Doc is stuck in the 2010s with his offense. Philadelphia had the same problems with their offense being stale. He hasn't evolved as a coach and I'm still confused as to why the Bucks wanted him over other candidates like Ime, Atkison, and Stotts
right? My weekly pickup game runs more sophisticated offense. What is super crazy is the Dame/Giannis PnR actually gets really good results, but that PnR combo is hardly used
Reminder that Rivers literally got his nickname from wearing a Doctor J shirt to training camp once. It makes him sound way more wise/capable than he really is. I genuinely think that's doing a lot of the heavy lifting.
Giannis' free-throw shot is a perfect representation of all his worst faults: Overthinks it, doesn't get it but is still stubborn, too much force in the wrong motions. He's my guy and a national hero in Greece, but he might benefit from meditation or yoga or anything that makes you unclench your buttcheecks
Giannis is a good guy any person can see this he’s just messing around it’s in his nature. As a Greek I understand him you know he’s just like one of those Greek kids on the block. He grew up in Sepolia selling souvenirs bro he’s a humble dude. Ask anyone back home they’ll tell you. The owners of this cafe in Greece can tell you. The locals know him. It’s just a Greek thing to do to clown on someone but we don’t take it personal, neither should JB And he didn’t intentionally hurt Kyrie and JT. LOOK AT HIS EYES both plays, he’s starring at the BALL not the GROUND Jokic is top 1, but Giannis is top 2. He’s averaging damn near 32 points on 60% shooting from the field. If he hit a consistent FT he would be averaging 35+. Balkan Bois top 2 in the world let’s goo 🇷🇸🇬🇷☦️🙏🏻
Agreed, I've always said one of Giannis biggest weaknesses is that he tries TOO hard. It stops him from playing to his full potential but he's getting better in that area.
Throwing that high elbow was 100% intentional. Giannis deserved the receipt Jaylen Brown gave him later on in the game. The bucks are absolutely COOKED if they dont get rid of Doc.
and maybe Giannis has a reason to hate the Celtics, Jaysun Tatum crying, faking an injury trying to get Giannis ejected. Maybe they shouldn't be so soft.
@@DasInf13lol so Tatum, who’s played more games than anyone since he was drafted, faked an injury to get Giannis ejected? You’re lucky you’re hiding behind a screen. People get knocked out for saying shit like this 🤡
@tim.noonan knocked out? Quit the internet tough guy act, your inner Tatum is showing. You act like playing basketball for a living is hard to do. They are athletes who get payed millions to play for a few hours a night during the week. His longevity has nothing to do with him trying to get Giannis ejected. Go puff your chest out some more in the mirror because that's the only person who cares
@@DasInf13 Faking an injury? He was literally questionable for today's game against the Hawks for an ankle sprain. Tatum who never shows up on the injury report because he is one of the most durable players in the NBA but yeah he's faking it clearly....
Everything with the Bucks comes down to coaching. We should make a sitcom called "Doc & Darvin". Because it is unreal how they run the offense and defense. Doc Rivers seems to be really good in selling himself
Darvin Ham is a good coach the Lakers was a bad constructed roster with lebron who was old/ bad on defense and anthony davis who was inconsistent/injury with inconsistent role players like austin reeves, rui hachmura, D'Angelo russell they couldn't beat Denver in the regulation nor postseason for two straight years is biggest reason why darvin Ham was fired
From what I've read Doc didn't even sell himself to the Bucks, they begged him to mentor Adrian Griffin and then begged him to replace him once he was fired. The real issue with the Bucks are their ownership group.
It's only a surprise if you ignore all the other questionable things he gets up to. Remember the ladder incident? Or the game ball incident? Why does nobody talk about how he got two good coaches fired? And the way he publicly attacks the front office and forces them to make bad trades (Jrue/Dame) by threatening to leave? He's a fake nice guy and most of the bad decisions the team has made lately are driven by him.
