Well… that’s what it looks like when your coach does not have you prepared for what they’re doing. The Bucks just keep trying to jam that square peg in that round hole. No changes, no adjustment. They thought that Middleton was the weak link- and now they know it. They know what the Bucks are going to do before they do it, because they’re smarter.

And yet Giannis still out there jacking up 20 footers early in the shot clock.

This first quarter shot distribution does not seem well thought out.

Milwaukee's made and attempted shots in the first quarter of Game 2 vs. the Nets: Restricted Area: 0/0 Midrange: 5/10 3-Pointers: 3/10 Milwaukee has gotten away from who they are. Not getting any pressure on the rim. Have to also credit to Brooklyn for playing strong team D.

Bud is a fucking idiot.  He’s borderline Mike McCarthy.  Complete dolt that looks good surrounded by a transcendent player.

I was completely wrong about this team.  But I wasn’t wrong about Bud.  If the Bucks don’t show some fight in this series he needs to be fired immediately.  

Oh, and someone might want to tell Middleton to wake the fuck up.

Bucks have such a mismatch inside yet they don’t even bother.  Fuck you Bud.

Middleton obviously was horrible in the first half, but Bud has decided he is forced to play a zone defense against a team with Kevin Durant?

Giannis, Holiday, and Tucker are guys that individually are some of the best defensive players in the league. Middleton is not a liability on defense. And you act like your team is filled with an entire roster of Bryn Forbes that you have to hide in a zone?

The Bucks are a pretty mentally weak team. Guys like Irving and Durant are confident. They rise to the occasion. Play sharper, smarter, and better under the bright lights.

Bucks are doing what weak teams do- crumble under pressure. They overcame Miami, but against Brooklyn they have to match these two guys who play their best in the big moments. Instead of rising, they’ve wilted.

153-105 from halftime Saturday to the end of the 3rd quarter.

That's true for the Bucks in this series, Bud as he coach in Milwaukee, and probably Middleton as a Buck.

I sure hope you’re right. Really thought they had more in them than this. Can’t keep jamming square pegs in round holes. Budenholzer cannot stay on as the head coach of this team. They’re not good enough because they are unprepared and mentally deficient.

The coach sets the example, the mentality, tweaks the plan to knock the opponents off balance. The Nets did it by putting Irving on Middleton and getting him to think it was a mismatch. Then as the shots clanged, the rest of the Bucks panicked. The organization cannot ignore it any longer. It’s over. The Budenholzer era must end. And if Rick Carlisle bows out in Dallas, you have him on speed dial.

The Nets have been missing a first ballot Hall of Famer, one of the greatest perimeter shooters of the last quarter century, for all but one minute of the two games, and the Nets are shooting 44.4% (36 for 81) from behind the arc. The Nets are shooting better from 3-pt range than our two-time MVP is shooting from the free throw line. He’s 2 for 10. 20%.

As I said before. I am done with Bud. Absolutely done. No arguments, please. His team is mentally soft, maybe the softest team I’ve seen as a Wisconsin sports fan. The Bucks get punched in the mouth, snd they go sit down, suck their thumbs, and have a good cry.

And Middleton? He’s utterly worthless. Giannis hasn’t played well, but anybody that’s contended KM is a good #2 is kidding themselves. He’s good about once every three games against the true top tier teams, and when he’s off, Stevie Wonder could outshoot him. So expect him to have a bang up game 3. The Bucks will win somehow, playing just well enough to give Bucks fans a false hope. Then, Lucy will pull the football away, and we’ll land flat on our ass. Good grief.

Middleton is 13 for 43 from the floor (30%), and 3 for 13 from 3. That’s 23%. He’s as predictable as the atomic clock.

I won’t waste any of my time watching the rest of the series. I know how this ends, and my hopes of seeing a Milwaukee sports team win a title in my lifetime heads into year #50 of futility.
