Milwaukee Bucks Fans Losing Patience After the Loss Against the Boston Celtics
It might be early in the 2024-2025 NBA season, but the Bucks fanbase is losing patience with the team. They are 14th in the Eastern Conference. Only the Detroit Pistons are worse than Milwaukee to start the season. There is plenty of time for them to dig themselves out of this hole, but the fanbase has had enough of the losing already:
Horst needs to be fired. Bench is awful. And should’ve never traded Jrue. Nothing against Dame but his defense is terrible. And Jrue one of best defenders and team players in NBA. And Doc is not the answer. I’d take Bud or Adrian over Doc

lol doc had half a season and the off-season buts says we still don’t have an identity! Another way of saying he don’t know how to fix it Does the front office still think this is the guy to lead us? Can you fire a 3rd coach? Could Hamm get us going? It’s bad right now! now what?

Team (mainly health w/ the exception of Middleton) kinda looking worse than last year’s team 😬

I don’t see what Pat does on this team. All he does is brick his 3’s and fly-bys 😂

Tell Doc to focus less on politics and more on his team

A lot of the problems with the Milwaukee Bucks this season have to do with the roster construction by general manager Jon Horst. He didn’t address the 2024 NBA Draft well. If they continue to lose, Bobby Portis, Brook Lopez, and Pat Connaughton could very well be traded at the NBA Trade Deadline.
Team Stats
Damian Lillard led the way for the Milwaukee Bucks with 33 points. He also shot 46.7% from the field. Lillard also grabbed seven rebounds, recorded seven assists, blocked one shot, and recorded one steal. Giannis Antetokounmpo scored 30 points for Milwaukee as well.
Jaylen Brown led the way for the Boston Celtics with 30 points. Payton Prichard scored 28 points off the bench for the Celtics. This is going to be a long season for the Bucks if they continue to end up losing games.