@@OmarJames The ladder incident? Game ball incident? You kidding? All those prove is that some ppl just really want Giannis to fail. 76ers send some poor schmuck to troll Giannis with a ladder and that's newsworthy? Or is it unreasonable to want the game ball after scoring 64 points. Giannis may have gotten Griffin hired and fired, but unfortunately for the Bucks and coach Bud, Spoelstra made him look like such a$$ that someone was going to be scapegoated. Also, nothing wrong with applying pressure to the front office to win in general, that's not a heel move by itself. The problem with Giannis isn't applying pressure, it's that he made very bad decisions
Jaylen has a point , Giannis deliberately hurts people when he knows he can get away with it and he does throw temper tantrums. Maybe he’ll demand a trade soon lol
Taurean Prince is somehow on a roster but young guys like DSJ, Lonnie Walker, and Markell Fultz are sitting at home 💀🤦🏾♂️all 3 have more to offer than that dude 😂😂
It's because all those guys you mentioned don't know how to play as role-players. All those guys you mentioned need the ball to be effective. You can be as talented as you want, but if you don't know how to play within a role, teams don't need you. A great example is Michael Beasley, super talented but never found his place in the NBA.
Do you honestly think Giannis won the NBA championship, because he's skilled at playing basketball? Or, that he has a high IQ? Or, that he's mature as a person?
The Bucks have a lot of problems, but Doc Rivers is obviously the biggest one. It is absolutely amazing that he keeps getting jobs. Sidenote: I always find it fascinating to see freethrows like Giannis'. Why even bend the knees when you're literally not going to use any of the power from them? Might as well not bend at all.
Giannis' immaturity was not something I expected early in his career. He was 'childish', but in a naive and innocent way, he was truly grateful for the opportunity he had been given. Of course that was going to wear off eventually, but I didn't expect his immaturity to remain and progress into brattiness. I don't dislike Giannis, in fact I like him more than the vast majority of players in the League, including Brown, but I do want to see him grow up.
Same here bro , this league changes people . I have heard the media blame Giannis for the GM's faults , the coaches fault , Blame Giannis for trades , blame Giannis for his team mates etc . Its exhausting .
Yall taking thus way to serious, his game and attitude hasnt changed. He uses his stature to go thorugh people. He is a child because he was messing around with brown while up? Idk yall crazy if you didnt see this.
Most natural shooting motions as you release the ball your feet go forward, but giannis was closing out and his legs split slid his right foot right under Tatum landing spot@Talismanos
Coach, you're spot on with your analysis. Unfortunately, I don't see a new coach coming in. Doc was the owners' decision, and they’re unlikely to fire him and pay for a fourth coach after already paying the previous three..so we are stuck with doc's bad coaching
If I'm not mistaken, once a Coach gets signed to another team & their new contract is bigger, the previous team no longer has to pay that Coach. So the Bucks aren't paying Bud anymore.
Its not even basketball at this point. Thats what made Bill Russell FINALLY give up the ghost. He couldnt bear to look at this... uhhh... this 'Thing' and call it basketball
11:20, AJ set the screen and Dame was being held by Brown. By the time Dame breaks free to use the screen, AJ gives up on the screen. That's why that was wonky.
@@davidfebreeze428 the Doc Rivers part of the quote is what's relevant here. The 08-10 Celtics are obviously very different from this Bucks squad. Still, an opposing coach feeling comfortable enough to say that about Doc in the middle of a Finals is very telling imo. Specially with how Doc's subsequent coaching stints have gone.
@ sure but i feel like it’s never only one person and with his philosophy „let the players figure it out on the court“ it seems to me like he was having a bit of a go on the team as well
Doc Rivers is like a video game that never got any major updates after release but people still play it because it won GoTY years ago. Even though nowadays it's just a buggy mess notorious for crashing on the final boss.
Idk about 'spot on'.. he said last year before the season started that Dame wouldn't negatively influence the Bucks defense..... Aged like cottage cheese
I would add that giannis receives JUST AS MUCH contact if not more. Brown just shoves him and you barely gave it a passing mention. Shame on jb and jt for intentionally shoving and grappling. Cant just have in one way.
@@dre32pitt That's more of a coaching thing. For whatever reason, yall think Jrue Holiday was the ONLY reason the Bucks defense was good over the years lmao. Well, if you did your research, you'd know that their defense was ranked even better before Jrue got there. Coach Bud is just a better defensive (and overall) coach than Griffin & Rivers.
@@lazzi2462 I hear you but it's as simple as addition and subtraction.. They subtracted a very good defender and added a very poor defender.. it's not rocket science lol..
Maybe Doc is The Process. Hiring him is a way of tanking without getting in trouble with the league administration. Giannis, Dame and Cooper Flag is a Big 3.
Everyone but his delusional fans knows this. Remember when he got bounced out in the first round and said that dumb shet,” Ain’t no such thing as failure”, and you had TNT and delusional fanboys acting like he said some Psychological shet? 😭😭😭
Yooo foreeal his clumsiness is beyond words. He is a good player yea yea sure I will agree But boy oh boy does he make the wrong decisions many times. And worst yet is that when he makes a mistale he'll sometimes even dig himself even deeper into the mistake!
