In this week’s Tuesday Tracker, we asked you about team direction, rumors that the Bucks are looking to buy, and engaged in some blame placement. Here are the highlights:
Voters generally favor staying the course right now and either trying for the playoffs or at least waiting until January to decide, with only 23% thinking Milwaukee should start tanking now.
Fans polled are currently split on whether making a trade for star talent will placate Giannis: 54% believe it will convince Giannis to remain a Buck for at least the rest of the season, while 46% think it will make no difference.
Looking back on the past three seasons, 64% of respondents blame coaching moves—most of whom believe hiring Adrian Griffin or Doc Rivers was the biggest mistake—for the franchise’s problems, though 32% blame it on the Damian Lillard trade.
When considering the higher-ups’ decision-making, GM Jon Horst (38%) and co-owner Jimmy Haslam (39%) are drawing a nearly equal share of the blame.
Doc Rivers’ approval rating dropped from 7% to 4% this week, with 87% disapproval. Horst’s sunk about 6% while his disapproval rating climbed the same amount.
Thanks again for voting! Check back on Tuesday for another slate of questions.
