UNBELIEVABLE: The Milwaukee Bucks season hits a new low after a 45-point blow out loss in Brooklyn

UNBELIEVABLE: The Milwaukee Bucks season hits a new low after a 45-point blow out loss in Brooklyn

You know, there was a lot of talk after that Boston game from the Bucks like, “Hey, this game don’t even matter if we come out against Boston and we lay an egg.” Well, point me to the nearest direction of some chickens because an egg was laid, a huge egg was laid in Brooklyn, blown out by the nets.

If you’re a Wisconsin sports fan, that Packers game, we go from that Packers game to losing Micah Parsons to the Christian Watson injury. Everything feels bleak to watching the Milwaukee Bucks perform like the way that they did in Brooklyn. Same issues, different game. On today’s show, we’re going to highlight those said issues. We’re gonna hear from Doc Rivers, hear from Kyle Kosma, hear from Kevin Porter Jr. on some thoughts they had from this game. We’re going to take a look ahead for what the Bucks have in front of them. And technically, why everything isn’t lost, but why my eyes are telling me, man, it’s feeling dark already. But we’re gonna start with why this game was so disappointing. because it was disappointing on a few different levels, right? I mentioned in the cold open after the Bucks beat Boston, which was a big win for this game, for this team. I wouldn’t even say it was a good win. Like, it wasn’t a win that was done in a way that was sustainable, but it was a necessary win. Like, it was a win that the Bucks had to have and it was against good comp without Giannis, without AJ Green. We know they didn’t have Torian Prince. So, like that’s that’s a win you look back to, you’re like, we can get down with that. But after the game, I loved what Kyle Kosma said after Boston. Like when they had beat uh Detroit, the locker room was like geeked up. But I mean, there was a reason for that, right? They had lost Giannis in that game and then they came back and found a way to win. After they beat the Celtics, you didn’t have that same like jubilant energy in the locker room. Kyle Koosma said after Boston, we got to do it again. This all does not mean anything. If we come out soft in this next game, if we come out not playing hard, then we’re two steps back. Got to be aggressive on both ends. What did they do tonight, y’all? What did they do? They came out soft in the next game. They came out not playing. They took two steps back. We have hit a new low in this season for the Milwaukee Bucks in a season where we saw them lose what was it? Seven games in a row. Yes, seven games in a row where they started eight and six and next thing you knew they were eight and 12. They were eight and 12. Next thing you knew. But we’ve hit a new low. I want y’all to hear from Kyle Koosma a little bit more after this game about this new low that they have just now hit. Is it like the low point of the season? Like a 45 point? No question. Oh, absolutely. 45 points to a team that’s trying to lose. 40, you know, they got four wins, five wins, whatever it is now. No disrespect at all cuz, you know, that’s the beauty of this league, right? Uh there’s so much talent and you know, if you if you’re not ready, you can get your butt whooped by any team, right? And uh we are proof of that tonight. Sure were. Sure were. a lot of proof of that tonight. And it’s so disappointing because it’s like y’all have not won back-to-back games since the end of October when the Bucks hit that 4 in one record when I was on here smiling and and rubbing my hands together and being like, “Man, what a fun Bucks team.” They haven’t won back-to-back games since then. They have gone seven and 15 since the 4-1 start including that losing streak that they had and they now sit 11 and 16 on the season. How do you know right that you got to stack wins because you can see where you are in the conference. you can see where you are in the standings and then you go to Brooklyn and you act you come out like this against the Nets and and then what happens because you come out with such a a a poor effort with such poor execution. You lose to the Nets. You lose a wireto-wire game to the Nets. The Bucks did not lead, not one time in this game against Brooklyn. Brooklyn had only won six games heading into tonight’s game against the Bucks. Now, heading into the game, the Nets had won three of their last four, which is now they have won four of their last five because they’re now seven and 18 after beating the Bucks for their seventh win. They lost by 45 points. The Bucks lost by 45 points. I didn’t say they lost by four to five points. Like I forgot the score. They lost by 45 points. One less than 46. One more than 40 fo. They lost by that