@@Zecamilleo Can't nobody stop him from attacking the paint tho unless you use a great post defender and great help defender like the 2019 Raptors did with Serge Ibaka and Marc Gasol
I mean ngl, he’s a beast at basketball but he does seem really immature. The whole thing where he forced the bucks to put his brother on the team and continues to hold bucks management hostage if they don’t is literally the definition of unprofessionalism. And that only comes with being stupid, or immature. And imo it’s the later cause he doesn’t seem that dumb.
This stuff just reminds me when Gil said Gianni’s isn’t good at basketball, he’s just REALLY good at doing one thing and it’s unguardable… I remember watching the infamous grizlys game from last year, the majority of his points came from bringing the ball up or transition
You’re literally describing shaq and all of a sudden it’s a problem lmao. If you’re going to reference an ex players basketball take, choose anyone but Gilbert Arenas. That guy doesn’t have a single objective take in his body.
@@user-wy1et9dk9w you’re probly right about Gil. But watch Giannis and tell me I’m wrong. The diff is Shaq WON and changed the game no one thinks Giannis is going to win 3 more Chips, which would match Shaq, tho stranger things have happened.
Something that never made sense to me is why taller players are often bad shooters. When you're playing ball as a kid on a smaller hoop, it feels so much easier to make. It makes sense to me that a taller player should theoretically have an easier time making a shoot at a normal size hoop compared to a player of smaller stature.
- Larger players have a different body structure, so their shooting mechanics are generally different to complement their size. - Because of their size and longer limbs, maintaining a consistent shooting mechanics is hard. - Shooting Coaches that fit their body size. I think there's only a few shooting coaches that can help taller players shoot efficiently.
@@EmperorTime They never had to learn how to shoot from deep effectively.. their coach wouldve been like, 'WTH ARE YOU DOING?! GET IN THE PAINT AND MURDER THOSE PEONS!!!' lol
First minute and a half can already tell he hates Gianni's game . Like, every bball breakdown with giannis is always taking shots its kinda crazy. I bet this dude would say shaq was to physical and hate on him back in the 90s
Basically, I heard in the most polite way are the Bucks acts so brain dead and stupid on the court, good chunk of it is due to Doc Rivers. However, another portion is with Giannis and Dame unable to play alongside each other. Giannis plays so dangerously, and acts like a child. Honestly, make sense that he hasn't done anything in the past three years so sad. Hope they get better, but I really doubt they will.
The highlights of the Bucks defense just shows the lack of communication between the players! Its almost like they haven't done any defensive reps during practice.
I like the way the video portrays Doc as the evil master in the end lol I know my Bucks are not a championship team. It's due to management, personnel, and coaching.
Im glad yall openinh this up thank you so since we talking about this as a bulls and basketball fan in general i feel i can give my take giannis has came a long way but i feel like something that hasnt been talked about being rewarded for being out of control and overpowered he can hoop he understands his strengths and weaknesses like most but everyone has watched his game tbh his bullies his way to the paint not saying you shouldnt when your someone like his size but do it under control is all im saying he knows how to move his body to get the position he wants but does the extra with the elbows its another thing in his game i feel if he really gets down packed they more than likely can make a comeback this season let dame work i think giannis is too ball dominant to play with someone like same these are two ball dominant players you have to have one thats not and can impact the game still without having the ball in their hands always
It's pretty damning that this late in his career the Greek freak still can't post up... It would make it so much easier to stop teams from building a wall against him in the playoffs.. especially since he's not a good shooter
Excellent breakdown as always but man isn't this what watching film is for? The entire coaching staff not just Doc should be able to see every single mistake that coach Nick explained, so why arent they doing this too????
To be fair to Doc, who has it harder than Doc, man? He's always put in a position to fail with bad teams or tough situations, if not both. It's simply not fair to expect him to succeed when he's always being set up to fail. Maybe next team that gives him a coaching job will have a winning roster and won't ask him to take over midseason before a brutal stretch.
