    Sure is. I don't understand how his record doesn't speak for itself. Sure, one championship, but that was when he had KG, Paul and Allen at their peak.

    I don't get it, but whatever.

    They have a trigger happy owner group, that should be crystal clear.

    We have 'Wake up, Stone', they have, Please do not wake up, Front Office. 'Go to bed.'

    Lol, when the news "broke" last night, Bucks fans hated it while opponents cheered it on. Management should've taken it as a sign to reconsider, but the mad lads still went through with it.

    This will be interesting to say the least
    how many years does Doc get?
    If they don't win in 2 ~3 yrs. . .. Dame's window maybe closing

    I suspect tensions between executives and Griffin......it is never that easy.

    And super insecure, too. Still can't believe some of the **** he talked back when he was competing with Harden for MVP... and everyone just ignored it because of how much they hated Harden and Giannis was the new media darling.

    One guy wrote Giannis backed Griffin because he was the alternative to Nick Nurse, who Giannis specifically did NOT want. Take that for whatever it is or isn't worth.

    The rationale for hiring doesn't matter. Cavs were rolling with the best record in the NBA and jettisoned their coach. The Bucks have exhibited serious dysfunction this season despite their record. If it's true the players had lost respect for Griffin's schemes on offense and defense, they had to fire him because they can't afford to waste the season with the roster they have.

    The selective outrage on this and other forums makes me laugh sometimes.

    James Harden is the biggest saboteur in nba history. We have plenty of evidence backing this if you want to go there

    It depends what your definition of saboteur is. For me, it's someone who purposely sabotages. I don't think Harden melts down on purpose. He either chokes on his own or someone messes with his head before big games.
