Milwaukee Bucks just decided to fire their coach Adrian Griffin. Despite the Michigan team's record of 34 wins and 13 losses, the defensive disaster coupled with the bad feeling between the coach and Giannis Antetokounmpo since the beginning of the season have made him leave. Joe Prunty, his assistant, would be the interim coach according to Adrian Wojnarowski. Doc Rivers is rumored to replace him.

Despite the exciting arrival of Damian Lillard at the beginning of the season, at no time has the team given the feeling of being ready to compete in the playoffs because of its defensive inconsistency and the need to go to 130-140 points a night to win games. The first bad sign at the beginning of the year was the departure of Terry Stotts, who arrived to lead the possible adaptation of Damian Lillard, who is contributing on offense, but who has not been able to get along with Anteto. Despite the victories, this dismissal is not entirely surprising.