It's Doc Rivers. Giannis and Dame have issues, but rarely have I seen a championship caliber team fail basic defensive principles and discombobulated offensive sets. Start a petition, open a lawsuit, protest in the streets-Doc gotta go
Respectfully, no clue how Doc Rivers has had such a long coaching career… I don’t understand how front offices time and time again make bad coaching hires like Bucks and Doc and Lakers and Darvin Ham. I feel like I make better FO decisions in 2K MyGM… 🤦🏼♂️
I wish bucks take kuminfa, moody, draymond for giannis, actually no cause he don't like setting pick and that defeats a one two curry punch happening, also dray defense is just tough to lose
LOL, coach has been hating on Giannis and the bucks since coach bud's days. You can hear him how savage it comes off and the enjoyment coming out of him when he calls Giannis post ups mediocre at best. Not being a bucks fan, I just find it entertaining.
Bucks fans have been a captive audience for Giannis' fullback style of play for so long they've become convinced it's just normal basketball. And when you look at how dirty some teams like the Heat play defense, I've started to wonder if it isn't just a forced adaptation to how Giannis plays offense. The East is so annoying to play in because even though the competition is lower than the West, there's more of a injury risk to get through them because they're just not even trying to follow the rules.
Sorry coach, but I gotta disagree that that's a "clear flagrant foul" on giannis at 1:55 . Yes tatum lands on his foot, but giannis's foot is well behind the 3 point line, not anywhere near to where jayson took off from. I get you have to give the shooter landing space, but how far does it go before you can't even contest a jump shot. His leg is not sticking out at all, much different to what we used to see with Zaza Pachulia, where his leg would be pushed out far from his body and under the defenders feet.
1) Giannis is a child 2) He is better than any player on the Celtics 3) He gets fouled way more than any fouls he dishes out 4) Doc Rivers is the reason the Bucks are struggling this season
He was at least partially responsible for getting Budenholzer sacked, although Bud did not help himself, but Giannis was whining like a child. Now they have Doc Rivers. He is the new Lebron James.

@@lazzi2462 I hear you but it's as simple as addition and subtraction.. They subtracted a very good defender and added a very poor defender.. it's not rocket science lol..
Maybe Doc is The Process. Hiring him is a way of tanking without getting in trouble with the league administration. Giannis, Dame and Cooper Flag is a Big 3.
In summary Giannis runs and dunks , no skill and Doc rivers won a super team ring and people thought he was competent coach from that one ring
Everyone but his delusional fans knows this. Remember when he got bounced out in the first round and said that dumb shet,” Ain’t no such thing as failure”, and you had TNT and delusional fanboys acting like he said some Psychological shet? 😭😭😭
he was good with the clippers they just ran into the warriors. If not for that I think they win a ring.
@@juwilballHe also blew a 3-1 lead against the Rockets. He wasn't winning a ring with the Clippers
So Shaq has no skill either correct? Just because he is the best at driving doesn’t mean he isn’t skilled in other areas yk
@@juwilball Buddy the Clippers lost to the Rockets and Jazz with CP3...
Carbon ham was laughing when giannis undercut Tatum on a three . Dangerous play and you can see ham laughing
Giannis has lost the plot lately
Doc Rivers had entire training camp this time to destroy bucks yall
Giannis skills in the pain is painfull to watch, he dunks that's it.
Nice finger rolls, and his 15ft jumper actually looks ok this season.
Just terrible free throws, 3pt, and post moves.
Mr Run and Dunk man
Giannis always been a dirty player but he eat oreo milkshake for the first time so it's all okay
Giannis is one of the most well like players in the league on the court and off the court
I'd say clumsy
Yooo foreeal his clumsiness is beyond words.
He is a good player yea yea sure I will agree
But boy oh boy does he make the wrong decisions many times. And worst yet is that when he makes a mistale he'll sometimes even dig himself even deeper into the mistake!
Also, se doesn't have any foot work or can post up.
Least talented super star ever.
@@Zecamilleo Can't nobody stop him from attacking the paint tho unless you use a great post defender and great help defender like the 2019 Raptors did with Serge Ibaka and Marc Gasol
Darvin Ham goes to the Bucks and Taurean Prince follows him and gets playing minutes. What a coincidence.
I mean ngl, he’s a beast at basketball but he does seem really immature. The whole thing where he forced the bucks to put his brother on the team and continues to hold bucks management hostage if they don’t is literally the definition of unprofessionalism. And that only comes with being stupid, or immature. And imo it’s the later cause he doesn’t seem that dumb.