much. That’s a win for Brooklyn. That’s historic. That tied a franchise record for largest margin of victory. The Brooklyn Nets haven’t won a game by 45 points since 1993. They weren’t even in Brooklyn. They were still the New Jersey Nets. It’s been that long since they’ve done something like this. And they do it in a season where it’s a team that’s clearly trying to race up the leaderboard and have the best lottery luck they possibly can. And y’all lost to that team. Now again, any Hey, if you don’t come ready to play, you can lose. It is. It is like that in the NBA. But the Nets even had a head coach available. Jordy Fernandez missed the game cuz he was sick. He was sick. Their assistant head coach directed the team to this historic victory. Like what? What? How do you come out with that lack of pride after such a good win, a big win I’ll say, against Boston? Kevin Porter Jr. talked a little bit about this too after the game. And I want y’all to hear what Kevin Porter Jr. said because he says something about how they lost in this game that we have to talk a lot more about. Um, I mean, yeah, it’s a disappointment. Um, especially the way we lost. you know, you’re going to lose in this league, but um we never want to want to lose like that. Um I think like C said, we came out a little lax. Um still probably too confident from the last game and um you know, underestimated how um how this Brooklyn team prepared and we didn’t prepare the right way. We did not prepare the right way is what KPJ just said. We did not prepare the right way. Hm. Is that why we continue seeing some of the same issues pop up for this team? Preparation is something I want to drill down further on because again, this is a game where you saw the Bucks make a lot of the same mistakes that have held them back all season. And I know that they have injuries facing them, but it’s still in how they came out. It’s in the execution. And we’re going to talk a little bit more about that right after this.

I am sick and tired at this point just in life, just in general, right? I am also sick and tired of seeing the exact same issues plague the Milwaukee Bucks over and over and over and over again. I want y’all to hear from Doc Rivers on this game because again, same issues, different game. What’s the problem? That was awful. Awful all around on me cuz I I clearly didn’t get them ready. Um and on us um give Brooklyn credit. They played hard as heck. They moved the ball. Uh they played right. Um we didn’t um we had we gave up 30 points in turnovers. Um not until the beginning of the second half that we actually looked like a basketball team where we started passing the ball, but by then the basketball guys decided you can’t make any open shots now. You don’t deserve it. Um so that was disappointing. probably one of the more disappointing games I’ve ever been involved in um with the way we performed um and competed and we wanted to blame everybody but ourselves. You know, we’re blaming the refs. We’re looking at each other. Uh no one wanted to play hard and you know, um that was we got a lot of soulsearching to do. Y’all tell me who y’all think that’s a problem for. If a team comes out doesn’t feel prepared. If a team comes out not ready to compete. Like, yeah, it’s not all on one entity. There’s there’s shared blame to go around for that, right? Players got it. They the ones on the court to play. But like that screams coaching to me. That screams coaching to me. I am not going to call for anyone’s job, but what I will say is that if the Bucks continue to put together performances like what we saw tonight in Brooklyn, that is like fireball offense. What we saw from the Milwaukee Bucks tonight, not good enough. And the craziest thing about that, they had time before this game. It’s not even like it was a situation where it’s like, oh well, you know, it’s the second night of a backtoback. They got tired legs. Schedule’s been really hectic. They they’ve played five games in seven days. Well, it’s not 1993. We don’t do that no more. You know, they’ve played, you know, three games and in six days and they are just tired and they ain’t got the legs and woo woo woo woo woo. That ain’t this. They had time before this game. The Bucks ain’t played since Thursday. It’s Sunday. Two days coming, two days off coming into this game. Piss poor effort and execution. They have played two games in a week. Wildly different outcomes in those two games, but still only two games within the week. The lack of execution and effort is is not acceptable. It it’s just that’s the baseline of it. Coming into the season, what we thought that Bugs basketball was going to be, fast-paced, lot of threes, pressure defense, rely on depth. The depth