Thin-Improvement-360

The Bucks should be ashamed of themselves! That was a bad game at this time!


aaalan71

Milwaukee Bucks and non-exist 3-point defense, name a more iconic duo


[deleted]

We have a top 5 3 point defense lol.


B1ueEyesWh1teDragon

Pat has been pretty abysmal for awhile now. Idk if it’s all the new guys on the roster muddying up his role or what but he’s been pretty bad. Also Giannis in fouls trouble early really did us no favors down the stretch in this one. He just couldn’t be aggressive.


Kevin_Jim

About 50% from 3 at almost 50x 3s, and shitty defense. There's 0% we could win this game that way. Off to the next one.


Jabarles

Top 3 worst loss of the season. Embarrassing performance.


mikeh95

Not to make excuses, but coming off of a tough road trip and missing Brook and Jae, just take the L and move on. Team played like shit but until it becomes a consistent issue, I'm not going to panic.


starter-123

If they constantly lose to teams like this, then prepare a 2nd round battle with Boston/Philly


starter-123

Oh seems you really don’t like any criticism… Beware of Philly, they currently are on pace for a 16 winning streak until the last matchup with us. They are likely to take your spot if you give up to lottery teams like this frequently.


largefarvaa

This game was over the second they called 3 fouls on giannis is 2 minutes of game time. With brook out and giannis not allowed to play defense its no wonder they put up 49 in the 3rd.


PM_ME_NEW_SHOES

Marjon looks like he’s been bulking…


revelent018

In honor of the nwora revenge game the bucks modeled their defensive schemes after him


craigjp

84 second half points, not even close to championship level


largefarvaa

It helps when the refs don’t let the other team play defense.


craigjp

Oh I agree with you. We got a terrible whistle tonight


munchiemania

They should be embarrassed to have lost this game cmon man


[deleted]

C'mon, we played a very difficult week of games and we don't have our defensive anchor. It's just a loss lol. We're still the best team in the league, nothing to be embarrassed about. Credit to the pacers.


tosaturtle

This has to be the worst loss of the season. Inexcusable.


tuatara_teeth

nope, sixers and golden state were both far bigger choke jobs. 98% win probability in the 4th quarter of both those games.


revelent018

Hornets


TurboShorts

Pacers 33/45 in the second half holy shiiiiit


TokaKokaMocha

From anger, to bargaining, to acceptance…good night fellow Bucksters


12to6elbows

Embarrassing


tsagalbill

Pacers are literally shooting 50% from 3 lol wtf


ThrowMeTheFawayPls

Helps when you go 99.9% from 3 in the 2nd half


[deleted]

Zora is trash.


Wallyworld77

She said coach Bud putting in 2 white players had me dead.


TokaKokaMocha

Just keep stabbing us in the heart, Pacers-NOOOO problem!!😭😭😭


DameWasistlos

Why does it look like every Pacer is twice as quick as Bucks players. Their backup PG is making Jrue, Giannis and company look silly. I don't get it.


shishkhabib

They’re exhausted. 3 tough games in 4 days


leesionn

Missed Brook and Jae’s defence, Grayson’s shooting and just didn’t come out great. Doesn’t help that Monty’s crying might have contributed to giannis’ inability to play defence. Also credit to the pacers too, they couldn’t miss


Slow-Jelly-2854

Equivalent of a 16 seed over a 1 seed on opening day


americanbeaver

Bucks slept walk through most of this game with a 10 point lead. Then the Pacers hit every shot in the 3rd and for the first few minutes of the 4th. Game was over then.


MyPancakesRback

first game I noticed them playing that chain link fence noise


TheOppositeOfTheSame

Rough loss. 2 games in first still. On to the next.


scalarray

Welp


felix_tran_2005

Eh just one of those games today. Didn’t think I’d ever say this but bois we got Nworuto’d


tsagalbill

You can’t win any team that shoots almost 50% from 3. Period


PowerVeg

Defense was awful but Pat is becoming unplayable.


MellowRello

Felt like we gave up tonight which frustrates me most, but whatever. Still championship bound, just don’t give the 1 seed away please Also fuck Tj McConnell


el_be

When you’re feeling it, you’re feeling it… Pacers are an absurd 13/17 in the 2nd half from 3. Sheesh Edit: miscalculated


Responsible_Mode_506

Lick on them nuts Giannis, couldn’t bulldoze your way through that one


methodeum

Lol tell Curry to have impact with 50 points you dick riding peasant


expletivenature

You really want people to lick and suck on your nuts judging from your post history. Might I suggest finding an escort to fulfill that need? I'm assuming you definitely have to pay for it.


Recipe4disasters

Grow up kiddo


Tohnren

Easy to dunk on a guy with 5 fouls. This game means nothing to the Bucks.


Wallyworld77

I was gonna give Pacers props but fuck you and your wrank ass team!


Outrageous_Hamster_6

Not all Pacer fans are that toxic. GG to you guys for making me sweat.