Giannis clearly is frustrated not with the Celtics but with Buck's organization & their GOAT in destroying top teams: Doc Rivers
1:13 whoa, he said this without an accent. Caught me off guard
This stuff just reminds me when Gil said Gianni’s isn’t good at basketball, he’s just REALLY good at doing one thing and it’s unguardable… I remember watching the infamous grizlys game from last year, the majority of his points came from bringing the ball up or transition
You’re literally describing shaq and all of a sudden it’s a problem lmao. If you’re going to reference an ex players basketball take, choose anyone but Gilbert Arenas. That guy doesn’t have a single objective take in his body.
@@user-wy1et9dk9w Giannis is actually more like D12 than Shaq, imo..
@@user-wy1et9dk9w you’re probly right about Gil. But watch Giannis and tell me I’m wrong.
The diff is Shaq WON and changed the game
no one thinks Giannis is going to win 3 more Chips, which would match Shaq, tho stranger things have happened.
They can win with Giannis injured other teams best player, it works few season ago
This is amazing analysis as usual
Something that never made sense to me is why taller players are often bad shooters. When you're playing ball as a kid on a smaller hoop, it feels so much easier to make. It makes sense to me that a taller player should theoretically have an easier time making a shoot at a normal size hoop compared to a player of smaller stature.
- Larger players have a different body structure, so their shooting mechanics are generally different to complement their size.
- Because of their size and longer limbs, maintaining a consistent shooting mechanics is hard.
- Shooting Coaches that fit their body size. I think there's only a few shooting coaches that can help taller players shoot efficiently.
@@EmperorTime They never had to learn how to shoot from deep effectively.. their coach wouldve been like, 'WTH ARE YOU DOING?! GET IN THE PAINT AND MURDER THOSE PEONS!!!' lol
I think its hand size. Try to shoot a tennis ball with 2 hands, its so awkward. Watch shaq shoot FT, it looks just like me shooting a childs ball
@@martydastooge Yep hand size also factors in. Reason why Rondo can't shoot efficiently on his early NBA years.
This guy screams the type of coach that shows a drill to kids but never executes it himself. You know that type.
First minute and a half can already tell he hates Gianni's game . Like, every bball breakdown with giannis is always taking shots its kinda crazy.
I bet this dude would say shaq was to physical and hate on him back in the 90s
Bro the whole world hating on giannis rn that bucks team was nothing before he got there
Its been known that Doc doesnt make any adjustments during the game. Even during celts he just relied on star power to win
13:49 Just happy Boston have Jrue now. He always plays best at crunch time.
The offense they should be trying are lillard-lopez pick and roll, giannis postups and middleton playmaking. They will need this in the playoffs
That all Giannis did in the NBA finals vs the Suns, elbows and shoulder down ramming, but never got called for offensive fouls
Not resigning jrue holiday will haunt the bucks forever
Man, this kind of offensive confusion is something you see at a park or local gym, not at professional basketball. It hurts to watch
I don't understand why Doc Rivers keeps getting a coaching job in the NBA when we see all his previous teams...
Coach Mike and Jrue are having a good time in Phoenix and Boston lmao.
Seeing THAT much confusion plays from bucks, it surprises me how close the game still was at the end.
Giannis wears the hat of a child…..”Broadwalk Empire”
Basically, I heard in the most polite way are the Bucks acts so brain dead and stupid on the court, good chunk of it is due to Doc Rivers. However, another portion is with Giannis and Dame unable to play alongside each other. Giannis plays so dangerously, and acts like a child. Honestly, make sense that he hasn't done anything in the past three years so sad. Hope they get better, but I really doubt they will.
Coach , get rid of that Bilt commercial before it's too late.
Massive scam "allegedly"
The highlights of the Bucks defense just shows the lack of communication between the players! Its almost like they haven't done any defensive reps during practice.
Our season is so finished 😢 the window is closed
I like the way the video portrays Doc as the evil master in the end lol I know my Bucks are not a championship team. It's due to management, personnel, and coaching.
Im glad yall openinh this up thank you so since we talking about this as a bulls and basketball fan in general i feel i can give my take giannis has came a long way but i feel like something that hasnt been talked about being rewarded for being out of control and overpowered he can hoop he understands his strengths and weaknesses like most but everyone has watched his game tbh his bullies his way to the paint not saying you shouldnt when your someone like his size but do it under control is all im saying he knows how to move his body to get the position he wants but does the extra with the elbows its another thing in his game i feel if he really gets down packed they more than likely can make a comeback this season let dame work i think giannis is too ball dominant to play with someone like same these are two ball dominant players you have to have one thats not and can impact the game still without having the ball in their hands always
It's pretty damning that this late in his career the Greek freak still can't post up... It would make it so much easier to stop teams from building a wall against him in the playoffs.. especially since he's not a good shooter
I bet they could win 70% of their games if they hired Adrian Griffin.
awesome vid
Giannis, Brook n Bobby are just plain bad perimeter defenders against shooters, the team is more worried about 2 pointers than 3’s
I do not like Giannis' game. He plays dirty. Thank you for highlighting this. He is a goon...and yes, a child.
