Another really good statline from him in a loss without Dame Lillard. Will the Bucks turn it around soon? It's been a slow start for them.

It's flying a bit under the radar nationally, but the Bucks have one of the worst coaching situations in the league right now. They're not without problems elsewhere (shaky perimeter D, Middleton and Dame missing time), but the defense and rebounding have collapsed under Griffin.

They're trying to play a heavy ball pressure scheme that's both generally ineffective, and also a terrible fit for the personnel. Add in baffling rotations, and an inability or unwillingness to hand Dame the keys on offense, and you have a team playing significantly worse than the sum of its parts.
