Should've Never fired coach Griffin, Or Coach Bud and Never should've hired Doc rivers.
Shouldve never kept a roster complete with one guy under 30 playing big minutes, and hes 29
Yup and that’s basically what Joy is saying. I agree with yall
Should’ve never fired coach Bud to begin with
Exactly, should have never fired Bud
should have never slept with that girl in college on that pool table 😢
Giannis signed off on the firing of coach Bud and Giannis signed off on firing coach Griffin, Giannis had a Hand in Hiring doc rivers.
Giannis is probably not the smartest guy. They need more pieces on this team.....
Dame divorced his wife and is miserable in Milwaukee 😮
@@erikwelch3212 Based on Vincent Goodwill's story for Yahoo! Sports in February, Damian Lillard filed for divorce days after his trade to the Bucks. It makes me wonder if Lillard wanted to be traded because of the divorce or if his trade demands caused such a rift that it led to his divorce.
And he gonna sign off on Firing Doc too 😂
@@erikwelch3212Giannis had a say so in trading for Dame because he gave the Bucks an ultimatum
Joy said "No pause" 😂😂
You caught that too. JOY. My Girl!!!
😂😂😂
@@1979pmillerso lucky she your girl 🍀
She a freak freak
@upnextgem2185 I know right!!!
JJ Reddick always said that
Joy got Dem thangz sittin nicely
She's gone definitely make sure of that fasho LoL
Yams city whaat 🧐
Yes, its lovely to look at.
Had to with her annoying voice and take on angel reese
Dem headlights
No matter where Doc has coached, he has run into these problems. Every team, he has been with. These problems come with Doc.
Not exactly Doc had more success with the other teams he coached
If this was true hoe he keeps getting the job ?
@@javarzshinall9396 Not really. Doc couldn't get it Done with the 76ers, and couldn't get it done with the clippers and barely got it done with Boston, Doc has More game 7 Losses than most coaches in the Nba and past nba coaches, Doc isn't that Good of a Coach his past Records Data shows it. Doc isnt that Good
@@schao7555mf blew a 3-1 lead 4 times how does that happen 😂😂
@@mr.ineedit11harden TMac cris Paul. Thats how.
Should’ve never traded Jrue Holiday to begin with and should’ve never fired Griffin and hired Doc Rivers
I agree 100% that he was the glue and very underrated. Nobody wants to play def they all worried about their numbers. Look at the playoff collapses under doc.
Agree 100%
Agree with the jrue trade just not with AG- he didn’t own the locker room
Folks were all over JJ Reddick when he called Doc out for making excuses
This is ALL on Giannis. He only wanted Doc because Griffin was going to get rid of Giannis' brother and that's where the contentious behavior started!! 💯
Is that a real thing? He wanted Griff gone because they were gonna dump his brother? That's crazy if true
@@Trevor_Schindler no bro...
But griffin was playing thanasis more than doc does
Only the owner and GM can trade and release players.
What are you doing talking about? Giannis is responsible? For playing well? Also nothing you fking said is true. He didn't get someone fired for anything related to Thanasis wtf is wrong with you? You taking something that's a joke on Instagram literally. People like your spreading lies basely and with zero hesitation. It's disgusting
should have never fired coach BUD
Facts
He’s was too white
Only bc of joy im here 😩❤️
Hear me out…what about they cut Gianni’s brother and get a defensive guard who can stay in the corner and hit 3s.
Maybe that’s a solution…
😂 they probably think about that EVERY SINGLE DAY
Doesn’t matter with doc
The bro takes up the 12-15 spots, he's not supposed to be suiting up. Lol stop hating cuz your bro ain't make the nba
The fact u made this comment saids enough about ur bball iq
Black privilege
At what point is Giannis gonna get treated like other players that have seen coaches fired? 3 coaches in a year and franchise players gets off free?
Fans and media have picks.
It’s starting to happen.
He won a ring 🤷🏽
@@Closedeyewilly 💯
@@dadillonful KD and Kyrie have rings and they got heat for Steve Nash firing. Same with Lebron when David blatt and Walton were fired 🤷♂️
Shady saying he saw James Harden in the club without saying his name 😂
Pretty sure he said Miami player
@@hendrikdalnoot2821 oh lol
He said sixers
That was my first thought as well......with that little lefty fall-away shot. 😆
The media never blames dame if kyrie was playing like dame yall would destroy him smh 🤦🏿♂️
Exactly
Dame overrated. Good on offense but gives you nothing on defense. Now his offensive is struggling. He's a negative plus minus on the floor
Not if Kyrie was on Dame's level. Who is thinking Dame is on Kyrie's level?
Kyrie's play never been an issue. Injury and outside distractions he brought to organizations have been the issue
This is dames first year with a new team. Kyrie has a track record.
Reminding me of the Pistons and how they collapsed after winning in 2004. Poor management decisions and players deteriorating. By 2010 the organization became what it is today.
Because owners think this is the business world and not sports
Passing on Melo set them back 20+ years
pistons went to the finals in 05 and the eastern conference finals in 06, 07 and 08. hardly a collapse.