Excellent breakdown as always but man isn't this what watching film is for? The entire coaching staff not just Doc should be able to see every single mistake that coach Nick explained, so why arent they doing this too????
Bro, just run Horns action with Brook popping, Giannis diving & Dame making the read. Have T.P & Bobby in the corners.
The Bucks raised this child, they are to blame
To be fair to Doc, who has it harder than Doc, man? He's always put in a position to fail with bad teams or tough situations, if not both. It's simply not fair to expect him to succeed when he's always being set up to fail. Maybe next team that gives him a coaching job will have a winning roster and won't ask him to take over midseason before a brutal stretch.
Bucks are losing because of Awful Coaching
That elbow was vicious. So dirty.
Great breakdown
It's Doc Rivers. Giannis and Dame have issues, but rarely have I seen a championship caliber team fail basic defensive principles and discombobulated offensive sets. Start a petition, open a lawsuit, protest in the streets-Doc gotta go
Thanks for calling it out coach, Giannis is a dirty player.
I'd love to see Giannis in Charlotte with LaMelo ...will never happen but that combo would be crazy
Another issue is that docs teams famously practice less than others, even by todays standards
Respectfully, no clue how Doc Rivers has had such a long coaching career… I don’t understand how front offices time and time again make bad coaching hires like Bucks and Doc and Lakers and Darvin Ham. I feel like I make better FO decisions in 2K MyGM… 🤦🏼♂️
Stagnant offense is such a Darvin Ham move
Giannis play style gets so old and annoying to watch sometimes
I wish bucks take kuminfa, moody, draymond for giannis, actually no cause he don't like setting pick and that defeats a one two curry punch happening, also dray defense is just tough to lose
No team can overcome having Doc & Ham Sandwich as a coach.
Don't worry. I'm sure if Darvin Ham convinces Rivers to give Taurean Prince more minutes all their problems will be solved.
They have great pieces. The coaching staff just have to know how to use them.
LOL, coach has been hating on Giannis and the bucks since coach bud's days. You can hear him how savage it comes off and the enjoyment coming out of him when he calls Giannis post ups mediocre at best. Not being a bucks fan, I just find it entertaining.
So when ur team loses alot u start tryna injure players on purpose that's not cool
The Tatum sprain is concerning. That needs to be banned. The nets example is not Giannis being dirty. It’s rebounding.
Bucks fans have been a captive audience for Giannis' fullback style of play for so long they've become convinced it's just normal basketball. And when you look at how dirty some teams like the Heat play defense, I've started to wonder if it isn't just a forced adaptation to how Giannis plays offense. The East is so annoying to play in because even though the competition is lower than the West, there's more of a injury risk to get through them because they're just not even trying to follow the rules.
Sorry coach, but I gotta disagree that that's a "clear flagrant foul" on giannis at 1:55 . Yes tatum lands on his foot, but giannis's foot is well behind the 3 point line, not anywhere near to where jayson took off from. I get you have to give the shooter landing space, but how far does it go before you can't even contest a jump shot. His leg is not sticking out at all, much different to what we used to see with Zaza Pachulia, where his leg would be pushed out far from his body and under the defenders feet.
Doc Rivers' coaching has turned Giannis into a goon
1) Giannis is a child
2) He is better than any player on the Celtics
3) He gets fouled way more than any fouls he dishes out
4) Doc Rivers is the reason the Bucks are struggling this season
He was at least partially responsible for getting Budenholzer sacked, although Bud did not help himself, but Giannis was whining like a child.
Now they have Doc Rivers.
He is the new Lebron James.
I get you want a new coach but why Doc? And before you had griffin who is better
Giannis should join the UFC the way he's throwing them bows
Doc is trying to make Giannis play like Kevin Garnett
Giannis is a cornball
Giannis unguarded because of his size, strength, length, athleticism the only team that can limit/contain him is the miami heat
This all seems normal. If you replace Jrue Holiday with Doc Rivers, this is what you expect.