part I’ll give you a pass on because you got guys playing roles that are outside for what they were expected to do. I’ll give them that one. But even with the injuries, is this not a team that should be beating the Brooklyn Nets? Is this not a team that you should you shouldn’t look out there on the court and watch these two teams play and be and be confused on which team is the one that’s trying to tank? The Brooklyn Nets should not come out and have more effort than you. The Brooklyn Net should not come out and play harder than you. What’s the preparation like? Like I mentioned, Kevin mentioned it before. I played the clip in the last segment. He did talk more about the preparation. And I found this so interesting. So interesting that I need y’all to hear this, too, because The preparation for this game was wasn’t how we prepare for every game and um it showed I mean we lost by 45 points to bottom two the second bottom team. I mean you know the evidence is there. We just got to do better um coming in the games. Um is that just kind of how you guys you mentioned preparation like how do you get to that spot that you guys didn’t prepare in this? You just got to be professional and um like I said, preparation is non-negotiable in this league. You got to be ready to come out and play. Um it’s the NBA at the end of the day. A lot of teams got great players and um you know, tonight they’re making a lot of shots, but they’re are wide open shots at the end of the day. So, we got to do better as a whole. Got to do better as a whole. I mentioned same issues, different game. When the Bucks tend to lose games, you can point to a few things and normally that’s part of it. The big one for them in this one, the biggest repeat offender in this game for the Bucks, turnovers. Turnovers. They turn the ball over too damn many times in this game. 20 turnovers to the Brooklyn Nets. a Brooklyn Nets team that’s not even in the top half of the league of forcing turnovers. Y’all had 20 turnovers that led to 30 points for the Brooklyn Nets. Even when the Bucks got steals of their own, when the Bucks forced turnovers of their own. Thought they just gave the ball right back to Brooklyn. Right back. Here you go. We don’t want it. Here you go. Take it. The Bucks had as many turnovers in this game, 20 as they did assist. They had 20 assists and 20 turnovers in this game. Unbelievable. Another slow start to this game where it’s like you’re watching, okay, they’re down by, you know, a few head after the first and then it’s like the doors got blown off of them in the second quarter. They tried to bring it back a little bit, but the next thing you know, they’re down by 17 at halftime. The lead grows and grows and grows for Brooklyn from that point. Like not only do like the numbers tell you that they’ve been bad, but like your eyes do too. What you’re are what you are seeing. This is one of the times where all the analytics people, all the quote unquote stat nerds and all that stuff can look at people who talk about hoops and be like, “We in agreement about how this Bucks team look right now.” Not good. Not good. And Kyle Kosma brought up a point that I want y’all to hear. starting out games. It’s um I think that’s a recurring theme throughout the year. Starting out games, sitting the tempo, you know, that’s that’s a huge thing. You know, when you come out, you know, it’s like Mike Tyson, you know, Mike Tyson says, you know, if you come out, you know, everybody has a game plan to get punched in the mouth. So, a lot of times we’re the ones getting punched in the mouth and then we’re the shell shock and then we come out and then we fight. you know, we fighting round seven, round eight, round nine, but it’s too late, you know, and I think that we need to start setting that tone. You know, we have sometimes some games we have, but um not um consistent enough to be a competitive team. You know, when you watch watch the NCE tournament games, right, OKC San Antonio, like was personal. Everything was personal. It was playoff game. Obviously, it’s NC tournament, but you know, they’re in December just like us, right? And um yeah, we got to get our act together. They got to they got to. But I’m so glad that Kyle Kosma brought up the end season games because what we saw in the games the other night with the Spurs against the Thunder, like it looked like a different sport from what the Bucks just put on display against the Brooklyn Nets. Like it can’t be that. Like I said, not only do the numbers tell you that the Bucks have been bad, but your eyes do, too. They do not look like a team that can compete with some of the better teams in the league right now. And I know again injuries are a part. A team without Giannis