Why is giannis just skating by, he got his coach fired and got his guy in, if this was lebron he would be getting killed about it but doc taking all the fire
source?
you do realize people love to speculate and start rumors all the time about star players just doing their jobs right
Shady is a funny dude.. 😂
Nice segment 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂i love it
No pause ❤
I caught that too
Meaning she don’t mind suckin it up
No pause on Joy 😊. I know the guys up there be wondering! 😂
It's becoming more and more obvious that firing Griffin was a huge mistake.
Someone with the Bucks wanted Griffin gone due to his lack of experience.
James Jones set Molly up good @15:35. 😂😂😂😂
This was a good segment 😂
Also blame the general manager , or who ever hired Doc 😂😂😂
The reality is Milwaukee is a second-round level team that won a title in 2021 based on good fortune:
* Surviving a Brooklyn team with major injuries and Kevin Durant's 3-pointer at the end of Game 7 overturned in the second round.
* Facing No. 5 Atlanta instead of No. 1 Philadelphia in the East finals.
* Phoenix coach Monty Williams refusing to double-team Giannis Antetokounmpo in the NBA Finals.
Despite its size advantage over most teams, Milwaukee has been bullied in its season-ending series losses over the past five seasons. Toronto built a wall of big men between Giannis and the basket in 2019. Miami pushed them around in 2020 and 2022. Boston was down 3-2 and ran the Bucks off the court in the final two games in 2023. Even in 2021, Brooklyn ran Milwaukee off the court until Kyrie Irving and James Harden got injured.
Personally, I never considered Milwaukee a championship contender. They lack a sense of mental toughness and don't seem to respond well to adversity. While it's easy to blame Doc Rivers and Damian Lillard, I believe that the 2021 title just concealed their real identity: a team that looks good on paper but lacks the mental fortitude most championship teams have.
So the Brooklyn Nets didn’t try to cheat the game by forming a superteam?
Nicely said.
@@user-lt1fx2he5sKevin Durant and Kyrie Irving signed with Brooklyn free agents, and Brooklyn traded a haul of players and draft picks to acquire James Harden. By your logic, Giannis Antetokounmpo cheated the game by injuring Irving during the Bucks-Nets series when the Nets were embarrassing the Bucks.
Also, how does that affect Milwaukee's performance? The Bucks haven't looked like a threat in the playoffs over the past three years. Miami smacked Milwaukee around in the first round a year ago, and the team has been a chemistry/coaching mess all season that looks like it won't make it past the first round. It looks like 2021 is the anomaly of their playoff performances over the past five years.
@@michaeljohnson7945 Nah how did Giannis cheat the game he didn’t have a superteam? Remember KD signed off on the Harden trade
@@user-lt1fx2he5s@user-lt1fx2he5s Your "cheat the game" comments about a Brooklyn team that won one playoff series have no relevance to Milwaukee getting outclassed in its series losses since 2019. Even in 2021, the only series in which Milwaukee looked impressive was against Miami, and that was because the Bucks got revenge on Miami for embarrassing them in 2020.
Sorry, but Milwaukee always has looked like a second-round level team to me. They got bounced in the first round last year by Miami (which again pushed them around, just like in 2020) and it looks like they will lose in the first round again this season. And once again, it's not that they lose these series -- they don't look like they belong on the same court with these teams.
7:36 Look at James face, DOC ain’t no Hall of Famer 😂
Buddy said he is the scent. He is the stench 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Should Never fried Coach Griffin never ve hired Doc Rivers.
Giannis antetokounmpo get the blame to push Griffin out door
Notice how Giannis gets off Scott free.. nothing was said about XOs, coaching decisions he ain’t on the floor playing the game.. it’s gotta be bigger than Doc
What is Giannis's responsibility? He's playing great basketball and became the first player ever averaging 30+ppg on 60%+ from the field. None of this is him causing issues for the team. He's the reason they're 2nd in the East rn despite the disfunction
@@smgyro1476 he’s also a major part of the dysfunction.
If Joy didn't have them thangz on her this show would have been cancelled 😂
😂😂😂🤣🤣
Yes
It's also a Giannis problem. He didn't get along with the coach that won his chip or had this 1st I. The east and got them both fired
YES.
No one wants to talk about it, but I think it falls on the Greek freak. HC’s being fired even though the records were good. His brother being kept in the team over more talented players.
Joy is the main reason why I watch this show. The other reason is to watch Shady pout when people don't agree with him!! Lol!!
Doc rivers caught lightning in a bottle And the league has been trying to do it again which is literally impossible
It’s on Giannis .. all the coaching issues r on Giannis.. this is what Gil said, Giannis isn’t an IQ guy, he’s all talent an hard work.. he didn’t understand coach BUD was part of the reason the won a chip he thought it was all him Middleton and drew.. a smarter player wouldn’t have got rid of their coach that brought them across the finish line 💯
It's not just it's dame as well
Joy Joy 🤩😍 Definition of Beauty n Grace
I agree that the Bucks should be held accountable but also the players should take some blame as well. Was it not the players who wanted Griffin out?
Acho the tether!
