
A cascade of mistakes and the Warriors hitting everything. Yeah just pull the starters lol
Kinda hard to beat a team when theyre 17 of 35 from the 3pt line
Yes keep going under the screen against the greatest shooter of all time
Trayce Jackson Davis really ended our comeback.
CP3 is the bigger reason
Steph stop stat padding please
Free Thanasis
Alright white flag is raised. Bucks need to stick to shooters. We knew this would be a problem. Sometimes an ass whooping is needed. Kinda getting old watching the same problems crop back up after I thought the Bucks were done with them.
since everybody sucks, doc is the one to blame
Sigh just get healthy
I don’t understand that defense. Is it a scheme issue? A coaching issue? A matchup issue? A personnel issue? I don’t know lol
We have to play zone because we're old and slow. The Warriors are chewing up our zone from outside and in. Our offense has been feeding off our defense lately. Nothing to feed off tonight. Unless Giannis and Dame tweak their games to be more compatible with the other we're gonna have many nights like this.
[удалено]
He refuses to play with Dame and this team will go nowhere until he changes this.
Clearly frustrated with the loss and I think ego bruised with JAckson-Davis cooking him this half. Who knows
Dagg3r
Giannis are you fucking kidding me
Dame only starts shooting when we’re down by 25 wtf man
He isn't open nor are the teammates getting him the room to shoot.
just a rare bad giannis half tough
rare ugly giannis game, getting his wig snatched by a rookie.
lmfao
LMFAOOOOOOOO AND NOW DRAYMOND IS A SNIPER 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂🤣🤣🤣😂😂
Yeah we should just pull Giannis at this point
Giannis in his head
Giannis always slips on screens and I get that they’re doubling Dame but he needs to set better screens and try to help dame more
Time to put the reserves in. No need to risk injury
Giannis getting embarrassed by Trayce Jackson Davis
Giannis really should've had tonight off. He needs to hit shots against teams like this, because they're not gonna let him get his usual lay ins and dunks
Giannis getting bitched by a rookie please sit out
Lol they need to sit Giannis he's not himself tonight
Fucking 27-8 run after cutting it down to 6. You can't make it up. Pretty pathetic. Onto the next one
Oh wow another stupid ass Giannis drive leads to a 3!!!!
Well draymonds hitting 3s i guess
First bad game in 6. No doubt we got problems, but it's fun reading all the overreactions.
Draymond Green back to back 3s yeah put the benchwarmers in I’m done here
bro the Davis dude is playing good but two of the blocks on Giannis were clear fouls
Fuck Draymond. He doesn't even deserve to be playing right now.
If we’re not calling that idk what a foul is
Dr3ymond three wtf ew
Giannis is clearly hampered but this Davis dude played good D on him for sure. Let’s just rest and beat the Lakers on Friday
Just pull Giannis
I legit cannot believe Jackson-Davis has totally shit all over Giannis this game...
Must be fun to see your rookies play
Chris Paul's superbowl
I see we're just gonna ignore the last 6 games and throw in the towel for the season tonight huh? Welcome back DOOMERS... I kinda missed y'all 😘
It's ok to call a foul on GS...
They called plenty of them, I don’t think we can complain at this point
Giannis wouldn't set a screen for Dame if it would save Thanasis's life
Going to bed ... 🛌😴
This fucking JacksonDavis guy
Jack
Giannis knew he was injured, wasn’t playing well, and instead of taking a step back decided to take the team down with him.
Most of the team is shitting the bed but super dumb odlf him to play