when the whole thing is constructed around him, it ain’t going to perform well. So like I’m giving them some grace on that. But even with that grace, you can’t lose by 45 points to no dog on Brooklyn Nets. You can’t. You can’t. Every day know me as like the the optimist, right? The positive person. And right now, especially after how that Packer game went, I’m in a I’m in the mood, right? I’m just in the mood. I feel like that I feel like that meme though where it’s like the old couple on the bench and I think it’s like the husband who has an umbrella and he’s holding it over the wife and he’s getting rained on but she’s dry and it’s like just cuz I’m mad does not mean I stop loving you. That’s how I am with the Bucks. Like I love the Milwaukee Bucks. I have loved the Milwaukee Bucks for decades, right? Decades. Yes. Decades. I’m I’m I’m I’m getting old. but for decades. It’s December 14th as I record this. There is still about twothirds of the season to go. The positive thing about this terrible loss, that’s a new low for the Bucks. And I hope this remains the low for the Bucks, is that the season doesn’t end today. Like, we’re a third of the way through, which means they still have about twothirds of the season left to try and turn things around. and we’ll discuss why there is still or should be some hope for this team right after this. Now, y’all know me. I don’t like to to to front. We going to keep it a buck, right? Making excuses don’t solve anything. I ain’t going to make none for the Bucks. I ain’t going to make none here. We’ve heard all them excuses before, too. It’s just stress. I’m tired. It happens to everyone sometimes. But when it comes to performance, sometimes your body needs a little extra support.

Stop making excuses and start making moves. What’s ahead for the Milwaukee Bucks? Depending on where you stand, either you are somebody who was still like, “We got playoff aspirations. It’s all in it’s all in front of us.” Or you’re somebody who’s already looking to the draft because while the Bucks might not control their drafts until 2031, they do have a draft pick in 2026. It’s just it was in the pick swaps. It has, you know, it’s all that good stuff going on with it. It was the pig swap with New Orleans from the Drew Holiday trade initially, right? The Pelicans traded that swap to the Hawks. And what that means is that the Hawks are going to get the pick that is worse between the Pelicans and the Bucks. So, the Bucks got a draft pick. So, some of y’all might be looking at me like, “Hey, my optimism is coming from the fact that we might be able to get a high draft pick.” others optimism might come from we can still make a playoff run. I’m more so talking to you playoff run hopefuls, okay, for the optimism here because if your optimism comes with the uh the draft pick hopes, you’re going to hope for some more losses and that’s not really optimistic in the general sense of things. Unless you’re talking about you know what, I ain’t we ain’t talking to y’all right now. We talking to the to the people in the standings. And here’s the room for optimism, right? The Bulls lost to the Pelicans, ironically enough tonight as well. So the Bulls are the 11 seed in the East right now. Bucks at 11 and 16 are sitting as the 10 seed. With them sitting in the 10 seed, they’re 10 games behind first place. That’s I don’t see the Bucks going on some type of run where they can become first in the East, right? But the point that you really want to kind of take a look at is that four that three four seed, right? You got the Celtics and the three seed right now. They’re 15 and 10. You have the Magic and the Raptors who are both 15 and 11. The Magic are the four seed. The Raptors are the five seed. Bucks 11 to 16. 11- 16. So, you’re five losses behind, you know, the Magic and the Raptors. You’re six losses behind the Celtics at the moment. That’s still very doable, right? with twothirds of the season left to play. There’s still 60some games to go. That’s okay. You’re still within some type of striking distance, right? The flip side to that. So maybe, hey, for you you draft optimist here, I got a little something for you. Um it’s just another side of the optimism for, you know, the people who were hoping for good playoff positioning. Uh the Bucks sitting at that 10 seed. They’re also just five and a half games in front of the Wizards who are 4 and 20. Four and 20. They got 20 losses. Bucks got 16. Again, Bucks got more wins there. So, the math ain’t, you know, all the way there. So, by the the standing numbers, the Bucks are five and a half games in front of the Wizards. So, like again, they remain in this spot in the East where it’s like it’s do or die time. you’re gonna do