We the fans say Doc is the problem
Doc is not the issue none of the coaches are just the chemistry is not there. The reason is simple, you guys should have never pick dame L up. They should have just let him went to Miami and get another guy who can handle the ball but not ball dominate because you have greek34 for that... guys don't know their role there.
This is on the front office and the players. The players wanted Griffin out and the front office followed suit
Everyone scared to say yannis name 😮
Grass isnt always greener. Should've kept griffin
Gloomy but definitely a joyful day ❤
With two beautiful rays of sunshine.
Who knows what's going on with the Bucks team! I can only say that the game they played against the Lakers -- where they were up by about 19 points in the 4th quarter and then they mysteriously and suddenly looked lost and confused (including Giannis) and without any direction -- was an utter embarrassment. But, as for Doc Rivers, the way the Sixers played under Doc Rivers was just absolutely and extremely disappointing and very painful to watch during the playoffs. I'm sure many Bucks fans were very disappointed when the Bucks hired Doc Rivers.
Doc out here blaming the bag packers on the plane 😂
Giannis fault
Doc doesn't play basketball anymore. The Bucks are seasoned professionals and should know how to get wins. Stop always blaming the coach on a team's struggles.
The Doc is the ailment on this team..
Doc was brought in the middle of the season and is coaching with another coaches assistants. What did y’all expect to happen? They’re worse defensively because they wanted Dame and they’ve been exposed defensively all year, even before Doc got there.
She said no pause ??😊
At this point you can’t blame Doc, got to blame the stupid front office
Joy❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Recycled coaches with more post season failures than successes was NEVER going to lead to a chip.
Luv Joy
The janitor needs to go. The waterboy, too. Also, the equipment manager.
I was with Gilbert in the beginning he said he's not sold on the bucks hiring Doc
Crazy Acho talking about throwing people off the scent, considering how he showed up at Wiley party acting like a friend only to be backstabbing the man the entire time!!! People who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones!!!
Its the bob hairstyle for me when it comes to JOY 🥰😍🥰😍🥰😍🥰😍🥰
I was laughing when they were dancing when they fired their head coach and got doc because I knew they wouldn’t be after a few months with Doc
Thank you Joy, for being the realest on the panel!
Bucks dont need a coach they need a motivational speaker they got stars
Adrian Griffin is still on the payroll. He should come back as an advisor.
It’s the players fault first and the head coaches are always going to get the blame in that order. Coaches get fired first before the GMs most time.
Water is not wet that's the only disagreement I have lol
No chill Gill was right
Yes he was. Gil has some of the best insight and takes on the NBA today. A lot of people think he is a tad bit crazy but he is seldomly wrong 💯
No hall of fame for Doc ever
I am also curious…. WHO hired Glenn Rivers? Some people say Giannis?
Doc was the consultant so he probably did hire himself 😂
Is the sun burning every day? 😂
Glenn there’s only one Doc -Rasheed Wallace
Giannis wanted more challenge. Win a championship with doc as a coach. Coming back from a 3-0 deficit on top of that
It doc I ain’t never heard no reports the last 5 years about anything coming out the Bucks Locker room
I don't agree with Joy often, but I do here. If u hire someone and they perform badly, as the person who hired them,u have to own some of that even if it is 80-90 percent on the bad hire.
Acho . Doc is the stench
Gianni's messed up big this year on picking Doc big mistake
I blame Giannis 🤣 he's the reason doc is here in the first place
In this exact scenario on any other team, the star player would get the blame and be called a coach killer.
The Speak Crew is trying hard to avoid placing any blame on the players and leadership core.
Every Lost doc has so far with the bucks Doc rivers is laughing at a lost after the game and at the Post game and it seems like Doc isn't Serious as A bucks head coach
Joy brings me Joy 😊
The Milwaukee Bucks should have never fired their last two coaches !!!!
Won title with Buldenholzer. Should've never fired Buldenholzer.
Crazy how they allowing Giannis to make it
Giannis is a common denominator throughout all of this Joy.
Imo players have to still play no excuses with who you have on that team
So why did they fire there last coach ?
They just gotta replace Brook or Middleton, that’s it, Khris is great at shot making but causes bunch of turnovers and can’t defend on ball players, Brook can’t rebound but he can protect the rim but can’t guard anyone out of the post so if he doesn’t drop 20 every game, he’s a non factor, his shot selection is mostly 3 pointers which is crazy because he’s a 7’
giannis is more responsible than doc. tried his hand at being a gm and it didn't work out and now the bucks are heading for purgatory unless dame can turn it around.
If Doc gets that hip replaced, it may work out...
Doc was already advising adrian griffin and then they fire griffin and hire the one advising him and expect better results? even if its not all on him that move was bonkers...
Tbh they messed up when they fired Budenholzer then Griffin. I hope they don’t win for another 40 years
And I been to Milwaukee outside of drinking it’s boring af
The Milwaukee Bucks were bad for almost 40 years and then they got Giannis…that sounds historically bad lol
Just make Giannis a player / coach like they have done in baseball.
Can you imagine looking at doc rivers resume and calling his references? lol. He’s terrible. You are hired! This man should write a book. On how to get a good job lol. Just crazy.