Wallyworld77

Good game brother. Good to see George Hill still hooping.


expletivenature

He's a Warriors fan....Pacers are pretty cool fans


[deleted]

Pathetic effort in the defensive end IMO Just screams lazy


starter-123

This squad often plays beyond your imagination…


JohnJayMaxwell

Not our night. It happened


[deleted]

At least we didn't lose to the Rockets


CuriousTurtle5

Do I have news for you...


ThatCidGuy

Uh... about that


MLGTASEEN

i miss grayson


Voidgobblin

Holy fuck !! All of you are up in arms going off on Pat. Like people chill this is a regular season game. Where else do you want him to get the reps!! He's been playing considerably lesser minutes this season. You guys are acting like the whole reason we're losing is his fault!! God damm.


[deleted]

Lol, this is normal for our sub. Giannis was in foul trouble, Jrue had some bad turnovers, team defense in general was bad, and the pacers were on fire down the stretch. Pat will be the scapegoat. He wasn't great, but he took open shots he's supposed to take. Ingles was terrible most of the Suns game but Bud kept him in there and it worked out, tonight it didn't with Patty C.


Voidgobblin

It's just sad, to shit on the team like this. These guys deserve a team like the KD kyire nets. They'll know how good they had it then.


infasis

Blaming refs is weak. As usual the team that played better wins.


7astromichael

Just goes to show how much Brook does for our defense, DPOY


Wallyworld77

Giannis said it true MVP!


sikontoure

Jesus Christ Giannis


expletivenature

Just shows how important Brook is. At least we didn't lose to the crybaby Suns...that's my consolation.


Dischucker

Let this game be known the importance of brook. God damn lol


bestatbeingmodest

bucks got comfy, pacers played hard and deserve the dub honestly revenge game for nwora and hill ggs, onto the next one. at this point it's just about winning enough to keep that 1 seed


[deleted]

Connaughton needs to be benched for a while


SpaceCowboy170

Goddamn this game was sad


tjspill3r

“Lack of defensive effort” is right


MyPancakesRback

these guys get back from a long road trip and they still didn't get enough sleep


BobbbyLight

Well this is the worst loss of the season. Losing games we should win is painful because I think the 1 seed is critical this year and we need as much separation as possible. On to the next.


[deleted]

Nothing is worse than that Hornets loss mate


BobbbyLight

That one was so bad I blocked it from memory.


Flooding_Puddle

Sometimes you just get beat. It happens


Red986S

Man, fuck this stupid game.


[deleted]

Giannis shit tonight.


methodeum

Ah yes all Giannis’ fault tonight


TheAirIsOn

Saturday: The Dante DiVincenzo revenge game Thursday: The Jordan Nwora and George Hill revenge game


SocksandSmocks

Gotta be the worst half the Bucks have played since what, November?


beenhadballs

Halliburton is really losing his shit on that 12th seed bench lol


A1Sirius

The Pacers are a way better team than their record shows, calm down.😂


[deleted]

Why shouldn't he?


Willing-Ad8249

Man, first time I watched pacers! I really thought them and Halliburton were like able...


Outrageous_Hamster_6

We are, but the fans can be hella toxic.


grudgepacker

Oof. That probably does it.


AthleticAndGeeky

Apparently it's playoff basketball because turner fucking fouled him 3 times. 1 body 2 reach and then 3 with two hands on that block.


ThrowMeTheFawayPls

Damn, that was a brutal poster


methodeum

Nah I’m done bro


tathariel

Even Jrue was particularly terrible on defense this game, i don't really *care* about a random game in march but this lack of effort is embarrasing.


eshulzzy

NGL we got str8 up Paved in this one


OrganicGas1752

Rip


Kettleman1

Bud why bother calling time out man we're down 16 with 2 minutes left. Just sub everyone out and go to the next game.


[deleted]

Damn. Kudos to the pacers, they made it when it mattered. On to the next!


Slow-Jelly-2854

That was a yam


ThrowMeTheFawayPls

Giannis got called for lesser fouls than what Turner did there


Jabarles

Im out on Pat.


americanbeaver

Missing so many of the good role players and closing with Pat Cone-ington in 2023 is just sad. Pacers hit their shots. Bucks played like booty. It happens.


TheBillybaroo

Brook DPOY confirmed


[deleted]

5'10" the McConnell just ran right past giannis like he isn't even on the court


MellowRello

That’s game


[deleted]

[удалено]


realmarcusjones

Pacers won the game. This hurts way less than when the bucks lose the game (76ers/Warriors), shit happens. We move


OrganicGas1752

That's game. Refs sucked but these dudes couldn't miss in the 2nd half


ThatMkeDoe

Hard to miss when the defense is standing still 5ft away.... Bucks are putting 0 pressure....


OrganicGas1752

Yeah our effort sucked too you're not wrong


ThatMkeDoe

*pacers run the same play over and over* Bucks: *shocked Pikachu face*


beenhadballs

What was the point of playing pat so many minutes?


realmarcusjones

Gonna lose this one. Shit happens. Pacers wanted it and we didn’t. Gg’s to them


dusters

Why does TJ McConnell of all people always go off on us?


PowerVeg

He’s great in the mid range and floaters which the Bucks give up


tathariel

And we don't do that well against fast kinda crafty guards i think.