something with this or you’re gonna continue fumbling and fumbling and fumbling and that rope’s going to continue to get longer and then eventually you’re not going to be in a position where it’s like we can still make something out of this, right? Because the December schedule for the Bucks as we have talked about on locked on Bucks somewhat favorable for the team, right? It’s not as if they are going to have like their January schedule which is actually pretty tough compared to what they have now. now. So, it’s like now is the time to really try and rack up those wins. We’re halfway through the month now. We are halfway through the month of December and the Bucks have so far in December lost to the to the Wizards, beat the Pistons, lost to the Sixers, lost to the Pistons, beat the Celtics, and now have lost to the Brooklyn Nets, meaning they are two and four so far in the month of December. They don’t play again until Thursday. So, they’re going to have some more days off to try to get that preparation right, try to take that look in the mirror for accountability to to try to make sure that they come out and have the proper uh focus to start the game. Right. So, here’s the rest of December for the Bucks, Thursday the 18th against Toronto. And then they go away for a fivegame road trip that takes you through almost the rest of the month. The road trip kicks off in Minnesota on the 21st. Then it’s Indiana on the 23rd, Memphis on the 26th, Chicago on the 27th, Charlotte on the 29th before they come home for a New Year’s Eve game against the Washington Wizards. So again, you can look at the schedule and be like, “Hey, these are all games that are still winnable. The Raptors have been sliding a bit of late. Minnesota is going to be tough. The Pacers haven’t been great, but those games were tough before. Memphis has had some struggle so far this season. Chicago’s been struggling. Charlotte’s bottom of the standings in the East. Washington’s bottom of the stand. Like, the games are winnable, right? They’re there. But it’s like, what have the Bucks done to give you hope that they can actually go out and do it? That’s where I’m currently at. I want to have the hope and I can look at that logically and be like, hey, all is not gone. You know what I mean? Like, it’s still in front of them. But they have to start showing me something. They have to. Otherwise, it’s going to be what it’s been so far, which is a lot of talk. A lot of talk, a lot of repeating the same things, a lot of the same problems. Oh, it’s turnovers. Oh, it’s the slow start. Oh, we foul too much. Oh, we didn’t rebound. Oh, all the things. they cannot be things anymore because if they continue to be things, especially from preparation, especially from execution, like I mentioned, those are things that can be considerable fireball offenses. Now, I don’t know if that’s something that’ll please Giannis in the general scheme of things. And with all of this happening and getting blown out by the Nets, you can bet your bottom dollar that all the noise around the Giannis trade stuff is going to continue to to get louder. I’m curious to see what noise continues to get louder about what the Bucks might be looking to do themselves in the deadline. If they keep Giannis, how can you improve this team? Is it switching coaches? Is there a trade out there? December 15th, we got a lot of deals on the table now that are tradable. All of those offseason free agent signings, those contracts are tradable December 15th. What can Horse do? How can this team be better? They got to find it. They got to dig down for them answers. Then again, they’re going to have some time before their next game. They don’t play again till Thursday. We’re going to have some time on lockdown on Bucks to really dig through how the first third of the season has gone for the Bucks to really explore. Are there any free agent or not free agent targets, are there any trade targets that make sense that can make this team make sense? Because let me tell you, there is so much smoke around the name of Zack Lavine in Milwaukee. That makes no sense to me. Offense is not the biggest problem for this Milwaukee Bucks team. Defense is rebounding is one of the biggest problems. Wing size is one of the biggest problems for this team. And getting a 65 Zack Lab does not play a lot of defense does not solve those problems. So again, what you going to do Milwaukee? Like what are you going to do? It’s a it’s a crucial time period right now outside of all the Giannis noise. It’s a crucial point in your season right now. Something has to be made of it. Something has to be made of it. But appreciate you for tuning in to Locked On Bucks, making us your first listen of the day.