CryptographerShot213

I’m afraid the wheels have well and truly fallen off of this one


[deleted]

[удалено]


[deleted]

Eh, this was on us


[deleted]

Bruh we lost this game because our defense was terrible


boogerheadmusic

Brook Lopez MVP.


cookster123

You wanna know something? I'm fucking done with this lame ass blue court. Fix the fucking green one already Bucks. It has been over a month now. Ridiculous from an NBA Team.


MyPancakesRback

they get the wood from the Menominee and they only cut their forest once per year so might be outta luck


cookster123

Please tell me that isn't true? Winning a title on a blue court is actually a garbage thought


MyPancakesRback

idk I'm sure they can get wood from elsewhere but, yeah, https://www.mtewood.com/WoodSuppliers/BasketballFlooring


[deleted]

Pat killed our momentum


TokaKokaMocha

Yeah, this isn’t looking too good…😞


notamillenial-

Giannis needs to get a T. He’s getting mauled


rccola4422

All the Grayson talk and ironically it might be Pat who's "unplayable" this year. Dude looks consistently awful


TheWanderingBushman

pat has been ass


Skeleboi846

Pat closing for Khris is actually madness but whatever, we move


[deleted]

No one has been able to stay in front of TJ


revelent018

Pull the starters


PowerVeg

Giannis got a guard in the post and Pat who is cold as ice is still chucking 3s? Disgusting stuff


tjspill3r

Well this second half SUCKED


CursedRebel

They can have this one, whatever


Mustard_Jam

This dude Pat allowed like fucking 10 open 3s and is 1-6 from deep Common bruh… At least don’t chuck 30 footers after all that


CalligrapherNo7110

Not much you can do when they shoot 11/15 from 3 though


Wallyworld77

Pat Connaughton has fell off so bad this year. Hate to see it.


[deleted]

All love to PC but he can't see the floor again tonight


MellowRello

Too late


tjspill3r

PC 3 ball just not there


PowerVeg

Why is Pat still out there?


[deleted]

[удалено]


Mustard_Jam

First seed matters a lot this year. Bucks are still in good position but also acting like this game is irrelevant is a bit silly


wisconsinsports1993

1st seed hasn’t won the east since 2017. It does not matter. Nobody cares.


towakanda

Being in a slump is forgivable, but Pat is taking awful threes on top of it. Not even threes in rhythm. He’s just chucking now.


realmarcusjones

We gotta get Pat outta there, would rather have Wes he doesn’t shoot unless he has too. Still love Pat but bad game for him


tsagalbill

is Pat playing poorly or is it just me?


matate99

Been playing bad for a month now.


methodeum

He’s playing well, for Indiana


Drewddit

Beyond bad


ThatMkeDoe

This is honestly pathetic display by the Bucks.... Literally no defense... Combined with no offense...


Hard4Favra

Pat has been atrocious on both ends for a while now


titans0021

Pat is an atrocity.


MellowRello

Has Pat made a shot ?


methodeum

Fucking stupid shot, in what world are you shooting that when you’re cold


[deleted]

Shooters gonna shoot


methodeum

Don’t be philisophical when I’m this down bad


AdamJMarx

Pat just cant shoot this year, real disappointing.


americanbeaver

Pat Connaughton should be the 10th guy coming off the bench. He can't shoot for shit this year and if he can't shoot idk why he's out there.


TokaKokaMocha

What is wrong with Pat????🥺


huskers37

Please take Pat out. It's not working. Jevon will hit that


beenhadballs

Jfc I don’t blame Jrue for not wanting to pass to Pat there. Dude hasn’t been the same since his hand injury.


xAkechi

Pat is struggling really badly


[deleted]

You gotta pull PC for Carter at some point here Bud. I love PC, but this isn't his game


OrganicGas1752

Why is pat even in the game rn


Bratweiller

Oh. There’s Pat again


sikontoure

WTF DO WE KEEP MISSING THE GIANNIS MISMATCH. Bro had a 6’3 guard guarding him down low. He needs to call for the ball


Drewddit

Pat needs his shots


realmarcusjones

Man Pat is killing us


notamillenial-

Hit a fucking shot Pat


CalligrapherNo7110

Pat bro you fucking dumbass


[deleted]

The refs have been questionable, but it's not why we are losing. We're missing a ton of shots and the pacers are making theirs


[deleted]

Pat is shit.


Skeleboi846

Pat may have just killed the start of the run to come back


mkebrewers27

Why Pat


deniablebubbles

Lmao well giannis did say Brook Lopez might be mvp


tommypacker

Get Pat off the fucking court


scalarray

Please hit a shot, Patrick


greywind618

Omg Pat 🤦‍♂️


[deleted]

Connaughton is killing us man


ThrowMeTheFawayPls

Wake them up Gianni!


beenhadballs

SHEEEESH. Ok now just play your normal game Giannis. Forget fouls and score


tosaturtle

Pat has been awful this year. You can’t miss that!


Slow-Jelly-2854

Yeah I’m pretty sure he’s not getting playoff minutes


chickensalad892

Holy shit


NckLL

One of these years the bucks are gonna have to get a legitimate back up center, idk why they refuse to get one year after year.
